"About two or three months ago I had a belief of scarlet fever, and mamma had to report to the Board of Health, and my two sisters couldn't go to school; the first time they had been absent or tardy. One had been going to school five years, and one three years. Every one was aftaid to come to our house for weeks, and our cook went away because she was afraid. Mamma treated me with Christian Science. I was in bed only two days, and when I was awful hot and my head ached very badly I asked mamma to read out loud from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," and felt much better then. I love Mrs. Eddy. I saw her a year ago last June in Boston. Papa was scared awfully, and was afraid the girls would catch it too, but they didn't. Most always I can heal myself, because I don't often have beliefs. I have treated papa several times and healed him. We have a new Christian Science Church. We have a big Sunday School, since our new church was opened. I shall be glad when I am old enough to be a member of the Mother Church, but I'm not nine years old yet, so I shall have to wait a long time. - Mary Scranton Roe, Fort Worth, Tex.
