L aw ndale, Cal.D ea r F rien d s: I t is about a month since

I w rote you some of my early experiences with New Thought, or as I now consider it, sp iritu a l things. Six years ago I was en tirely cured of a severe stom ach trouble, also of a lifelong periodical sick head­ache, by absent trea tm en t, and have had neither of them since then and have made some personal dem onstrations since then. I s truck my finger a fu ll blow w ith a ham ­m er, knocking the nail lose except a lit­tle around the edge. I im m ediately gave it a silent trea tm en t and d id not look a t it th a t day again. N ex t m orning it was clear and in a few days more it was en­tire ly well. I also cut my hand with a chisel, gash was 1J4 inches. I wound a cloth to keep d ir t out and kept on w ork­ing and fe lt no pain or inconvenience from it and in a week it was en tirely well. Be­fore I began studying the Science of L ife and P rac tica l C h ris tian ity I had been an invalid 29 years and a f te r beginning this study began to build up and now fo r six years have the best of health and am able to do a fu ll d ay ’s w ork, and m any tim es do not even get tired for weeks, “F or the F a th e r who is in me, he doeth the w ork.” I consider this a m arvel of the power and w ill of S p irit when my years are con­sidered. -I am usually ju d g ed to be 60 or 70). bu t am 76. Am w ell a ll the time.

U n i t y is my most favored read ing and I pass them out when I find an interested reader, and w ill g lad ly d istribu te copies if you wish to send to me. H ave sent m any subscribers besides pay ing for some m yself. G . E . H.

THE HAND WRITING ON THE WALL

A U n ity visitor said :“ T he first tim e I attended a U nity m eet­

ing I was much im pressed by the b lot on the wall above the word ‘Love.’

“A p p aren tly the elem ents, m isdirected, had attem pted to obliterate ‘Love’ in U nity . B u t I was very g lad , very much relieved, to see th a t the b lo tting elem ent had been restra ined ju s t before it reached ‘Love.’ I saw th a t the separa ting ele­m ent, which would ob literate ‘Love,’ had begun its work, fo r the first le tte r, ‘L ,’ had been p a rtia lly cut off.

“ I am glad to learn th a t the m isdirect­ing agent has been righted and tru s t the b lo tting effects w ill soon be ‘for-g iven’— and here is a piece of money as evidence of my sincerity.

“ Showers of blessing, in the ir natu re good— refresh ing and life-giving— m isdi­rected or misused, work havoc— blot out Love. B ut W isdom directs a rig h t.”

T he vacation habit is becoming con­tagious am ong the U nity employees.

NOTES FROM THE FIELDM rs. V an M arte r, who is still in F or­

tress M onroe, V irgin ia, says in a le tter ju s t received:

“ O f course I am having a most delight­ful tim e and am being en tertained quite royally . T here are some people who are much in terested in the lessons and several tim es the re have been people over from N orfo lk . A t la s t n ig h t’s lesson there was one lady from N orfo lk who had recently been to W ashington to consult a special­is t (an em inent physic ian ), and all he did fo r her was to advise her to read and s tudy some New T hought books, so, her husband brought her here, and a fte r the lesson la st n igh t they subscribed for U n i t y and ordered Tw elve Lessons in C hristian H ealing . She first took a good look a t Tw elve Lessons, which I had w ith me, and then sa id : ‘Oh, th a t is ju s t w hat I w an t.’ I expect to rem ain here another week and go to O scaw ana, N . Y., on the 16th. In the m eantim e I am to see some more of the ‘sights.’ A lthough I can scarcely im agine w hat can be le ft to be seen.

I have adm ired above all the luxury of the verdure, and the gor­geousness of the flow ers; especially the mimosa tree and the crape m yrtle , both of which are one mass of gorgeous blos­soms.

“ M rs. B alderson (who recen tly visited U n ity ) , came here w ith a niece from P h il­adelphia to a ttend these lessons. She was here a little over a week, and her p res­ence was indeed a benediction in every way. She said m any good th ings to the people here about the U nity w ork in K ansas C ity, and in every w ay helped and encouraged those who were becoming interested in the T ru th .

“W ith m any thoughts of love and bless­ing to a ll.”
