Miss JENNIE SMITH is lady who has at
tracted much attention for more reasons
than one. In the first place, she was an
invalid for eighteen years, confined to her
bed, and unable to walk step. She claims
to have been healed in answer to prayer.
The circumstances of her restoration were
truly mysterious, and at the time created
quite sensation, and attracted great deal
of interest to the lady herself, as we'll as to
the subject of faith healing. Whatever the
skeptical may say, one thing is certain, that
after eighteen years of helpless invalidism,
which defied the skill of earthly physicians,
she announced her intention Of appealing
to the Great Physician. And through her
own prayers and the prayers of others she
claims his help, and as suddenly as the lame
man who lay at the gate called Beautiful
was healed, she was restored. Her fame as
a Gospel Temperance worker is we'll known.
She will hold series of meetings in this
city, beginning at $3.50 o'clock Wednesday.
July 18th, in the Academy Of Music. Let
the friends Of temperance give her hearty
welcome.
