It is nearly two and one half years since I embraced Christian Science. During the whole time I have tried to be a faithful student in the work, depending entirely upon spiritual means for my life and health. It has been a constant struggle from the beginning for the supremacy of good over evil, and I have been greatly rewarded with many beautiful demonstrations of the power of Truth to overcome both sin and disease. I have been healed of hemorrhoids and enlargement of the prostate gland, and am being healed of other claims. But best of all, I am enjoying the fruit of the Spirit, which Paul tells us is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance. I wish to give one demonstration, which may be helpful to others. Last July I was stricken with rectal abscess. Under Christian Science treatment, I was in bed less than five days and suffered little inflammation and pain. On the morning of the fifth day 1 arose, dressed, and rode about fifteen miles on an electric car for pleasure, sitting upon hard, uncushioned seats nearly the whole distance, and transferring four times with but little discomfort. Soreness soon left the afflicted part, and the wound has healed. In contrast to the above described case, I want to say that three years ago last February, while with my own people in western New York, I went through the ordeal of an abscess under materia medica with entirely different results. I was confined to the bed three weeks and to the house five, suffering great inflammation and pain. I slept but little for eight days and nights, and my whole system was seriously disturbed. After the evacuation of the abscess, it continued to flow constantly for four and one half months before healing. Christian Science is truly the sovereign remedy for all mankind. May I so live in conformity with the teaching of Christian Science, that I shall be a living witness of the power of Truth to overcome error and establish harmony on earth.
