A most beneficent charity is the establishment of a Kindergarten for the Blind. A Roxbury estate has been bought, and before long buildings will be ready for occupancy. Some of the most influential Bostonians are arranging unique entertainments in aid of the funds. The new school is necessitated by the want of room and facilities, in the Perkins School at South Boston, for the accommodation of the youngest blind unfortunates.
Christian Scientists think, however, that when their methods are understood and adopted, there will be no longer any need of asylums for the blind, because the blind will receive their sight, even as they received it from Jesus.
Mrs. Eddy tells an interesting story of a blind girl, once in her family, who could see wonderfully when positively told that she could do so. The child could even fill a goblet to a designated point, as accurately as if she could see the pouring stream in the ordinary way.
From time to time reports reach us of eye-diseases remedied by Christian Science. Practitioners, through whom this blessing comes, cannot do better service than by letting the world know of such cases through the ready columns of this Journal.
