I do wish to add my testimony of being healed by reading “Science and
Health with Key to the Scriptures.” I had been an invalid for over twenty
years, and had given up all hope of ever being well again. I had read the
book about six weeks, when it seemed I was made all over new, and I could
“run, and not be weary; and ... walk, and not faint.” I did not understand
it, but it was the savior from death unto life with me; I have remained
well ever since I was healed,—more than five years ago. I commenced to
treat others as soon as I was born anew into the kingdom of Truth. My
patients were healed right along, before I had taken lessons in a class,
and they have remained well to this day.
Christian Science has made me as young as a girl of sixteen. If this
should meet the eye of any sufferers who may be led to go and do as I did,
they will be healed.—N. A. E.

Language is inadequate when bearing grateful testimony to the book
“Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.” By its simple reading, I
was healed of ills which baffled the skill of specialists and all
curatives that love and money could command. After eighteen years of
invalidism, and eight years of scepticism, without hope, with no
God,—except a First Cause,—I was given up to die.
A loving friend told me of this book, which was soon brought; and
thirty-five pages of the first chapter were read to me that evening. The
next morning I got up, walked, and read the book for myself.
I mention the chapter, for the reason that nearly two years have passed
since those wonderful words of Life were first read to me, and _still_
their sacred sweetness is ever the same. Now I exclaim, _God is_ All!

It is impossible for me to keep still any longer. In 1885, when I had not
known a well day in five years, “Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures” was placed in my hands by a dear lady who insisted upon my
reading it, saying she believed it would heal me. Like many, I was afraid
of it,—until I learned what it really was. The friend’s words were
verified. I _was_ healed by the reading of the book, and for one year
continued to read nothing whatever but the Bible and Science and Health.
They were my constant study. Through the understanding gained, that _God_
is _All_, I came to demonstrate with great success, and with but one
thought,—for I knew nothing about giving a “treatment;” I wish I knew as
little now, for I believe that healing in Christian Science is to be done
in a moment. I became anxious to learn more, to study with the teacher,
but funds would not allow,—and I thought to substitute a course in
Chicago, perhaps. Every time I would speak of it, however, my dear mother
would say, “You have Science and Health and the Bible, and God for your
teacher—what more do you need? If I could not go to the teacher, I would
not go to any one.”
