letter. To gain his sympathy and
break into his reserve has been the
aim of many women who have been
summoned to his presence, but so far
all in vain. A well-known actress
was ordered to sing for him in the
winter garden on the roof of the pal
ace, while he sailed about on the little
shallow artificial lake in a swan
shaped boat, la Lohengrin. Instead
of remaining hidden in grotto, where
she might be heard and not seen, she
caused herself to fall into the water,
where she cried to be saved. King
Louis calmly rang bell and said to a
servant: "Take that woman out of
the water" and that very day sent
her out ofthe kingdom.-Boston Tran

Faith Cures.

At a meeting of Baptist ministers
in New York city the Rev. DR.. G. w.
Sampson read a paper on miracles and
cures by faith. lie told story of a
woman who was treated by DR.. Ham
mond. The woman believed she
could be cured by the application of
Lourdes water. DR.. Hammond told
her he would apply Croton, and if
that did not help her he would apply
Lourdes. He applied Lourdes, but
she, supposing it to be Croton, refused
to be cured. DR.. Hammond then tried
Croton, and the woman, believing it
to be Lourdes, was healed. In its re-
port of the meeting and the subject
under discussion, the New York Times
gives the following
The Rev. DR.. Charles Rhodes said
God was as capable of working
miracles at this time as in scriptural
times, but He was always chary of
them. He related the wonders per-
formed by a certain physicin who
once visited New York. The doctor
went into the room of bed
ridden woman and babe her arise and
walk. She did so. The Rev. DIR. d. G.
Potter, the moderator, said he knew of
a wonderful case. Instead Of some
one ordering the woman out of the
house fire was applied, and the effect
was the same. The Rev. J. G. Shrive,
of Yonkers, told of young woman
in that city whose sight was restored
after putting drops of oil on her eyes
and praying The REV. DR.. Thomas
said miracles were not confined to
marvels in healing A young woman
who believed in faith hired u house in
Brooklyn at $3.50 year, but she had
no money to pay the rent. DR.. Thomas
saw that the first months rent was
paid, and the young woman tried to
induce the agent to have faith for the
remainder of his pay. A young woman
in New Haven was cured by a doctor
in Boston. DR.. Thomas questioned
her rather sharply, and her reply made
him little cautious. She said the
greatest obstacle to her cure by faith
was the ministers. DR.. Sampson spoke
of woman ill with typhoid fever,
who was not expected to live. Prayers
were sent up for her and she re-
cOveEed. DR.. ;Kerfoot, Of Baltimore,
told of sick brother who was prayed
for and the remark of person who
suggested that it was no wonder he
got well when six doctors quit going
to see him.
