I want to add this on your behalf as known only to myself.

“Revell” the bookseller is dissastified As Written: disatisfied with terms on the book “S.&H.”Editorial Note: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. that he has decided not to handle it longer.

They have the best trade from Ohio to CaliforniaAs Written:Calafornia of any Christian booksellers in the west. They are straight everyway and no dealer can do as much for you as they.

It is not customary to demand money in advance of such a house. Again the discount turns them from us.

They can get 40 to 50 per ct. on “Evans Divine Law of Cure” and not knowing the difference so long as it is pure in morals they will sell it and push it and will not care to look at other than the business points.

I feel sure I can persuade them to sell S.&H.Editorial Note: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. at 40 per ct. dis. nett. if you will give me authority to do so and nett would be money when goods received.

If you wish this a private arrangement with them I will make it so. They would probably order in lots of 50 sets. They were about to order the other expecting 50 per ct. discount I have persuaded them to wait a few days for a reply to this. I do this for the sake of Truth Having a long experience in the book trade I know it will be wise to do so and if you gave them even 50 dis. they would push hard I think and make it pay you.

Yours in love
C.F.M.
