dangerous experience which LEFT him in a
helpless state His system was 80 much
shattered that it was feared he might never

In an interview with reporter of the

had attracted considerable attention, Mr.
"in March, 1892, / was taken with what 1
afterward learned was locomotor ataxia, and
was unable to walk, and / kept getting
worse until I lost the use of my arms. I
doctored with two skillful doctors but re-
eeived no benefit, and also used galvanic
battery but kept gstting worse and the doc
tors told me they could do no more. This
was in May and June, 1892. / gave up all
hope Of ever having the use of my limbs
again, and did not expect to live very long.
i was unable to dress or undress myself, and
could not get around the house unless was

What most concerns us is the reIa-

our death and future life, says the evan
gelist in the Ladies' Home Journal So
many people live in a fearful dread OF
death and the grave. I believe, just be-
cause they do not study this doctrine.
They speak of death and the judgment
with Q shudder, and their vision seems
to be unable to pierce beyond. 1 well
remember how in my native village in
New England it used to be customary
as 4 funeral procession left the church.
for the bell in the buryiDe ground to
toll as many times as the deceased was
years old. How anxiously would count
those strokes of the bell to see how long
/ might reckon on living. Sometimes
there would be 10 or so tolls, and
would give sigh of relief to think
had SO many years to live. But at other
times there would be only few years
tolled. and then a horror would SEIZE
me as thought that 1. too, might soon
be claimed as victim by that dresd
monster, Death Death and judgment
were a constant source of fear TO me
till realized the fact that neither shall
ever have any hold on a child of God
In his letter to the Romans Apostle
Paul has showed. in most direct Ian
guage, that there is no condemnation
for child Of God. but he is passed from

A traveller from Fort Ogden, Fla.
declared that he passed through an
avalanche of frogs ten miles south of
here recently, says dispatch from
Arcadia Fla 1t had been raining ter
ribly for three days and the other day
there WAS almost a cloudburss in this
county, the rain coming down for four
hours ia almost solid sheets. This man
started out and on the way he passed
through a section where for two miles
the frogs literally covered the ground.
The road was covered and the ground
in the woods as far as could be seen
on either side They were crushed be-
meath his horses feet as he rode along.
There were three kinds or sizes. most
of them being the green so-called tree
frogs" 50 abundant there. The small
ones were about an inch long. the Others
being two and three inches. There
were millions of them and the noise
they made was deafening. He brought
several along as specimens.
Its the general opinion here ,ha, the
cloudburst brought them. This is the
first time that this thing has ever hap
pened in this section and the people
are greatly excited over il. The man
stated that the frogs seemed dazed and
hardly moved as he came along.
