the case. The next day, on looking at my eyes, my wife

noticed that the cataract had disappeared. I put away

my outdoor glasses, which I have not required since, and

through the understanding gained by studying Christian

Science I have been able to do away with my indoor

glasses also, and have had no return of pain in my eyes

since. This is now a year and a half ago. – G. F. S.,

VALVULAR HEART DISEASE HEALED

608:10
Fourteen years ago my heart awoke to gratitude to

God and the dear Leader at the same time. After a

patient and persistent effort of three months' duration, to

procure a copy of Science and Health (during which time

I had visited every bookstore, and many of the second-

hand bookstores in the city of St. Paul), and had failed

to find it, I at last remembered that the stranger who told

me I might be healed, had mentioned a name, and

McVicker's Theatre Building in Chicago as being in

some way connected with the work. I sent there for

information regarding a book called Health and Science,

and the return mail brought me the book, Science and

Health, and in it I at once found sure promise of deliver-

ance from valvular heart disease, with all the accompani-

ments, such as extreme nervousness, weakness, dyspepsia,

and insomnia. I had suffered from these all my life,

finding no permanent relief, even, in material remedies,

and no hope of cure at any time. Only those who have

been held in such bondage and have been liberated by

the same means, can know the eager joy of the first perusal

of that wonderful book.
