Many wonderful cures are reported, and the fame of St. Anne has grown apace under the mintstrationa of the relic by Rev. Father Roy, ite special keeper, and the fathers of the Order of the Sacred Heart. Many miracle cures are recorde! by church historians in the name of St Anne, and Father Charland has copied the story of “The Finding of the Rell of St. Anne” with his own hand from the authentic records of the Church of | Apt, in France. Anne's body was taken | from Palestine to Apt, and Bishop Auspictus; wishing to protect the body, placed it in a subterranean vault under the church. He died without having divulged its hiding place. Miracle Reveals It. The body remained hidden for cen-| turies, until King Charlemagne at Enster visited Apt and celebrated his victory over the Saracens by having the church reconsecrated, the enemy having In the midst of the cere- monies John de Cazeneuve, who had veen deaf, dumb and blind from birth, Indicated by gestures that he wanted the ground on whicn he stood opened.

One of the most notable cures re- ported by Father Roy was almost the very last. A policeman stationed in the aisle, and not ten feet distant, vouches for it as an eye-vhtne: Miss Johanna Bischoff, a girl of nine- teen years of age, living at No. 407 West Fifty-fifth street, was kneeling on one knee at the altar rail before the shrine of St. Anne. Her other leg stretched out stiff behind her. She had suffered from hip disease from her babyhood, and the joint was stiff and Immovable. Like Lorens Operation. “Suddenly there was a crack of the bone and the joint slipped back into place,” said the police officer; “the young woman got up and walked Ike anybody else. She had not been able to do that before in hor life. She was a very happy «irl, laughing and crying at the same time. Her friends took ker away.” In accordance with his undeviating custom Father Roy refused to discuss uhe cure, merely giving Miss Blschoft's address to the reporter, saying “Let ner talk, if she will.” An Evening World reporter found Miss Bischoff, after her visit to the church, busily engaged in making a summer gown, her mother and sister about her at her nome, ‘Oh, she exclaimed in radiaut happiness; “after fourteen years witu my hip Joint tucued inside out, my back bowe my knees striking together, Iam able to stand upright and walk Like other people—thanxs to the blessed St, Anne. “I fell on the stairs when I was three; at five I was doomed to hip dise: The doctors fussed with me for three years, but could not help me. demanded my son's effects. o years ago 1 made my firat ‘According. to, a. statement made in| novena. 1 was able to leave my crutches [eeert oye Reena e ete || penne the second day.

WITHOUT PARALLEL, 23 Physicians Baffled for 6 Years by a Case That a Change in Food Cured in 6 Weeks. jecond There is almost miraculous power in a change of food if the right food be taken on. A case said to be without parallel Is that of a paralyzed and dumb chid whom 23 different doctors were puz- zled over, yet who recovered his speech in two weeks, and finally got jentirely well by using the scientific |tood Grape-Nuts, This child's mother was asked to tell about the case and said: “Six years ago, without a mo- ment’s warning, my boy went off into convulsions. He had three the first day, and for nearly six years he had from three to sixty spasms a day, all of very short duration, but very severe. He lost his speech en- tirely, and lost the use of his legs and arms, also of his nerve centres, being paralyzed so that he was per- fectly helpless and dumb. I fed him with a teaspoon, and we had him treated by physicians in many of the large cities throughout the country without being able to get any help at all, “In all 23 different physicians ex- amined and treated my boy, and all pronounced his case without parallel in medical history so far as they knew, and beyond the reach of medi- cal science. His bowels never ‘uoved without physic, going as long as three weeks. His lower bowels could not handle food the least bit starchy. “He did not seem to have a disease of any kind, and as the physicians were all baffled I did not know what to do, and we gave up hope. The doctors said his nerves and brain were affected and poor circulation and cerebro-spinal irritation caused his convulsions. He had as high as 200 convulsions in two weeks, as many doctors can testify. “Now comes the wonderful part of the tale, for he had not taken Grape- Nuts one week when his bowels moved, and inside of two weeks he began to talk, only being able to say words of one syllable at first. In six weeks he has improved beyond com- prehension, and his case, which has completely yielded to the pure food, Grape-Nuts. We lost nearly every- thing experimenting with different physicians and specialists, but I shall. have to have Grape-Nuts for my boy if 1 have to beg it.”_ Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. The power of the wrong food to do harm, and the power of the pure food to cure, are realized by very few peo- ple.
