Indeed, it is only through the teach ing of this Science that we hare found it possible to obey tho . scriptural in in juncteon: "PrayJ without ceasing;" While no ooo can bo continually in tbo physical attltudo of prayer, Bir forever repeating its words or formulae, oho can always bo ia sliest spiritual con mnnion with bis God. Through tho peculiar method of our church service, in which the entire eon- gre'gation is privileged to participate, our people are trsed to eloser and more goaeral stady of the IToly Scrip tures. It wtraM be Impossible to find any eUns of people more- devoted to the Mady of the IMMo than the Chris tian Scientist are, for thoy have learn el to regard it, not so much a history of the past nor a prophecy' of tbo fu ture as a revelation; of eternal Truth, which is "tho-same yesterday, today and forever," and which consequently applies with full ferae to the needs of tbo present timo. So this Science that is religions be cause it la of God, ar,l this religion that is scientific becauso it is founded upon eternal fact. Instead of fancy or blind faith, are welded into one sound and demomtralablo doctrine, whoso Tcrlry is attested1 by "signs follow ing." 'My doctrine is not mine," sold Jesus, "but Ills that sent me. If any man wilt do His will bo shall know of tho doctrine, whuther it bo of God or whether I sneak of myself."

Xow we beiiera Cbrislian Science is a rediscovery of what Je&es taaght and detaoBstrated as lo what God- is aad what God deco.

The osy evidese we have ef Bat ter is the testbaowy of the physical soase, which take so cognizance what ever ef God. All wiH admit that God is Trvth as the Seriptares declare. It ia phuQ that the physical senses do eegalze raatter and all its apparent eaditieB. Bat, as they kaow nothing ef God, Truth, then it cannot be that matter is Truth, but quite the oppo site mast be unreal, and that is jost what Christian Science says of mat ter. Again, spiritual sense, through which we do apprehend anl love God, Truth, reality, reports absolutely nothing in regard to matter; another very good reason for placing matter outsldo the palo of rcalifir. It most bo remembered that this movement bas been inaugurated but a short time comparatively; but all things being considered, the rate of its ad vancement ii, beyond question, without precedent since tbo apostolic times. If wo were to look back beyond the be ginning of the last quarter century, wo should not see a single Christian Sci eaeq churah n the face of tho earth, for the original one, tho Mother Church of .tho denomination was organized in 1879.

Tho Christian Sclenco textbook, published first in 1875, bas reached moro than 335 odd tlons of 1,000 copies each, and tbo aaio of Sibles has correspondingly increas ed. "Wont does it all mean- It mears that deep down in tho human consci- oasnoui is being laid tho foundation of that eternal Truth, tbo knowledge of which was promised to mako us freo and that upon this firm substructure is being reared with solid masonry of Spirit tho oupcrstructuro of purer thinking, of moro rigbtoous living.
