I received by way of sister Leavitt the directions for M. and note from bro Frye, thanks for same. I may need them but I care less about M. than ever before. I do believe if I strive to be good, to make the best of myselfAs Written:my self, to work in ScienceEditorial Note: Christian Science deep, I am just as free from M. as any other belief. I have had some things I think connected with me worse than M. but hope to do the work laid before me very well, at least I shall try. I hardly thought I would have the pleasure of you visiting W.Editorial Note: Worcester, Massachusetts but being informed so by sister Leavitt I will prepare for same and will very soon set the date which will be within 10 days or two weeks.

Sister Leavitt informed me that all Teachers had been notified not to teach less than $100.00Editorial Note: $100.00 in 1884 is the equivalent of $2,821.50 in 2018. very good. If one wants to make a discount to a poor person or give it to them, they can just the same, you can fall from a price but you cannotAs Written:can not go up, and for a price $100.00Editorial Note: $100.00 in 1884 is the equivalent of $2,821.50 in 2018. is little enough. Let others outside teach for less and that will only serve to make Mrs. Eddy and her Teachers (or the Eddy systemEditorial Note: Christian Science) more valuable, for it costs more and will be worth more and those wishing to learn will only want it more for that reason. When you can hear people say, you cannotAs Written:can not learn of Mrs. E. or any of her students less than $100.00Editorial Note: $100.00 in 1884 is the equivalent of $2,821.50 in 2018. that will serve to awaken people to the idea that we have got the ScienceEditorial Note: Christian Science, and something more than can be got from others, at any price. Your price of 300.00Editorial Note: $300.00 in 1884 is the equivalent of $8,464.51 in 2018. is little enough to those who can pay, and you know, who to, and will make such discounts as you think is right.

There is much said here against the Eddy schoolEditorial Note: Christian Science, notwithstandingAs Written:not withstanding the very nice business I have been doing, but of course it is only to be expected, for only I are for you, and all the rest for Stewart, Arnes, Newman &c. I dislike this discord very much and it is a damage for a time to the work but all we can do is to work for the right, and say as little as possible against the opposite. C.S.Editorial Note: Christian Scientists should strive to make the best of themselves in every respect that we may be shining stars among the profession. Homoeopathy when first started had its struggle but is now all right and holds its own.

When you come I not only want you to acquaint the people with the Truth of the right SystemEditorial Note: Christian Science &c., but more especially give to them some of your beautiful thoughts and explain to them the great Truth of Christian Science. I will procure a medium sized hall or the best we have, and take the best way to fill it, or you can speak in my rooms just as you prefer. I would sooner make more of an affair of it and if possible fill our largest hall, and I am not sure but what it could be done if properly worked, and I know I could do it, had I the time. As regards the opposite element, I say nothing about them unless something comes up to call for it, and then I speak the Truth. Now I will close as I am perhaps writing more than necessary. I would like to know if I can have Science and HealthEditorial Note: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. 50 copies at a time for $100.00Editorial Note: $100.00 in 1884 is the equivalent of $2,821.50 in 2018.. It will bother me to buy them as largely but I want to get as many out here as possible and get them into the hands of as many of my patients as possible and if I get them for $2.00Editorial Note: $2.00 in 1884 is the equivalent of $56.43 in 2018. net I can give them 9 Weeks, or course of treatment including booksEditorial Note: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. for so much money. Of course in retailing alone the price to be $3.00Editorial Note: $3.00 in 1884 is the equivalent of $84.65 in 2018. [For: $3.00] always. And if I get the books at this price I will take time to put them in the book stores and give them a profit, and get out placards &c. It seems as though you could well afford to place these booksEditorial Note: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. in my hands at this price, and even allow me to pay for them every 30 days, for every bookEditorial Note: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. that is out, counts so much for our side, I must say that by assisting me in this way you will greatly assist yourselves from the sale and bring the work before many more people. It is not for the profit I ask this, but that I may be better enabled to spread the work in this and perhaps other localities. In this way I can wholesale and Retail it, and will take as much interest in pushing the work as though it were my own. I advanced this once before (confidentially) to brother Frye but I suppose you did not see it as I did, or perhaps had not the confidence in me. You can consider it and bro. Frye can write when most convenient.
