James C. Thomas

For many benefits received through Christian Science I am very grateful. At one time ptomaine poisoning, accompanied by very distressing conditions, was overcome quickly. A case of foot poisoning which threatened to prevent my walking was healed almost instantaneously with the realization that man's footing is indeed on the rock, Principle. Eczema was healed in a short time. Another person in the same house where I was living had the same physical manifestations, and used material remedies. Two years were required to eradicate the trouble in that case. A burned hand resulting from the explosion of a gas furnace was so quickly relieved of pain that it was used for three hours' work in typewriting in a newspaper office the same night as the accident.

Experiences in automobile driving over desert and isolated mountain roads have proved the protecting power of Christian Science. At one time while going down a steep mountain grade at a rapid pace, the machine skidded half around on a sheet of ice. Although the road was barely wide enough to allow the length of the automobile to turn in it, neither the car nor passengers were injured. On another occasion the automobile had backed into a ditch by the side of the road on a steep grade after the engine had stopped. A member of the party who was not interested in Christian Science said the car could not be driven out of the ditch, and prepared to spend the night on the mountain, many miles from any habitation; but within one hour the machine was extricated unimpaired. Later every member of the party gave credit for this demonstration to Christian Science.—James C. Thomas, Boston, Mass.
