From the June 1927 issue of The Christian Science Journal


It is now twelve years since we started to study Christian Science, and we have found it a wonderful help in trouble. I cannot tell of all the wonderful healings we have had in our family, as it would require a book to contain them ; but I will tell of one healing, in the hope that it will help someone else, and to show that distance does not hinder the good work.

My son, aged sixteen, had inflammatory rheumatism, but as we live one thousand miles from the nearest practitioner, we thought we would try to treat him ourselves. He grew much worse, and for two weeks had no sleep at all; so at last we sent a telegram to a practitioner in Brisbane. Five hours later he asked to be moved into another room, as he felt so much better he was sure he could sleep. He did, and in three days he was out walking. That was over five years ago, and the trouble has never returned.

I cannot say how thankful we are to Mrs. Eddy, who gave us Christian Science, to enable us to destroy all errors. I have been helped most wonderfully in childbirth also; in fact, I do not know what we would have done without it. I had ear trouble for several years, but I had a few treatments and it all went away. It came back worse than ever, however, so I concluded I had better work it out myself with the help of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy. It took a long time, but at last I was healed.
