NEW FATTENING FAD.
sH,AaA ne9inen of Banana R>sQltl
~ Curing Nervous DysDeDslo
oaA Makes Flesh.

A lady who was recently so i'll Of
nervous dyspepsia as to be in bed, and
90 thin that she gave up all hope Of
ever getting fat, secured new doc
tor who used her for an experiment in
diet. He placedsher upon strict
regimen Of bananas, nothing else, saye
the New York Herald.
The result was marvellous. She grew
to really like them, when prepared
by baking and served with sugar and
cream, or cold, in the form of delicate
jelly. She also had banana fritters and
biscuit made Of banana -four. Daily
she grew more plump and rosy, and
now she is we'll, and expects to stay.
Bananas contain starch in its most
easily assimilated form. Homeopathic
doctors have for some years called this
tropical fruit unwholesome, but it 10
only indigestible when unripe. Al
most bananas arrive here and are
eaten in . green state, cooking is nee
essary to develop their valuable nutri.
tive qualities.
The delicious large red banana from
Cubs is the most acceptable one, but
now very scarce. The cheapness Of this
cure is one Of its charms, for almost all
treatment for weak nerves and poor
nutrition is very expensive. The hap
nv woman who tried the fad. is telling
all her thin friends about it and assur-
ing them that it really is great.

of the Beasts.

Hitherto it has been supposed that
polar bears could neither be trained
nor rendered docile. but now Mr..
Richard Sawade, . well-known Euro
pean tanner of animals and notable
authority on bears in particular,
shows clearly that such q supposi-
ton is entirely erroneous, says the
st. Louis Republic. -
He secured two polar bears some
time ago and At once determined to
train them. In this he succeeded be-
yond bis expectation-so well indeed
that these monstrous animals now
follow him a. obediently as dogs,
ready at his slightest nod TO per-
form any Of the little tricks which
they have learned from him. Their
education in this respect 10 no. yet
complete, but that they have learned
more than any of their ancestors 10
evident from the fact that 1T 4 wCrd
from their master they get up on
their hind legs and in this manner
follow him 1T = respectful distance
like lackeys a. he walks around the

Mr.. Sawsde claims that polar
bears are endowed with more intelli-
gence than is generally imagined and
that, II properly handled, they will
