New Light

on Prayer

Most people would pray

how — and knew how prayer could really be effective. Many today feel that ” their own lives, and the world at large, sorely need help that human effort has not brought.

They see that somehow the answer to life's perplexing problems must be sought where power and intelligence have their limitless; beneficent source — the realm of God. Today a great book, the Christian Science textbook

SCIENCE AND HEALTH

WITH KEY TO THE SCRIPTURES by Mary Baker Eddy

is showing mankind as never before how to pray effectively. It reveals a wholly new method of prayer which meets humanity’s need. In heartfelt gratitude many are saying, *' We have “found the way!" Through thoughtful study of this book you can do the same.
