A Word from St. Louis

The thought has been with me for some time that it would be interesting to inform the readers of the Weekly that the text-book of Christian Science is in great demand at the Public Library of our city. This library now has nine copies of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker G. Eddy. Five of this number were presented by students and friends of the Cause, and four were purchased by the Library Board of Managers.

This wonderful book is arousing public interest to such an extent that all of these copies are generally in circulation among the patrons of the library, and the writer has been told by the librarian and his assistant that those who ask for the book often find it impossible to get it, because the number of copies on hand is not sufficient to meet the demand. This need will be met by the addition of further copies.

The growing appreciation, on the part of the library managers and officers, of the works of the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, is also shown by the recent purchase of a copy of "Miscellaneous Writings," and the assistant librarian has stated that an effort would soon be made to secure for the readers of the library a copy of each of the other writings of Mrs. Eddy. It should be added that the Journal has also had a place for several years in the reading room among the periodicals of the library.
