In January, 1898, I went to Montreal and submitted to an operation, being under the influence of ether two and one half hours. I had not been well for a year previous. After the operation, as soon as I was able, I came home, but I could do no work to speak of, only a little light sewing. I was very nervous and kept getting worse for over a year. I was told by a physician in a town adjoining this that I would have to have another operation. I could not bear the thought of it, but did not know of any other way until I was told of Christian Science by a kind friend, and what it had done for her. I began taking treatment June 10, 1899. and July 3, 1899, I came home (I was away when I began treatment), riding fifty-two miles by rail and twelve miles in a carriage. The following day, July 4, I went to a picnic, and was on my feet almost all day; since then I have done the most of my work, and for the last six months I have done it all. We live on a farm. There are four of us in the family. I am very well indeed, for which I am more thankful than I know how to express. I feel that I do not half appreciate what my healer and others have done for me. I get great help from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures."
On two occasions I have overcome canker in the mouth. Before I have always resorted to material remedies.
