The story is told of a woman who called on a physician for
nervous trouble. She was a woman whose ailments had worried
and excited her to such a degree that she was threatened with
nervous prostration. Said the doctor: “Madam, what you need is
to read your Bible more.” She promptly began to take offense at
the strange prescription. He told her he meant it. “Go home and
read your Bible an hour a day; then come back to me a month from
to-day.” She thought over the matter, recalled the fact that tho
she was a professing Christian she had been neglecting to read
her Bible, and so she decided to take his advice. At the end of
the month she came back to the office a well woman. She felt
like a different person. She needed no medicine. (Text.)
