With a deep feeling of gratitude for all the wonderful help received from the study of Christian Science I wish to relate a healing which stands out above all others. While remedying an obstruction in a lift shaft of about three feet squire, I slipped off the ladder and fell about sixteen feet to the floor. My fellow workmen ran to my aid and helped me to rise, while I clung fast to the truth. My employer was very kind to me and wanted me to go to the hospital but I explained my reasons for not going and quietly assured him that God could heal me. When I came from the shaft I was unable to walk at all, but I later walked to the train and from the train home. I was away from work just ten days and my friends. and relatives were surprised at such wonderful results. To mortal sense it was a miracle. I obtained the help of a practitioner and am grateful for the lessons that unfolded during the stay at home.

I am grateful beyond words for this wonderful proof of God's care, and my desire is so to live as to be worthy of the name Christian Scientist—which desire brings daily blessings. I am grateful for our wonderful periodicals, and a sincere love is felt for our dear Leader, Mrs. Eddy, for giving to mankind a demonstrable understanding of the truth that frees.—Arthur William Burkmar, London, England.
