Filled with gratitude I wish to testify to healings which were almost instantaneous. When I first heard of Christian Science I was willing at once to accept this healing truth which would free me from all suffering and fear. I had suffered for about a year and a half from a nervous stomach trouble. I had pain daily, and could not go to work. Then when the need was greatest, Christian Science came into my life. I asked for treatment, and in a short time was healed. After I had expressed my gratitude in our church on a Wednesday evening I felt wonderfully happy and joyous. Since this healing nearly two years have passed, and there has been no relapse.

Since my childhood I had almost always had terrible pain in my eyes when they were subjected to the slightest strain. I learned in Christian Science that the real man and the real vision are wholly spiritual and always perfect. I applied this truth persistently and recognized the error as nothing. The pain disappeared at once and has never returned. An intestinal complaint and pain in the black disappeared in the same manner. Loss of voice was healed at once after a simple declaration of Truth by a practitioner. I could tell of many more blessings received. I am happy that God led me to Christian Science. It is my desire to put my gratitude into practice, and to help establish God's kingdom on earth.

I also remember our revered Leader, Mrs. Eddy, with grateful reverence.—(Miss) Else Schwantes, Bielefeld, Westfalen, Germany.
