When my baby was a year old we had a demonstration of the healing power of Christian Science, which is only one of many that we have had. He was playing around near me when I noticed that one of his hands was very badly swollen, and the skin between the fingers had turned very dark. My first thought was of infection, as the skin on one finger was scratched, and for a minute I was frightened. I immediately called a practitioner and asked her to treat the baby. This was about one o'clock in the afternoon. That same evening the hand was better and by the third day all trace of swelling and discoloration was gone. That which made the greatest impression on me at this time was that the baby did not at any time while the condition lasted manifest any sign that the hand pained or bothered him in any way.

My husband was also wonderfully healed of a severe attack of influenza, being well and strong and about his work in three weeks. Since that time he has enjoyed the best of health and weighs more than he ever did. We are both very grateful for the physical help we have had in Science, but a great deal more so for the understanding of God which we have gained through Mrs. Eddy's writings and the Christian Science periodicals.
