Items of Interest

A Christian Scientist in England, who received a letter from Nairobi, East Africa, telling her of a successful lecture on Christian Science attended by about four hundred people—the first lecture given in that part of the continent—was so overjoyed by the result, and by a definite case of the healing of a man through listening to the lecture by wireless, that she wrote to Boston. It had been reported to her that a number of copies of Science and Health were sold as a result of the interest awakened by the lecture, most of them purchased by men. The Christian Scientist related other cases of healing during lectures given in London, England—cases known to her. A man who attended a lecture, but could not see, left seeing. Four years before, a woman who had not been hearing a sound was present at a lecture and had the gratifying experience of hearing the lecture very well. The English correspondent also attended a lecture, she writes, suffering from a condition of poison in both hands, which made it necessary to wear gloves within doors and without. At the lecture she was instantaneously healed, and the next night testified of her healing at the Wednesday evening meeting, at which a friend also gave a testimony of healing experienced at the same lecture.

These are the fruits Mrs. Eddy looked for from the important and consecrated work of the Board of Lectureship.
