Letters & Conversations

Dear Journal :— I cannot help but see how graphically yon described my own experience in the article relating to the prophet Jonah. It seems to me to be my literal experience.

Dear Journal :— You ask for instances of slow demonstrations and I think my experiences have been slow enough to encourage the slowest. I always hated to wait.

Chicago, Ill. , Feb.

I had been for twelve or more years an invalid, although everything which medical science and its physicians (who were principally specialists in large cities) advised, was promptly tried for my relief by a kind husband and friends, regardless of expense or trouble. My husband heard of Christian Science in a grocery store, where the husband of the Scientist who afterward became my healer, had dropped a seed of Truth.

Live Love —and you will find it will melt a heart of adamant. For over two years, I was made miserable by my husband's bitter opposition to Christian Science, when I finally awakened to the fact that it was not Christian Science that caused the trouble, but the lack of it in myself.

I never really saw a well day, after a long and strange illness of more than a year ago. I finally realized something must be done, for I was fast drifting again into the same severe pain in my head, and other ailments.

The Utica Daily Press of recent issue gives an extended account of the Coroner's Inquest held in the case of Mrs. George Canfield, who died a short time since in Booneville, New York.

Whenever I have thought of "casting in my mite" of testimony, through the Journal, words have seemed so weak to express what Christian Science has done for me that I have refrained from making the attempt. But if Truth guides the pen, the little that I can give may not be altogether in vain.

Cambridge, Mass. , October 23, 1893.

I am only a child in Christian Science, but all the world could not buy from me what I have already learned from studying Science and Health. My health had been very poor indeed, and finally I was forced to give up business.
