Thanking you in advance for your . It is, that is to say, dead, as dead as courtesy, Yours very truly, a theory incapable of demonstration. The Roman philosophers of the early GLOSS W. HEARNE. years of the Christian era called this Cause and effect are inseparable, but precept is possible without practice, just as it theory without demonstration. All of which conclusively proves that neither theory nor precept is cause. The Bible, which, if it is anything, is a great, scientific textbook, makes this perfectly clear. "He that believeth on me," Jesus said, "the works that I do demonstration a miraculum, and out of this has been derived the English word miracle, the true significance of which scholastic theology, having no mind to accept Jesus' command literally, has eluded by the simple method of in turn defining it as supernatural. Such an exhibition of cause and effect as the raising of Lazarus, or the walking on the water, is, of course, to the human mind, entirely methaphysical, or be yond the physical, but this is only be cause of the human mind's ignorance of Principle. Mrs. Eddy has indeed, explained this, with her usual mar velous clarity, on page 126 of Science and Health, where she writes: "The point at issue between Christian Sci ence on the one hand and popular the ology on the other is this: Shall Sci ence explain cause and effect as being both natural and spiritual? Or shall all that beyond the cognizance of the material senses be called supernatural, and be left to the mercy of speculative hypotheses?" Now what a man demonstrates is al ways his own knowledge of anything. If his knowledge is purely material, he soon discovers that his premises are changing, for the very simple reason that there is no Principle in them. The verification of this is written in a mil lion textbooks, from the ethics of Aris totle to the Summa of Aquinas, and from the theories of Abelard to the speculations of Kelvin, themselves noth ing but a mental Sahara of hifting sands. But if a man has caught one glimpse of the spiritual, he has found the rock of Principle, and his know ledge will begin to expand, just as the dawn broadens into day. How scien tific this knowedge is, he will discover by the ease which he will be able to account for every failure equally with every success, and by the certainty with which he will be able to assure him self that the world regards the demon stration of spiritual law as supernatur aL not by Teason of anything it knows about it, but sorely by reason of its ignorance of it. Then, at last, he will begin to understand what Christ Jesus meant when he said, "Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." What frees a man from belief In sin, disease, and death, then, is the fact of Love, Truth, and Life in one word, of Principle. There is no Princi ple in sin, disease, or death, and there fore they are outside the actual, or, to put it a little differently, tney are counterfeiters of or lies about something in Principle. SIN CAN BE OVER COME, DISEASE CAN BE HEALED. HEATH CAN BE MASTERED: IN DEED.
