His Wonderful Cures. Are they Mira
cIes, or What Are They?
Or. r. c. Flower of Boston.

Boston Globe
We published short time ago quite a
lengthy article about the professional work
of Dr. r. c. FLOWER of Boston. We have
recently come into possession of a pamphlet
devoted to the life and work of DR.. FLOWER,
giving numerous accounts of his
MIRACULOUS CURES
and almost supernatural triumphs over dis
ease We believe a review of the same
would be highly interesting to our readers.
The book reads more like fairy story than
anything else, yet every claim and assertion
is substantiated by numerous facts.
We publish below number of extracts
from this book that our readers may know
more Of the doings of this wonderful physi-
clan, who seems to have stirred the earth
with his professional triumphs from centre
to almost circumference. The first chapter
is a biographical history of the Doctor,
which starts out by saying:
For some years DIR. r. G.. FLOWER has
startled the Eastern world from time to time
nv performing what have seemed miraculous
or supernatural cures. One writer, in de-
scribing DIR. FLOWERS triumph in the sick
room, says: sickness IS q toy IN hls hands;
in q most phenomenal eody he sheds light into
the darkened eye, life into the dying form,
and robs the sick-room Of its sufferer and the
DR. FLOWER has been called to consult
over important and bad cases from the
Rockies to the Chesapeake, from Canada to
the Rio Grande His greatest ability is seen
in desperate cases, and his mightiest feats
and most miraculous cures at the death-bed
itself.

four years Of age, smooth face, medium size,

The Flower Mission.

This summer for the first time since the
organization of the Flower Mission, the sup
ply of flowers has been very meagre, and
many poor invalid has missed for the two
weeks the accustomed flowers which were a
message of remembrance, as we'll as one of
cheer and beauty. Those persons who have
an abundance of flowers in their gardens
know how much the daily supply of fresh
flowers adds to the attractiveness of their
homes, but they can scarcely imagine how
much these are appreciated in humble homes
where the weekly ministrations of the Flow
er Mission are almost their only connection
with the outside world, and the flowers bring
to them their only glimpse of summer fra
GRANGE, freshness and beauty. The patients
in the Greeley and Maine. General Hospitals
are also remembered and the pleasure which
is conferred is evident by the eagerness with
which the flowers are received, and the care
with which they are cherished. To each
dainty bouquet, verse of poetry or a verse
of scripture is attached, and after the flow
ers have faded, these help to divert the
mind from the discomforts or suffering. Do
not let this beautiful mission fail, for if a
few flowers can be plucked from each gar
den the work will go on as effectively as in
former years, and s0rroWing and suffering
hearts will be cheered. Each Saturday
morning from to 10 O'Clock the Fraternity
Rooms will be opened and the young ladies
will be in attendance to receive the flowers
or, if notified will call for such supplies as
cannot be conveniently sent to the rooms.

wound, and he was supposed for many weeks
to be dead, but finally he turned up in the
hospital at Hartford, Conn, where he par.

Greenwood Garden.

Large audiences at Greenwood Garden are
now the rule, and the fine entertainment
given there by the company at the theatre is
worthy Of the large patronage it is receiving.
Among the artists are the Hoon Family,
consisting of father, son and two daughters,
who perform many musical selections on
their instruments-two comets, trombone
and alto horn; the two latter instruments
being played by the youngest members of the
family. They are excellent musicians. Mr.
and Mrs. Joe Allen, in their sketch entitled
"Disguises," are received with great favor,
the Dutch song and dance and the Jolly
Tar of Mr.. Allen are performed to the life,
while his facial contortions are very anus
ing. Binney and Murray's clog dancing is
very fine.
Last evening at the Garden there was the
largest party of the season. The entire
water front was brilliantly Illuminated with
Chinese lanterns, and the large party present
pronounced the entertainment the best yet
witnessed. Tonight the marine battle will
