I too would add to the unnumbered thousands a statement of my profound gratitude for the revelation of Christian Science and healing. When I was four or five years old a very dear aunt visited us, and she was a Christian Scientist. She told me many beautiful things which left me hungering for more, and when I found myself slipping into corrupt practices for want of better guidance, I went to my aunt's home under the pretense of gaining further education. There I soon began to learn with her help a little of the truth and beauty of holiness as we learn it in Christian Science.

A little more than four years ago, when I started to college, I was suffering from a rupture of long standing which caused me no little discomfort. Having always liked athletics and sports, I asked for help from a Christian Science practitioner, and in a very short time was completely healed and "made" the team for which I was a candidate.

When I began to study Christian Science I soon realized that my progress would be much more rapid and my physical and moral condition would be improved if I overcame the tobacco habit. I had smoked both pipe and cigarettes steadily for six or seven years. With the help of a practitioner I was able to overcome this false appetite, and I seldom if ever think of it may more. I feel freer, cleaner, and more active since I have ceased from these "burnt offerings" to false gods.
