On Sunday afternoons, at three o'clock, Mrs. Butler and I hold Christian Science services at our home in this city, 4th Calle Providencia No. 10, corner of Bucareli Boulevard, the only Christian Science services so far held in the Republic of Mexico. We are desirous that Scientists intending to visit this country should know this so they may attend the meetings, and thus help themselves as well as encourage us. Mrs. Butler reads the Bible selections, and I read the correlative passages from the text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker G. Eddy.

The first service was held in this city by Mr. and Mrs. Adam H. Dickey of Kansas City, who were here last December. There were just seven at the initial meeting—seven is a symbol of completeness. We have kept up the services since Mr. and Mrs. Dickey returned to Kansas City to engage in active Christian Science work, and truly we have been blessed in the effort made in the name of the precious Saviour. Last Sunday there were fifteen present, and at our last Wednesday evening meeting there were sixteen present. Among those present were half-a-dozen persons who had been wonderfully delivered from the slavery of sin and sickness to the "liberty of the sons of God." We realize that God is here just as much as in our old homes in the North.

Yours in the fellowship of Truth,
E. C. Butler.
