CURED BY PRAYER.
Patient Has Strange Visions and Is Re-
stored to Health.

Philip L. Klein, an intelligent young
man of Baltimore, tells remarkable
story of faith cure, which is substantial
ed by the pastor of st. Stephens Re
formed church and physicians Last
October he was caught and dragged
some distance by locomotive of the
Pennsylvania railroad. His spine was
partially paralyzed, and he suffered
with hemorrhages of the brain For q
month he could not see or walk The
chief professors of the College of Physi-
clans and Surgeons attended him.
In February acute Bright's disease
set in. The physicians gave up hope and
told his friends he would die. A minis
ter was asked to come and pray with
him. Klein now says that he began to
feel relief after the first prayer. The
next day he read the Bible and prayed
all day. That evening, he declares, while
lying wide awake the room was sud-
denly filed with brilliant light, and
he began to feel stronger and better. He
continued to pray. For five months he
had been confined to his room, most of
the time in bed. AT the expiration of
the third day of prayer he rose from his
bed, dressed himself and astonished- his
wife by walking about the room. The
physicians were astonished
Klein told them that before his
strength finally returned he had another
vision. The room became brilliantly IL
Illuminated, and on one wall appeared in
bright letters the Scriptural injunction,
"Take up thy bed and walk" Last
Sunday Klein was admitted to member
ship in st. Stephens Reformed church.

80 miles in 80 minutes. If he fails to do
this, he is to receive no pay. accepted
She proposition, and work will COM

NEW POCKETBOOKS.
The Latest In Fashion Are Made of Casso
wary and Water Snake Skin.

The Latest In Fashion Are Made of Casso-
wary and Water Snake Skin.
The monkey skin pocketbook has a
rival. 1t is a pocketbook made of casso-
wary skin, which is considered the most
popular leather Of the moment.
Cassowary skin, when ready to be
made into pocketbooks, is delicate tan
in color, a shade or SO lighter than the
monkey skin. 1t has the appearance of
being punctured with tiny holes These
new pocketbooks are most deliberately
mounted. Some not only have the cor
ners capped with gold, but on them is a
gold serpent in seeming readiness to
crawl over the cover.
Others have an enameled flower or
two for ornamentation, and the corners
are capped with enamel the same color
as that used for the flower. Another
popular leather for pocketbooks and
belts is water snake skin. This is mot
tied gray in color and looks extremely
well when mounted with silver.

ADRiFT WITH A MANIAC.
A Florida woman's Experience with Her
Insane Husband.

A Florida woman's Experience with Her
Insane Husband.
For 10 hours Mrs. Benjamin Koerger
Of Cocoa, Fla, was adrift In boat with
q maniac, who made repeated attempts
to cut her throat with q razor, one stroke
inf1icting wound in her neck. The
maniac was her husband, and his frenzy
was caused by the approaching depar-
ture of Mrs. Koerger on visit to Ger
many. The struggle continued till Mrs.
Koerger tainted from loss of blood. Then
Koerger's frenzy departed, and when the
boat drifted ashore at o'clock in the
afternoon the husband was bending over
the bloody form of his wife grooming
snatches Of tender songs.
John Grether saw the boat when IL
came ashore. He summoned help, and
Mrs. Koerger, followed by her husband,
was carried to a residence near by. She
was not fatally injured and was revived
In about an hour and told the following
story Of her terrible voyage:
my husband and I left home at
O'Clock in the morning in O boat fol-
Titusville, where was to take the train
for New York. Mr.. Koerger has brooded
greatly over our approaching separation,
and soon after we entered the boat be-
gan to act strangely. Suddenly he drop
ped the oars, and shouting, I can't Let
You go, dear, drew a razor and slashed
at my throat, gashing it ON the right
side ] realized he was crazy and threw
my arms about him and told him ]
would not leave him, and this quieted
him for time, but again the frenzy
came, and he tried to cut me- BE is not
strong, and by clasping him tightly I
saved myself. The struggles continued
at intervals until the afternoon, when
tainted from loss of blood and terror and
knew no more until 1 found myself
here. "
While his wife was talking Mr.. Koer-
ger sat by the bedside singing love songs
and occasionally shouting, You can't
go, dear" The Koergers are wealthy
