Emperor William Suppresses Christian Science
EMPEROR WILLIAM has undertaken to suppress “Christian Science” in Germany. He has decreed that persons taking part in the practices of this belief, or in those of “faith healers,” Spiritualists, or other occultists, shall not be admitted to the imperial court or to any halls under its control. Already “Christian Science” has obtained a considerable following among people of the upper middle class in Germany, and, as has been pointed out to the emperor, this decree will probably do more to advertise the doctrine and create a desire to know about it than would anything that “Christian Scientists” might be able to do themselves.
