After having had twelve physicians work on my case of severe stomach trouble, and after spending months in a sanitarium and weeks in a hosptial, I decided to investigate Christian Science. I had been a church-member since I was a child, and had always heard Christian Science criticized and lightly spoken of, so I had but little faith in it until I called upon a practitioner, and after talking with her a short while was convinced that it was indeed the truth, and I would try the treatment. The physicians had told me that my stomach would never be well again, as it seemed to be greatly injured by the strong drugs which I had taken. I had not been able to eat any solid food for a year, but after receiving three treatments in Christian Science I was able to eat a hearty supper, and have been able to eat anything that I wished to ever since.
On another occasion a severe attack of toothache was relieved in one treatment. I also had a very large tooth extracted without pain under Christian Science treatment, although the dentist insisted it would hurt me unless he used an anesthetic. Later, I had an attack of acute lung trouble, and at first I had great fear about my condition, but I called on a faithful practitioner who had helped me in the cases before mentioned. After spending two nights and two days in bed, on the third night, after eating my supper, I got up, dressed myself, and went to a Wednesday evening meeting, where I took an active part, knowing that our every need is supplied by divine Love.
I am very grateful for what Christian Science has done for me, and for the higher knowledge it has given me of the God who is Love, "the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever."—Mrs. D. S. Stone, St. Augustine, Fla.
