Mrs. Lucy N. Campbell, of Shelby.
vile, Indiana, has been recalled to
life under such extraordinary oiroum-
stances that not q few devout persons
think miracle of God has been per-
formed. -, o..
About three years ago symptoms
of pulmonary consumption began to
develop in Mrs. Campbell. Previous
to tbat time she had been partiou.
larly robust woman with comely
face and fine figure. Her life was an
active one, she being always fore
most in church and charity work.
Two years ago prominent physicians
who had been called in consultation
told Mrs. Campbell that her left lung
was entirely gone and that perma-
nent cure was almost hopeless. A
few weeks since Mrs. Campbell
dreamed she was dead.
As the days passed she became
weaker and weaker, Mr. Campbell
being constantly detained at home,
fearing to go out of town. One day
recently Mrs. Campbell was worry low.
She was reclining on couch, on
deavoring to secure some rest, when
she felt she was sinking away. Sum-
moning her husband she requested
him to assist her to her bed. In a
few moments she was in sleep or
a stupor. She remained in this
comatose condition only a short time
when she awoke with a start, calling
to Mr.. Campbell, who was quickly
by her side.
With an exclamation of joy she
inquired repeatedly if he could sec
any change in her. He gazed into
her face attentively and longingly
for come indication of change. He
noticed the eyes grow brighter and
told her.
"Oh, l have had such peculiar SEN
sations and experienced such strange
feelings!" said Mrs. Campbell. "And
[ am not sick; l am well; 1 have
been cured !" rho cried.
Mr.. Campbell was astounded, and
the more 80 when his wife, suiting
action to her words, arose from her
bed, and, going where her clothing
was, dressed herself, washed her
hands and face, combed her hair
functions she had not performed
without as stance for months.
From that hour she has been con-
stantly improving, gaining in health
and strength. When Mrs. Campbell
went into her trance-like condition it
was with the greatest difficulty she
could breathe; when she was restored
in that "twinkling of an eye" her
rcspirations were deep and regular,
and continued 80. If her left lung
was entirely gone, it has been re-
stored by some mysterious power,
and, as Mrs. Campbell says: "No-
body furnishes new lungs but God"
What has caused this wonderful
transformation from death unto life;
what power has snatched this woman
from tho grave and breathcd into
her new life, the doctors do not
say. They have no opinion to ex-
press; no theories TO advance. That
Mrs. Campbell is getting we'll there
is no doubt. She says she is, and
the nnrao who has heen with her for
a year confirms the statement. Her
greatest physical disability now is an
extremely nervous condition which
seems to be gradually disappearing.
No Christian Scientist has had
anything to do in the case No per-
sons other than reputable physicians
have ever been called in consulta-
ton. The restoration and healing of
this good woman is deep mystery.
Mrs. Campbell is now able to ride
out. Her old pains of suffocation and
distress have lift her, her happiness
being of the kind that passes the un-
derstanding Of man.-Cleveland
