Testimonies of Healing

I feel it my duty to show the public what Christian Science has done for me. I have been a sufferer for about forty years' afflicted with many ailments,—chronic catarrh, rheumatism, heart-disease, dyspepsia.

For five years I had what my physician said was dropsy around the heart. Last April he said the heart was entirely covered with water, and that I would never be any better, never be able to do any hard work.

Dear Journal : I have been a great sufferer with chronic catarrh for fourteen years. I have tried everything in the way of medical treatment, including change of climate and visits to the most noted medical springs,—said to have cured others; but all failed in my case.

I take pleasure in adding my testimony to that of others who have been healed by Christian Science. I had suffered for years with my eyes, and had long been compelled to wear glasses.

As an item of experience in support of Science and Health, and its ever-glorious theories, the following testimony is respectfully submitted. A lady in one of the suburbs of Boston, through treatment by Christian Science, became deeply interested therein.

My very dear Teacher : At one time I had a great feeling of reticence in respect to reporting cases of healing; but as the Truth grows upon my apprehension, I feel it to be a duty to magnify God's holy name, and to declare His wonderful works,— lest, shamed by our silence, the stones cry out. About the time our last class closed, one of the students, passing a house on her way home, heard, on more than one occasion, cries of pain, which attracted the attention of others as well as herself.

I must tell you about my first case in obstetrics. A lady at Cheyenne, Wyoming Territory, sent me a despatch, asking me to treat her daughter.

Mrs. M.

My first case in the obstetric line came along last week. I was not able to carry the belief entirely painless, but nearly so.

My dear Teacher : I must tell you of some demonstrations I have had lately, which I know you will be glad to hear. A lady from Philadelphia, who has been blind and deaf for thirty years, can now thread a needle, and is improving in many ways.
