This was about ten years ago and was the first I had ever heard of Christian Science. We soon got a copy 30 of Science and Health and I began in the right way to 1 see if Christian Science were the truth. I had no thought of studying it for bodily healing; in fact, I did not think 3 I needed it for that, but my soul cried out for something I had not yet found. This book was indeed a key to the Scriptures. 6 It was not long after I began reading before I dis- covered that my eyes were good and strong, I could read as much as I wished, and at any time, which was 9 something I could not do before, as my eyes had always been weak. The doctors said they never would be very strong, and that if I did not wear glasses, I might lose 12 my sight altogether. I never gave up to wearing glasses, and now, thanks to Christian Science, I do not need them, my work for the past two years as a railway mail clerk 15 being a good test. At the same time my eyes were healed, I also noticed that I w...as entirely healed of another ail- ment which had been with me all my life, and which was 18 believed to be inherited. Since that time my growth has seemed to me slow, yet when I look back and view myself as I was before Christian Science found me, and 21 compare it with my life as it now is, I can only close my eyes to the picture and rejoice that I have been "born again" and that I have daily been putting off "the 24 old man with his deeds," and putting on "the new man." Some of the many things that have been overcome 27 through the study of Science and Health, and through realizing and practising the truth it teaches, are pro- fanity, the use of tobacco, a very quick temper, which 30 made both myself and those around me at times very miserable, and such thoughts as malice, revenge, etc. — O.
