For six years I was a sufferer from nervous prostration

M. E. Jenkins

For six years I was a sufferer from nervous prostration. In the fall of 1900 I had a very severe attack of palpitation of the heart. A physician was called, and after the examination I was told that the heart made one hundred and eight beats a minute. I could eat but very little. I tried different physicians, and everything else that I could hear of, but with only temporary relief. In December, 1903, I heard of Christian Science, but did not become interested at the time. I grew worse all the time, and was not able to take care of my household duties. Then I was ready to give up my medicine, but the next morning I was unable to go to a practitioner, and I asked my husband to do so. He saw the practitioner and she promised to help me. I began to improve from the very first treatment. I could eat anything without distress, my strength returned, and I could do all my work, for which I am very grateful. The Bible means much more than ever before, through the study of our text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy. I am grateful for all the Christian Science literature; it is a great help in every way. I have been a student of Christian Science less than a year, and my husband has also taken up the study. I am grateful to God, and also to our dear Leader.
