From the March 1890 issue of The Christian Science Journal


A little over two years ago, while living in Pittsburgh, my wife and I had Christian Science brought to our attention. We were at once interested, and bought a copy of Science and Health. At the time, Mrs. A —— was suffering with severe belief of astigmatism of the eyes. She had been treated by a number of specialists during seven years; the last being the late Dr. Agnew of New York, who prescribed two sets of glasses. He said he could do nothing more for her, as the trouble was organic; that she must wear glasses constantly — if she attempted to go without she would either become blind or insane. The glasses were in operation, and still life had become a burden from constant pain, when Christian Science came to our relief. Mrs. A—— had not in years read two consecutive minutes, and could not use her eyes in sewing at all. The lady that told us of the Science, insisted that she could read Science and Health, which she actually did; reading it through twice, and studying it carefully each time. After the second reading, the thought came that she did not need the glasses, and she at once abandoned them, and went about her usual duties. In about two weeks from that day the eyes were perfectly healed, and are well and strong to-day.—
