Certain it is, that Mrs. Eddy herself never set our critic , any such example of hatred and in tolerance. Christian Scientists are taught not to attack or abuse persons' or their . religious beliefs, fur they j endeavor to piacuce trie uoiuen 'Ituie anjl respect the rights and privileges of their fellow men; nor do they seek controversy with those who may not agree with them, but reply to critics wily in defense and to correct mis representations.
