Fasting as a Remedy,

J. C. Geitz, who tasted nineteen
days at his home, No. 1926 Euclid
avenue as told yesterday looking as
well fed as the chief cook in fash
ionable hotel. He made his first
trip out of doors since his fast, on
last Thursday, and has been taking
a daily constitutional ever since.
The presentation of his case in
The Republic has resulted in his re-
ceiving many requests for informa-
tion asto art of fasting as a remedy
for human ills, and he has respond
ed promptly to all of them. He has
evolved a theory from his expert
ence, and what he knows about the
manufacture of commercial pepsin,
which he believes explains the rem
edial properties of prolonged fast.
"Pepsin is manufactured from
the gastric juices of the stomach of
a starved hog, said Mr., Geltz to a
Republic reporter, ''They can't
make the pepsin unless the hog is in
state of absolute starvation and
on the verge Of collapse, My idea
is that when the stomach becomes
diseased its secretions are interter-
ed with, and eating merely increas-
es the trouble. By fasting, the
stomach is afforded a rest, the Sc
cretions begin again, and it begins
making nensin. n-Rennhlic.

There is a constant demand for
gasoline stoves. Why2 Because
the new gasoline stoves work per-
fectly, keep the kithen cool and
pleasant, and do away with the
bother Of having wood and kiudliug
around, But the chief reason is
on account of the cheapness Of
gasoline, as compared with other
fuel for cooking purposes
BY actual test it has been found
that four gallons Of gasoline will 20

INCREASE IN THE NAVY.
Secretary Long Will Ask for
Eighteen More Ships.

Advices from Washington state
that Secretary Long will recommend
to congress program for new
naval construction which will be in
accordance with the policy that has
been pursued for the PAST three
years. He will ask for three armor-
ed cruisers of about 1900 tons dis
placement; three protected cruisers
of about 5000 tons and dozen gun
boats of 900 tons, making eighteen
ships in all. The armored cruisers
will be enlarged Brooklyns, i'm
proved in many details, and will be
the biggest ships in the United
States navy. In the opinion of ex-
perts they will be equal to the bat
tleships of several naval powers in
strengthand will have great speed.
The protected cruisers will be of the
Olympia type, feet, powerful sea
boats with numerous batteries of
guns of medium caliber and rapid
firers, relying for protection against
gun fire entirely upon curved pro-
tective deck and coal bunkers.
The gunboats will be about the size
of the little Marietta and from their
light draft will be of great service

ports and in the Chinese rivers, as
well as in the new insular posses.
sions of the United States for police
duty in times of peace. The pro-
gram is made up without refer
ence to what has already been
authorized in the way of new ships;
in other words the ships will be adj
ditional to those authorized by the
last congress, although most Of the
latter have not been contracted for
because Of the armor limitation.

Detroit Doesn't Like 1t.

The upper peninsula business men.
says the Evening Journal, owe De-

our merchants, nearly year ago,
became interested in the possibilities
of enlarging Detroits S trade IN that
direction, and it seemed possible that
the agitation would bear fruit. 1t
seems to have done so, but it is Chi
cago that has her apron extended

time tables give Chicago quicker
communication with the copper min
ing region than ever before, and it
is doubtful if Detroit can ever
wholly regain what was almost her
exclusive field at one time. Chicago
and Milwaukee merchants have been
steadily coming into closer touch
with the upper peninsula in the last
fifteen years, and have now Il hold
on that trade that will not be
broken in this generation; but at
least Detroit is responsible Indirect

sentative of the West Publishing

investigation of the rumors Of
bribery in connection with the joint
resolution authorizing the purchase
of a law library for every county in
the state. Speaker Adams is
charged with having favored the
measure, which, it was claimed,
would at once place 800, 900 in the
hands of the West Publishing Co.,
and in the course of few years
would benefit the company several
hundred thousand dollars. as the
libraries were to be added to yearly,
and the books were to be published

Two more indictments were re-
turned Wednesday afternoon, but

DIR. John Amesse, of Grover, in
Houghton county, formerly assist
ant physician for DR., CIV. Orr, re-
ceived an appointment Monday as
as assistant surgeon in the United
States marine hospital corps, says
the Houghton Gazette. He was
summoned to report at headquarters
at Detroit as soon as possible, and
has already gone there. On arriv-
ing at Detroit he will be clad in the
naval uniform of his office. From
Detroit he expects to be stationed
at either New York or Boston. His

Paris. His salary will be from
$1,000 to $4,000 per annum, with
mileage at the government ex
pense. DR.. Amesse resigned his
position with DR.. G.. w. Orr Mon
day.
While attending the Dewey GEE
bration in New York recently, DR..
Amesse decided to take the examina-
tion for the naval service, the board
then being in session at the United

he had not the hospital experience

sessed, he volunteered without pre-
vious preparation to take the eX-
animation, which was not an easy
one, he discovered Out of a class
OF twenty six who took the examina-

was above 81 per cent, so per cent

Advance i'm Prices Of Paper.

During the last six months there
has been an unprecedented advance
in the price of paper, in many cases
the increase having reached lC0 per
cent. This is due in a measure to
the general advance in the price of
all manufactured articles, but prin-
cipally to the shortage of pulp in
the United States and Canada, a
fact which is becoming more ap-
parent every year. Don't kick,
then, if you find the printer has in
creased his price on some articles.
He is in the same boat with
the merchant, the lumber deaie
and many others in the retail trade.
He has simply got to increase his
price to meet the increase of the
manufacturer or suffer loss which
would very soon close the doors OF
his establishment were he to fur
nish the consumer at the prices rul-
ing year ago. Persons engaged
in getting out pulp wood in this
peninsula have but to compare
present prices with those they we're
paid year ago to form an opinion
of the price of the finished product.
