As one reads the variety of opinion expressed by your many correspondents in their assaults upon what they quite honestly believe Christian Science to be, and notes how much of this criticism is clearly contradictory,—one writer objecting, perhaps, to Christian Science for being just the very thing which another has assailed it for not being,—one feels a deep sense of gratitude that through it all, like some stately liner on an angry sea, the law of good, Christian Science, pursues her unswerving course, and that one has the good fortune to be even a steerage passenger upon that boat.

The grateful thought looks out over the troubled waters into the blackness of the night of human conjecture and weary experiment from which it has escaped, and with a keen sympathy throws life-lines of hope and encouragement to "some strong swimmer in his agony;" calling in the teeth of the swirl the pilot's words, "Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom."
