I did not come to Christian Science for physical healing; but after the passing out of a dear son through an accident I experienced an intense sense of loss which it seemed impossible to overcome. I tried reading the Bible, also going to church,—both of these privileges an exceedingly busy life had taken me completely away from,—but strange as it seemed to me then, the only result was that I sank deeper into the depths, which left me very rebellious. Then Christian Science was offered to me and I began to study it. The first thing I was able to grasp was Mrs. Eddy's statement in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 503), "Infinite space is peopled with God's ideas, reflecting Him in countless spiritual forms." That was a very great comfort to me, and brought a taste of the peace which passes human understanding.

At that time I was in a position which had grown most distasteful to me and which there seemed to be no way out of, as it appeared to be our only source of supply. I was told that when I took a step for the right the way would open, and it so worked out. Everything cleared up beautifully, and I have been enabled to put that experience behind me as a bad dream. Of physical healings my husband, my children, and myself have experienced many,—toothache, severe colds, acute indigestion, hemorrhoids which caused intense suffering, and a very severe attack of neuritis having been overcome.
