Very truly Yours
M. B. G. Eddy

And it is worth a thousand times that. If you are in indigent circumstances I will discount something to you I am the only person that I know of today who can teach this scienceEditorial Note: Christian Science as it should be taught and enable the student to hold his position in the scienceEditorial Note: Christian Science, but for all this I take no advantage, but give my entire labors only when I have a class and if I take that for one sixth of my price per pupil I might as well give up my College at once
