ENORMOUS SPRING TRADE
An Optimistic Feeling Pervades
Business Circles and Heavy Build
ing Operations Anticipated.

New YOrk.-Bradstreet' regular
weekly review says:
Favorable features still largely pre-
dominate. Country buyers are more in
evidence than at any previous time this
year and have bought literally Win
ter wheat crop reports are as good as
ever, and the probability that a gen
eral coal strike may be avoided after
all lends strength to industry Of all
kinds. 1t is true there is rather more
conservatism displayed by buyers for
the more distant future and prices Of
some commodities are being shaded,
but it is apparently regarded as certain
that an enormous spring business will
be done, that building will approximate,
if not surpass last years huge totals,
and that crop and trade developments
of the future will take care of next
seasons trade.

MEDICAL BREVITIES.

Women are to be admitted to BE-
doctors of medicine by the University
OF Prague, which, however, refuses TO-
admit them as doctors Of philosophy.
At recent session OF the Paris
Academy of Medicine, M. Chauffard
stated that in many patients treated
by A-rays for cancer Of the tongue, the
growth had become rapidly dissem-
seminated. The academy adopted his
conclusion that medical men alone.
should have the right to use X-rayx
for treatment
One Of the most important causes Of
disease, according to Prof Macfaydyen
Of London Is the inhalation of parti-
cles Of dust in the streets Of cities. He
holds that the dust not only often con-
tains the germs of disease, but that
1t has a deletarious effect upon the,
respiratory organs, through mechan-
ical irritation.
DR.. Klein, F. r. s., has communicate.
ed to the British government the dis
covery that dried tissues of animals
dead of plague, In which the bacilf
originally present have been killed by
desiccation, nevertheless retain tho.
power of communicating the disease
to animals into which they are in
jected, and which die with all the
symptoms of plague, but without
themselves containing any bacilli.

DOWIE'SDOCTRlNES DuN'TGO

go UphO1ds the City Health De-
partment in Interfering.

Chicago.-The municipal health
department is justified in forcibly in
terfering in cases of extreme sickness,
where the services of a physician are
refused, according to an opinion rem
dered by Corporation Counsel Lewis.
Since the advent of John Alexander
Dowie in Chicago, many cases of this
nature have been brought to the no.
tice OF the city authorities, but no def
mite action has even been taken in such
cases until now, when prayer instead
of medicine was being used in the
treatment of Mrs. Ella Turner, who is
a. believer in Dowie's teachings. The
woman had been suffering for over "a
hours, and her life was in imminent
peril, as her condition called for an i'm
mediate operation. Instead of calling
physician the woman's husband and
relatives appealed to Overseer Voliva
OF Zion City, who sent one of his dea-
cons to pray for her. The woman's
pain increased so much that her cries
attracted the attention of a neighbor
who reported the case to the police The
police at once placed the mat
ter in the hands of the health de-
partmcnt, and was referred to Corpora:
tion Counsel Lewis, who expressed the
opinion that the health department was
justified in interfering in such extreme
cases. A physician was at once sent to
attend the woman and her suffering was
StOpped.

A PERFECT HAND.
How Its Appearance Became Fa-
miliar to the Public.

The story Of how probably the most
perfect feminine hand in America be-
came known to the people is rather
interesting.
| AS the story goes the possessor Of
the hand was with some friends in a
photographers one day and while talk
ing, held up piece of candy. The
pose of the hand with its perfect con-
tour and faultless shape attracted the
attention of the artist, who proposed
to photograph it. The result was a
beautiful picture kept in the family
until one day, after reading a letter
from someone inQuiring as to who
wrote the Postum and Grape-Nuts ad-
vertisements, Mr.. Post said to his
wife: I'VE receive so many in
Quiries of this kind, that it is
evident some people are curious to
know, suppose we let the advertising
department have that picture of your
hand to print and name it A Helping
Hand" (Mrs. Post has assisted him
in preparation of some OF the most fa-
nous advertisements.)
the publicity, but with an agreement
that no name would accompany the
picture, its use was granted.
The case was presented in the light
Of extending a welcoming hand to the
friends of Postum and G. Nuts, so
the picture appeared on the back cov-
srs OF many of the January and Feb
ruary magazines and became known to
millions of people.
Many artists have commented upon
1t as probably the most perfect hand
In the world.
The advertising dept. of the Postum
Co. did not seem able to resist the
temptation TO enlist the curiosity of the
public. by refraining from giving the
lame of the owner when the picture
appeared, but stated that the name
would be given later In one of the news
paper announcements, thus seeking to
induce. the readers to look for and read
the forthcoming advertisements to learn
the name q the owner.
This combination of art and COM
merce and the multitude of inquiries
furnishes an excellent illustration OF the
interest the public takes In the personal
and family life of large manufacturers
whose names become household words
through extensive and continuous an
nouncements In newspapers and period
lcals.
