I am twelve years old, and live on a farm. My parents are Christian "Scientists, my mamma having been in Science five years. During harvest I caught one of my fingers in the cog wheels of a binder, crushing the end of it off. The nail was crushed off, too. I went to the house, and mamma commenced to treat me. In a short time the pain ceased. My finger healed very rapidly without any material remedy. I have been healed of many ills: croup, colds, pneumonia, and fever. I had the bronchitis before mamma came into Science, and our family physician said I could not be healed. The physician kept me in a flannel jacket during the winter time. I am now well and rugged. I have three brothers and one sister. We have not had any medicine for our family for about five years. We trust to Christian Science to heal all our diseases.— Unionville, Mo.
