My heart is so full of gratitude to divine Love, to our Leader, and to all the Christian Science friends who have so patiently borne with my egotism and eager questioning, that I will try to give my testimony to the great blessing which Christian Science has brought me. One year ago I began reading "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy. I borrowed the copy from the Christian Science rooms in Olean, N. Y. I had been reading so-called mental science, and wished to see how Christian Science differed from what I had read. I became absorbed in the reading of Science and Health, and for months read nothing else. I soon bought a copy, subscribed for the Sentinel, Journal, and Quarterly, and have faithfully persevered in their study.

From the first of my study of Science and Health I have been able to realize the truth sufficiently to meet nearly all the manifestations of error of a physical nature which appeared in myself and family.

Two tumors have disappeared; a partially paralyzed arm is restored; grip of a violent nature has been overcome, a sty on the eyelid disappeared in a few hours; lumbago, the periodic attacks of which were my terror, was met about the first thing and has never returned. These are only a few of the troubles which were seemingly established in my mentality, and which have vanished before the light of Truth. I have twice employed a practitioner with most satisfactory results. A few weeks ago I was overcome by a sense of fear in a case of uterine hemorrhage, with great pausea and congestive chills. This was overcome with my practitioner's help in twenty-four hours, and after a week's treatment all of the usual after effects of pallor, heart disturbance, and weakness entirely disappeared, while in a like attack with a regular physician I was in bed two weeks and unable to do much of any work for months.
