It was several years ago that I first became interested in Christian Science. A lady moved next door to our home, who radiated much love and happiness. I soon found that it was through the demonstration of Christian Science that this neighbor reflected the qualities I so much desired to have myself. I began to read the copies of the Christian Science Sentinel which she kindly lent to me; but, although it seemed easy for her to demonstrate the truth, I was afraid to take up the study, not wishing to leave my own church at that time.

Some time passed, and at last I took my stand for Christian Science, One day, as I was seated in a carriage, ready for a ride, the horse became suddenly frightened, and ran away. I had not proceeded far when I knew my only protection from harm must come from God. Declaring His allness, I gained in a moment's time a sense of peace. The carriage was overturned; and I was thrown upon the hard ground, just missing by a few inches being hurled against a telephone pole. My body was bruised in such a manner that those who came to help me thought I would be confined to a bed for some weeks. I had my husband call up a friend for Christian Science help, which was lovingly given; and in a very few days I was again walking down the street. From that time on I continued in the study of Truth, as taught by our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy. My gratitude knew no bounds. My husband took up the study also; and a young son was placed in the Sunday school of the Christian Science church.
