It is with a heart full of love to God that I write my expression of gratitude for the gift of Christian Science. This blessed truth was brought to my notice by a dear sister, whose afflictions had given place to health and happiness. I longed for the text-book, and securing one at the city library, I read it, but without much understanding, as I was so full of gloom and darkness, and it was laid aside. As time went on I was in despair, until one year ago when we moved to Lincoln, Neb. The desire then came to me to attend the Christian Science Wednesday evening meeting. I did so, and found so much peace and contentment that I decided to learn more of this truth. I took it up again, earnestly and prayerfully, and in a short time I was able to lay aside my glasses, which I had worn for nine years. The last oculist I consulted, two years ago, said I had a very bad case of astigmatism, and gave me another pair of glasses. He said I should wear them constantly, but I have not had the least discomfort since laying them off, and there is scarcely an evening that I do not read until half past nine or ten o'clock, something I could never do before without great suffering. I have received many other blessings; headaches, nervousness, constipation, have been healed, and I know I am a better woman mentally, morally, and physically.

I thank God and our dear Leader for this blessed understanding of God and man, as revealed in Science and Health. I am now a member of First Church of Christ, Scientist, of this city, and am striving daily to work, watch, and pray that I may reflect more of Truth and Love.

Mrs. Harle Brookhouser, Lincoln, Neb.
