With heart overflowing with gratitude to God, to Christ Jesus, the Way-shower, and to Mary Baker Eddy, the revelator of Christian Science to this age, I wish to give a few instances in which the wealth of divine Love has brought healing in its wings to my family and to me.

For nearly thirty years our needs have been met physically and spiritually by Christian Science. The condition known as grippe or influenza has several times been healed, in one case when a condition closely bordering upon pneumonia had developed. A sudden and most alarming case of scarlet fever was met and mastered in an hour's time. The following morning the patient was heard expressing gratitude in song.

Some six or eight years ago, realizing the presence of unusual conditions in my mouth, I visited a dentist, who made no effort to disguise his regret and chagrin at finding what he termed necrosis of the bone. His disturbance seemed so great, and it so reached upon me that I scarcely realized what he was doing until he had telephoned for a surgeon and the latter had arrived. The mouth was again examined, and the statement made that an X-ray picture should be taken at once to determine how far the bone was involved, and then an operation should follow as soon as possible. I told them that Christian Science had heretofore met all our needs, and that I felt it should be my first remedy at this time; and after assuring them of my appreciation of and gratitude for their desire to help, I walked home, knowing all the way that Love would direct me. I asked a Christian Scientist for help. His earnest, consecrated work, together with my own endeavor to appropriate the truths of Christian Science, brought the complete healing.
