HER PRAYER IS ANSWERED

Coughs Up a I lean from Her Langs and Will Not Be “Put in the Cold Ground.” Princeton, Ind., March 23. The prayer of little Mary Jeude, that she “not be put down in the cold ground” has been answered, for she has expelled a small bean from her lungs, which had been slowly killing her. The child is a daughter of Henry Jeude, a German farmer, living south of this city. She swallowed a bean, which lodged near the top of her lungs. The obstruction lodged just behind the shoulder blade, so that an operation, at least a successful one, was out of the question, and she was given up as hopeless by the doctors of an Evansville hospital. The child, however, did not lose her simple faith and prayed every day that she might cough up the bean and thus save her life. She was seized with a paroxysm of coughing and was thought to be dying. During the hardest of the coughing fit the bean was expelled. The child stopped coughing and went into a restful sleep, for the first time In eight weeks.

Napoleon’ii Generosity. Count de P. had been raised by Bonaparte to honors and dignities, but for some unaccountable reason he betrayed the confidence which his patron had reposed In him. When Bonaparte became cognizant of the man’s treachery he ordered him to be arrested. He was to have been tried the following day and In all probability he would hare been condemned, as his guilt was fully established. In the meantime Mme. de P. solicited and obtained an audience of the emperor. “I am very sorry for your suite, madame,” he said, “that your husband should be mixed up In an affair which places his Ingratitude in so glaring a light” “Perhaps he Is not so guilty as your majesty supposes,” said die countess. “Do yon know your husband’s signature?” inquired the emperor, taking a letter out of his pocket and handing It to her. Mme. de P. rapidly perused the letter, recognized the handwriting and fell into a swoon. When she came around Bonaparte put the letter into her hands, saying: “Take it This Is the only legal evidence that exists against your husband. There Is a lighted fire behind you.” The countess quickly snatched up the Important document and threw It Into the flames. P.’s life was saved, but as for his honor, not all the Influence of a generous emperor could avail to restore it V 4 Lour Hencoop*.
