An editorial in the Sentinel on "The Activity of Law," brought to my thought an experience which had come to me two weeks before Christmas, 1907. On coming home one afternoon I found the house in great disorder, and saw at a glance that it had been burglarized. I immediately telephoned to a Christian Science practitioner, who came to see me and took up work in Christian Science. In looking things over I found that every article of jewelry in the house had been taken, among others a very valuable watch which had belonged to my late husband, and several other articles which had been in the family many years and were greatly prized. One morning, about a week after this, the door-bell rang, and upon answering the summons I saw a boy about fourteen years old standing at the door. He gave me a box, saying that a man had sent it to me and had said that I would pay his car-fare back, which I did. On the top of the box was written "Merry Christmas," and on opening it I found all the missing articles but one, a diamond ring, which was restored to me a few days later. The boy was found later, and admitted the theft.

This is only one of the many blessings which I have received in Christian Science, all showing the omnipotence and omnipresence of divine Love. I was healed of severe nervous illness ten years ago, and since then my children have been healed of fever, throat trouble, etc. I never realized fully, until I read the editorial I have spoken of, how necessary it is that we should all be constantly awake to the demands of Truth, and it has been a great incentive to me to live every day so that I may be worthy of this wonderful truth and the protection it gives us. Words cannot express my gratitude for what Christian Science has done for me and mine.
