I would like to tell of a demonstration we had a few weeks ago. My mamma and papa were attending a church business meeting, and my little Christian Science friend was to stay with me. We were having a happy time and had been reading in Science and Health, when, about nine o'clock, I was taken very suddenly with sore throat. I knew what that meant, for I used to have tonsilitis very often before I became a Christian Scientist. We went to bed and both of us worked hard to overcome the trouble, but I seemed to be burning up with fever. Papa and mamma came home late, and all I asked for was a drink of water, I did not voice the error. About two o'clock mamma heard me make a choking sound, and came to my room and stayed with me the rest of the night. By morning the fever was gone. This was Friday morning, and on Saturday I was out and went to the reading room. I am thirteen and attend the church and Sunday School. I want to do all the good I can. I feel very grateful to God, and to our Leader, Mrs. Eddy.

Marguerite Welper, Owosso, Mich.

My path has been by on means one of flowers since coming to Christian Science, but the way grows brighter. All that I have that is worth having, and all I am, I owe to the understanding which has come to me through the study of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy, in connection with the Bible. Before coming to Christian Science I had been an invalid for a great many years. I had not only one ailment, but several, one of which was of twenty-six years' standing, but it responded quickly to the truth while other ills yielded more slowly. My love for our dear Leader, and the Cause of Truth has prompted this testimony.—E. B. N., Cleveland, O.
