expression, which is found within the pages of this booklet is proof that Mr. Chesnutt has given careful study to his subject. The first chapter, "In His Steps," is a strong reply to those who stand for the literal interpretation of the Scripture. The Bible student will find numerous references to aid him in bringing together the many texts which apply to the same subject; also the spiritual intent of the text is given. GOD AND OTHER POEMS. Translated by Sir John Bowr ing, compiled by Margaret S. L. Parr. Published by Richard Badger, the Gorham Press, Boston, Mass. Cloth, price, $1. A book of Oriental poems, prayers and invocations which are translated from the original, and which are dignified and very helpful. Biographical notes of the different authors are appended. IN A NUTSHELL. Agnes Boss Thomas. Published by the Rajput Press, Chicago. Cloth, price, 50 cents. This is a book of stories for children. The author has an unusually happy faculty of expression which is at once bright and attractive, and each story is told so deftly and daintily that it is a gem. Best of all, Truth principles are so cleverly embodied in the stories that the child is taught without knowing that a lesson was intended. We heartily recommend the little book. THE GATES OF KNOWLEDGE. Rudolf Steiner. Published by G. P. Putnam's Sons, New York City. Cloth, price, $1.25, postage 15 cents. The author states that the four modes of knowledge are: "Material Knowledge," "Imaginative Knowledge," "Inspirational, also called Knowledge of the Nature of the Will," and "Intuitive Knowledge." Quite exhaustively are the subjects treated and we believe that the student of the Higher Life will find much of help in this book. BIRTH A NEW CHANCE. Columbus Bradford. Published by A. C. McClurg & Co., Chicago, Ill. Cloth; price not given, but we judge about $1.50. The arguments by which the author supports his hypothesis that the dead live again by being born again, will be difficult to refute, for he has a very intimate knowledge of the Scriptures, interpreting them in a novel and yet simple manner in proof of his doctrine. A very interesting book on a much discussed question. Cedar Falls, Iowa. I am reading Mr. Fillmore's Lessons. They are so inspiring! What a joy that the day is dawning!-Mrs. V. C. S.

TO ALL CORRESPONDENTS We have often explained to our readers that it is a great convenience to us to have communications for the healing department kept separate from those for the business department. Sometimes in one letter there will be orders for books and subscriptions, requests for healing, inquiries about the Correspondence School, questions to be answered, and a few other things, and one hardly knows where to begin to straighten it all out. Now that the Silent Unity Society is in a separate building, a little care on the part of our correspondents in preparing their communications to us would be appreciated more than ever. We do not ask you to mail separate letters to all these departments; mail for all should be addressed to Unity Building, 913 Tracy Ave., Kansas City, Mo.; but if you will write to the various departments on separate sheets of paper inclosed in one envelope, giving your name and address in each case, we can sort them out when they come, and pass them around where they belong. There will then be no confusion and many delays will be avoided. We thank our friends in advance for their kind attention to this request. UNITY SOCIETY CORRESPONDENCE SCHOOL We have added to our Correspondence School work six auxiliary lessons as follows: 1. The Silence. 2. Healing. 3. Prosperity. 4. The Body of Christ. 5. Overcoming. 6. The Great Demonstration. These lessons, with auxiliary reading, form Part One of our Curriculum. It will take the average student from six months to one year to complete Part One. In Part Two of the course there are twelve lessons, based on the twelve given by Charles Fillmore in his book, "Christian Healing." While these lessons cover the same ground as those given by Mr. Fillmore, they are different, having been prepared especially for the Correspondence School work. The six new lessons composing Part One were written to make clearer and to bring out definitely certain points of the science touched upon but not fully explained in Part Two. They are put first in the course because they lay a good foundation for what follows in Part Two. We recommend Part One to any who have tried Part Two and found it too difficult. Many of our students who have finished Part Two are now teaching. To these we also recommend the recently added Part One-it will help them in the work. Our Correspondence School is sustained by free-will offerings, and every student is expected to settle the amount of his offerings by referring the question directly to the Spirit of Justice as expressed within himself. Address Unity Society Correspondence School, Unity Building, 913-917 Tracy Ave., Kansas City, Mo. Help received from the Correspondence lessons is acknowledged in many letters like the following: Beverly, Mass.-I cannot express just in words the great beauty and real loveliness of the first lesson in your Preparatory Course. It is so simple and clear and I just want to demonstrate every bit of it, but you have just got to think and feel. I have known that without feeling Truth you cannot demonstrate it. It is a law of the heart. Whoever wrote the lesson certainly knows how to bring out the real Truth, the very heart.—A. L. L. Vancouver, B. C.-Lesson One in the Preparatory Course is very interesting, and I have enjoyed drinking it in greatly. But one can drink and drink and drink again, and still there is more and more to come from this one lesson, for the "Silence" is the avenue to the Universal and it is exhaustless. I hunger for knowledge and spiritual understanding.-R. J. I. Galt, Ont.-Please find inclosed Lesson Seven. God is teaching me wonderfully day by day through his Holy Spirit, and I thank and praise him for his wonderful love revealed to us through Jesus Christ. Since studying these lessons his Presence, the indwelling Christ, is daily becoming more real, and life is much happier, more useful, and more successful. The vision of the Father's love for all men is so beautiful. "We are made in his image and likeness and are every whit whole."—J. W. A. Gloster, Miss.-I am studying prayerfully the first lesson, and already realize much soul comfort. Everything seems more lovely and beautiful to me.-Mrs. M. E. C. Eureka, Cal. The first lesson of the Correspondence School I feel has done me a vast amount of good, and has helped me to a clearer conception of God.-H. F. H. Hastings-upon-Hudson, N. Y.-I am studying Lesson One and learning something new every time I read it over. I never realized the Lord's Prayer was so wonderful and beautiful. I have said it all my life, because I was taught as a child, and knew it was the right thing to do. It was simply a duty done, and very often left undone; but now after reading this lesson I find so much comfort from repeating it that I want to say it again and again.—Mrs. J. N. R. Sparks, Nev.-I am so thankful to be permitted to study these lessons. It is such a joy to know God as he really is. I thank God daily for the new light that has come to me through the teachings of Unity.-J. F. M. |
