Tine Human BODY.

Tomorrow evening Dr. G. A. Greene will
deliver in the opera house the first of series
of lectures on physiological subjects. The re-
cent prosecution of Dr. Greene, at the instance
of the Lancaster medical society, has created
in the public mind desire to see and hear
what manner of man the doctor il. The wit
nesses against him were nearly all doctors and
they bluntly accused him OF quackery and
charlatanism. When DR.. Greene produced his
diploma, granted by Pittsfeld, Mass, college,
somo of the medical gentlemen hilted tnat 1t
was bogus and others said they had never
heard of the college from which it is purpOrted
to have been issued. The existence of the col
legc and the genuincness of DR.. Grcenes di-
ploma can DO easily established Even sin ce
Dr. GrccneS prosecution 1t has been aScer-
tained that DR.. Eckert of this county, gradu-
ated at Pitts1ield college in ls55 that the dis
tinguished writer DR.. j. q. Holland graduated
there In 1912, that Gov. George Briggs. of Mass,
was one of the trustees. end that DR.. Oliver
Wendell Holmes was granted by the college
an honorary degree. AS the Lancaster doctors
have taken liberties with DIR. Greene's good
name, he will probably make it pleasant for
them in his lectures.

Dificulty of Obtaining Port VINE

The diaculty of obtaining a pure Port Wine
for sickness is one great cause why physicians
refuse to prescribe it where they know it
would benefit their patient. because they fear
that some poisonous mixture will be given
them instead of Port Wine, and the injury be
irreparuDlc. California wines are being terri
bly, mixed and adulteratcd with alcohol and
water and other ingredients to make it cheap,
SO rs to bring greater profit from the sales.
Tho Aost excellent and finest Port Wine Is
made In New Jersey, from the OpOrtO Grape,
by Alfred Speer, and has become the most re-
liable wine for Hospital and Communion pur-
poses. This wine has been thoroughly anal yzcd,
and is pronounced by chemists to be the pure
juice of the grape. and to contain the most val
liable medicinal properties. 1t is sold by drug
Sists, who purchase direct from Mr.. Speer's
Vineyards in New Jersey.-EreniRg Post.
The above wine has become in great demand
| in New York and Brooklyn for Communion
and Hospital use. This wine is endorsed by
Drs. Atlee and Davis and sold by ii. +. Stay

Wooden Buildings.

As there seems to be some misconcep.
tion regarding the ordinance which pro
hibits the erection of wooden buildings in
certain specified limits of the city we re-
publish the second section Of the ordi-
nance
SEC. 2. That from and after the
passage of this ordinance 1t shall
not be lawful for any person, Or
persons, to erect, construct, enlarge,
or remove from one place to another, or
cause to be erected, constructed, enlarged
or SO removed. any wooden or frame build
ing within the block or area of the city of
Lancaster, limited as follows: Commenc-
ing at the corner of Mulberry and Walnut
street thence out Walnut street to the
New Holland turnpike road, along said
turnpike to Shipper, up shippen to East
King street, up East King to Church
street, down Church to German
street, down German to Water
street, up Water to Vine street, up Vine
to Mulberry street and thence northward
along Mulberry street to the place Of be-
ginning Provided, that privy, or other
wise necessary house, no larger than ten
feet square and nine feet high may be
erected.
Some persons construe the words 'Other-
wise necessary house. to give them war
rant for erecting a ten-feet-square build
ing to be used for any purpose they may
deem necessary. The mayor holds that
the words necessary house, ara only
another name for "privy," and that no
wooden building can be lawfully erected
within the prescribed limits, to be used for
any other purpose; and that the ordinance
as thus construed shall be strictly on
forced
