The Value of Science and Health

Addie Towns Arnold

Looking backward over fourteen years many rich blessings come before me as evidence of the knowledge gained through the Christian Science text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures." Often the privilege has been given to present these beautiful truths to those suffering from sin in its many forms and always a benefit if not a perfect healing was realized.

The great value of this book was once shown me when a gentleman who had consumption in its last stage invited me to his bedside where I was permitted to remain a short time. He was so much benefited and interested that he purchased Science and Health, and kept it by him day and night. It proved a great benefit, mentally and physically. All felt his stay here had been prolonged. The suffering lessened, and the family blessed.

A sea captain with his wife came to live in our street. One day he was kicked by a horse on the leg and was unable to do anything for six weeks. After getting out for a few weeks a relapse placed him in bed six weeks more. At this time the trouble was baffling the skill of the physician and a consultation was resorted to. The leg as far as the knee was so black and swollen that amputation was thought necessary.
