The Countess Lewenhaupt-Bildt of Stockholm, who is visiting Mrs. John Munro Longyear of Brookline, has with her a real Correggio, a painting valued at fifty thousand dollars. In speaking of it the Countess said, "Yes, I value it much. Is it not beautiful? It has been in my family two hundred and fifty years, and came to me from the collection of my grandfather, Maj.-Gen. von Bagge."

"Are you interested in Christian Science?" asked the countess, changing the subject. "I want to tell you about my meeting with Mrs. Eddy. She granted me an audience on Sept. 19, and that has been my most wonderful experience in America, so far. Mrs. Eddy is beautiful beyond expression. She has a most exquisite voice,—musical, as you say, and her eyes are so that you see the whole soul shining through. The eyes are the chief thing, don't you think so?"

"How did I become interested in Christian Science?" she repeated, in reply to the question.
