I wish to tell of a demonstration made for me by my mother. When I was four years of age, I jumped on a broken lamp-chimney, making a deep cut, over two inches in length, in the instep of my foot. It was a long time before I could wear my shoe, and at times, when walking a long distance, I would suffer great pain. All this happened before my parents came into Christian Science, but about four years ago, when this place in my foot began to give me pain again, I told my mother about it, and asked her to treat me. She did so, and in a very short time a growth began to make its appearance on the old scar. A few mornings later, as I was walking across the room, I seemed to feel something cutting my foot. I took a needle and opened the outside skin, and could feel something solid against the point of the needle. My husband being at home I called him, and he opened the place and removed a curved piece of glass nearly half an inch long, which had been in my foot for sixteen years. It seemed as if the foot had healed just as fast as the glass had cut its way out, for the next morning after this took place it was hard to tell where the wound was.

Many other things have been overcome in our home—smallpox, broken bones, fevers, etc., through the understanding of Christian Science as given to us by our dear Leader, Mrs. Eddy.

Mrs. Anna M. Young, Caldwell, Kan.
