When I took up Christian Science some three years ago, I was in utter despair, despondent and discouraged. For years I had been a sufferer from many physical discords, and although I was almost constantly under the care of a physician I never received any permanent relief. While my healing in Christian Science has in some respects seemed slow and is not yet entirely complete, still I can hardly realize how much Christian Science has done for me and what a complete change it has brought about in my thinking and living.

I have been healed of the smoking habit of more than twenty-five years' standing, of so-called chronic stomach disorder and bowel trouble of still longer standing, and my eyesight has been restored after wearing glasses for twenty years. It is now eight months since I destroyed my glasses, and I have had no further need of them. For many years even with glasses I could hardly bear bright sunlight or wind, but now I do not notice any strain from either, and my eyes are strong and good for constant use.

While very grateful for these and many other physical healings, I am far more grateful for the peace and harmony which Christian Science has brought into my home and business life, and for the realization of God's ever-presence and all-power to meet every human need.
