plane to that of voluntary association or love," and to eliminate "rivalry, jealousy, envy, and stir of personality."
While she was moving about and experimenting, Mrs. Eddy was also engaged in preparing the new edition of Science and Health, which appeared in 1891; and her chief difficulty in getting the book on the market was, as always, mesmerism. She had fled from Boston to escape it, but it was ever on her track and it throve in Concord as well as in Boston and Vermont and Roslindale. The ordinary delays which occur in the best-regulated of pressrooms and binderies, she attributed directly to the results of malicious animal magnetism, and that eminently reliable and decorous establishment, the University Press, was supposed to have been given over to the riotous disorders of demonology. Mrs. Eddy set half a dozen of her students to treating the pressmen and binders against errors and delays, and wrote out an argument for them to use in their treatments. The veteran printer, Mr. John Wilson himself, she assigned, for especial treatment, to her son, E. J. Foster Eddy. The letter in which Mrs. Eddy issued instructions that the treatments upon the press were to begin, was written to Dr. Foster Eddy, and reads as follows:
My Dearest One: Please to go at once to Miss Bartlett and give her the directions inclosed. See Capt. Eastaman and give him the same. After writing out sufficient copies, distribute them as follows:
To Capt. Eastaman, Miss Bartlett; for Mrs. Munroe; Press and Bindery, for Mr. Johnson, Mr. Knapp, Mrs. Knapp.
You keep Mr. Wilson, the printer of Cambridge, under your care alone. Also the Mr. Wilson, or proprietor, whoever he is, in Boston, who manages the bindery, under your care only. You know they cannot be made sick for printing and binding God's book, and you must show your faith by works in this instance.
