Lumbago attacks cease; corns disappear
A slight understanding of the truths taught in the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, has so transformed my everyday experiences that my gratitude is unbounded.
From boyhood I had spasmodically attended services of various denominations in search of my creator and the reason for my being, but failed to find satisfaction. While in this slate of mind, I observed my wife rending the textbook at every available opportunity. I remarked that not only was the book absorbing her interest, but that she was not wearing the glasses she usually wore when reading. She replied that now she had no need of them as she had proved the truth taught in the book, and that its readers could demonstrate in their personal experience the divine Principle of healing.
This entirely natural healing so impressed me that I felt compelled out of curiosity to read the book. While I pondered the truths contained in the book, my health improved perceptibly, and my business conditions improved beyond expectation. I found that the desire for tobacco and alcohol left me as the desire for spiritual understanding grew.
