I have known of Christian Science for rather more than two years and I have been identified with it for one year. I became interested through the healing of my brother-in-law, in America. I did not come to it for physical healing, but I now know how much I needed its spiritual uplifting and its restfulness, and it has healed me of many ailments and restored my sight to a state of excellence which I had not known for many years. I am a business woman, and I used to be so tired after a long day's work that sometimes I could scarcely crawl home. Now, even if I do get tired, which is seldom, I can overcome it, and reach home fit and fresh. Christian Science also helps me tremendously in my business,—an establishment of about fifty girls goes on harmoniously, work is plentiful even in times of so-called trade depression, there are fewer mistakes made, and all these improved conditions have come about because I daily realize that God is right here, both in my home and in my business. The interest in this Science is growing in Leeds,—first one and then another asks what Christian Science is, and sometimes the need for it is very sore. I am very grateful to Mrs. Eddy, because through her life-work, faithfully accomplished, I can give words of hope and cheer to many who need them. I am looking forward to the day when we shall have a church and Reading Room in Leeds. Three of us, sometimes more, meet every Sunday to read the Lesson-Sermon, which is a great help. I realize fully that Christian Science is the truth, and that it is our privilege to practise it.—Caroline B. Getty, Leeds, England.
