About three years ago while in St. Louis. I was taken very sick. Two of the best physicians were called, I was examined by them, and both said that I must go to the hospital and have an operation performed. They said that I might live, but would never be able to work again. It seemed like a death sentence to me. I was willing to go, my suffering was so great that I preferred to die rather than to suffer longer. My friends were unwilling that I should go, and wanted me to try another doctor. I refused. I thought of Christian Science, and knew that the next door neighbors were Scientists. I asked my friends if they would not kindly borrow the book, Science and Health for me, that I might read it. I read it prayerfully and asked God to help me to understand, and before the end of a week I was healed, and in two weeks I went to work. I have been working ever since. I feel perfectly well.— Chicago Heights, Ill.
