About three years ago, my wife's attention was called to Christian Science by a dear friend. She became so interested in it that she induced me to borrow for her from the city library here, Mrs. Eddy's book, Science and Health. Sometimes she would read aloud to me, but I could scarcely listen through one page at a time, for the new interpretations aroused a great commotion in my thought, yet I could not take my mind off this Science. I felt that it would affect all humanity and show us the only star of hope,—the conviction that man must become regenerate, in order to be constantly in good health; that health does not depend upon eating, drinking, and medicine, but that man must awake to a higher consciousness, to a purer love, to a better mode of thinking and acting; he must learn not to take away from his neighbor but to give. Then the question presented itself to me: "What will not man do for his health? Is he not willing to make the greatest sacrifice for it?" The answer came, "You cannot buy health with money, you have it with you; every one has it, poor and rich." This book says: Man, be better, purify thy thoughts.

What a power for the future! the social problem will be solved through this revelation, for it is the truth; thousands have testified to it. Thus I gradually grew calmer.

Through the understanding that my wife had gained, she was healed of a regularly appearing sick-headache and was very happy in this new atmosphere of thought.
