With the sincere hope of helping some one else I give my testimony to the healing efficacy of Christian Science. About five years ago three clinical professors, each a specialist in his line, after thoroughly diagnosing my case, which included investigative operations, pronounced my difficulty to be locomotor ataxia, resulting from a poisoning of the blood of many years' duration. I heard them individually tell their students that my case was incurable, and that the help they could give me would be only of a temporary nature. I allowed one of these medical professors to treat me for six months, but received only slight benefit.

About this time Christian Science was suggested to me by a friend as a help for overcoming stammering of a very pronounced nature, which I had been subject to for several years, and it seemed physically impossible to articulate my own name. I was ready to take the friend's advice and try Christian Science, having received little or no relief from my six months' treatment by the physician. I was the more ready to try it because I had previously given all theological teaching a wide berth, and was therefore ignorant of the nature or existence of Christian Science, which aroused my curiosity because I was free from religious prejudice, and also because of my helpless, despairing mental condition. I did not lose any time in hunting up a Christian Science practitioner, who first advised me to study the literature in the reading room for one week, and then come to her for treatment. I did so and received two treatments, after which every symptom of stammering left me gradually, until I now speak as well as any one. Locomotor ataxia also entirely disappeared and I have been a well man ever since.

A little more than a year ago I thought I would satisfy mortal mind for all time, and so had a test of the blood taken by the best expert in this line in the city where I then was. The result was entirely satisfactory, and was just the opposite of the same test made several years before by the clinic professors.
