circular issued by DR.. M. J. Rode
mund of this city, who has written a
book on what is designated in the
headlines of his circular.
DR.. Roderund makes him own pecu-
liar explanation of the causes of yell
low fever, smallpox, consumption an
several other dreadful diseases. N
his book he sets forth that the present
system of diagnosing diseases and cur

five prizes of $1,000 each, and $40 a
day for the time it takes to demon
strate that the law and principles laid
down are wrong. In supplementary
circular Dr. Rodermund says in part:
my experience and observation dur
ing the past ten years has taught me
that anything that is presented to
these dictators, or so-called medical
authorities, is usually judged by their
self-assumed standards, and if the
thing offered for investigation
does not adjust itself to
their rules and laws, that
they have themselves formulated, It
is rejected without further ceremony
and soon treated with ridicule and
contempt.
Nearly everything doomed as SCI

turns out to be fraud and humbug.

craving for the truth.
Therefore I bind myself, both le-
gally and morally. to the position
taken in the book, and also agree TO
buy back the books and burn them mp
if beaten, besides paying the five
prizes of $1,000 and $40 day for the
time it takes to win them" The
prizes are to be given for proof Of the
following: "That there is no such
thing as a disease being contagious.
That vaccination is absolutely wrong
and murderous. That quarantine is
wrong and dangerous. That germs
are not the cause of disease as
claimed by the profession. That con
sumption of the lungs is incurable,
and that prevention is the only rem

"A Poor Relation"

"A Poor Relation" Sol Smith Russell s great play. which will be seen at the Jefferson Theatre next Thursday, matt nee and night, will easily be one of the welcome events of the present theatrical season and is only made possible by the continued illness of the comedian himself which has necessitated his retirement from the stage for the rest of .ae season and prevents his playing his regular en- agreements. His manager, Fred C. Ber- ger, has engaged MT. Frederick Summer field, an actor whose humor, 1t is said, is of the unctuous order, and whose pathos Is of the quiet, undemonstrative character that always challenges atten- tion, and who above everything was se- lected by MT. Russell himself as his suc- cessor. Mir. Berger has also retained the entire supporting company and has ar ranged a tour of cities that perhaps would never have had an opportunity of seeing this clean. high-minded play that in the past twelve years has served to firmly land MT. Russell as ~eeply in the hearts of the play-goers O. the country as Rip Van Wrinkle" mas Joe Jefferson. William Dean Howells has written of "A Poor Relation that it is a poem in laughter and tears"
