Christian Science had been but a name to me for years

Christian Science had been but a name to me for years. I classed it with faith-healing, mind-reading, etc. A year ago, a friend who was a Scientist suggested that as a practitioner had come to Geneva, I should send my daughter to her. This daughter had, since childhood, suffered from severe sick headaches. No remedies, no doctor ever helped her, and we were glad to try something new. Her cure has been gradual, but she has gained in health and strength, and the attacks are more rare and not so severe. I myself was quickly cured of rheumatic gout of years standing in two or three treatments. Another daughter was relieved of a painful swelling in her foot. For five years she had suffered intensely from this trouble, but a few treatments caused it to disappear.

Several other cases have come under my notice during the year, including the lameness of a young girl, deafness, insanity, and white swelling of the knee; they all have yielded to treatment. One remarkable case was that of a boy who had suffered a year with paralysis of the nerves. All one side of him was affected, including the eye, which had sunk back into his head. A woman affected with hernia for fourteen years has been cured, as well as her paralytic child, by Christian Science treatments.

A case of a man afflicted with heart disease, was most interesting. He was refused a life insurance policy by the company's doctor, after which he turned to Christian Science, and after two months' treatment returned and renewed his application for a policy. He was found to be in good condition, with no trace of heart disease.
