THE STARVATION CURE.

From the Detroit Free Press:
AS a scientific cure for popular in
fantile disorders Is the starvation
theory advanced by DR.. Karl Levin,
a distinguished Berlin specialist In chill
dren's diseases. He asserts that
motherly sympathy is often wrongly
directed in gratifying their babies
longing for the bottle, declaring that in
most cases the child would, be benefited
by going hungry Close observations
have led DR.. Lewis to believe that ill.,
fants require liquid but not food after
weakening illnesses Of the stomach &C.
cornpanied with vomiting and diarrhea
Writing about his discovery DR.. Levin
said: "When babies cry and clutch
the nursing bottle their physical wants
are best served by giving them plain
water to drink. They should be al
lowed to 90 hungry, but unthirsty. I
regard a period of starvation as abso-
lutely necessary for the first twelve or
twenty-four hours. The idea is not
cruel as it might seem, inasmuch az
grown pearsons under similar circum-
stances often feel no necessity for food
for many hours. A valuable ally to
this hunger cure is such treatment as
causes the blood from the regions of
the stomach to rush toward the skin.
This is best achieved by cold bath
and hard rubbing afterward or by a
hot Observation-Disclosures the condition OF

GRAND ARMY TWINS.
From the. Detroit FREE Press, ::

From the. Detroit Free Press, 49,. ~
Jerome Tyler RttGher and Napoleon
Harrison Richter are known through
out Indiana as NY" and "Po," the G.
A. r. twins. and they are probably the
only living twin members of that great
body Of surviving heroes. In October,
1861. they enlisted in Company .,
Fifty-seventh Indiana infantry, as
chief musicians. and they went through
the war side by side. The town Of
Williamsburg, Ind, where they were
born In 1910, was founded by their
father, and their mother was the first
white woman born in Green's Fork.
The likeness of the twins Is remark
able and extends to their character.
habits and tastes. Their tone of voice
and manner Of speech are so nearly
the same that when talking unseen
their most intimate friends cannot tell
which of the two is talking. The
great resemblance between the twins
has led to many amusing incidents.
Once in Richmond, Ind, Napoleon was
shaved by negro. Shortly after leav-
ing the shop his brother Tyler entered,
and the negro barber was SO stricken
with superstitious fear at the supposed
spectacle of beard developing a
weeks growth in ten minutes that he
dropped his razor and fed.

where he acts as the poor mans horse.
BY ones, by twos, by threes and by

countries to the lot of horse or donkey.

ambitious creature. He is not content
to do naught but slave. He has, in
fact, aspired to the law with such
good effect that he has become one of

too, that crime in that particular dis

From the Detroit Free Press:
Many women Of fashion have an

scores Of young women buy 1t for this

difficult to cast off, for camphor pro-

WI DID NOT ASK "WHY?"

From the Philadelphia North Ameri-
can: :
WI Ting-fang, the Chinese minister,
was confronted for time the other
night with the alternative of missing
the New England dinner, which he had
come from Washington to attend, or
appearing in a woman's decollete silk
evening gown instead of his own flow
ing silk robe.
AS a consequence, the guests in the
section Of the hotel in which WI was
domiciled heard a choice and pic
turesque assortment Of words in both
Chinese and English volleying on the

Minister WI was angry.

was given to the house valet to be
pressed, with strict orders to have It

The critical moment arrived. The
robe was shaken out by WI. Then he
tried to put it on. Something was
wrong. He was caught and almost
strangled in a whirl Of ruffles and chit

When disentangled he examined the
garment. 1t was a Woman's. That
was sure. 1t was short at the top and
long in the skirt. The minister had
seen women wear gowns cut just go.
Ordinarily he would have welcomed a
chance to examine one Of these crea-
tions, for he is always an eager seeker
after knowledge. But time was press
ing. There was small opportunity to
ask why. So he rang bells until the

The chief executives action created a
very unfavorable stir all over the

the floor Of the house. While it was
being discussed, Boutelle made a mas
terful address on the subject. He made
the eagle scream as she had never
screamed before. The bloody shirt was
waved frantically. His oratorical ef-
forts were superb; his perorations were
such that all during his address he was
frequently Interrupted with applause.
He reminded his hearers Of al; the no.
