This testimony is given with the hope that it will brighten the outlook for some suffering heart, as testimonies of a similar nature have brightened mine. After having lived a very material life for many years, I became a nervous wreck. Five doctors treated me, but to no avail. One specialist said I was organically perfect; that I would have to "grin and bear it," and in time would work out of it. However, this was not an easy task, as I was literally afraid of my own shadow.
Finally I decided to try Christian Science, but told the practitioner I thought it a joke. To my surprise, instead of getting angry at my frankness he patiently explained what this Science is. As a result of Christian Science treatment I have laid aside glasses, which had been used since I was seven years of age, and have been freed from the liquor and tobacco habits, as well as healed of the terrible nervous condition. I am now a picture of health and never felt so well in my life. Our baby, three months old, has been healed of whooping-cough, and scarlet fever and other ailments too numerous to mention have been overcome. I have also been helped financially.
It has been my privilege to help many with the slight understanding I have gained of this accurate Science, and I am most grateful to Mrs. Eddy for her untiring efforts to give the world this wonder of wonders. My desire is that my thankfulness to God may be shown by living the life He would have me live.—Josef Le Maire, New York, N. Y.
