Christian Science was brought to my notice several years ago by a dear friend, who had investigated it. I hold her in grateful remembrance for the self-sacrifice and patient love with which she endeavored to help me in time or need. I am also truly grateful to my strong and loyal teacher, who guided my thought into the way of understanding, when I learned the beauty of holiness and the true sense of healing from sin and sickness, which is embodied in Christian Science. Only my heart can tell God how grateful I am for His goodness in giving us dear Mrs. Eddy, even choosing one from among us to lead us out of bondage, that we might know our Father and gain the true birthright of every child of God. We owe our dear Leader untold love for listening to the voice that called, and for obeying the commands from on high. What a work has been hers! With long-suffering patience, loving and true to her calling, she has gently led us on and on, and to make our journey safe, that we may not go astray, she has given us the guide-book of Truth. "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures." We treasure this blessed book in our home, for we have proved by our healing that it is divinely inspired. It gives us an understanding of the Scriptures, which indeed makes it a book of revelation. The Sentinel and Journal are also great benefits to me and mine. We have found help and comfort many times from the contributions, so filled with admonition and love, and we have a kindred affection toward all who contribute aid to the needy, strength to the weak, food and drink to the hungering and thirsting ones, through those sacred pages. The gospel of Truth and Love, seems to fill the cup of salvation to the brim, until nothing is left but God,—good. For all these manifold blessings we are unspeakably grateful.—Alice Lura Jones, Chicago, Ill.
