A Surprised Physician.
A dying patient RECEIVERS through the IN
terposition OF a humble German.

IeEpOSlIlpH VI q luuiult Wei h.dI.
Chicago, Nov. Is.
Some weeks ago DR.. c., 4 very reput-
able and widely-known physician, living on
c. Street, was called to attend a very
complicated case OF Rheumatism. Upon
arriving at the house he found a man about
forty years Of age, lying in a Frustrated and
serious condition, with his whole. frame
dangerously affected with the painful dis
case. He prescribed for the patient, but
the man continued 10 grow worse, and on
Sunday evening he was found to be IN a
very alarming condition. The knees and ell
bows and larger joints were greatly in
famed, and could not be moved. 1t was
only vita extreme difficulty that the pa
tient could be turned in bed, with the aid
of three or four persons. The weight OF
the clothing was so painful that means had
to be adopted TO keep it from the patient
body.
The doctor saw that his assistance would
be of no avail, and left the house, the mem
bers of the family following him to the
door, weeping. Almost Immediately the
grief-stricken ones were addressed by an
humble German. He had heard OF the
despair of the family, and now asked them
forth a bottle of st. Jacobs Oil. The poor
wife applied this remedy. The first appli-
cation eased the patient very much; after
a few hours they used it again, and, won
der OF wonders, the pain vanished entirely,
Every subsequent application improved the
patient, and in two days he was well and
out. When the doctor called a few days
after, he was indeed surprised.

One day q wagon load Of unexpected rela-

things an apple pie, which seemed to the
boarder far inferior to the pies she usually.

REV. BoRDAHL TO LEAVE.
Pastor Of the MarshaIltown Norwegian
Lutheran Church Called to Wiscon-

sin.
Rev. o. e. Bordahl, pastor of the
Norwegian Lutheran church of this
city, also of the Strand congregation, at
Dunbar, and the Norwegian Lutheran
settlement six miles southeast of Grim
nell, is to close his labors in this vicin-
ity within the next two weeks, and on
March II will leave for Washburn,
Wis, where he has been called to the
church of that city.
Rev Bordahl has been in charge of
the work here, and at Dunbar and
Grinnell. for almost eleven years, hav-
ing celebrated the tenth anniversary of
his pastorate last July. His farewell
sermon to the Grinnell congregation
was preached yesterday morning, and
on next Sunday, at Dunbar. he will de-
liver his farewell address, confirm a
class and preside aver the celebration
of the Lords supper. His farewell SER
mon here will be given on March 16,
with the morning service devoted to the
celebration of the Lords supper, and
the confirmation of class, and the
evening to the goodbye address.
The call to Rev Bordahl from the
Wisconsin city is an unanimous one,
and Rev. Bordahl decided at once to
accept it. His field will be larger. the
salary better, and he will not be incon-
yenienced with having three different
charges to look after.
The congregation of the Norwegian
Lutheran church here has decided on
Rev Bordahl's successor, and has ex-
tended a call to Rev. M. Londahl, of
Wakonda, S. d. AS yet Rev. Londahl
has not sent definite letter of accept
ance. but it is thought he will consider
the call favorably.
