While in great fear, and dreading the operation, a kind
neighbor called, and after telling me of Christian Science
gave me a copy of Science and Health. She said I must
put aside all medicine, and by reading faithfully she knew
I could be healed. The book became my constant companion,
and in a short time I was healed. Besides the
relief from an operation, I was completely healed of severe
headaches and stomach trouble. Physicians could give
me no help for either of these ailments. For ten years I
have not used medicine of any kind, and have not missed
a Christian Science service on account of sickness during
this period. I am perfectly well. To say that I am grateful
to God for all this does not express my feelings. The
physical healing was wonderful, but the understanding
given me of God, and the ability to help others outweigh
all else. I also love our dear Leader. - Mrs.

own country); but I did not like to leave the school, so I
struggled on until July, when we went travelling for a
month, but I came home worse than ever. I had a lot
of worry, one disappointment after another, and I often
thought that life was not worth living. In September,
1904, we heard for the first time of Christian Science
