Several years ago I was healed in Christian Science of what materia medica called chronic dyspepsia. For several months, I was under the physician's care, and was at last told that a trip east would benefit me. I had heard and seen something of Christian Science some time before, but was very much prejudiced against what I thought it was. At last, however, feeling completely discouraged, I concluded to try it.
I well remember the morning I decided to call upon the practitioner. I said, "I have come to be healed in Christian Science, but I do not want anything more of it."
After many words of love and kindness as I started to go home, she said, "Now eat anything you want." I wondered what she could mean to tell me that, when even a cup of hot water and a slice of dry toast gave me great suffering. That evening at dinner I decided to eat the same as the family did, but I arranged the articles on the table so that I should not be observed, as I felt I could not let any one know where I had been. I ate everything I wanted for the first time in many months, and from that day to this have never given any thought as to what I should eat. After a few weeks I was healed, and soon after received class instruction.
