Enthusiasm for My Mother’s Life

In sending for four copies of the “Life” of Sister Henry—“My Mother’s Life”—a lady wrote: “I have sold three books without any sample copy, because I am such an enthusiast over the subject that I can talk the book up any way.” To be enthusiastic is literally to be “filled” with a subject, so that it becomes fairly an inspiration. For anyone to be so filled with that book, “My Mother’s Life,” can never do any harm. We only wish all the women of the Woman’s Gospel Work company were so filled with it, both for their own sake and for the sake of their work, and also for the sake of the book. And when one woman can do so well without any sample copy, what should not the many others do with their sample copies?
