Sincere gratitude impels me to write these lines in order that I may tell of some of the benefits which I have received through Christian Science. About three and a half years ago I was brought into this beautiful Truth, by being healed of a claim of two and one half years' standing, an illness which made my whole existence a misery and life scarcely worth living. I was very, very thankful to receive relief in so short a time as one month's treatment. Of course I then took up the study of Science and Health for myself, but more than a year passed before I realized the full necessity of putting into thorough practice what I had learned therefrom. Many troubles came into my life all at once and I had to apply to a Scientist to help me to meet them.
Since then I have been able to do my own work and sometimes also to help others. I have overcome a severe claim of influenza within thirty-four hours, no one excepting my mother, who is also a Scientist, having noticed that there was anything the matter with me. An inflamed eye yielded very quickly, as a result of treating myself. In fact, it was noticeable that as I started denying the material senses and acknowledging the all-power of God, the swelling went down immediately.
Words fail to express my thankfulness to Mrs. Eddy for the grand uplifting work which she has done for the cause of humanity, and for the excellent reading which is contained in the Journals and Sentinels, to which we are regular subscribers.— London, Eng.
