In the fall of 1910 I was healed through Christian Science treatment of a very bad chronic condition of the digestive organs; of an extreme condition of nervousness, resulting at times in nervous exhaustion; also of a structural defect of the eyes, for which I had worn glasses for ten years. The oculists told me I would have to wear them all my life, as there was no cure known for this trouble. An inward-growing goiter has likewise disappeared. I had suffered acutely from it the winter before, and the doctor then prescribed a remedy, at the same time warning me that if I ever neglected to apply it there would occur a very rapid growth which would probably prove fatal in a few hours.

After my first treatment in Christian Science the glasses were laid aside, and they have been worn for a moment since. I use my eyes far more than ever before and am never conscious of any feeling in them, whereas before they were almost constantly a source of pain. That night I suddenly realized that my throat was not troubling me, and after considerable argument with myself I decided to retire without applying the usual medicine. This was my first peaceful night, and the next morning I ate the first meal of solid food in many months. I have never since used material remedies, but have depended upon divine Love alone to give and keep me in perfect health. In about two weeks all evidence of the growth had entirely disappeared, and the throat has never trobled me since.

Previous to this time I had tried many remedies and treatments in the modern methods of cures, besides the regular schools of medicine, being a faithful devotee of physical culture, hygiene, gymnasium, and outdoor sports, with the result that the doctors had assured me there was no possibility that I could ever gain a normal condition of health. At the time I turned to Christian Science I was on the verge of another nervous breakdown, which I had been assured would be my last, as the doctors were positive I could never pull through another, and the end seemed very near.
