Editor of The Christian Science Journal:—Permit me

to say that your editorial in the August number is par

excellence.

It is a digest of good manners, morals, methods, and [5]

means. It points to the scientific spiritual molecule,

pearl, and pinnacle, that everybody needs. May the

Christlikeness it reflects rest on the dear readers, and

throw the light of penetration on the page; even as the

dawn, kindling its glories in the east, lightens earth's [10]

landscape.

I thank the contributors to The Christian Science

Journal for their jewels of thought, so adapted to the

hour, and without ill-humor or hyperbolic tumor. I

was impressed by the articles entitled “The New Pas- [15]

tor,” by Rev. Lanson P. Norcross, “The Lamp,” by

Walter Church, “The Temptation,” a poem by J. J.

Rome, etc.

The field waves its white ensign, the reapers are strong,

the rich sheaves are ripe, the storehouse is ready: pray [20]

ye therefore the God of harvest to send forth more

laborers of the excellent sort, and garner the supplies

for a world.
