Blight of avarice

There is great danger in teaching Mind-healing indis- criminately, thus disregarding the morals of the student and caring only for the fees. Recalling Jeffer- son's words about slavery, "I tremble, when I remember that God is just," the author trembles whenever she sees a man, for the petty consideration of money,

teaching his slight knowledge of Mind-power, - per- haps communicating his own bad morals, and in this way dealing pitilessly with a community unprepared for self- defence.

A thorough perusal of the author's publications heals sickness. If patients sometimes seem worse while read- ing this book, the change may either arise from the alarm of the physician, or it may mark the crisis of the disease. Perseverance in the perusal of the book has generally completely healed such cases.
