A few days ago I called at the dentist's to pay a bill for work done for my daughter. As I turned to leave the office the dentist, who seemed to know we were Scientists, eagerly detained me, begging me to give him some information concerning my daughter's teeth. "Have you ever, at some previous time," he asked, "given her Christian Science treatment? For it is evident that her teeth had at first a decided tendency to be abnormal, to project, but suddenly there was a change and the teeth have proceeded in a perfectly natural course."
The dentist was deeply impressed by this manifestation and expressed himself most emphatically as being in strong sympathy with a Science that could work such results.
It is true that from early childhood there had been a pronounced tendency, as the dentist discerned, due to such a deformity on one side of the family, and at times I would be almost terrified at this seemingly inevitable law of heredity. But when my little girl was about ten years old I began to get some knowledge of Christian Science, and my first care was to apply it in her case.
