INvAL1Ds WHO LIVE ON MILK
a Small Colony Persons ThfmbIe
Islands, OF the Connecti-
shore.

There is a colony of invalids en-
Thimb1e islands, of BramfOrd, Conn,
who have quit eating, and are partak-
ing of a new cure-Plain milk. 1t is
said to have effected two remarka BILE
cures=one a case which scientists
were unable to cope with. There are
nine in the colony, and each individual
declares himself greatly benefited by
the remedy, says 4 New Haven corre-
spondent of the Chica go Tribune.
AS far as can be learned, Philip H.
Robinson, register of the Catholic uni
of New Haven, is the discoverer of the
medical properties of milk. Mr.. Rob-
inson has suffered great many years
with a nervous disease which special
lists have been unable to benefit. Be-
cause, he says, he tired of every
thing, including eating, he determined
q little more than month ago to fore
go sold food and live milk. The sue.
cess of his eXPerime has more than
surprised him. In the month that he
has lived without solid food of any
kind he has gained eight pounds in
wei ht and his nervous disease has dis
appeared. He drinks ten quarts day,
! a glass at a time, at intervals of half
| an hour. He eclres that he Will never
eat again.
Another disciple of the milk cure is
| Camillus H. Oatman, professor a Will
| liza ms college. He suffe red with chr on
| ic kidney trouble, was induced by Prof.
| Robinson to try milk, and, having
| gained six pounds in weight, believes
| himself cured.

am speaking too, for the women one

girls, society bellies and all. I like tho
way they dress in New York. I like
the way they walk. 1 like their man
nerisms in public. The New York wom-
an dresses well. She may be shop
girl, but she wears neat, well-ht ting,
graceful costume. She stands well in
her shoes. And, by the way, this is one
thing that impressed me about New
York women more than any one thing.
Tt may be because the shoe is my
hobby I like good shoes, shoes that
set well on the feet, shoes that fit
nicely around the ankle shoes that de-
ve1op whatever of grace and beauty
there is in woman's foot-and, paren-
thetica1ly, there are no Trilby feet
among the women, for every mo theirs
daughter of them can slip her foot in to

from observat ton I would judge that
the women OF the me IrOPOl1S are ron c.
of the best there is in the She market.
/ They all wear shoes that look we'll and
they are not ashamed to show them.
They wear the short skirt, which falls
further than the shoe top. Tt gives
them a firmer footing, it were, and
they walk with more grace. Why, it is
really a treat to see til en- stride down

says 3. j. Hendricl, in Les1ie's Month
ly. Peters was a picturesque person
age in his way. but his fame rests en-
tirely upon the fact that he wrote a

while arousing the sympathy of the spec
