MILK.
The Testimony of a Physician Who Be-
lieves In Its Nourishing Powers.

A medical man expresses the belief that
a person could live for any length of time
and take heavy exercise all the while on
no other food than sweet milk His con-
yiction is the result of personal cxpcri-
mcnt. He wanted to establish the fact
that persons convalcScing from sickness
may grow stronger with 10 other nutri-
ment than sweet milk and not that they are
obliged to take something solid" to eat
as so many people imagine He holds
that many a conyalescent has gone into
his grave as "a result of oyertaxing his
weak stomach by putting "solid" food in
to it, and he maintains that tho old belief
as to bread being the first essential of hu-
man life is shown by his experiments to
be erroneous.
His test was to live so days with only
sweet milk as nourishmont. In the
whclc tiMo lie lost 515 pounds in weight,
but 10 strength. He even attributes tho
loss OF weight to the warmth of tho wealth
er and to excessive exercise on tho bicycle
and the daily manipulation of l6 pound
dumbballs and other heavy weights. He
took more exercise than usual in order to
test the thing fairly. On the seventh day
of tho experiment he ran several foot races
with Il skillful runner and was beaten in
each race.
On the thirticth day he again pittcd
himself against tho Same runner and did
tho best of the racing, which certainly
would tend to confirm his statement that
he lost 10 strength during the 80 days
test. He drank four pints of milk daily
for the last week. He thinks healthy
person should take about five pints of milk
daily when no other food is being taken.
His practice was to drink milk at intervals
of two hours during the day, commencing
at O'Clock in the morning and continuing
until 10 at night. After that he would
take no more until next morning. g.-phila-

MOTHERS LULLABY.

Hush-a-by, baby!
Mother will sing to thee.
Soft Is the moan of the wind in the tree,
Angels are listening,
Bright stars are glistening,
Like sentinels watching my baby and me.
Hush ably, baby!
What shall sing to theef
Sinketh the bird to her nest on the lea.
Shadows are creeping,
Moonbeams are peeping,
Twilight is deepening o'er moorland and soa
Lullaby, dearie!
Mother is near thee.
Bright may the dreams Of my little one be.
Angels defend thee,
God his love send thee
And carefully guard both my baby and me.

Chi1dren's Reins.

A capital way to use up odd pieces Of
wool of all colors and lengths is to knit
them up into sufficient length for d pair
of reins Just plain, close knitting should
be employed, the bands being made about
IL inches wide. When the length for the
driving reins is finished, the width of the
chest should be measured and another
band fixed on either side, made long
enough to slip over the head, allowing the
reins to pass under the arms. Across the
chest a double rev of bells should be sewed
on at intervals.

Getting Fat In Five Minutes.

One of the most amusing and astonish-
ing of pantomimc tricks ever originated
was that of Il fat man. This was done by
the Ravels One of the actors in the pan
tomimo sits at table and ravenously eats
dish after dish of food that a servant brings
to him. Presently the man, who, like
most ravenouS eaters was rather thin and
scraggy, begins to grow plump His
clothes fit him exactly. His waistcoat
steadily swclls out under the very eyes of
the audience. All the while he is eating
like IL sausage machine In a-few minutes
he has grown to be Il giant, 8 or 9 feet
tall and with the proportions CT an inilat-
ed balloon.
The sight always brings forth roars of
laughter. 1t is comparatively easy to
produce it after you know how. The food
eaten is all property food" and is made
of tissue paper that the actor chcws up in
to little bits and takes out of his mouth
whenever occasion offers His clothes are
all of rubber and made to fit alright
around tho wrists and neck. In sitting
down he puts the heel of one boot over a
little trap in The stage. An assistant inn
modiatcly couples tube running from
pair of bellows to a hole i'll the boot heel
Then he blows him up.
1t must BIC rather unpleasant sensation
to the actor to feel that he is nothing more
than a windbag, but actors arc made to
suffer. BY the time the suit has grown
to its full size, the wind supply is cut off
and the boot heel plugged up. Then, by
an ingenious arrangement of springs I'M
der the actors feet, the height is acquired
There is n beautiful chance in this trick
for some practical joke loving man to
blow in gas that would lift the unfortu-
nate actor off his feet and send him sailing
about over the heads of the audience

Saturday and Today Revealing the Ee-
suit of the Autopsy.
Mrs. Eliza Tyler was strangled to
death and otherwise brutally NAL
treated BY her husband, Thomas
Tyler. before being thrown into the
river by the latter at Cordova.
This was developed in the second
inquest conducted at Cordova on the
exumed remains following the post
norton examination held Saturday
evening. The actual identity of the
woman. previously unknown, was
established for the first time in The
ARGUS Saturday evening, as a result
of Constable Eckhart's Investigation,
and the announced autopsy was con-
Quoted that evening by Drs. George
Merryman. of this city. and W. L.
Freek. of Cordova. The jury sum-
moned by Deputy Coroner L. V.
Fckhart for the second inquest con-
sisted of II. A. Weld. Daniel thinner
man. l.. II. Reeves. Theodore Abbott,
George W. Tcw and William III.
Gale. The inquest was completed
this morning.
The Result OF the Post Mortem
The most important evidence. OF
course, was that Of the physicians,
Drs. Merryman and Freek, who con-
Quoted the post norton. The first
named gave his evidence first. He
testified that the autopsy was held
on the remains in the Cordova GEM
etery in conjunction with Dr.. Frcek.
The body was carefully examined cX-
ternalN, the doctor said. A con-
fusion was discovered over the right
orbit, extending backward over the
right temple to the ear. About
three ounces of blood fluid escaped
upon incision. There was no frac-
ture of the skull. On opening the
body the lungs were found collapsed
and empty. The heart was normal
in size and the valves were in good
condition. but the brain was so de-
composed as to be useless for pur-
poses of examination.

Clutches.
The tissues of the troat and
neck were found to be bruised.
and the muscles of the larvnx and

evidence such as would be the result
of strangulation. A bruised ard

right side over the liver and lower

In conclusion the doctor gave it as
his opinion That the woman was

blood. The uterus was not i'm
