A Word To The Wise

Will all the dear Christian Scientists accept my tender

greetings for the forthcoming holidays, and grant me

this request,—let the present season pass without one [20]

gift to me.

Our church edifice must be built in 1894. Take thither

thy saintly offerings, and lay them in the outstretched

hand of God. The object to be won affords ample oppor-

tunity for the grandest achievement to which Christian [25]

Scientists can direct attention, and feel themselves alone

among the stars.

No doubt must intervene between the promise and

event; faith and resolve are friends to Truth; seize them,

trust the divine Providence, push upward our prayer in [1]

stone,—and God will give the benediction.
