Joseph was able to tell how many fingers he held up, and he counted the pictures on the walls and described the shape of their frames.
 ''That is the work of Jansen" said Josephs father enthusiastically. "We owe him very much. He gives the boy about one treatment a week. All that he does is to touch the eyes with the tips of his fingers and place his hands on the boys head. He began the treatment about thirty weeks ago.
 Jansen does not charge anything" said the father. "He says he is glad to be able to do my boy good. But, of course, give him little something, for he Is very poor. He says that he has been endowed with special powers of magnetism. He is diffident little fellow and has no wish to get into the papers,"
 Among those who say they have been benefited by Jansen's fingers are Gustave Bauman, upholster, of No. S19 Ninth avenue, who for years has been afflicted with atrophy of the optic nerve; Frank Dick, of No. 131 Huron street, Greenpoint, and the newsman at Forty-fifth street and Eighth avenue. The latter was only treat ed once. He said that the effect frightened him. He felt something like an electric fluid tingling all over his body.

Good Advice to
Guests at House Parties

Lately we talked about the hostess re- responsibilities towards guests staying in her house, says an exchange, so now we must turn our attention to the guests themselves, ana see what they must do, and not do, to earn the reputation of being ideal visi- tors. In the first place, they must not be fuSsy and exacting; they must not expect The hostess be entertaining them all day, or even to be sitting with them all day. In large house parties the guests often see nothing of their hostess till lunch time; the regime is much like that of @ friendly hotel party, where everybody entertains themselves and each other
 The hostess Is supposed to be writing let ters, managing her household, or otherwise employing herself according to her own sweet will and fancy, and she concludes that her guests are also doing what they wish to do. In smaller establishments, of course, the hostess is earlier in evidence but even then the guest must not expect too much of her attention in the morning, or feel neglected if she does not receive it. A guest who sits about idly, looking as Enough she expected to be amused at all times and seasons, Is a far more trouble some creature to the hostess than the wo- man who shows that she is busy with her fancy work, amused with a book or en- gagged in letter writing. She must always be ready to put these aside as soon as the hostess seems to have leisure to sit and talk with her, but some such personal employ ment will enable the hostess to leave her alone with easy mind.
 One very popular amusement for country house visitors may be pointed out to my readers, and they can draw their own con- clusions about its desrability. This amuse- ment is Irritation. More engagements have been broken, more married happiness un- dermined, by the flirtations with which both men and women enliven the dullness of visit than we know of This ''philan- dering" is certainly most agreeable relief to wet afternoon, over the teacups in a firelit drawing room, or to brighten the in- tervals between the dances after dinner; but if both men and women are determined to be ideal guests they will not in justice to their hostess, allow the Irritation to go far enough to cause her any uneasiness at

the time, or remorse afterwards that her hospitality brought together people who, through idleness and thoughtlessness, could cause, perhaps, considerable un- unhappness to all connected with them. A good guests duty is to take no small est advantage of the hostess name and roof, and must be careful not to render her conspicuous in the smallest degree. happiness to all connected with them. And here I may say something about a failing that many estimable people possess.
 Though in their own homes and neigh borhood they may be deeorous and pre- else in the extreme, because we are so well known here," they think a visit to new nefghborhood gives opportunity to throw off all restraint, and be as free and easy' as their state of not being known urges them to be. But this is hardly fair to the hostess, who is naturally recog- nized in her own vicinity, and will per haps be unfavorably judged by that old dictum By your friends are ye known.
 A guest whose term of visit has been mentioned in her letter of invitation must be careful, about a week before it's ex- piration, to mention casually the fact of her impending departure, so that the hos- tess may know when the room will actual ly be vacant for other guests. Only under very exceptional circumstances must the guest be induced to stay beyond the limit she was invited for, and If she do so she must be sure not to stay longer than day or two more There is nothing easier than to outstay welcome and it is wiser to go leaving a feeling of regret behind you for your departure than to stay until host and hostess have become bored by your presence.

Rendition of the 0ratorio
 !Judas Maccahaeus n

The impression has gone about in musical carcles that there will be two renditions of the oratorio Judas Maccabaeus" The im- pression is only an impression, having no foundation in truth. It is to be hoped that none will lose the opportunity of hearing the oratorio result of this impression. The music is probably the most heroic of all the great oratorios of Handel, the sub- ject easily yielding to the mighty genius of the master. Again, there is a satisfaction not to be unnoticed in the fact that one master of the oratorio came to use our own English, giving us what few of the great oratorios have done, the original Even Germany may envy us this boon; as her own son has to be translated to be ap- preciated.
 Handel gave us in all about twenty ora torios, contributing Deborah" the first English oratorio. However, the trio upon which rests his great fame are "The Messiah" Judas Maccabaeus" and "Isreal in Egypt" This latter is adjudged by musical critics the greatest triumph in choral composition of all the masters work. It is to be hoped that we may yet have this grand climax of oratorios to lis ten to. With "The Messiah and "Macca- baeus" as antecedents we may well hope for the future.

From the New York World.

From the New York World.
 Christian Jansen is only a poor drug clerk who was recently discharged from $5 week position because he told his employer with too much frankness that he did not believe in the efficacy of drugs. The laying on of hands was the only proper way to cure.
 In Denmark, where he came from, he was sent to prison for exercising what his friends say is a marvellous gift. So, seven years ago he came to this country and found a job in a small drug store. But he could not keep his hands on pestle and mortar and several times he has exercised his gift on persons in this city, all of whom are certain that he possesses won- derful power.
 Blindness is Jansen's speciality. He makes no claim to supernatural powers, but says that if he touches eyes becoming blind or newly become so he can benefit them.
 Joseph Drier, lad of Ii, living at No. 337 West Forty-third street, has been al- most blind from birth. At months he lost his sight entirely, film glowing be- fore his eyes. He has been treated by sev- eral specialists, his father says, but in vain.
