Those Who Choose To Save The Finest Table Quality Spread for Bread At Half the Price Saving is seldom a matter of choice. If you save ftom necessity, frequently you sacrifice quality, so most vane families go on paying top prices for practically everything that “comes to the table”, Nucoa is the one food product in which you get the finest table quality, and yet pay just about one half for it. So Saving on Nucoa is purely a matter of “choosing to save”. In ateate, | war ing.

Now choose whether you will use Nucoa and save, or pay twice the price, for the same qualities in a spread by another name. Ask your Grocer for Nucoa—in the all-protecting carton.

As sho discerned thie truth and saw the abundant promise of heal Ing, she invited the world to come jand be healed of physical {lls. As one saying, “I am suffering | story of some business problem over which he was worrled, she saw that his real difficulty was not with his | stomach, not with the food ho was eat ing, but with his thoughts. Another case was that of a woman suffering from belief of disease and her story was of worry ov some member of | her family; Mra. Eddy saw that this woman's disease wag not a condition of flesh, but of mind. She saw that with Indigestion,” also told her his | THI I t« and I But wh put siness man 1 of our thoughts filled with pra. may in all that we and think and sa. ve place to the kingdom of God. feeling absolutely assured that, as a result of this, all these things wil be added to us?

Christian Science teaches th God ts Love, Life, Truth, Bou Mind, Spirit, Principle. Perhaps the term “Principle,” more than any other, when understood, will bring to us that sor of the all eas of God which we need If we are to apply this understanding In solv ing our everyday problems, In this connection, I remember always that & little foreign woman came after a lecture In New York city one night and said, “Please tell mo how your God can be everywhere at the sar time.” ‘Thin in the years th j have cotne to think of It her believe that God ts a 3 do not need t You cai Verse or any of the won creation without as 1 power to God.

How our |business problems woutt melt Into nothingness if we could but place our business efforts upon this high |plane! So, whether it is the healing of one’s bodily complaint, or of the |discord in one’s home or church ‘or |school or community, or whether It is tho healing of this problem of |commercial life to-day, all may be| solved by our being brought into har- mony with the divino Mind—with God, As Mrs. Eddy taught, and thereby lifted people out of their false be- liefs about poisons, and showed them |that the only polson was In human belief, they were healed. They then |went out and brought others, until great numbers came, and she saw always, as they were ready to accept the truth and to rely upon God, that there came healing. and so was verl- fied the Master's promise, “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. . . . And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; ... lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.” TEXTBOOK Mrs. Eddy began teaching Chris: tian Sclence by simply re-presenting |to the world this great gospel of | goodness, this gospel or news about God, that Jesus had given to the world two thousand years before; and with the acceptance of that truth men were healed, and thus was proved the divine authority of the teaching of Christian Science. She wrote the textbook, “Sclence and Health with Key to the Serip- tures,” that all who would, might come to an understanding of God— that understanding of God which when applied in our lives will itt us out of bondage to all these false laws and false hellefs that have bound and are binding the world today, Mrs, Eddy saw that through tho teachings of Christian Selence must come to the world this understanding |""Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy;’and you.” If we believe In God, let us rely jabsolutely upon God that we may |have all power “over all the power of the enemy." TREATMENT OR PRAYER Ono might ask, “How can I apply that {n my bustness, or in the heal- ing of physical ills, or in overcom: ing tho discord In my home?” Thero is one way that you cannot apply It jand that is by begging God to chang@ this or that or some other condition, Tho great difficulty with the world has been In begging God to change everything, and the one thing that needs change is the false senso of God and self, If wo will look within and find the thing that needs to be changed there, {t will mean bringing ourselves into harmony with the | operation of infinite power. It will be {getting self out of the way and let jting God relgn im all our thoughts “The gon can do nothing of himself, but what ho seeth the Father do,” “Flo that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also.” Let us get rid of hatred, resent- ment, dishonesty, selfishness, sensu- | | nothing shall by any means hurt| his breath. “Well,” he said, “that [ts your trouble, you are always try: ing to get something; If your breath were coming easily and naturally you would probably be Just as con- jcerned with getting something olse, maybe some orders for your business, abundantly, you would be striving to get something else, getting pleas- are or excitement or rarely considering how you could give something. Go back to your work and learn how to give in your business, and you may not have so much trouble getting.” The man did learn how to give in his business, was quickly healed, and his business prospered. Each of us can learn tho same lesson. The Christian Science textbook says (p. 123), “Divine Scl- ence, rising above physical theories, excludes matter, resolves things in- to thoughts, and replaces the ob- Jects of material sense with spiritual ideas.” Whether you aro a housekeeper serving meals, making the home com. |fortable, or whether you are making or selling some article of merchan. dise, or whatever your work may be, try to resolve material things into thoughts and replace tho objects of material sense with spiritual ideas, Consider, for example, the automo.
