and from perfect health she became very
Ill with nervous prostration and was
carried on stretcher ON the shoulders
of converted mountaineers down to the
town of Mount Verd. Tenn.
Word was sent to Beverly by friends
there describing her condition, saying
that she was unable to be moved that
local physicians said there was no chance
for her recovery and that she wanted
her friends In Beverly to pray for her.
Her case was reported at meeting Of
the Christian Alliance at Salem, and
special prayers were offered for her.
A letter has now been received from
Miss Ober saying that she had suddenly
and completely recovered her health, and
giving the day and hour when she was
released from pain, which corresponds
to the time the general prayers for her
were said in Salem. The letter says that

PRESIDENT AS AN AUTHOR.
Mr.. Cleveland Busy on a work Dealing
With Economic Subjects.

Grover Cleveland IL to appear before
his countrymen III new role. he has
become a literary man, 1t might he
more correct TO say that he has loL g
been a literary man. He has spent four
years, more OF less, III writing book,
still incomplete, which seems likely to
give him an altogether unique position
in our long line of presidents. 1t is a
volume on economic science.
AS a reader Mr.. Cleveland is known
to devote himself almost wholly to
works which afford him material for
his own essay in authorship. This boz K
will probably appear when the president
lays down the cares of office.
Mr. Cleveland is presenting economic
science from point of view somewhat
in advance Of ]. Stuart Mill His book
is divided into four departments, pro-
duction, consumption, distribution and
exchange, and there is a special chapter
under the department Of consumption
on the theory of marginal utility This
theory does not seem to find much favor
with Mr.. Cleveland From what can be
gathered on the authority of those who
have talked with Mr.. Cleveland, he does
not mean to expound doctrine so much
as to make clear the lines along which
progress in economic thought must pro-
coed, This way of going to work has
permitted copious illustration, drawn
from American history. In this Mr..
Cleveland seems to strike a new note.
But there are difficulties in the way
of forecasting the work itself, owing to
the literary methods of the author 1t is
merely an intellectual exercise with
him, and he revises and revises and
makes copious references What he
writes is the work Of his own hand. In
his library at Woodley Mr.. Cleveland
reads far into the night. At this rate it
takes months to write chapter, and
even then there is further delay, because
the manuscript is laid aside and some
times not looked at for many weeks.

WANTS A SACRIFICE.
A Minister Thinks tie Is Called on to De-
stroy His Child.

strOy His Child.
The Rev. Sidney Linscott Of West
Brownfeld, we'll known minister of
the Seventh Day Adventist church, has
become insane from overwork and SAID
the other day;
II shall take my two little ones to
the top of % high hill, stand at one end
Of line drawn in the ground, and let
God decide which one must be sacri-
feed. "
Mr.. Linscott is strong III the belief
that he must offer up one Of his chill
dren.
William kennard was engaged to
watch him. Kennard was sitting in
chair. leaning back with his eyes half
closed. Linscott supposed that he was
asleep and stole softly from the sofa
where he was lying and crossed the
room to the cabinet IN which he has
kept his razor.
Lord, do you wish me to cut his
throat" said tho preacher, then add
ing, as if repeating an answer. 1.-THE
Lord says no. "
Lord. do you wish me TO Jump upon
him and crush himt"
Again to his disordered mind he re-
ceived an answer in the negative. He
then asked if he should run away and
was in the act of leaving when kennard
stopped him.
He is apparently brooding all the
time on the sacrifice that he believes he
has been called upon to perform and
has been placed under strict restraint. -

Idleness plays many parts. There are
the constitutionally indolent - those
who, ike DR.. johnson, are never phys
iceliy ready TO get up in the morning,
bat who, ike him, are possessed of
conscience which compels them now and
again TO face the reflection of what they
have-compared with what they might
have-done and to stand aghast at the
comparison.
There are those whom circumstances
have made idle-riohes, absence of mo-
tive for exertion; i'll health, real or
fancied indulgent friends and much
more often by self indulgence. That idle
ness is che Of the seven deadly sins
gives them no sort of concern. 1t is OF
the essence of their complaint to have
no feeling of their own infirmity. They
are asleep. They cannot tell their
dreams. for they do not even know that
they are dreaming.
Giving up, nerveless relaxation, has
become habit, and to them-as to the
immortal Mr.. Toots, though from diff
ferent motive-nothing is OF any conse-
quence. But whereas it was his own con-
venience, his own feelings, his own
comfort, that never were Of consequence
to the unselish Toots, it is precisely
your convenience, your feelings, your
comfort that are, TO the idle man, OF no
consequence. Floating idly about on
"the great Pacific ocean of Incidence, "
he makes first one compromise. then an
other, with self respect, until he ends by
sacrificing the esteem of his fellow men
on the private altar of his own sloth.
His affairs get first muddled. then en-
barrassed, then decaying, then desper-
ate, sud he feebly fiatters himself with
an idea of repose, now that all is gone.

New belts are of soft, gay plaid silk.
knotted under a metal clasp at one side,
and are suggestively named toreador.
Framboiss Or raspberry red is a color
that will be much seen in millinery,
felt bonnets and hats being shown OF

Wide effects continue in millinery.
The early autumn hats look very much
overloaded in their abundance Of ostrich
plumes, wide ribbons and elaborate or
naments.
All browns with a reddish tinge are
in especial favor for the coming cool
season, though no wardrobe will be
complete without one good black gown
for the street.
The pretty fichus Of the summer in
gauze null and chiffon are to be contln-
ued for autumn wear in heavier mate
rials. They are of the regulation Marie
Antoinette cut and are trimmed with
lace or ruffles.

colored silk 10 match the bodice worn
with them need only small, full cape OF
