Christian Science in the Schoolroom

BY L. B. B.

On Tuesday one of my little girls was bitten by a dog. I do not wish to make a reality of the error, but will describe it slightly, so that you may better understand the proof of the nothingness of matter.

The marks of the dog's teeth were to be seen on the child's cheek from hair to chin, and there were two deep incisions in the cheek where they met. With one cry the child bounded into my arms. I held her closely declaring Truth, scarcely realizing what had happened, it was all so sudden.

Soon blood began to trickle down my waist. Then I washed the wound. My mental work, so far as any fear was concerned, was done, for it seemed absolutely nothing to me. In about an hour I took the child home, explained the matter to her mother, allayed the fear, and left them.
