are by no means sighted. A case is
cited concerning one young woman who
entered it's doors quite unable to walk.
She had heard of the cures that had
been made. and yet for herself she was
fearful, timid, eomewhat doubtful. A
diseased spine was the cause of her
affiiction. A consultation was held and
the opinion was that there was a way
to reach the seat of the trouble. The
patient was soon operated upon.
Friends and relatives waited and
watched with deep anxiety for the re-
suit When told that after a time the
patient would actually be able to walk
they were thankful, indeed. yet still a
bit incredulous. Not until they saw the
miracle with their own eyes could they
had said. She achieved what her
friends had come to look upon as i'm
possible. To their delight and to the
patients unbounded Joy, she found her
self able to stand and walk about a
bit one glorious day. 1t took time to
but from the moment she had found
herself actually taking the first step a
new life had dawned for the young
woman.
Men and women who are unable to
walk appeal especially to ones pity,
alteration are shown these victims of
misfortune at Providence. A grown
man, quite deprived of the power of
moving about normally, appealed to the
hospital for relief. A warm welcome
was extended to him and he was taken
in hand. An examination was made by
able surgeons and an operation was
decided upon. A piece Of bone was
sixfslsuliy removed, with the result that
the patient left the institution practi-
ceodingly happy one.
