I wish to testify to the rich blessings which have been mine through Christian Science. For many years I had been a constant sufferer from many complicated physical ailments, among them locomotor ataxia, kidney and bladder disturbances, rheumatism, neuralgia, and a constant pain in the face, all of which rendered life unbearable. I was a heavy burden to my family, both financial aid and constant care being required of them during the many years of my illness. Physicians could give but temporary relief, and as declining years approached all hope of recovery was given up.

In this deplorable condition Christian Science found me, and I was gently led to see the light of the guiding star of being for myself, even the very clear perception that there is no death. I have been entirely healed of all these ailments, and words are inadequate to express my gratitude. For my future guide I have God and the Bible. Mrs. Eddy's books are a rich legacy left by this inspired woman for the benefit of mankind.

I have just returned from a trip extending to the middle West, while before my healing I would have considered this an impossible ordeal. Although seventy-one years old and traveling alone, I had no sense of fear and no weariness, but a peculiar joyousness in the renewal of strength and the abiding peace which Christian Science has brought into my experience.
