Healing by Faith [Is Pure Science, | S|>eaker Claims (^•ihoflox Paptort Do Not ■Carry Christianity Far ^ Enough, Says John J. Flynn. whe logical haul* of Christian Sci wan ePipimsized by John J. fynn, a member of the board of lee ttp-cship of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, of Boston, Mass., in at address Friday evening at the First. Church of Christ, Scientist. * 'll is address, in pa rt, follow s: Christian Scu'nch makes no conres *l|«n to error in any of its phases, ftjims, or manifestations. It does not a^nlt tha reality of evil. It reoog nyes no powrer In the universe hut G*l. good. In the midst of doubt, afciet.v, alarm, fear, want of confi dence in churrh or pulpit leadership. Christian Srience holds steadfastly to the conviction, that since man is God s child, the reflection and image atjd likeness of God, he cannot he sey*rated from his creator, deprived o£ ilia spiritual inheritance by any h^man Belief, used as a football by ely nee, subjected to material muta tiflfi, or rendered helpless in the pres erve of sin, sickness, discord, disease or, death. Jphrlstian Science is not at all a blind belief. It Is not a theological experiment, not a conjectural creed. 3t/is not based upon legendry, tradi tion superstltution, or fear of future P«4j)ishment; it is a demonstrable faith tl{it proves with mathematical clear n efcs and certainty, to capable and lmnest Investigators, its claim as a sefence. I nrierstnriding of (iod. Christian Science ia an understand ing of infinite intelligence, and of man's relationship to the Supreme Being, omnipresent, omniscient, and omnipotent divine Mind. It is an ap prehension and understanding nf Hod which admits of no limitation, ques tiop, nor douht with regard to His ell seeing wisdom, His all inclusive power, His all-embracing Love. It is living the conviction that God made everything that was made; that He made everything good; that all of His creations reflect him, and, there fore, that nothing unlike Him, infin ite good, can he real. It is an abso lute acknowledgement and a positive assertion, supported by living truth, thjjt the God of the Bible—our God— governs and controls the universe aibj»all that it contains, visible and in visible. Including man, and that there is none other_ beside Him. tf is always difficult, sometimes im pAeibie, to follow the arguments of tlrtSse good Christian people who feel it jjfi) be their duty to attack Christian S<J&*nre, or to follow the reasoning upon which their arguments are hatred. {Trill h admits of no conditional ex pcession nor acceptance. That which i\jS*br.ost, or nearly, nr partly true, Is n*ft- triie„ Christian Science is truth, thjfyvhole truth, and nothing hut the t'•fcti' Here It takes its stand. It "ijfers ]onse thinking, loose reasoning arifi loose talking; it is in as little need nf-.Jatronizing commendation as It is offcpationizing apology. Inasmuch as it Ms based upon divine principle, netting short of admission of Its ab solute truth will satisfy. This is why it is so frequently called upon to cor rect well meaning hut mistaken re marks by those who think they are speaking kindly of it. y Tile .Medical At tit title. Ifake. for instance, statements of niMy doctors of divinity and many dJuors of medicine, than whom, as a j rtw£» there are no more conscientious men in the world. It is no uncom mon thing to have them concede a giWfit deal to Christian Science. Some of'{hem go so far as to admit openly that Christian Science has real merit otfifrs, that its right to recognition as*at protective and* healing agency h^aCheen established; others recall in st&'ces, occurring among their fiWJtds, even in their own families wjtdre Chrisflan Science has brought about physical, mental, moral and epftdtual results of a remarkable na tore; atill others sdvise certain off thjdr patients, whose casea have re acted medical treatment, to ’’try Christian Science.’* »«re are pastor# of orthodox elftirrhe# and practitioners of medi cii^, pot a thousand miles from hers, "'Ptt frankly tell those sitting under tfpSht in church, and those who visit tiiiewi for sdvlce, that what people ptfhd Is more Christian Science in their djily lives. Yet, nearly always these si5*>owledgementa sre made and t£#se indorsements are voiced with sfWJe qualification. Christian Silence Is* ® 11 right, they say, when it does not go too far. They would not like tighe caught Mjring that mathematical alienee is all right when Its practice lsj»£pt carried to excess. Christ Not rwiowea. ytotir thousand years of material IsUr training In the medical calling „ kht account somewhat for the M lljbornness with which doctors ring to materia medlca; but !,D0l> y |ra of training In Christianity, the j.t wider of which never used a drug il Stealing, should b« sufficient, one lipid think, to have weaned the r|er gi ;*from the pharmacopoeia and it* T,j adence upon the prescription tah ]<j d Tt is a deplorable fact. Hint minis im of the orthodox churches, or daffned to practice the Christian faith, etpp far short of doing so, in that i&ty neglect or ignore the Injunction dCthe Master to hi* disciples and to «5*.who should follow In Ills footsteps tg hea| the sick; and It Is even mors djhforable that, falling In tha observ sS*e and performance of a plain duly Igpiuselvea, they <|ueallon and at tt^npt to belittle the demnnstrationa o?’ those whri, through full ohserv / an.ce of the commands of Christ. -Ie aus, actually repeat In very large and growing measure his marvelous work s. ,lt must never >>* forgotten that (Christian Science Is engaged first and !a£t aud all the time, In the task of restoring to tha world the Word and cjp)t|nulng Ihe work of Christ -lesns tjjjat Its highest mission and It* great eilt Joy Is to labor unceHsInglv foi tis) bringing bark of primitive Chris tlsnity In all Ita purity, simplicity, and grandeur, and to reestablish. In s world sorely in need of it, thst as aurance of present day saltation from •itor and Ita consequences which the promised to sll who would keep hie ro’mmandmenls, “Healing In Heart.” He came with healing in hla thought, with healing In hia voles, with healing In hla touch—with heal ing In his heart-and he went about everywhere doing good, yet sorrowing In his labor of love over the ignor ance and perversity of men. Now. aa In hla day, the Word through Chrls tlon Science Is healing all manner of disease and all manner of discord, yet .Christian Scientists know that, sa In Jesus' day, the healing of physical ailments Is a means, rather than an end. Because of the stiffness of their necks and the rebelliousness of their will, in our times as was the case 20 centuries ago^ the great majority of human beings must be impressed by some tangible evidence, suitable to their understanding, T>f the all im portant part which spiritual law plays in regulating their lives, their affairs, occupations, and circum slaiifcs: In determining the success of their careers, in solving their mi nor as well as their major problems. Only I hits are they brought to recog nition of the ever-pt rsenre of fiori, and to a realization of the fact that the paramount mission of Christian Science is not the healing of sick ness and disease, but the destruction of Ignorance, fear and sin. which lie at the root of all human sorrow and suffering.

Yon can stop them now with Creomulsion, an emulsified creosote that is pleasant to take. Creomulsion is a new medical discovery with twofold action; it soothes and heal* the inflamed membranes and kills the germ. Of all known drugs, creosote is rec ognized by the medics! fraternity as the j greatest healing agency for the treat ment of chronic coughs and colds and other forms of throat and lung troubles. Creomulsion contains, in addition to creosote, other healing elements which soothe and heai the inflamed mem branes and atop the irritation and in flammation, while the creosote goes on to the stomach, ia absorbed into th* blood, attacka the seat of the troabla and destroys the germs that lead to consumption. Creomulsion ia guaranteed satisfac tory in the treatment of chronic coughs and colds, bronchial asthma, catarrnal bronchitis and other forms of throat and lung diseases, and ia excellent far building up the system after colds or the flu. Money refunded if any cough or cold, no matter of how long stand ing, is not relieved after taking accord ing to directions. Aik your druggist. Creomulsion Co., Atlanta, Ca. % I) V r.RTISKM bvt7 MRS.
