one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is above all and through all, and in you all," whereby "we all come into the unity of faith and the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of Christ Jesus."

UNITY is in full fellowship with all that makes for this end. There is only unity in truth; error has no unity. The carnal mind disintegrates through differences, the Spiritual mind builds up through similarities. We recognize only the oneness of the truths being taught by all, and not the differences and personal methods of teaching. On the fundamental principles of Truth the Christian world is a unit.

We thank our thousands of subscribers for their hearty co-operation in publishing to the world the Gospel that heals and saves both body and soul, and it is without worldly pride but for your information we say that Unity Headquarters is today doing more work, healing more afflicted, brightening more hearts, distributing more literature, disseminating more truth to congregation and class, and through the printed page, and has more efficient help, each in the business department, printing department, and Silent Unity, than ever before. Hundreds of new names have been added to our subscription lists and to the Society of Silent Unity.

Knowing that God-is-with-us, UNITY begins its second cycle of twelve under most encouraging conditions. It will continue to carry the messages of Good to the world gladly and freely, and you will find no copyright upon it. If it carries God's truths, shall He not care for them? Lowell has said, "Truth defensive, hath lost hold on God." Its pages will always be filled with simple language, teaching the nature, the possibilities, the capacities, the God-powers, the divinity of the Christ, which is in all. Its object is ever to dispense health, happiness and prosperityharmony in every department of being, and harmony is heaven. God blesses you all.

Friends who send us articles which they expect printed in UNITY should always keep a copy of them. We put all the good contributions on file for future use, but the supply being so much in excess of our space there is quite an accumulation of manuscripts, and it is frequently months or years before they are used. This is especially true of poetry.

A DEDICATION,

Sunday, June 10, 1900, was a notable day at Holton, Kansas, the occasion being the dedication of the beautiful chapel of the Divine Truth Home. It was the triumph of Truth through Mrs. Vivia A. Leeman after years of loving devotion and earnest, sincere work, The chapel consists of two fair-sized rooms, papered with a rich delicately tinted pink shade, symbolizing love, the keynote of all success, and are elegantly furnished with moquette rugs, a piano-organ, stands, etc. With beautiful flowers in profusion, a large congregation, and the dedicatory services, the occasion was inspiring. Many friends were present from Onaga and Topeka, Kansas, Kansas City, Mo., and other places. In the afternoon at 3 o'clock Mrs. Leeman read appropriate Scripture, and addresses were delivered by Mr. and Mrs. Fillmore and Chas, E. Prather, of Kansas City, Mo. An elegant solid silver freewill offering dish, lined with gold and handsomely engraved, was presented to the Home by Holton friends, and was dedicated for its office by Mrs. Fillmore, who explained the reciprocal relation each bears to the progress of Christianity. In the evening Mr. Fillmore delivered an impressive lecture on "Understanding," which was followed by the dedication by Mr. Prather of "The Song of the Twentieth Century," composed by Mrs. Leeman and the music by Miss Clare Fowler. Between services refreshments were served, and the occasion will long be remembered by all present. God speed the work at Holton.
