How IL Is Done
Especial Correspondence

Rochester, N Y, Feb AT last
after years of study and endless scien-
ti1c experiments for increasing the
height of those who are so unfortunate
as 10 be short in stature, a Rochester
scientist has solved the problem, and
given 10 the world a greater gift than
Edison's electric light; Marconis wire
less teIegraphy, or the Bell telephone:
Tor what can be more incOnVenient or
productive of more discomfort. than to
be short The short man or woman is
always at disadvantage: in business
society, on the stage or rOstrum The
great orators, statesmen, generals,
presidents; have rarely been short men.
Not that the short men are not just a
brainy, but their stature is against
them. The great society leaders are not
snort women. 1t seems there is no
longer any excuse for any ones being
short, if you Will just follow out Mr.. X
Leo Minges' discovery for increasing
the height. Mr.. Minges himself once
knew the disadvantage, the trials and
tribulatiOnS that beset the path of
the short man. He determined to grow
tall, He tried everything he could think
of, and everything anybody could sug-
Sest- He delved deep into the study of
anatomy and physiology. Finally.
when he was almost ready TO give up
in despair he discovered one of Ma
lures marvellous Secret Iaws-a law
by which the human, body can actual
ly be made to grow. Mr.. Minges tried
his new discovery on himself; il worked
like charm, and today Mr.. Minges is
six feet two inches tall, and as straight
as an arrow. He next solicited others
to try his system. and behold their
height was also increased. He adver-
tiSed far and wide 10 get persons ex-
tremely short in stature TO try his sys-

possible. The results were simply as

the New York Herald shows what can

ture be increased beyond the present
number OF units.
The Philippines.
As to the Philippines the president
says that during the last year the Phil
ippine islands have been slowl y re-
covering from the series OF disasters
which since American occupation have
greatly reduced the amount OF agri-
cultural products below what was pro-
duced in Spanish times. THE war,
the rinderpest, the locusts, the
drought and the cholera have been
united as causes to prevent return
of the prosperity much needed in the
islands. Tranquility has existed dur
ing the past year throughout the arch
ipelago except in the province OF Ca
vite, the province of Batangas and
the province of Samar and in the is
land of Jolo among the Moros."
The Panama Canal.
AS to the Panama canal he says in
part:
The American people are pledged
to the speediest possible construction
OF a canal adequate to a1eet the de-
mands which the commerce of the
world will make upon it, and I appeal
most earnestly to the congress to aid
in the fulfillment Of the pledge.
Gratifying progress has been made
during the past year and especially
during the past four months. The
greater part of the necessary prel1n1l-
nary work has been done. Actual
work of excavation could be begun
oralv on limited scale till the canal
zone was made a healthful place to
live in and to work in. The isthmus
had to be sanitated first. This task
has been so thoroughly accomplished
that yellow fever has been virtually
extirpated from the isthmus and gen.
eral health conditions vastly improv-
