Our little boy (nine months old) was suddenly stricken with fever. We called a physician who told us it would be impossible to get his fever down without throwing him into spasms, as his temperature was so high; also, that it could not be brought down in less than twelve hours, and it would be necessary to try to reduce it in about that time, or the child would not live.
A friend called to see us, a few moments after the doctor left, and urged us to try Christian Science. Upon our yielding to his earnest solicitations, and agreeing to give no more medicine, our friend called on Mrs. C—— who treated the case absently. We did not know at what time she began the treatments but at seven o'clock all traces of fever were gone, and the child dropped into a healthy sleep, and did not waken before morning; and since then he has been in better health than ever before.— and Grand Junction, Col.
Note: The Sabbath following this demonstration, the father, mother, and child attended our Sabbath School. It was the first time I had seen the mother and child. They now come some five miles regularly to our Sunday School, and will soon enter a. class.—
