  	    If the case is that of a young child or an infant, it needs
  	to be met mainly through the parent's thought, silently
30	or audibly on the aforesaid basis of Christian	                                 The cure
  	Science. The Scientist knows that there can	                                 of infants 
  	be no hereditary disease, since matter is not intelligent
 1	and cannot transmit good or evil intelligence to man, and
  	God, the only Mind, does not produce pain in matter. 
 3	The act of yielding one's thoughts to the undue contem-
  	plation of physical wants or conditions induces those very
  	conditions. A single requirement, beyond what is neces-
 6	sary to meet the simplest needs of the babe is harmful. 
  	Mind regulates the condition of the stomach, bowels, and
  	food, the temperature of children and of men, and matter
 9	does not. The wise or unwise views of parents and other
  	persons on these subjects produce good or bad effects on
  	the health of children.
