I desire to tell of demonstration that occurred in our home which certainly proves that God is an ever-present help in time of need. One evening when my mother was preparing for bed. she was taken with a cough, but we did not give any attention to it. At half past eleven she called me. At that time she could scarcely speak above a whisper, and her breath came with difficulty. The cough was much worse and gave unmistakable signs of croup. We did the best we could with the little understanding of Truth that we have, when suddenly my mother seemed to lose her mind and did not understand anything. It was then that I sent for my father, who is night-watchman in a factory, and I also telephoned to a practitioner for help. Strange as it may seem to some, it is nevertheless true, that in less than fifteen minutes she was in her right mind and much improved. She gained so fast that when my father arrived, in about a half hour, she was breathing easily, and the cough had nearly disappeared. In two hours and a half she went to bed and rested until morning. The next day she performed the usual household duties, and the following day attended the regular Sunday services. We are truly thankful to God, and grateful to Mrs. Eddy, through whom this truth has come to the world.
