A Broken Pitcher

[For children]

Alone in the kitchen of her friend, Janie, a Christian Scientist, was drying dishes, when the handle of a pretty pitcher broke. Janie was scared. She was afraid her friend Meg would be angry and scold her.

"You needn't tell anyone," error suggested quickly. "Take it home and throw it away. It will never be missed."

Janie slipped the pitcher into her bag. She returned to the drying, but she knew something was very wrong. Suddenly these words of Mrs. Eddy's broke through to her: "Honesty is spiritual power." Science and Health, p. 453; This angel message of Christian Science opened her thought to the truth, and soon other good thoughts followed, telling her that she was "Truth's honest child," Christian Science Hymnal, No. 382; as the hymn says.
