I feel it my duty to tell the Field a few of the many helpful experiences we have had since we have tried to live up to the teachings of Christian Science. About five years ago, a friend who was visiting at our home, an invalid for many years, had just begun to take treatments, and was receiving much benefit. It led my husband to look into Science and Health, and he became interested at once. I could not understand it for a time, until I saw some healing done in our own family, then I could not help but be interested when I saw such wonderful work. My husband had very severe pain in his head and eyes so he could not see for a number of days. He was instantaneously healed by absent treatment. He was also healed of a broken rib in the same way.

We have had many beautiful demonstrations in our family since coming to Christian Science. It would take more space than I can ask for to tell it all. One I would like to mention which we had when our last baby girl was born. I formerly had great fear at such times, for I had usually suffered much weakness for weeks afterwards. This time all seemed harmonious and natural. I suffered no inconvenience at all and sat up the next day and took care of my baby without any bad effects. I got up the third day and did my own work. Where can such freedom come from but from God?

Our four children have been rescued from the jaws of death by the truth, and words fail to express my gratitude to Mrs. Eddy, who has worked so patiently for us. We have a nice little church here. We started services in January, 1903, and now there are about twenty-one in regular attendance, including the children. May God bless all the workers in His vineyard is my daily prayer.
