There' s nothing that wins like winsomeness, and many a man's determination and consequent career for good could be traced to some very simple but very genuine expression of the spirit of Christian brotherhood. We were reminded of this by the following pleasant reference to the atmosphere of a Christian Science church, which appeared in the columns of an exchange.

"The manner in which a stranger is greeted by the Scientists is very happy, indeed. He is made to feel thoroughly at home, and to realize that every one in the church is in sympathy with him before he goes away. A little of this thing does a person good, even though he does not sympathize wholly with the Christian Science belief."

The fact is that ready sympathy, the exchange of genuine interest and good-will, is the one thing the heart of humanity always welcomes, and he who has a smile, a pleasant greeting, a hearty hand-grasp for his fellows, that man is an unlimited blessing; he is able to do a large business with a modest capital, and he can but succeed.
