I desire to express my gratitude for the many blessings I have received, both spiritually and physically, through the study of Christian Science. I was a great sufferer for about twenty-seven years and tried all kinds of remedies. I took at least one hundred and twenty baths of different kinds, in different places; and while I experienced some relief, I was not healed. During this time I was taking doctor's medicines and using liniments all the time.

Finally, about eleven years ago, I took up Christian Science. I had several treatments from practitioners, and can truthfully say that every treatment helped me. The healing of rheumatism was slow; I was finally cured of this ailment through reading the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. I was healed of dyspepsia in one treatment by a practitioner. I was also cured of a trouble caused by erysipelas and a breaking out and itching over my body. Recently I was healed of a sore toe. This troubled me for a few days and kept getting worse, until one night it kept me from going to sleep. The thought came to me that if I would ask God in the proper spirit to relieve me of this pain He would answer my prayer; and while I was doing so the pain left immediately. No one who has not had a similar experience can realize how I felt. Just a short time ago I had a severe pain in my hip, and did not seem able to overcome it. I asked for Science help in the evening, and the next morning it was entirely gone.
