A Chicago Man Makes Money as q Profes-
sional Lemon Peoicr.
A man has earned the title of Lemon
Johp because he knows how to remove
tho peel from lemons and prepare them
for immediate use better, perhaps, than
any other man. He developed what he
regards as an art in West Side saloon.
He practices it now in as many saloons
in the down town districts as he can
visit between midnight and dawn. He
is short, thickset, unassuming person
age and as methodical as he Is deft with
his sharp little knife. He enters saloon
with mere nod Of recognition toward
the officiating dispenser, steps hastily
up to corner of bar, reaches out me-
chanically for his supplies and gets down

hands seems to b, in the power of q
magician and loses its hard, thick COW

ing that comprises the inner layer Of the
peel. and this covering, when John Is
at his best, never shows scratch or a
tear. The finished lemon looks as II 1t
had been subjected to some machine ap-
plication. This process is repeated until
the stock of lemons in the saloon esti-
mated as the probable supply for the
day has been exhausted. Then John
proceeds to the next patron.
Saloon keepers use large number Of
lemons. and ordinarily their preparation
for use is made by the barkeeper at the
time he may be mixing drink. Then
he has not the time nor the skill to re-
move the bitter peel, and il often spoils
the taste of an otherwise pleasant bever-
age. When John appeared on the scene
and offered to do this work at nominal
cost, first one and then another gave
him trial, until his business is flour

MUD BATHS.
How tho MushliIeo Mixture Is Prepared
For the Patients.

For the Patients.
"The hot springs of New Mexico"
says gentleman from Las Vogns, "are
on the Santa Fe railroad, six miles from
Las Vegas, and, they are situated in a
basin about 30 acres in extent SUR
rounded OH all sides by hills rising to
height Of from 800 to 400 feet. shielding
the place from wind and sand storms.
Tho mud baths which are famous for
their curative effects ore only to be had
In two places in the world-here and at
Carlsbad, Germany-nnd it has heen
shown that tho mud found at the hot
springs of New Mexico and which is
used In giving the baths Is Of the same
chemical composition rs that Of Carls-
bad. It is very interesting to note the
formation of this mud or peat. It is
formed by the vegetation which has
been washed down from the hills prob
ably century ago, and which, settling
among the rocks, has become decomposed
and formed into substance which is
practically carbon impregnated with
salts, magnesia, soda, lithia and various
other Ingredients.
"This peat is gathered from the rocks,
dried and put througha fine sieve in or
der to remove the silioatos, and after
this treatment it Is MS soft rs -four. II
ia then taken to the mixing room, where
&c Is put in large tubs and the water
from tho hot springs mixed with 1t un-
I'll IL is Of about the consistency Of mush.
The mud Is now ready for use, andsit is
taken into the bathing room, where the
patient ia placed In a tub and covered,
with the exception Of the head, and al
lowed to remain in the mud for from 10
to 35 minutes. The application of the
mud has an effect similar to mild
poultice and draws the impurities frSm
the body through the pores Of the skir
The patient is then removed from tho
bath, placed upon slab and submitted
to vigorous rubbing, the chemical
composition Of the mud being such that
It can be rubbed from the body with o
dry towel, leaving the flesh In clean
condition. A great many people come
to this place to take the mud bath treat
ment and some marvellous cures are
Effected. In ono instance remember to
have seen man who was all drawn up
with rheumatism, and after two weeks
of this treatment he had been relieved. |
The treatment is especially beneficial to |
persons afflicted with neuralgia, rheu- |
matism aud skin diseases. "-Denver |
