Consumption Healed

J. T Lincoln

Last June I contracted a cold, which soon developed into consumption. I had suffered for a number of years with some throat affection. I also had nervous dyspepsia and heart trouble, and had been for some time in a nervous and run-down condition. When my lungs became affected. I soon became so weak that my doctor told me that medicine would do me little or no good, and advised my spending some time at Colorado Springs, Col., where I would be greatly benefited by the climate and mineral waters of that section, but after spending some weeks at the above-named place, I found that I was losing flesh and strength daily, and as materia medica had already abandoned my case, I began reading "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," and afterwards took treatment of a Christian Scientist at that place, who came to me the first time, as I was unable to walk even one block.

The next day (Wednesday) I made an appointment to meet my healer at his house, but did not know how I could do it, as I had about two blocks to walk, besides riding nine blocks in street cars. I managed to crawl there some way, and that afternoon took a ten mile ride, ate a hearty supper, and slept well all night, and by the following Saturday felt that I could walk any place I wished, one of my first feats being a six mile stroll through the canyons.

Three weeks after my first treatment, I started home, a well man.—J. T Lincoln, Kansas City, Mo.
