With deep gratitude I desire to give testimony of the rich blessings which I have experienced in Christian Science. I heard of it through my mother about five years ago.

I was ill and delicate from childhood and a constant care to my family and the physicians. Through the earnest study of the textbook, the other works of our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, and the Heralds I have become a happy child of God. Weak eyes and heart failure have disappeared, and I can only inadequately express my sense of gratitude for this. While going to school I had to give up sewing, drawing, and gymnastics. Sports and excursions were entirely prohibited. I had proof of God's supremacy and love during the influenze epidemic in 1919; I was tied to my bed for two weeks, but through the help of a loving practitioner I recognized the error and was freed from it. I am very grateful to the dear practitioner, to friends and acquaintances who have led me in the way of Truth.

I give thanks daily to God, our Father, that he gave strength to our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, to reveal the truth to us.—Emma Schumacher, Biel, Switzerland.
