Eleven years ago two Christian Science ladies called at our home in Lexington, Ky., to see me, then a hopeless invalid, to mortal sense. Every possible attention had been bestowed by a good husband and kind physicians, for years, but I was "nothing bettered." One of the Scientists began treating me, and we borrowed "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures." I read, and my husband read to me, often until midnight. In five days I was eating heartily me, often until midnight. In five days I was eating heartily and doing my housework. We bought Science and Health, "Retrospection and Introspection," "Miscellaneous Writings," and Mrs. Eddy's other works. We also subscribed for the Christian Science Sentinel and Journal, and while it seemed necessary for us to return to and live in our home town, where a Christian Scientist is seldom seen, yet our Quarterly lessons and Christian Science literature are to us a daily spiritual feast. This manna is feeding, healing, and sustaining us, and we are striving to bring others into the fold by loaning our Leader's works and sending out copies of the Sentinel and Journal, that this truth may unfold to their understanding, and that they too may rightly appreciate and love, our dear Leader, and know God as Mind, infinite Love, divine Principle, and His Christ, whom to know aright is life eternal.
