In Chicago, as in a great many cities and towns of the Union, can be found those who are practising Christian Science or mental healing. They have graduated regularly from the Massachusetts Metaphysical College, (which has a charter from the state, and can show certificates to that effect).

Charity which cometh from divine Love is the "bond of perfectness. " Faith has been called the "bond of union" in the church; but it has divided it instead of uniting.

That health and morals are alike conditions of mind many an experience today will bear testimony, and as the fact is becoming more apparent thought stirs itself to a general inquiry. The Scriptures declare we have been all our life-time subject to bondage through fear of death.

"All the world's a stage And all the men and women merely players. " Nothing opens up this truism like practical metaphysics.

Existing systems of cure, in high favor with the clergy and dominant faculty, hold haughtily against this our invading method fortified by divine science; but, step by step, they retire. It is pitiful and amusing, at the same time rejoicing to the thoughtful in our blessed cause, to watch the masterly tactics of the retreating generals of old Conservatism.

Christian Science was first introduced by Jesus: he explained and demonstrated it, healing the sick and triumphing over sin and death. His works were based on a divine Principle that he understood and could teach, and they can be demonstrated on no other basis.

High hearts are never long without hearing some new call, some distant clarion of God, even in their dreams: and soon they are observed to break up the camp of ease, and start on some fresh march of faithful service. And, looking higher still, we find those who never wait till their moral work accumulates, and who reward resolution with no rest; with whom, therefore, the alteration is instantaneous and constant: who do the good only to see the better, and see the better only to achieve it; who are too meek for transport, too faithful for remorse, too earnest for repose; whose worship is action, and whose action ceaseless aspiration.

I was in the class room: a hundred young girls sat there listening. It was a question-and-answer class.

Under the above caption, I wrote up the results of a long and truthful investigation of the "phenomenon" of Clairvoyance, Mesmerism, Magnetism, etc. I copyrighted the matter in a book of 800 pp.
