An Interesting Place.

Washington has many institutions, pub
lie and private, with ample facilities for
the treatment of various diseases, each
with more or less circumscribed field.
But they are hospitals in name and ap-
pointments, and to most people the
very idea of going to a hospital is re-
pugnant
DR.. CLEMENS offers to them the ac-
commodations and surroundings of an ele-
CANT private home, where they will not be
constantly reminded of disease and suf-
fering. Washingtonians who knew the
late Justice Strong, of the Supreme Court,
Will remember his handsome residence in
II Street northwest. The spacious rooms,
high ceilings, wide halls. and the great
contrast they offer to everything pertain
ing to hospital service. Ii is still what it
always has been, a private residence, with
this difference: 1t is possible for lin
tied number of desirable patients to re-
main in the house under the personal at
tention of DR.. Clemens, If they are unable
to make frequent trips from their resi-
dences to his Office or merely desire great
er care and attention than they may re-
ceive at their homes. This class of pa
tients do not usually go to hospitals from
their own disinclination, and the fact that
hospitals make no provision for attending
enough to be abed, and often one of their
greatest needs is to kill time pleasantly,
TO Danish ennui, that terror to those who
suffer from nervous troubles, and those
who are in anywise helpless. The success
full treatment of disease does not depend
entirely upon instruments, appliances,
drugs, and technical skill. All these have
their necessary functions and the equip
ment of DIR. CLEMENS offices is COM
plete. Yet there Is more to be done, and
unless it Is given the attention 1t deserves
failure is often the result. Worry aggra-
Yates any disease or disorder, organic or
functional, and they are often the founda-
ton OF disease. To forget ones troubles
or sufferings is often better than dose Of
medicine. DIR. CLEMENS has selected his
assistants with view to their cheerful
dispositions, as well as their ability, and
has been particularly fortunate in secur-
ing those possessing both qualities. Pa
tients therefore are not waited upon in a
perfunctory way as mechanical figure
might do. They very quickly realize the
sympathy and personal interest which ev-
their burden of suffering is taken from
cry one around them feels and part of
them.

hard-hit liners, and once Mccormick went
back of first base and. with one hand,
scooped up bounder and robbed Padden
OF a hit. Slagle went into the robbery
business on his own hook in the fourth,
and. by a magnificent running catch, pre-
vented Wolverton from making a triple.
The sensations OF the game were furnished
in the daring base running of Green and
Lange. who perpetrated thefts while Nc
Guire and Dinneen were standing holding
the ball.
Chicago made all five runs in the sixth.
Ryan started the inning with a line drive
which o'Brien reached after a hard run

and stole Lange's hot bounder passed

neen and Cassidy both covered first and
let Everitt's bunt roll safe. DeMont hit
hard to Bonner, forcing Everitt but in his

money and scored on Donahues fiuke hit

oUTFIELDER BARRY SIGNED.
Wagner Continues to Strengthen
the Washington Tenn.

President Wagner is determined to
strengthen the Senators wherever possible
and has recently purchased several new
players TO fill up the weak holes in the
in and outfeld. He has carefully select
ed men who can bat as well as field. The
latest player TO be added to the Washing
ton payroll is 0utfelder Barry, who was
yesterday purchased by President Wagner
Barry will probably do service in the SEN
ator's left field, and Mercer may again
take his regular turn in the box.
Barry was obtained from the Montreal
club. of the Eastern League, and is con-
sidered one OF the hardest hitters and
leetest fielders that organization possess
ed. Last season he participated in 112
games, was at bat 42S times, and made
i40 safe hits, his average being 1927. His
work this year, If anything, has been an
Improvement over last season, and he
ranked as one of the stars of the league. In
1898 he played in Is games at first base
for the Montreal team and his average was
.96S. In rs games in the outfield his aver
age was 1892. Barry will join the Senators
at Pittsburg.

a game to St Louis this afternoon. The
game was hot one from the start, con-
siderable ill-feeling having been engen-
dered by o'Day's rulings on Friday. In
the second half of the first inning Kelley

strike. When the Brooklyns had been re-
tired Kelley resumed his abuse, an officer
was called and the left fielder was elected
from the grounds, Jones playing his posi-

Cambridge, May 27.-Princeton simply

pitched a magnificent game. having phe-
nomenal control and keeping the ball just
where the Harvard batters could not get
at it. Kafr supported him in grand style,
and gave the finest exhibition of backstop-
ping seen here this season. Fitz, too, had
remarkably good control, but Princeton
had little difficulty in finding him. Suter
gave the best exhibition of batting, but
Harrison was close second with three
welI-placed singles. Reid was the only
Harvard man TO do any real hitting. There

Diseases Treated.

NERVOUS SYSTEM: Under this head
can be mentioned all of the functional
disorders, such as Nervous Exhaustion or
Prostration, and the many accompanying
ailments due to the condition of the nerves,
whether due to overwork, worry dissipa-
tion in social pleasures or to the effects
of some exhaustiDg disease.
Other nervous diseases and disorders
which exist as a cause, effect, or merely
complication of nervous exhaustion, are
Headaches, Insomnia, Nervous Dyspepsia,
Neuralgias, Hysteria, 1mpotency, Frigid-
ity tabsence of sexual sensation in male
OF female) and other sexual variations or
imperfectons. y
DIGESTIVE SYSTEM: All troubles
coming under this ihead are treated by
every known method running from simple
dieting to the use OF medicines and other
therapeutic measures, including massage,
and the abdominal exercise similar to the
"Danse du Ventre, y which has cured some
very obstinate cases of chronic constipa-
ton.
URIC ACID DISEASES: These should
be classed as Digestive at first, but once
the uric acid is formed, the whole body
may be affected. Rheumatism, Gout, and
kindred troubles are caused by it. The va
rious stages from the acute attack to the
permanently anehylosed Joints are so sue
cessfully treated by the New Hot Air
Process, heretofore described. that they
must henceforth De taken from the in
durable list.
In the treatment of these diseases, and
in addition to the ordinary methods, such
as the administration of medicines, cleo
tricity in its various FORMS Static Gal
vanic, Faradic, and the X-ray, is used.
Everybody knows that the electric current
can be made to take the place of the nerve
current in contracting muscles, etc. The
natural deduction from this is that e.ec-
tricity, intelligently and systematically
used is of the greatest value in any case
in which there is deficient supply of
nerve force.

AN EASY VICTORY FOR YALE.
The Naval Cadets HnndiIy Beaten in
the Boat Race,

Annapolis. Nd, May 27.-In a two-mile
straightaway race on Severn River this
afternoon, the Yale eight-oared crew de-
feated the naval cadets by four lengths.
Yale's time was 1928; the cadets, 1879.
After having postponed the race from e:30
to $50 on account of rough water. the
officials agreed to have the race take place
beyond the railroad bridge, near the head
of Severn River, where quiet water was
found. From the start it was apparent
that Yale was the winner. With a long,
steady stroke, about thirty four to the min
ute, she went Immediately ahead, continu-
ing the lead throughout. Spectators on
steamers that followed the race state the
Yale crew kept up the thirty-four stroke
until near the finish and then rowed thirty
five. The cadets handled their oars ner-
vously, starting at the quick pace of thirty
six stroke, which they were unable to keep
up to the finish. The Yale crew remained
in Annapolis tonight as guests of the
cadets, and will leave tomorrow for home.
