IMPERISHABLE GLORY

[Of Special Interest to Young People]

SYRETA THORNBURG

In the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, we find the account of an Englishwoman, whose experience was related in a London medical magazine. The young woman had a disappointment in a love affair and was mentally affected.

Believing that she lived in the very hour of her lover's departure from her, she literally grew no older as she waited for his return. Her mental attitude governed her physical state, and at the age of seventy-four, she had the appearance of one under twenty. Our Leader tells us (p. 245), "This instance of youth preserved furnishes a useful hint, upon which a Franklin might work with more certainly than when he coaxed the enamoured lightning from the clouds."
