I wish to express my gratitude for what Christian Science has done for me and my family. About eight years ago my wife was healed of a lump or growth in the breast. At that time we knew very little of Christian Science. She was told by a physician that the only remedy was the removal of the growth by a surgical operation. This caused greater fear, and the growth enlarged. She then went to a Christian Science practitioner; and in less than three weeks the growth had entirely gone.

My first physical healing in Christian Science was that of acute kidney trouble. After I had been treated about three weeks by a physician, who called another in consultation, my family was informed that they had done all they could, and that I would not get well. A Christian Science practitioner was then called, and in less than two weeks I was up; and in two weeks more went to my business. Since that time Christian Science has been our only help in time of physical discord. A little more than three years ago I was stricken with influenza, made so prevalent at that time by universal fear. After suffering for ten or twelve hours a practitioner was called, who came to see me about seven o'clock in the evening, remaining about one hour; after which I slept soundly all night, arising a little after the usual time. The following Monday I went to my work.

Our twelve-year-old boy has been healed of whooping cough, measles, and extreme nervousness. For these healings and the spiritual uplift following, and the many blessings that Christian Science is bringing to all mankind, I am profoundly grateful.
