Many years ago Christian Science was brought to my attention and it appealed to me principally as a beautiful religion. As I began to apply the teachings of this Science, as given in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptues" by Mary Baker Eddy, discordant physical conditions from which I had suffered for years disappeared.

For our four children, problems such as croup, whooping cough, measles, scarlet fever, and chicken pox were quickly overcome or prevented from developing. I have had many experiences myself proving God's presence and power. Neuralgic headaches of nine years' standing were completely healed; also what was diagnosed by a doctor as intestinal indigestion, which kept me on the strictest possible diet for five years, was entirely overcome. For years now I have been able to eat what is set before me and give thanks.

A very critical condition of muscular contraction, which made it impossible for me to hold my head in an upright position, was also healed with the help of a practitioner. A physician, who was a friend of the family, asked to make an examination. I told him that I was having Christian Science treatment, whereupon he said that Christian Science could not correct this condition—that it would need electrical treatments, and would be a very slow process. I had the blessed privilege of proving to him that Christian Science healed the condition in an incredibly short time.
