The article from the pen of our Leader, the Rev. Mary Baker Eddy, which appears in the October number of the Granite Monthly of Concord, N. H., is one of the strongest and most comprehensive epitomes of the doctrine of Christian Science we have ever read. Even to the student of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, although he have studied it for years, some of the statements of this article come with startling force; not that they are not all contained in the text-book, but because of the forceful originality of their putting.
These statements will bear deep and earnest study and reflection, and will inspire us anew in our work and endeavor along the line of spiritual growth and demonstration. The half-tone picture of our Leader accompanying this article is also excellent in both portraiture and the quality of its execution. Indeed the entire magazine, as to the character of its articles and the taste and beauty of its mechanical make-up, reflects great credit on the old Granite State of which it is the worthy representative, and is fully equal to our greatest popular monthlies.
The biographical sketch of Mrs. Eddy is replete with suggestive and interesting incidents which have never before appeared in print. The whole will be read with keen zest and much profit by all Christian Scientists and their friends.
