With gratitude to the revered Leader of the Christian Science movement, Mary Baker Eddy, for her unselfed labor for humanity, I give my testimony of benefits received. In a very indifferent and critical mood I attended a lecture on Christian Science in September, 1900, through which I learned that Christian Scientists had something that I did not have, and in order to learn what this "something" is I purchased a copy of our textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy, which, in connection with the Bible, I began to study. As a result of this study consitions in everyday living changed for the better. A business venture which had been a failure a few years before was again undertaken, with very limited capital, and was very successful. After some years I became sick with all the symptoms of typhoid malaria, followed by extreme nervousness. A practitioner was called upon for help and absent treatments were lovingly given. The healing was slow, but this had its advantages, for faults of long standing began to disappear, giving place to the truth, peace, and contentment.

I am grateful for membership in The Mother Church, for all of Mrs. Eddy's writings, and for the periodicals, daily, weekly, and monthly.—(Mrs.) Sophie Hassinger Lauffer, Plymouth, Michigan.
