"How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things," says Paul in Romans. Christian Science was brought to my mother's attention for the second time, nearly twenty-eight years ago, through our prayers that she be healed of tuberculosis. The first time, when an aunt asked her to try it, she bitterly opposed it. Afterwards she moved to Colorado for her health. Then when this had not accomplished any good, and she was very close to passing on, she accepted Christian Science as a last resort. After much study and the help of a loving practitioner, she was healed, and realized her birthright of dominion. We were all so grateful to Mary Baker Eddy for showing us the Christ-way, that we immediately took up the study of Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy along with the Bible, which we already loved.

As a result of this healing, I had the privilege of many years in the Christian Science Sunday School, under loving teachers who lived close to God. My first healing, as a child, was the laying aside of two pairs of glasses, which had seemed very necessary. I also was healed of a stomach disorder, which had often kept me from school.

During the school term, I often camped in the mountains over week ends. On one of these occasions I was brought home very ill, and quickly became unconscious, in which state I remained for several hours. The family held to the truth about man's relation to God, and called a practitioner. After several hours I was healed. This appeared to have been tick fever, as a tick was found on my body. Again "God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit."
