I was brought up in the Lutheran doctrine, and when a boy received a good
knowledge of Scripture; but I never understood it until explained to me in
Science and Health.

In a letter received a few days ago from one of my absent patients, there
was such a glorious testimonial for Science and Health that I feel as if I
ought to send it in for the pages of our _Journal_, trusting it may be the
means of helping many others to turn for help and comfort, in every
emergency, to this book.
In her letter, this lady says: “A few days since, I had quite a serious
claim attack me. I left my mending, took Science and Health and read all
the afternoon and evening; when all trace of the claim was gone, and I
have felt nothing of it since.”
When this dear woman applied to Truth, she was a great sufferer. Her
gratitude knows no bounds. Many chronic ailments, which have bound her
with heavy chains for many years, are being removed one by one. It is such
a sweet privilege to lead her out of this bondage of flesh, for she turns
with such childlike trust and obedience to the book, and looks to that for
aid in every trial and affliction. It is beautiful to see, and is a rebuke
to some of us older in the thought, who depend so much on personality.
She is far away, in a little country town where Science has hardly been
heard of; but she is so happy with her book that she has no desire for
other reading.
I have always tried to show her that God was with her there as well as
with us here; that in Him she possesses all; and that with her Bible and
Science and Health no harm can befall her, for the remedy for every ill
she has at hand.—MRS. C. H. S., Woburn, Mass.

I have been an interested reader of the _Journal_ for some time, and
thought I would contribute my mite by giving one of my latest
demonstrations in Christian Science.
An accident occurred as follows: Officers, while hunting for a criminal in
thick underbrush, fired upon each other through mistake, and it was found
that one was shot six times; two of the bullets passing through the
abdomen, and one through the hips.
Two physicians who examined him had no hope. He asked me to help him. I
took the case. Relief came almost instantly. I treated him for eight days;
the fifth, I heard one of three physicians, who held a private
consultation over my patient, ask him this question:
“Mr. F——, have you not got one bit of pain?” I was rewarded by hearing him
answer, “No, sir; not the least bit.” No one else seemed to have any hope
for him; but I held firmly to the thought that God is an ever-present
help, never doubting, and Christian Science has again won a victory. Many
people call it a miracle, and it has set them to thinking.
