It is over eight years since I first began to read the Christian Science literature. I had worn glasses for five years previous to this time, and after one treatment by a Christian Science practitioner I was able to lay them aside, and have never found it necessary to put them on again. I wish to express my gratitude to God, and to Mrs. Eddy, for all that Christian Science has done for me. I was lifted out of the depths of darkness and despair by this blessed truth. I became an earnest seeker for the good in Christian Science, and within the past year have enjoyed the privilege of class instruction, for which I am very thankful. I have found Christian Science an ever-present help, and words fail to express the great assistance in daily living which I have received from the study of this healing truth.

About four years ago I had occasion to test Christian Science in the case of an accident. While running a swiftly revolving machine I had the bone of one finger severed and a portion of the bone and flesh taken from another. I had a surgeon to dress the hand, but he used no drugs, knowing that it was against my wishes for him to do so. After dressing the hand he told me to call at his office in three days, and he would then put it in splints. In the mean time, however. I had Christian Science treatment and dismissed the surgeon, so that he did not see the hand again after dressing it the first time. I continued the Christian Science treatment, and the fingers healed beautifully. The only pain I experienced was in removing the first bandage. Many of my friends told me that when the bone began to knit it would be very painful, but that law was also overcome, for God's laws bring only peace, harmony, and happiness.
