Dyspepsia Healed

Mr. John C. Higdon, a prominent lawyer of St. Louis, Mo., in an article recently published in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, thus testifies of his own healing through Christian Science.

For twenty-three years I was an inveterate user of tobacco, smoking some days fifteen cigars and chewing between times. For fourteen years I suffered with dyspepsia or indigestion, accompanied finally by ulceration of the stomach, causing untold agony. I exhausted every approved remedy that physicians prescribed or friends suggested. I purchased medicines at wholesale rates. Finally one physician frankly told me he could not cure me. I tried the following remedies: Horseback and bicycle riding, walking, cold and hot baths, wood sawing, punching the bag, travel, sea baths, famous mineral waters, and mountain climbing. I steadily grew worse.

Four years ago, as a last resort, I tried Christian Science. In three days I was cured. The tobacco habit left me. Afterward I tried to smoke, but the cigar was distasteful. I have taken no remedies whatever, yet I have gained forty-five pounds in weight and the healing is permanent.
