Testimonies of Healing
It is with great joy I can tell of the healing truth which is ours in the proper understanding of the Bible as given us in the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. Almost eight years ago, when first Christian Science was presented to me, I had been suffering with a continuous headache for about three months.

" For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword. " In Christian Science we are taught to prove what we know.
In my childhood I became convinced that, as Mrs. Eddy has stated, "Truth is revealed.

It is nearly thirty years since a very dear friend became interested in Christian Science, and so sure was she that it was the truth that she rarely passed by my house without coming in to tell me of some wonderful healings and experiences that had come to her. I was not very easily convinced, for my doctors had been so much with me and so much to me.

In the fall of the year 1914 I lay looking into space, weary of life, of suffering, and wondering what I could do next in the search for health and happiness. I had suffered acutely for many years from gastritis, ulcer of the stomach, and mucous colitis, following peritonitis.
I turned to Christian Science over twenty years ago for physical healing. All my life up to that time I had been afflicted with a disease of the kidneys which was said to have been inherited from my father.
