In (lie olit days,

"•'Oiled Leuli. esiryd i i uiarry her.
At that, day there were tearful
Atijierstitiotis current amongst tin-
ignorant, some of whom believed
iliat Hebrew women ale lit lie clul-
d.ien, and that they conbl cast a I
sorts of d|>t Its upon Christ inns; and
the farmer, though a good man,
pLadcd with his son to give no his
faticy for Leah. However, the bo^
seamed so broken lieartetl tout the
fai Iter, « ho loved him dearly, con
'id ud w iii, iho vi'l.i.je past or and
tlk* seuool master as m what wa.-
oesi to do.
The pastor was a kindly man. who
aas Very pitiful in all, boo the
school-iiiasler was crafiy and cruel.
He was aciually a Jew who had pm;
fussed Christianity through fenr of
persecution, md his greatest dread
was that, the villagers would discover
Inin, and amongst the people with'
whom Leah lived he had seen an old
man who knew him well. His only
hope of scaping discovery seamed
to be to irivo those Jewish people
from the poor place in which they
soughi shelter, anil he fo-osaw that
if Rudolph, I he farmer's sou, married
Leah, n.is would become impossible,
therefore lot conceived a plan
widen would rid him of thcii
presence
•‘My good friend,” he said to the
farmer, “your son is blinded by the
• *vauiy ol this girl. Slio is really
mercenary. Offer her a sum id
money, and she will leave him and
depart. I will become your messenger
and bring you back the nows.”
The father reported this >o Jtu
iolph.
“My son,” he said, “I will take
no unfair advantage of you. I will
usk the school master to undertake
tim m'ssion. But if the girl refuses
tin* money you shall marry her; for
I shall know that she loves you and
is i rm\”
Rudolph, who trusted Leah im
plicitly, consented with joy, thanked
bis father and awaited the r<snii
calmly.
Ale#iv while the school-master
hurried away, and sought tin* old
patriarch of (ho Jewish parly,
Abraham by name, to whom hi
represented that it was desired iha>
m> should move away from tin
Neighborhood and lake ttic other*-
with him, and that the money wu-
offered him to do so. He felt saf-v
ill doing this, for hu had discovered
that Abraham had become blind.
However, afte*- he had agreed to
depart, ifrnj had accepted tile mon
ey, Abraham remembered the
apostate's voice, and charged him
with being Nathan—atfow who hud
gicaily incensed his people years be
fore, and threatened to exposed him;
and in terror-of discovery, Nathan
killed.the old man.
Reaching the farm-house, he re
ported that the Jewess hud accepted
(lie money and leliuquished her lover.
The farmer rejoiced, ami Rudolph,
all his love turned to hate, renounced
Lite unhappy Le.di, and botroilied
himself to a young und worthy girl
who had long loved imn in secret.
Leah, anxious und alarmed,sought
an interview with him, but he
repulsed her with reproaches. They
were cruelly unjust, aud fell upou
her heart like deadly blows; but,
souing that he was tu some way
misled aud forsaken, she forgave tiim
and loved hiui still.
Hut terror had seized upon the
Jewish family. Their old father
wns found dead, and they hastened,
to leave the spot. Before they de
parted Leah wundcrcd ubout the
woods, bidding adieu to the scene of
her depar'cd happiness, and came
olio evening to the door ol the
church, lit with many lamps and full
i rough i> ini.

and thill it. was he who had been
false to her while, she, was m:e u
imn. Shame and grief weighed
poor Rudolph mi ihe earth. He
lell at Leah's feet and begged tier
pardon; but slut, ii,stilled ami
etmigeil, spurned him from her.
Then lifting her hands toward
neuven. she called i.pou 'lie God
of Israel to curse him, and uttered
the awful inali dim ion of her faith
cursing him aud those ho loved, and
all hat he possessed or should possess
—nis future children, should lie
have any, his friends. Ins servauts
and his cattle, and rushed away into
the woods, leaving him prostrated
on the ground.
Rudolph mado no attempt at
concealing what had happened, amt
from that hour never foigot Luult's
malediction.
But she returned no more, and no
evil fell upon him. His wife uml
children were well, und his business
prospered. But for remembrance of
t>is til’st love lie would have be* ii
happy.
.Meanwhile, the murderer lived in
the--village,' boasting of his piety,
and.persecuting all of his own race
who crossed his path.
Enraged by his injustice, Rudolph
at last determined to seek the
euiporor and ask foe protection for
•he Jews.
It was. at that time, against the
law to shelter or food them, or to
deal with them in any way. For
the sake of Leah's memory, he hoped
to benefit her people, and lott In >a<
for thut purpose.
ilis wife awaited his rct’nru
anxiously, and as the time wt>m uq.
•almost despaired of ever seeing him
again.
•She stood at her garden gato one
day, watching the road, when a wo
man. panting and trembling, rushed
towards her and begged for pro tec
t ion.
Sho was a Jewess. Behind her
followed the scInoLmasier and his
pupils, furious, and full of threats
and menaces.
The-good woman protected her,
and even against the law, gave her
shelter. But as the poor creature's
senses reiurued she recognized the
place; for this was Leah, and no
other. She knew that sha was
speaking to the wife of her old lover
and fury possessed her. She saw
that he had prospered, and all iter
old wrath returned. She watched
Ins little girl us she played about,
aud planned to do her some great
harm. For this purpose she con
cealed herself on lit* place, aud
awaited ins return. Already he was
near. She heard his wife’s cry of
joy; she heard him call her fond
names, and kies her and his daugh
ter; and she crouchod down, listen
ing to their conversation. Then
she heard the purpose of ins visit to
the emperor, and that Ins prayer
had been answered, and us she
listened t > the good that iio hud
dune her people her heart sof’.oned.
His little daughter approached
her. Sheembracid her, aud inquired
her name.
“Leah,” said the little one; “and
my mamma guys I uni to pruy every
night for the Leah l was named
for.”

A FATAL MISTAKE.
Tite Cleveland (Ohio) Press,
of February 23d, 1883, pub
lished an account of a fatal
surgical operation Which caused
a great commotion among med
ical men throughout tho whole
country, Dr. Thayer, tho most
eminent surgeon in Cleveland,
pronouncing it scandalous. It
appears that a Mrs. King had
been suffering for many years
from some disease of the stom
ach, which had resisted the
treatment of all the physicians
in attendance. Tho disease
commenced with a slight de
rangement of the digestion,
with a poor appetite, followed
by a peculiar indescribable dis
tress in the stomach, a feeling
that has been described aa a
faint “all gone'’ sensation, *
sticky slirao collecting about
the teeth, causing a disagree*
t.' ’e taste. This sensation wiaa
not removed by food, but, on
the contrary, it was increased.
After a while the hands and
feet became cold and sticky—
n, cold perspiration. There
wns a constant tired and lan-
§ uid feeling. Then followed a
readful. nervousness, with
gloomy forebodings. Finally
the patient was unable to re
tain any food whatever, and
there was constant pain in the
abdomen. All prescribed rem
edies failing to give relief, a
consultation was held,, when it
wns decided that the patient
had a cancer in the stomach,
and in order tosave thepatient’a
lifo an operation was justifi
able. Accordingly, on the 22d
of February, 1883, the opera
tion was performed 1 by Dr.
Vance in the presence of Dr. .
Tuckerma-.i, Dr. Perrier, Dr.
Arms, Dr. Cordon, Dr. Capner,
nnd'Dr. Kailiwell of the rolice
Board. The operation consist
ed in laying open the cavity
of the abdomen and exposing
the stomach and bowels. When
this had been done an examin
ation of the organs was made,
but to the horror arid dismay
of the doctors there was no
cancer to bo found. The pa-
tient did not have a cancer.
When too late the medical men
discovered that they had mode
a terrible mistake; but they
sewed tlie parts together and
dressed the wound that they
had made, but the poor woman
sank from exhaustion and diet!
in a few hours. IIow sad it
must be for the husband of this
poor woman to know that hi*
wife died from the effects of a
surgical operation that ought
never to have been performed.
If tliis woman had taken the
this was what the disease really
was), she wotild Imre been liv

gestion, has restored many such
cases to perfect health after all
other kinds of treatment hare

ebu’iiry in curing tin; class of
cases is too voluminous to bo

read the published evidence i;i
favor of this d**«;vntie remedy
