.INTEREST IN NEW
METHODS GROWING
Remarkable Success Here At
tracting Attention.
Prof. James Munyon, the health ex
pert, had a trenuous time yesterday.
People seemed to flock to him on ac
count of his remarkable success, and
it was a difficult matter to get within
speaking distance of him. Several
persons expressed themselves forcibly
in explaining the reasons for their be
lief of the man. One young woman,
who ia very prominent in the city,
said:
"I have been suffering for years
with a combination of stomach troub
les, catarrh and other troubles, with
general debility. I could hardly do
anything at times on account of the
pain in my stomach, side and chest.
had a dull gnawing pain in the pit of
my stomach, palpitation of the heart,
and a feeling of weakness that I could
not understand. Headaches most of
the time, with extreme nervousness,
made it so that I could not eat, and
what little food that I did eat I did
not seem to get any strength from.
Very often I would have to get up at
night for something to eat in order to
stop the hungry feeling that would
come over me.
"Munyon's treatments had been
suggested to me, but I laughed at the
idea that they could do me any good,
as I had tried so many doctors and rem
edies without relief. I was tired,
nervous and worn out all the time.
Nothing I could do made me feel any
better. y
"I had little hopes that his new
treatment could help me, but when I
heard what wonderful work he was
doing here I decided to consult him.
Now I feel like a woman made over;
am regaining my weight, feel well
and cheerful all the time. I wag sur
prised at the quick results, for my im
provement was almost immediate;. my
soreness vanished and I could eat any
thing I wanted to. I look and feel 10

Prof. Munyon's new treatment."
"This statement is one of many,"
said the health expert today. "I
have not had one single case of dis
satisfaction or poor results from my
treatment in this city since opening
here.
''I believe that I can do as much for
others as I have done for her. My
methods are simple, founded on Na
ture, and I have made stomach trouble
a deep study for years. That ex
plains my universal success.
"I want every man or woman suf
fering from rheumatism, bladder-kidney
troubles or indigestion to go to
the nearest drug store and get my
remedies. These little pellets remove
the cause of your trouble once for all.
If you are not sure just what your
trouble is, write a personal letter to
Prof. J. M. Munyon, 53d and Jeffer
son Sts., and he and his expert corps
of physicians will give you medical
advice absolutely free. They will
send you an examination blank and
ask quostions and give you the most
painstaking examination and there is
not a penny to pay nor are you under
any obligation to follow their advice.
I Hit Right to Title.
! A French paper says that a New

residence upon a piece of land, his
Tight to which was contested: "1

property," he observed, "as I ate the
preceding owner."

I Essence of Fine Breeding.
' In families well ordered there li al
ways one firm and sweet temper,
which controls without seeming to dic
tate. The essence of all fine breeding
la In' the gift of oscillation. A man
who possesses every other title to our
respect besides that of courtesy, Is In
.danger of forfeiting them all. A rude
manner renders its owner always
liable to affront. He Is never without
dignity who avoids wounding the dig
nlty of others.

TOE
EVERY summer thousands of
Americans make their Initial
trips across the Atlantic to tour
Europe. All bad sailors know
the moment when It Is best to seek
a chair and keep still. ' if the situ
ation Is to be saved. The man in the
picture has reached this stage. All
would probably be well had not the
woman with the baby dropped the
feeding-bottle. Her maid, in the back
ground. Is. past hope. The man's duty
Is clear. But. then if he moves?
One of the most Interesting features
of an American's first European tour
Is the comparison of transatlantic cus
toms In hotel and railway with those
of the land of the brave and the home
of the free. Many things that to thq
seasoned traveler have become com
monplace long ago strike the 'tourist
on his initial trip as highly amusing.
Col. Brotherton of Kentucky, for in
stance, naa Deen recommended to a
quiet Italian hotel. Returning - late
from San Carlo, where almost every
tourist goes on his first night in Na
ples, he was amazed In passing along
the cprridor to see outside nearly ev

the floor sundry dress skirts and frou
sers hung upon large branching brass
hooks. A garcon who was sitting in
the corridor tried in broken English
to explain It was the custom fnr trov.
elers to leave the clothing they had
worn during the day outside their
doors to be brushed. But the colonel
was incredulous. "Never saw any
thing like It in America." he said.
"Likely as not' It's some sort of skin
game, and all those fools will wake
up in the morning and find their
clothes stolen. Not I! I'll brush my
own."
Wouldn't Leave Her Key.
Miss Clarissa Blvthe of Vermont
was perfectly astounded at havine her
chambermaid rush after her as she
carefully deposited the key of her
room In her beaded reticule, and ex
claimed: 'But. madam! Please leave your
key beside the door. I must have it
to go in and -do your room."
Power From Tide end Winds.
At the recent meeting- of the British
association the question of economical
productlonof power from tides and
winds was again under discussion, and
it has been taken up widely by scien
tific Journals in Europe. La Revue
Sclentlflque calls attention to a sys
tem of utilizing the power of sea
waves to actuate a dynamo which has
been employed during the last six
months at the mouth of the River
Glronde. An air chamber is connect
ed with a well, which communicates
with the sea at a depth below the
level of the lowest tides. By the ad
vance and recession of the waves
changes of pressure are produced in
the air chamber, and a system of
valves enables the resulting air cur
rents to be applied to rotating a kind
turbine. It Is said that the apparatus
works equally well In calm and in
stormy weather.
His Reason.

Mrs. Rogers Why?

my other expenses. Harper' Bazar.
"But where Is your passkey?" she
demanded.
"I have none," the maid replied.
"See," she said, pointing to the hook
at the side of the door, the same hook
dedicated to skirts and trousers, "vou
must hang your key here when youJ
go out."
An Englishman who' was sailing
from Boston not long ago was reduced
to one pair of really comfortable
boots. These he placed outside his
door to be polished on the eve of his
departure, and he woke In the cold
gray dawn to find his boots gone and
not a porter in the hotel who could
trace them. He was forced to descend
In' his slippers and buy a new pair of
stiff, uncomfortable boots to wear to
the steamer, and to this day he has
not ceased to curse American hotels.
In Germany one of the up to date
hotels has' a little locker in every
guest room between the bedroom and
the corridor, with a door on either
side. He opens the door in his room,
puts In his trousers and boots or what
ever clothing needs attention. The
valet passes along the corridor, opens
each door with his own pass key, and
removes the clothing to brush it, re
turning it and locking the door care
fully upon it, and when the owner
awakes he has only to open his little
door, and there are his clothes all
ready for him.
The European bed always 1 strikes
the uninitiated American traveler as a
huge Joke. In France they commence
to Impress him with their height and
narrowness and'' he looks dubiously at

A Russian, who, although he has
been some time in Paris, knows little
or nothing of ..he French languige,
has Just been sentenced to a -.onth's
Imprisonment for having assaulted

count after an explanation from his
counsel that the word which the po

of such an altitude as to necessitate
a pair of steps to mount them.
Tricks Played on the Traveler.
Sometimes in European hotels the
tourist Is taken solemnly to one side
and told that by paying a few francs
or lire more he can have the royal
bedchamber. A certain hotel in Sor
rento, where a dozen or more royal
heads have lain in one season, is even
more generous, for it the rooms are
empty they make no extra charge
And the traveler lives to recount when
he is back on his native heath how his
cheek pressed the same pillow that
bad been used by the little queen of
Holland or the king of, Saxony. But
that is not a purely European custom,
for to this day in a certain Boston ho
tel the sacred chamber occupied by
Prince Henry of Prussia is listed at
about $10 a day more than any other
room in the house.
Most American travelers on their
first trips abroad are astounded when
upon the day of their departure from
a hotel they are presented with their
bill by the head waiter instead of by
the landlord or by his chief clerk. But
It is the custom and this Important in
dividual Is thus assured of his tip.
The traveler thinks It a little
strange that coffee is always extra at
luncheon and dinner, but when he or
ders coffee, at an average of 6 or 6
cents extra, the enp, it is freshly made
expressly for him and Is not the cof
fee that has- stood for hours In the
pot. Another thing that strikes him
as funny is the fact that there are ele
vators to go up, but that be cannot
use them to go down. One" European
sign in a small hotel reads: "No one
Is allowed to descend In the elevator
but Invalids and the aged." In the
larger hotels the lifts are used as
they are' In America, but so leisurely
are they that one usually prefers to
run downstairs on shank's mare.
Economy in lights is another trait.
and where, as usual, there are two
electric lights in the room, one over
the bed to read by and another in
the celling, one cannot he turned on
without turning the other off. But a
young American engineer solved the
difficulty by unscrewing the porcelain
cap of the switch and sticking in a
hairpin to make the connection. He
had two lights, and no one was ever
the wser. And his conscience? It
never troubled him at all; it was one
of those elastic one you' read about
It does not take long to remember,
after you once know, that if you
want to buy salt In Italy you must go
to a tobacco shop to get It; for both
salt and tobacco are government mo
nopolies. And It is a pleasure to learn
that, In France you can buy stamps
and postcards at tobacco shops, which
are under government Jurisdiction
there as well. Also that in both coun
tries you can send telegrams at as low
a rate as 14 cents for ten words, and
that special delivery letters will go
for 6 cents in Paris if you remember
to write across your envelope "Pneu
matique," which means that the letter
will be shunted through a pneumatic
tube in no time at all, and delivered
almost as soon as a telegram.
Manuring With Mud.
In China and Japan, according to
Professor F. H. King, as much labor
and time are spent in special fertiliza
tion of the soil as In seeding and har
vesting the crops. . In addition to
barnyard and household manure, great
quantities of bean, rape seed, cotton
seen and peanut oil cake are used as
fertilizers, and an enormous; tonnage
of canal, reservoir and river mud is
also applied. Single dressings of mud
sometimes amount to from 70 to 100
tons per acre. The practice of irri
gation is very extensive, and all Ir
rigated areas are placed under condi
tions which practically eliminate sur
face erosion. Both canal and reser
voir mud are fermented in organic
matter to be used as fertilizers: The
Mongolians practice systematically
the culture of legumes as a source of
nitrogen. The dense population and
increasingly 1 smaller holdings both
necessitate and render possible the
bestowal of extreme personal care
upon the crops.
About Thimbles.
The thimble was at first worn on
the thumb, and for that reason was
called a thumb bell, which later be
came thumble and finally thimble. It
was invented by the Dutch, and
brought to England in 1695.
- The first thimbles were made of
Iron or brass; later came those of sil
ver, gold, steel, horn, ivory, pearl and
glass. The Chinese make beautiful
thimbles of carved pearl, with gold
binding and ends.
One of the most gorgeous thimbles
ever seen was a bridal girt from the
king of Slam to ins queen; it was
made of gold, shaped like a lotus bud,
and was thickly studded with dia
monds, arranged so af to spell the
queen's name.
