Testimonies of Healing

A gentleman, — a travelling salesman from one of our large cities,— with whom Christian Science is the main topic of conversation, when not engaged in selling goods, being on quite intimate terms with one of his customers in a small town, introduced the subject of Christian Science, endeavoring to give him some idea of what it is; giving as proof some cases of healing; not knowing, at that time, that the merchant had an invalid son and daughter, and a friend with an invalid wife.
