I became interested in Christian Science while studying medicine at one of the universities, and soon afterward was led to discontinue this study. I did not realize it at the time, but have since appreciated many times what a blessing this was for me. A healing which my father experienced, of a chronic stomach trouble, was the direct cause of my becoming interested in Christian Science; for, although I did not entirely understand how this healing had been brought about, I could not but believe that it was through God's healing power. Since that time I have been healed of many physical ailments and have been helped numerous times through trying business troubles.

Extreme gratitude is felt for the healing of the tobacco habit of many years' standing. Like most smokers, I justified the habit in my own thinking by feeling that it afforded me comfort and pleasure. There were many times, nevertheless, when I knew that it was not a source of true enjoyment, and would have given it up had I known how. Through the help of a loving practitioner, whom I had asked to help me with a physical ailment, the desire to smoke left me completely, and has never returned.
