I wish to give my testimony to the healing power of Christian Science. It is now two and a half years since I first heard of it. My little daughter had been suffering from St. Vitus's dance for two years. At times she was well enough to attend school, but only for about two weeks; then she would be ill again for two months. A dear friend asked me to try Christian Science. I did so, and saw my child gradually getting better. She attended school soon after treatment had been taken up for her, and has been able to continue. It was not a quick healing, but as I began to see that disease was no part of God's child and that she could only manifest perfection, the sickness began to disappear. I have had many proofs of the ever presence of God, and hope to express some of the gratitude I feel in giving this testimony. Last spring a younger child fell ill with scarlet fever. I at once went to a practitioner for treatment, which was lovingly given; the fever was destroyed, sore throat was also overcome in a few hours, and on the sixth day the child was out playing. The work was so perfect that infection had no place; no fear of it was present, as we were trusting and dwelling in the law of divine Science. Sickness of any kind has no power when one realizes the omnipresence of God. I am grateful for all the blessings I have received through Christian Science, to the dear friend who first brought it to me, and for the loving help of the practitioner.

It is with a grateful heart that I can testify to the healing and regenerating power of Christian Science. I knew nothing of this wonderful truth until my return from Palestine last May, when I turned to it in gratitude for what it had done for my family during the latter part of my absence abroad. The services so impressed me that when a month later I was in the grip of ague and malaria I was able to turn my back on quinine and place myself in the loving hands of a practitioner. Not only was I cured but all fear of the return of the complaint was destroyed.
