With profound gratitude and the desire to strengthen the reader's faith I should like to testify to the following benefits which Christian Science has brought to me.

Above all, I am heartily grateful for the many happy hours I have spent in the Christian Science Reading Rooms, at the services, lectures, members' meetings, and among other dear Scientists. At one time I was quickly healed through Christian Science of a severe case of grippe. Later on, in the school for recruits, it strengthened me and gave me fresh courage daily. Through Christian Science I quickly found employment, in spite of unfavorable circumstances. Again, somewhat later, it helped me to overcome a severe experience. When I went abroad I was most beautifully led. I found work in a very short time and also a harmonious home and loving friends.

In Hamburg, in November, 1933, I had a remarkable healing. I injured myself, and the injury developed into a badly suppurating wound. Nevertheless, I refused to have a doctor called and did not apply any material remedies, not even when suddenly there were bad symptoms of blood poisoning; but I asked a practitioner for help. Within three days the symptoms had been entirely healed. I had spent the whole time in reading the textbook, Science and Health by Mary Baker Eddy, and her other works, and I can truly say that I was free from fear, for I had recognized fairly clearly that the condition was only a picture of mortal mind, an association of beliefs; that thought alone had to be corrected, and the sickness would disappear of its own accord.
