A Little girl, daughter of a Christian Scientist, who attends the public school, tells this anecdote very sweetly and simply:—
"The mother of one of the children sent word to the teacher she would have to take her little girl out of school if her seat wasn't changed, because she was sitting by the window and her mother was afraid she would catch cold. Teacher spoke of it in school and said she didn't know what to do about it because she couldn't ask any of the other children to change with her on account of the same fear, and she had no vacant seat for her. I said, I will be glad to change seats with her, because I have no fear of taking cold, we are all Christian Scientists at home. Teacher permitted it, and I occupied the seat all winter, without taking cold of course. The little girl I changed seats with had a bad cold almost the entire winter, until her mamma had her treated by Christian Science."
