could to doliver them from the rain and

been such cause of gratitude to find
themselves safe on land that they would
not think SO much of the rain and cold,
and yet tho kindness of tho natives was

This was the father Of Pnblius, the chief
man OF the island. who was sick Of a fever,
but the Lore. through Paul, instantly
healed him. At one time God wrought
special miracles by the hands OF Paul, so
that by hnndkcrch,efs or aprons which had
touched his body the sick were healed Acts
XIX, II, I'D. At another time Paul had TO
leave Trophiinus Mt Aiiietum Sicl. We
cannot always tell whether health or sick

The New Theatre.

The interior work at the new Portland
theatre is rapidly approaching that stage
where the finer decorative work will soon
begin. Two coats of the rough plaster
ing has been applied, and there now
awaits In the parlors of the house adjoin-
ing ton or two of the decorative plas-
ter work to be adjusted. This work is
being done by Chicago, firm and three
or four rooms on the glound floor are
devoted to the operations. The models
are nearly constructed. and stacked up
10 the double parlors are great piles of
mouldings, oornices and centre pieces of
elaborate design, all of which are to be
decorated in ivory and old gold. The
paintings to adorn the ceilings of the
reception rooms and foyer of the theatre
are to be especially pretty, although no
particular design has yet been decided
upon. Several samples of work from a
Boston artist, arrived at Col Woods
office today and are being carefully in
SPECIFIED. The ceiling centre pieces in
both tho reception rooms will be of cir
cular shape with cloud effects. and
NEUROLOGICAL figures.
