Lynn, Mass.—The former home of Mrs. Eddy at 12 Broad Street is open to visitors daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. from May 15 through October 15. During these months the house is also open on Sundays from 2 to 5 p.m. From October 16 through May 14, the house is open daily, except Sundays, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. It is closed on all holidays with the exception of Patriots' Day (third Monday in April), Memorial Day (last Monday in May), and Bunker Hill Day (June 17). This house, including the little attic room where Mrs. Eddy completed her work on the original manuscript of Science and Health, has been carefully restored to present the highest possible point of historical accuracy.

Perception is so much more than just seeing. A man with a history of weak eyesight said, "I came closer to the idea that sight is a spiritual sense; it is perceiving, or understanding, the truth of God and man." His eyesight improved so much that the restriction on his driving license was removed. On the same program, a woman with very acute eye trouble tells how her vision was restored following a prayer to be a "better transparency for God's nature and qualities to shine through." Another woman with cataracts affecting her sight to the point that she could see only a blur, speaks of her healing based on a fuller understanding of God's love.
