THE principal of a celebrated school I attended used to say, "Girls, go through a wilderness. " Whether she was right or not I do not know, but the words were somewhat of a comfort to me, for they expressed just what life seemed to me.

ABOUT a month or so ago, I had a dream which helped me a great deal in the realization of this present state of consciousness as being only a dream, and how the sense dreams vanish at the voice of Truth. A lady had come to me some time before with a very severe belief of neuralgia.

DURING the study of a recent Bible Lesson there was emphasized to my thought as never before the compassionate and unalterable relationship which exists between our heavenly Father, God, and each well-loved child, and since awakening to this fact I have found reassurance of the same comforting relationship in each lesson, scripture, and hymn.

I CAN hardly remember the time when I first began to think of making preparation, whereby I might sometime enter into the "Kingdom of Heaven," a place, a locality, far away, in the realms of illimitable space, among the beautiful constellations and planets, which brighten our night-world.
