On my return from ChicagoEditorial Note: Chicago, Illinois yesterday I found the Aug. No. of Christian Science awaiting me and I have read it with great pleasure. It is the best yet. I have a very worthy woman who has taken the trip with me and who has naturally become greatly interested in Christian ScienceAs Written:Christian. S. I am anxious to take a Normal course in Sept, and have been urging her to do so with me, but as yet she cannot see her way to do so, on account of money. She is alone in the world except an aged mother who is entirely dependent upon her for support.

I talked with Miss. Brown and with Dr. Avery's people and they advised me to write to you. They all thought her very lovely and worthy. You have a most devoted and efficient worker in Miss Brown and her love for her teacher is rare and refreshing.

I suspect it is the same with all whom you allow to come sufficiently near you. I have done Chicago thoroughly. I felt that I wanted to know all about the various factions for myself, then I could the better judge. Now, dear Madame I will not intrude farther upon your busy time, but ask the simplest reply as to the next normal course.

I cannot be content until I have been under your personal instructions. This I wish to do as soon as possible.

Heaven bless you for Science & HealthEditorial Note: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy.

Awaiting a speedy reply I am My dear Madame Yours Most Sincerely
