A Church in a Rock.

In the quaint old German town Of
Oberstein an ancient church stands,
built in the great rock rising from the
river. The front of the building is of
stone, but the church itself is followed
out of the rock and penetrates far into
its heart. Tradition says that in the
fourteenth century the count of Ober-
stein. one of the old robber barons, fell
deeply in love with a beautiful young
lady, the daughter OF a neighboring
knight.
His brother also sought the fair
maiden's hand and the two suitors had
a. violent quarrel. The upshot was
that the count flung his hapless broth
er from the top of his castle wall
high up the precipitous cliff Repent
ing of lis awful deed. the count vowed
that he would build a church where
his brothers body first touched the
ground. He did SO, excavating the
church in the rock; and tradition goes
on to say a miraculous spring of clear
water sprang from the crag as a token
that heaven was appeased. This
curious church Is now the only
