A sincere and kayal! student of Christina Sciones does not put forward the slightest claim to possession of medical prowess, nor does he bamper in the least with things medical. He does rendise, however, that With God all things are possible and, thanks to the understanding of what God, man and the universe are, gained. through an intelligent study of the Bible in the light of the Christianly Scientific explanation of it, he is willing and able to confidently trust himself and his fellow men to God's loving care, even in the case of a manifestation of cancer, rather than to the acknowledgedly very pre- carious assistance of the medical practitioner, with his present by n means perfect knowledge of this dread malady and its cure.
