Many thanks for your pleasant far reaching thoughtsEditorial Note: See 033A.13.010.. You will find the cross is light ― and sometimes heavy, both conditions are the weight we, not God, give it.

Jesus said "my burden is lightMatt 11:30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. " ― again he fainted under it

Mr. Bowers sells at about 1/2 his usual price until April. He will supply you All orders for my photographs at his Office are proper

I am pleased with the pleasure your dear Students find in looking at my shadow for it does reflect my mental mood

One word of advice As Written: adice on your good work ― When teaching the Bible and Science and HealthEditorial Note: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy ― those who talk little if any between the lines of the latter teach it. The effect of my writings is often diluted and sometimes lost by attempting to explain them It is the seed which once sown springs up, and if seemingly obscure at first, it makes its way in the soil of thought, upward, and though least understood it bears the biggest results of all books Like the seed which when sown is least and the biggest in bearing ― that Jesus spoke ofMark 4:30 ¶And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it? Mark 4:31 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth: Mark 4:32 But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it. Matt 13:31 ¶Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: Matt 13:32 Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.

My love to Mrs. Hanna
