ABSOLUTE CURE.
Obtained by Means of X-Rays in Sc
rious Case of Cancer.

Baltimore Cor. Philadelphia North
American.)
One of Baltimore's leading physic-
ians, DIR. Howard Kelly, made the
positive statement today that Mrs.
House, wife of Rev. George House,
of Richmond, Va. had been cured of
skin cancer by the X-ray treatment.
'tMrs. House has been completely
rid of a cancer on the face.' DIR.
Kelly said. The credit belongs to
DR.. G. C. Gilchrist. and not to me.
Mrs. House came to me from Jamaica
suffering with a cancer that had de-
veloped while she was there. I turn
ed her over to DIR. Gilchrist, who has
had wonderful success with the X
rays in the treatment of that disease.
s.In a few weeks Mrs. House came
to see me again, completely cured
Her face was not even married by
scars. The same specialist recently
cured a physician by the same treat
ment.''
DIR. Gilchirst, beyond acknowledg-
ing that the woman had been his pa
tient, and that she had been cured by
the X-ray treatment, declined to dis
cuss the case. He declared, however
that the cure was absolute and per-
manent.

The Outlook Very Encouraging.

Cincinnati Commercial Tribune)
In the breaking Of records. at least
for decade. Wall street took anoth-
er departure during the week. But
this time the pendulum swung TO the
other extreme, and instead of pros
perity playing its part, dullness reign
ed. Upon one day the transactions
aggregated but 10000 shares, and
while there have been days when the
shares sold were less in number. It
was during dull days and seasons,
and not at time when fair de
gree of activity should prevail.
In regard to the lack of interest In
Wall street, it may be said that the
public has dropped out of the game,
wholly and entirely. That is the ex-
PLANTATION. Under such conditions
professional manipulation signifies
nothing, for a game in which brokers
alone are interested can not long con-
tinue, because there is no income. 1t
is all outgo.
There may be some other causes
contributing to the dullness, such as
the war in the far East and the lack
of inclination on the part of fnan-
ciers to encourage the spirit Of spec
ulation. just now they fear serious
depression of stocks below the pres
emf level, as it would mean aweakness
of millions of securities held as col
lateral for loans. The risk is too
great, and the banks display wisdom
in Withholding encouragement to
spectators.
Another ugly feature is the dispo-
sition shown by some Of the greatest
trunk lines to borrow upon every oc-
casion, and with fiimsy excuses. In
this way millions have been withd-
rawn from the market. and the calls
are not vet at an end. It goes to
show the decrease in the earning pow
ers Of the big transportation COM
panics, and, indirectly, slackenin@ in
general business.
One of the bright features of a bad

iron and steel, accompanied by slight
advances in prices of various lines.
Inasmuch as the advances as a rule
have been in pig iron, the basis of the
whole trade, the situation is encour-
aging. Evidently the demand is
prompted by a disposition on the
part of consumers to buy somewhat
more freely, and it is said that the
inquiries for structural steel are now
more frequent than for months.
Crop reports are bit better than
for several weeks. 1t is too early to
place dependence on reports of this
nature, but inasmuch as conditions
continue good, the situation is helped
in indirect ways. In general manu-
featuring the usual activity prevails,
but, of course, II is not comparable
with the spring trade of other years.

Now that vero has served three
months in jail for crime that he did
not commit, his release opens up to
him only the cheerless prospect of be-
ing absolutely penniIess. for year or
two to come. He has seen long service

amounts to but s14 month. His bill
for legal services Is said to aggregate
$3.50, and he has assured his comrades

cordance. With Their Gov
crnment of Adoption

New York. Feb. 22.--In sermon
on "The Jew as Patriot" the Rev.
Dr. Joseph sIlverman, OF the Temple
Kmu-El. has branded as false reports
that the Jews Of the United States are
raising fund TO purchase warshir
for Japan.
7 am astonished and paIned," he
said, that any one could believe such
statement to be true. There Is no
movement on foot among American
Jews to do anything OF the kind. We're
not living In any political sense az
Jews In this country. we shall not
side with or against Russia az Jews.
We follow the policy Of the American
government and II that policy IL de-
fined we Jewish Americans viii side
with our government to befriend Russia
or japan. as the case may be. The
temporary persecution, massacre or
riot OF the disorderiy element among
Russians VIII not induce the American
Jews to take sides one way or the other
In q struggle that is international and
seems about TO become even broader.
"rhe worst feature OF anti Semitism
Is the charge often made that the Jew
ls a stranger In the country in which
he resides. that he Is not an integral
part Of the people and cannot be
true patriot.
"This charge has often been refuted,
but stilI requires an answer because
there are thousands and thousands
who win not listen to the truth and
who still In different countries relter-
ate the charge with vehement en-
phasis.
"The fact is that the Jew Is a pat
riot by nature, training and by virtue
OF his religion. The Jew Is 50 con-
stAtuted that he becomes the best pat
riot OF all nations, and there is sufH-
cient evidence In history to bear out |
this statement"

reminds me of a very funny little joke
that one of my friends played me
when l was in the receiving tellers cage.
He brought in a thick package of bills
to deposit and said he supposed it would
take me week or two to count them.
Just like a woman, I ran over the bills
hurriedly, and that evening my brother
in-law came to me with a very grave face
and said: Somebody has taken in a fifty
dollar Confederate BILL I remembered it
like a flash and told him l had done it
and told who gave 1t to me and described
the package 1t was In, and all the time
| WAS busy thinking up some good excuse
At length l remembered that my father
was in the Confederacy, and told my
brother-ln-law that any money that was
good enough for my father to fight for
was good enough for me to take in, so

1t has always been my impression that
bank presidents owned lots of other things

about it.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Defense of Jefferson Davis.

To the Editor of the Age Herald:
1t is not a strange thing that the unin-
formed sometimes, are unjust to those
who have lived useful and honorable
lives, but better things are expected from
persons whose opportunities have been
ample to obtain the truth.
Jefferson Davis has been misunderstood
and much abused. AS a young officer
in the federal army none rendered more
valuable service. All are fam.-.ar with
his record in the Mexican war.
AS secretary of war was there any more
faithful or better fitted for the work?
Could any man under the circumstances
have left the senate chamber with more
dignity and composure? He was thought
full, charitable, and honest. He abhorred
the Idea of depressing the weak and help
less, and yet to him, a man so humane,
and almost weakly merciful has been
attributed the wllful torture of his fell
lows. 1t IS a cruel thing to perpetuate
falsehoods.
l have no patience with any one who
would abuse Mr. Lincoln. l believe he
was a good man. l respect the memory
of General Grant--he was desperate on
the field of battle but kind and gentle to
the defeated
We have all suffered but let US be rea.
sonable. Forty years should heal all
wounds. Bitterness will never induce har-
mony. neither will 1t make us that peace
full and great country that we can and
should be. Nothing but right will bring
to us the approval of all good citizens
and the admiration of all liberty loving
people.
OF all men to encourage the consuma-
tion of these results Is our president,
and I trust that we may soon have one
who will give his best efforts In i'm
pressing upon the minds and hearts of
the American people that all are loyal,
and all are patriots.
