I am in my twenty-first year, and Christian Science has been the only physician and religion, I have ever known. All my life I have had good health and have certainly enjoyed life as we are taught in Christian Science. I can honestly say that I have never been ill in my whole life for a longer period than three days at any one time. Under the guidance of the loving care of my mother, who is a loyal and true student of Christian Science, I have been enabled to help myself in meeting all the discords that daily come to us to be destroyed. Christian Science has taught me to love my brother as myself, for we are all brothers and sisters in God's kingdom, as we are the image and likeness of our Father. I know that I can never realize to the fullest extent my great blessing in having known Christian Science so early in life.

I think that never to have known or have been taught what fear was, is one of the things for which I am most grateful. When a child, my playmates would have seeming difficulties which mortal mind said were contagious, and though sometimes I was exposed to them, there were never any ill effects. Why? Because I had the knowledge with me every moment that man is God's perfect child, and I had no thought of fear, as I had never been taught to fear disease, but on the contrary had been taught its unreality and nothingness.

And so it has been in all my life. It was through Christian Science that I secured my present position, which is one of most harmonious surroundings, and this only helps to prove that Christian Science is not only for our physical needs, but for everthing for which we turn to it.
