After many years of treatment by prominent nerve specialists in this country and Europe, going from place to place seeking relief from climate for a so-called serious nerve trouble, and finding only temporary help, I became interested in Christian Science, and was completely healed, after a nervous collapse which confined me to bed many months. Other complaints are, one after another, yielding to the power of Truth, as I more earnestly work to correct old habits of thought, to recognize my own responsibility, and to read and study the Bible, together with our textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," and other works by Mary Baker Eddy. Looking back, I can see the lack of earnest work on my part, leaving it largely to the practitioner, and the necessity of learning through much suffering, mentally and bodily, my own responsibility. Deepest gratitude, and the desire to help any who may be in similar bondage, impel this testimony to the power of Truth.
For this awakening, for the benefit mentally, morally, and spiritually, for the loving help from practitioners and the kindly cheer of friends, I am indeed most grateful.— St. Louis, Mo.
