fsction of the spine, which gradually

under peculiar circumstances. She
had been attended by skillful physi-
clans, who resorted to every known
medical expedient to relieve except
the application tO the spine of u red

tation recently ut which il was deter
mined to apply this terrible remedy il
she consented to go through the Or
deal. They communicated the result
of their deliberations to her, but she
protested against any further medical
experiments and said she had made
up her mind to trust her case to su-
pernatural agency for cure, and that
something had told her to rise from
her long confinement next day. She
accordingly elevated her person and
sat on n chair. The following day she
walked across the room, and since she
has attended church, walking with
perfect ease. Owing to the protracted
confinement, che is weak, but her spine,
which was broken in three places. has
been restored to its original frmness.
The physicians who had treated the
lady were called in to see her after she
left her he'd, and expressed their sur
prise Mt tho marvellous change that
had occurred. Even her lungs, which
had been seriously affected. were per
fectly sound. The voung lady attrib-
utes her cure to divine interpos. .tion
in answer to her prayers. She had
particularly fixed her mind on certain
passages in the Bible relating 10 pron>
