I am nine years old, and I go...

I am nine years old, and I go to the Christian Science Sunday School. One time an ugly wart came on my hand. I worked to know the truth, as I have been taught to do in the Sunday School. One day the wart fell off when I was playing.

A playmate who does not go to the Christian Science Sunday School told me that the wart had a seed and that it would grow again. For a time I let error tell me this was so, and another wart came in the same place.

From the Lesson-Sermon for that week in the Christian Science Quarterly my mother read me these words (Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, p. 535): "The seed of Truth and the seed of error, of belief and of understanding,—yea, the seed of Spirit and the seed of matter,—are the wheat and tares which time will separate, the one to be burned, the other to be garnered into heavenly places."
