When I was a small child my parents turned to Christian Science for healing. From that time we have relied entirely upon Christian Science in our home, and have found that the application of its rules has met our every need.

I realize now, more than I did at the time, how helpful this understanding was to me during my school days, and how I was protected and guided through many trying experiences. The practicability of Truth has been proved, too, in the business world; and now in the home there are opportunities to apply it daily.

It would be difficult to enumerate all the benefits I have received; but I wish to express gratitude for the healing of neuritis, varioloid, a severe case of typhoid fever, sick headaches, pleuro-pneumonia, a weak back, and extreme nervousness and timidity. I am thankful for a better manifestation of general health. It was brought to my attention some years ago that I should not only feel well but should express health —for I had up to that time looked frail. When I was awakened to this and claimed my dominion as God's child, I found that I did express more freedom in every way, and that I looked perfectly well.

While the periodicals of The Christian Science Publishing Society, so lovingly provided by our Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, do not in any way take the place of our Leader's writings, they are always helpful. I am thankful, too, for the many activities of The Mother Church. I owe a great debt of gratitude to Mrs. Eddy for the unselfed love and courage with which she stood alone in establishing the Cause of Christian Science, that we to-day might have a means to obtain that understanding of God, divine Principle, which would enable us to solve all our problems.—(Mrs.) Geraldine Hubbard Hooper, St. Louis, Missouri.
