Notes from the Publishing Society
Mary Baker Eddy has noted that businessmen, among others, have found that Christian Science blesses them in a variety of ways. (See Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 128.) A new pamphlet, "Science and Business," recently published by the Publishing Society, helps to explain why and how. It is available at 20 cents a copy at any Christian Science Reading Room or directly from The Christian Science Publishing Society, One Norway Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02115.
