After gaining so much benefit from reading the testimonies from the Christian Science Sentinel, I cannot refrain longer from giving public utterance to the blessings and benefits received from Christian Science. I came into Christian Science when a schoolgirl, but not for physical benefits; since then I have been grateful for the knowledge of Christian Science which has lifted me out of discords both mental and physical. It has cured me of colds, chills, fever, nervousness, and an irritable temper. My husband and children have also derived many benefits from the study of Christian Science. Animals and other pets have been healed by its means.

In 1918 I became suddenly ill with influenza and through the loving help of a practitioner I was out of bed in less than a week. That spring, while I was gathering blackberries a dry thorn got into my eye. I closed my eyes and declared the truth, that nothing can harm God's child. After wiping my eye a few minutes later I saw the thorn on the cloth. Words cannot express the gratitude I feel for Christian Science, for the various periodicals, for church privileges, and for the pure and saintly woman, Mary Baker Eddy, who made this beautiful religion possible for us. My prayer is that I may declare "the words of the Lord."

Mrs. W. V. Burns, Rylie, Texas.
