A BEAUTIFUL CHRISTMAS GIFT

From the February 1897 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Among the Christmas remembrances from students to our Leader, the Rev. Mary Baker Eddy, was one of a nature so beautiful and unique that it is worthy of mention and a brief description in our Journal. It came from Mr. and Mrs. John H. Stewart and their students, of Toronto, Canada, and accompanying the gift is a booklet describing it, which is scarcely less a treasure than the gift itself.

The booklet is neatly bound and contains a fine photographic reproduction of the gift as a frontispiece. The title page consists of these words printed in large and tasteful gold letters:

On the following page commences the Greeting, neatly and beautifully written in type, headed also in letters of gold chastely wrought, "The Address." This covers five pages of the booklet, conveying in touching and tender words the depth of love and gratitude borne by the donors for our beloved Leader whom they sweetly designate as their "Dear Mother."
