Question Answered

MARY BAKER G. EDDY.

To the general query, What do you think of Mrs. Burnham's novel, "The Right Princess"? I reply, One can scarcely consider the book a novel, since so much of its idealism is realism. The author dissects character with the skill of a metaphysical surgeon: she uses the knife and leaves the patient healed. She has portrayed a Christian Scientist with simplicity and candor: her pen is the pencil of an artist. The general trend of the novel is above the common plane, and its wit is well flavored with wisdom. But The Christian Science Publishing Society does not advertise novels.
