Last September I had an attack of typhoid fever. Many of my friends who depended on material remedies were in bondage for weeks; but I depended on God as the one and only Great Physician, and I knew He was able to deliver me from every ill that flesh was heir to, and through the earnest and honest work of a Scientist, I was able to go to work in a week, although I continued treatment a week longer. I have not lost a day's work since I began, and to-day, I can truthfully say I have not felt better in years.
When the healing came, it brought a wonderful transformation. It seemed a miracle to me, although I knew Truth was able to do all. It was just like a burst of sunshine dispelling the darkness. I arose from my bed, dressed, and walked five blocks to be shaved and felt as if I could have walked five miles without fatigue.
I was brought into Christian Science through the healing of my wife. Seeing her great improvement, I said it must be of God, and what it is able to do for her, it is able to do for me. I was healed of the liquor and tobacco habit besides numerous other ailments. One who knew our home before we came into Science would not know it now. Where poverty once stared us in the face, now is peace and plenty; where gaunt figures and pale, careworn faces were, now are healthy bodies and happy, cheerful faces.
