describe my sensations. I am for
bidden to say whero went Or what
I did. No, I cannot tell you whether
my experience was pleasant or 9TH
erwise. No, I won't say any more
about this. I heard Father Hell
nen call me the third time to wake
me up. No mean the angel told
mo it WAS three times. My first
words were, "Father Jesus Mary
Joseph assist mo" Is Father Bunce
here?

felt my soul was back again,
but my body was not cured. So
Father Heinen put his hands over
my head, and said in German, 'In
the name of Jesus be healed" felt
cured in m instant, and rose up in
bed, and they wrapped me up, and
I went out and walked to church
am perfectly cured. I feel better
than for ton yenrs, and as we'll as
ever in my life. I feel as if I could
walk from here to Reading.
THE PRIEST CONFIDENT.
Father Heinen corroboratod thie
recital, so far as related to the
events in which he was concerned.
He Expressed the utmost faith in
the woman, md is sure that he has
not been deceived. When reminded
that there are cases of religious en-
thusiasm or mania, authentically
recorded, which are as strange as
Miss Greth's case, tho priest said he
was aware Of it, but was satisfied
that this woman was neither insane
nor practising deception. "There
is no room for illusion in the case"
said he. 81 should be guilty of q
great crime to invite the world to
see the wonderful miracle which has
taken place here unless I had salts
fed myself of the trush." I asked
His Reverence how it was that
those who witnessed Miss Greth
while she was unconscious distinctly
saw her winking her eyes. This he
explained by saying that there was
COuEConC CTeHOT OF Cno eyenuS
during the whole time she was Gin
ecstacy," It was such as no ono
could do voluntarily, and was rather
q proof that sho was in an exalted
state. Father Heinen gave his
reasons at length for believing in
her, their substance being the wo-
mans reputation for extreme piety
all her life, the doctrine that all
persons are attended by guardian
angel, and that tho teaching that n
miracle is something beyond reason,
but not contrary to it. There is no
doubt that Father Heinen is entire
ly sincere and honest in his belief in
this woman. He has the reputation,
among Catholics and Protestants
alike, OF being m unusually hard
working, self-denying priest, living
in poverty and without the comforts
Of life, and devoted enthusiastically
to his church.

EDUCATIONAL.

Education is not all obtained
from books. Much is picked up
here and there and everywhere in
general, but nowhere in particu-
lar; and this education is often of
the sort that serves one best and
brings ones bread and butter most
readily. For example this is the
season for eggs, young chickens,
and gardens. Boys and girls ought
to be early taught concerning these
matters. They can be taught these
things in the schools only theoret-
ically, and that kind of teaching is
not wanted. At home they can
get it practically, if parents will
take little trouble to start them.
Is it too great a risk to let them
take care of the chickens, and will
some of the little peppers die
What if they doG Are chickens
worth more than children! They
will learn all the mysteries in a
short time, and will enjoy the bus
mess. Give them little assistance
toward getting some thorough
breds, and some doves, and If wa
ter is handy, perhaps some ducks,
and if they don't get absorbed in
their business and talk chickens,
ducks, and doves to the entire sat
isfaction of their parents, why they
will be fit subjects for Barnum's
museum. Let them keep an ac-
count with the hens, that is, credit
them for eggs, pot-pies, etc, and
per inventory when they want to
balance; and debit for first cost, or
stocks on hand at beginning, and
also for feed. There's the whole
subject of book keeping in nut
shell, and they can understand it
too. It's worth q whole term Of
theory. Many parents will be
surprised at the profits, as 80 per
cent. can be easily made. OF course
the boy must have credit for what
he brings in, not alone for what he
sells. 1t don't pay to sell eggs
either, at 10 cents, If they can be
used on the table. There is too
much nutriment to be thown so
recklessly away. They are the best
food in the world for children
They are easily cooked and quick
ly digested, and contain all the ele-
ments necessary TO sustain life, and
In better proportions, than does
any other known food. A family
Of elk can consume is eggs day
and not bali try. Proofs furnish

A person who was looking at q
house the other day, said he couldn't
afford to pay such rent. "Well,
look at the neighborhood," replied
the woman, "you can borrow fat
irons next door, coffee and tea
across the road, -four and sugar on
the corner, and there's q big pile of
wood belonging to the schoolhouse
right across the alley.

Prof. d, or Adrian College, was
very absent minded. He boarded
in the large hall, south building.
Most Of the students and several
professors also boarded there. One
morning, in the absence of the
master of ceremonies, Prof. S. was
called upon to ask blessing, which
he did briefly and well. Instead of
closing with "amen," however. he
ended his petition with "yours
truly, J. X. Stephens"
Prof. Williams, of the Univer-
sity at Ann Arbor, the oldest pro-
fessor in the University, was for
many years, until his recent dotage,
renowned for his reparte. Other
professors may be forgotten, but
the recollection of him will always
be fresh and warm in the mind of
each one of the long line of classes
he has instructed. The boys often
tried to get ahead of him, but the
story of their success was never re-
corded. Once they took donkey
to his room, third floor, south hall,
south side. They placed the ami
NAL on the rostrum, his long ears
and sleepy countenance hanging
out over the desk, toward the class,
who were now quietly seated in
their places. Tie professors cane
is heard humping up the narrow
stairs, first fight, second flight
The door opens, all is solemn and
still. The white head is deferen-
TALLY uncovered, and in slow meas
ured tones, said: swell, gentle
men, I congratulate you. You have
made an exceedingly appropriate
choice. Good day" Thump, thump,
thump, went the old cane down the
stairs, and the students were left
to take care of their chosen in
structor.
Once he asked Sam Hayes, of go,
how the water was drawn up into a
common suction pump. Sucked
up" was the reply. Wbereupon
the old gentleman thundered out:
"Sucked up! If you say it's suck
ed up, say you're sucked in"
Before examinations, Sam prepared
about so pages of answers to ques-
tions, he suspected would be ask
ed, but he could not fit bis answers
to the questions and finally in fit
of desperation labeled the whole
bundle and passed it in at the pro-
fessors' grand reception, next even
ing. Sam told him that he had
hardly expected to pass. "Well,"
was the reply, "you did manage
your team badly, and l would have
you, but for two rea-
sons. First.-It was the wrong
year. l condition one, each alter
nate year, and second: / knew
If l did, l would be obliged to have
you in my class another year, and

A coffin maker was asked for
whom he was making coffin, and
replied: "Mr. Swift" "Why,

dead yet" "Don't You trouble
yourself" replied the sturdy me-

his coffin, and guess be knows
what he gave him."

A New Hartford four-year-old
desired to accompany ber mother
upon a ride, but was told if she

she should have something nice.
Upon the mothers return the child
was rewarded with several gum

of and more demanded, the de-
mand being denied. After consid-

following caustic remark: "Mam-
