 anaesthetics, anti-febrile, anti-septic, anti-scorbutic 

 remedies, etc. It is claimed by many that all dis- 

 eases may be overcome through the exercise of will- 

 power, or faith. Hence the devotees of these special 

 branches of healing by faith or Christian Science. 

 Obstinate diseases, however, it is widely attested, do 

 not always yield to the methods or faith of these 

 classes, because the source of healing is not under-

 diseases and performed miracles through Divine 

 power and perception of this great fundamental 

 truth. It will not be impossible in the future, there- 

 fore, to re-establish harmony or health through means 

 of faith ()]• will, when the absolute cause of all dis- 

 eases has been learned and identified in special recog- 

 nized matter. As the disease, so in contrary relation 

 must be the remedy. Faith and Doubt are as ma- 

 terial, though in an advanced degree, as the grosser 

 cohered forms of Materia Medica.
