    details concerning the tumor. She had dwelt upon her troubles and defects so long that she was obsessed with them. She couldn’t see or think of anything else. When she came for her first treatment the healer had ready a large vase of beautiful Cali¬ fornia roses, which were about the color of a natural, healthy pink skin. He told her to sit down and look at them, to drink in beauty, and to think about their perfection. To put her mind in a better condition to receive a treat¬ ment he made her look at the roses for a half hour. He told her that he didn’t want to hear anything about her troubles, because a healer must see only the person God made, the per¬ fect, whole, complete being, with strong, robust health, otherwise he could not help anyone. He instructed her to hold the same thought; to hold in mind only the ideal which her Crea¬ tor had of her, not to think of any blemish, weakness or disease. The woman obeyed instructions, and under the influence of this dominant health thought, through the persistent holding of the health ideal, her tumor gradually grew smaller, shriv¬ eled up and all her troubles disappeared.
