RELIGION THAT
BUILDS NEW CHURCH A WEEK
CH
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE, THE RELIGION FOUNDED 72 YEARS AGO BY FRAIL LITTLE MRS. MARY BAKER EDDY, IS GROWING IN INFLUENCE AND POWER THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.
New churches are being added to the 3,000 already existing at the rate of more than one a week.
In Britain during the year, according to figures just publish- ed by the mother church in Boston, the number of churches in- creased from 294 to 302..
Each church is self-supporting and usually well filled at every service.
Lieut.-Col. Robert E. Key, spokes- man for the movement in Britain, told reporter.
"Apart from the increase in the number of churches, reports from in- dividuni churches and societies, which work quite Independently, show that more and more people are enrolling as Christian Scientists,
CORONATION RECOGNITION "Important to us was the recogni- tion we received when we were given place in Westminster Abbey at the Coronation,
"Remarkable cases of healing are going on all the time, and both the medical profcusion and the orthodox Christian churches are recognising the value our work.
"Yet we are by no means Just Falth healers. We define our alms as: The reinstatement of Trinity's Christianity and ita last ciement of healing.
"The growth of Christian Science during the year has perhaps becn most pronounced in Britain, yet it is also spreading considerably in Aus- traila and South Africa.
"We are also flourishing in Ger- many, and have 75 churches there."

On the third day, very little better, she calls for, her Bible, opens it to read Matthew's account of Christian healing, Almost; immediately she recovers,
Such was the Incident that led her at once to found her religion.

Mary Baker Eddy had always been profoundly religious.
At the age of 12 she was so well advanced that she could dispute a point in theology when she was examined for church membership.
In 1843 Mury married a Major George W. Glover, who died $lx months later, A son was born three months later
She married a New Hampshire dentist, Dr. Daniel Patterson, in 1853. After ten years of alternating care and neglect for his delicate wife, Patterson finally deserted her at Lymi.
DIVORCED HUSBAND
On divorcing him, she lived as Mra. Glover until 1077, when she married Asa Gilbert Eddy, ardent Christian Scientist and the first of her disciples to practise Christian Sclence pub- llely. He died in 1882.
After her Arst pamphlet came sev- eral more publications, but the most important, first called "Science and Health," Inter "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," was Issued in 1875.
Occasionally revised by Mrs. Eddy "only to give a clearer and fuller expression of its original meaning," and finally revised in 1907, this book contains the
