A STRANGE ROMANCE.

A Hungarian journal copies from
the Medical Weekly Journal Of SAINT
Petersburg, a periodical devoted to
medical and psychological science the
following strange story:
Orenburg is a town of European
Russia situated in the Ural mountains
near the Asiatia border About a year
AGO Abraham Chorkoy, a wealthy
Jewish inhabitant of that town, was
lying dangerously sick with typhoid
fever. On tbe 22d day of September,
a. midnight, crisis set in which
seemed to take fatal course; the man
struggled, and his physicians called 1t
the agonies of death. A number OF
Jews were called in, prayers were OF
fered. wax candles lit, and behold
the patent, who was thought to be II
the last stages, commenced to breathe
freely, opened his eyes, and looked
with astonishment at the surroundln!
scene. Well, this had happened be
fore. Many in whom life was though
to be extinct have rallied again ant
recovered their health. But the st
quel has no precedent The ma
soon after fell into a sleep which tb
physician declared to be health
one. In the morning he awoke, sa,
wife and children around him, VIII
partly in anguish and partly in jo
were waiting for his awakening. III

chronicle was made about the middle
of the thirteenth century of our CHRIS
tian era. and there it is stated that the
shaking Of the earth commenced 2,l96
years before Christ, and Allland sank
in the ocean three years later, or 2,l93
wears before Christ. There are many
facts in history which 60 far to prove
the truth of the statements in this
chronicle. Charlemange, over
thousand years ago, sent ambassadors
to the Frisians and these reported to
him that this strange people counted
their wears from what to them seemed
to have been the Dcluge of the Bible.
One of the Frisian chiefs sent letter
to the Emperor Charlemange IN the
year 8O3, which is still preserved in
the library of manuscripts in the Vat
lean .of Rome. That letter begins
with the following statement ''Since
Altland is sllnken, it is new 1896
wears, which, it being then the Chris
tian year 8O3, makes 1t precisely 2,l92
wears before Christ. And 1t is some
what strange how well this tristan
chronology, written nearly
FOUR THOUSAND YEARS AGO,
tallics with Bibicyl history. Accord
inc to the first book of Moses, the
deluge occurred 1,756 years after the
creation of the world, which, by Bib.
heal count, would be 4,OG9 years ago.
Deducting from that number the year
1875. in which this Frisian chronicle
was found, leaves the year 2,l93 pre-
clsely the time when the continent OF
Ahland vanished in the waters. 1t is,
therefore, quite clear that the deluge
spoken of by Moses, and the three
years of earthquakes aud thunder
F., storms, fyllowed by the sinking of
+ Altland. or Atlantis, are the same
identical events.

Centennial Tree Planting.
sT1E.

This historic year suggests Speclal
duties and opportunities to the teachers
and youth OF Connecticut. American
History, too much neglected III our
schools, should now enlist greater IN
terest and attention. These centen'
niol anniversaries and celebrations can
be made to foster historic spirit and
give to this important study greater
vividness. and honor, and value. But
while studying the annals ofthe past,
our pnpils should be encouraged to do
something for the future. There is no
better way to honor the heroes OF
l77G than by some good deeds whose
fruit may survive 1876. One way IN
which any boy may accomplish this
result is by planting Il thrifty elm or
oak
Tree planting is fitted to give a les
son Of forethouSht to the juvenile
, mind. Living solely in the present
, and for the present, too many youth
will SOW, only where the can shortly
reap. A meager crop, soon in hand,
outweighs golden harvest long i'll
maturing AS short-sightedness Is
the danger OF youth, they should learn
that forecastng the future is the con
ditlon of wisdom. Arboriculture is
discipline in foresight, for it is alway'
planting for the future and often 1o7
the distant future. To do something
in this centennial year which may llv'
on in 1916, will be healthtul asplra
ton to any youth. Washington lr

Childish Faith.

The other day a good-hearted but
incorporate woman living in the east
ern part of the city became intoxicated
and created a disturbance on the street
in front OF her house. An officer
marched her to the police station.
Soon after she had been placed in a
cell Ter two children came in--one a
girl of six, the other a boy of three.
won't you let ma out ?" asked the
girl of the officers.
They tried to explain to her what
course would be taken, and the little
ones started for home. Returning
after three or four minutes, the girl
asked:
"If we get afraid tonight, and the
Lord comes here to get our ma out and
bring her home, you won't stop him,
will you?',,
The men looked at each other with
out replying, and the girl continued:
Come, Johnny, let's go home, and
I'll pray, and mother'll he home before
it S dark
An hour before dark she was sober
and was sent home. Justice was not
hard-hearted enough to oblige those
trusting children to pass long, dark
night alone.-Detroit Free Press.
