How Raphael Settled His Bill.

Raphael, the great Italian painter,
whose celebrated Biblical pictures are
worth fabulous sums of money, was
not rich man when young, and en-.
countered some of the vicissitudes of
life, like many another genius. Once
when travelling he put up at an inn
and remained there unable to get
away through lack of funds to settle
his BILL The landlord grew suspici-
Gus that such was the case, and his
requests for settlement grew more
and more pressing. Finally young
Raphael, in desperation, resorted to
the following device.
He carefully painted upon a table
top in his room a numbee of gold
CONS, and placing the table in GER
tain light that gave startling effect,
he packed his few belongings, and
summoned his host.
"There," he exclaimed, with lord
ly wave of his hand toward the table,
lis enough to settle my bill and
more. Now kindly show the way to
the door"
The innkeeper, with many smiles
and bows, ushered his guest out, and
then FASTENED back to gather up his
! gold. His rage and CONSERVATION
| when he discovered the fraud knew nc
bounds, until wealthy English trave
ler, recognizing the value of the art
put in the work, gladly paid him fifty
pounds for the table.-Hayper'!

The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1897-07-22

For some time past the Lake Region has
been receiving reports from Umatiils,, Fla,
of an almost miraculous cure that had been
effected in the case Of Fannie Adams, q
daughter Of A. J. Adams, Of that place, and
last Saturday q representative of this paper
made trip TO Umatilla for the purpose Of
determining the authenticity Of the same.
The family live a short distance from the
village, where it was found that the people
were cognizant of the cure which had been
effected, and were rejoicing with the family
in their new found happiness. The father,
A. j. Adams, is a hard-working honest
farmer from east Tennessee, and the family
came to Florida four years ago in the hone
that a change of climate would be of benefit
to their afflicted child. Much of their earn.
ings have gone for doctors bills, whose SER
vices proved unavailing The representative
was greeted by Mrs. Adams, from whom he
gained the story of her great trial.
Fannie, the youngest child, was born in
east Tennessee, and was seven years old on
the third day. of February, 1897. When ten
months old she was stricken with paralysis,
which affected the entire left side. This
stroke of paralysis was followed by convul-
sions, and from the time little Fannie was
ten months old until February, 1897, there
was not q single day or night that she did
not have spasms of the most Distressing
nature. Not a single convulsion, but al
ways three or four, and sometimes as high
as ten in one day.
The family was all broken down with
care, and Mrs. Adams states that for one
year she did not 90 into her kitchen TO super.
intend her household work. All the fingers
of the right hand of the little girl are en-
larged and misshapen, caused by her bit
ing them during the fearful suffering. The
case baffled the skill of the best physicians,
and they were frank to say that they could

not determine the cause, or prescribe
remedy to aid the afflicted child.
But what change now in that household
for little Fannie has recently been released
from her six years of agony, which brings the
light Of happiness to the faces of the parents.
In January, this year, Mrs: Adams, VINO
had purchased some of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People for her fourteen yoar
old daughter, determined TO try their effect
upon little Fannie. After three or four
doses, she noted an improvement and she
then told the father what she had done.
He at snce went TO the village and bought
another box, and up TO this time six boxes
have been used. The first pills, Mrs. Adams
states, were given in January, the latter part,
or twentieth, and the child had her last con-
vulsion on February Sd, nearly three months
ago. Her general condition has improved in
every way, and il was not month after the
first pills were taken when she began to walk
without assistance.
The pills were bought at the drug store
of DR.. Shelton, in Umatilla. In answer TO
the question, did he, to his personal knowl..
edge, know that the remedy had benefited
Fannie Adams, as was stated by her parents,
the doctor said that he was regular practicing
physician, and as such was 10th to recon-
mend any proprietary medicine, but still he
was ready to dojustce 10 all men, and he did
know that DIR. Williams Pink Pills fore Palo
People had benefited Fannie Adams, and also
volunteered the information that he knew OF
other children in the village who had been
benefited by their use.
