It is now two years since I came to Christian Science for healing, and I was not left comfortless. My need was very great. I was a physical wreck, having gone through one operation and being threatened with another. I had nothing to depend on for my living but my own efforts and those of a little daughter. I was greatly discouraged, for I had tried materia medica only to be condemned to lifelong invalidism. Finally, a friend advised me to try christian Science, and I went to a practitioner. I sat sobbing all the time, during the first treatment, and was scarcely able to tell her of my condition, but I went away with a lighter heart, and next day was able to tell her all. Under her direction I left off a brace which I had worn for nine months, and never missed it, except in my relief from the disagreeable sensation caused by wearing it. In ten days, work was provided for me, and I was able to do it, something my friends thought I would never be able to do again. In six weeks I was well, and I have grown stronger and gained in weight right along. Peace and harmony have come into my life, and the way grows brighter as I gain more understanding. From being a diffident, self-conscious woman, I have grown to be independent and helpful. There have been many things to meet, but Christian Science has proved sufficient for every need.

I am very grateful to our dear Leader, who has so patiently worked and prayed for the understanding which she has given to the world in Science and Health. I am also grateful to all who contribute to the Sentinel and Journal, from which I receive so much help.

Mrs. M. P. Taber, Spokane, Wash.
