"Certainly, and we are not proving our right, till we prove the dominion," answered Mrs. Hayden. "It is a beautiful thought to me, and several of the class told of successful work in this line. One lady had treated a frightened horse, and made him so gentle any one could drive him. It is mostly fear that is reflected upon animals. They manifest thought, even as humanity does." "I have often noticed horses. They are apt to show the same disposition as their masters. This explains it," said Mr. Hayden thoughtfully. "Why didn't you write about all this?" "I was afraid it would be too strong meat for you, for I could scarcely realize it myself." "It seems as though we have had so many wonderful suggestions it will take a life time to understand them," remarked Kate. "There is no end to the study of Infinity," was Mrs. Hayden's reply. "How do you account for the _quick_ cures?" interposed Grace. "It all depends upon how quickly one receives the consciousness of Truth. That is the healing process. But there are not very many quick cures, comparatively, though it is the quick cures we should aim for and expect, for the cure is always in the degree of our realization of the allness of God. "Another of the older students told of some wonderful absent healing. A lady that had been four years an invalid, and given up to die by five physicians in the place, was healed in three weeks by absent treatment." "Is that considered as effectual as present treatment?" "There should be no difference, because we ought to realize that with Truth there is no space nor time. All is the eternal _now_ and _here_. Some prefer to give present treatment, especially in acute cases; with others absent treatment seems more effectual." "I am glad to hear that, for I feel that I can do better absently," said Grace, with a look of relief. "But tell me," questioned Kate, eagerly, "have all persons the same gifts?" "In the germ, yes; but all are not equally developed. We enter this study in different stages of unfoldment. Some heal quickly, others slowly; some teach naturally, while others find it more difficult, especially at first. We develop the gift we desire to use by continually claiming it and using it, and bye and bye we shall marvelously prove that we have it. In Love we recognize no partiality, no time and no place, and thus we can truly say all we desire is truly ours." Grace laid her hand on that of Mrs. Hayden, saying: "Words can never express our gratitude to you both for your extreme kindness in allowing us to read your beautiful letters, Mrs. Hayden. They have made life seem entirely different to us." She was deeply in earnest, and her quivering lip spoke more than a volume of words. "Grace speaks for us both," added Kate, huskily.
