 3	    We need a clean body and a clean mind, — a body
  	rendered pure by Mind as well as washed by water. 
  	One says: "I take good care of my body." 	                                  A clean mind
 6	To do this, the pure and exalting influence of	                                  and body 
  	the divine Mind on the body is requisite, and the Christian
  	Scientist takes the best care of his body when he leaves
 9	it most out of his thought, and, like the Apostle Paul, is
  	"willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be pres-
  	ent with the Lord." 
12	    A hint may be taken from the emigrant, whose filth
  	does not affect his happiness, because mind and body
  	rest on the same basis. To the mind equally gross, dirt
15	gives no uneasiness. It is the native element of such a
  	mind, which is symbolized, and not chafed, by its sur-
  	roundings; but impurity and uncleanliness, which do
18	not trouble the gross, could not be borne by the refined. 
  	This shows that the mind must be clean to keep the body
  	in proper condition.
