se and effect in matter, when
all cause and effect are mental.

I mention physicians and ministers, because one class claims to heal
disease, the other claims to heal sin; but Christian Science heals
physically and morally,--it contains all; "its leaves are for the healing
of the nations."

I was for years a great sufferer. I called doctor after doctor, getting no
help. The last one, after treating me for one year, told me he would give
me one year more to live.

One evening a near neighbor came in and asked me to go home with her; and
as it was only a few steps, I did so.

She took up a new book, Science and Health, read me a few chapters, and
then gave me some Christian Science tracts, which I read, and one of them
I almost committed to memory.

I bought a copy of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," and
studied it carefully. I am healed of all those claims which troubled me so
long. I was lifted out of darkness into light.

_Rev. Mary B. G. Eddy, Boston, Mass.:_--I wish to thank you for the true
light that was revealed to me by reading your book, "Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures," and at once adopting its teaching. It was one

the enemy; and you may know I have looked forward to this day with a great
deal of pleasure, to show my friends that the Lord is constantly with me
to help overcome all evil.

Some said, when I first started in this new path, "Wait until you get one
of your stomach attacks, and you will change your mind." For months they
have waited, and are beginning to see the truth in my actions, that speak
for themselves, and show that all is _Mind_.

For nearly thirty years I had been a sufferer from throat and stomach
troubles; bronchitis, dyspepsia, gastralgia, and gastritis, etc., were the
terms applied by my physicians. About eighteen years of that time I was
engaged in the drug business, had constant opportunities for consulting
the best physicians, and took such medicine as I felt assured would cure
me; but only to be disappointed each time.

The last few years I had been living on oatmeal crackers and hot water;
suffering more or less all the time, and could not eat anything else
without suffering
