For over six years the healing truth of Christian Science has been the only medicine in our home. Through six weeks of earnest and conscientious study, the manifestations of a carbuncle disappeared, only a tiny scar remaining. After this, my first demonstration over physical discord, I knew that the Christ-healing stood alone in its efficacy, as it has since proved so many, many times. Colds, headaches, and burns have vanished into their native nothingness. Chilblains of several years' standing were instantaneously healed by the reading, and spiritual understanding, of our invaluable textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy. A habit of biting the finger nails, in this case a so-called hereditary habit for which many material remedies had been applied, was overcome in a very short time; while a quick temper, unkind criticism, harsh judgment, petty nagging, and jealousy are losing their seeming power.

It would take much more than the few words of a testimony even to begin to express my gratitude for this wonderful truth which is daily bringing more harmony and contentment into our home. Our periodicals, too, are continuous and consistent agents for good, always welcome because satisfying the need and desire for spiritual uplift. How reverently we should esteem our Leader, Mrs. Eddy, who through her spiritual understanding could show us how to work out our salvation in the way Jesus taught.
