Albuquerque Journai.)
 Muldoon's famous sanitarium Tor rich men and brain-workers in need of rest and exercise has recently been dragged up to added fame by the cure worked by Muldoon in the case of Sec retary of State Elihu Root, who was a patient at the sanitarium near White Plains, N. r.. just prior to his visit tn Mexico Muldoon and his sanitarium have been written aboul and talked about a great deal since the secretary of state took the treat ment prescribed by the eccentric re stqrer of health. Ebert Hubbard fin a recent issue of the Philistine. i'm mortalized Muldoon and his methods. and when it was announced that Sec. retary Root had been cured of ner- vous prostration after a brief stay there, the country began to look on Muldoon as wizard, as indeed, he seems to be from the account given of his treatment by Mir. Theodare K. Guth, of Boston, mine owner and brok. CT who was in Albuquerque last night For several hours on his way to in spect mining properties at Kelly. Mr. Guth was at the Muldoon sanitarium at the time Secretary Root was there.
 It will probably be interesting to the general public that in the course of the treatment Muldoin placidly in formed the secretary of state along with the twenty-three other patients the limit is twenty-four-that he was a 'pin-head"
 Tt is Muldoon's way to say just what he thinks, and not to let the oth- CT fellow say word" said Mir Guth last night. His methods for the re. storation of ovef-worked men are ab- solutely unique and they are success ful' Indeed no one could ask for no better testimonial to Muldoon's sue cess than in the person of the Boston man who is the picture of robust health.
 Secretary Root is one of the most interesting men it has ever been giyel. to me to meet" continued MT. Guth. He is broadly cultured, liberal and far-seeing, and is beyond question Ous of the greatest men this country has ever produced. But all ais great abiI- ity and high position did not help him with Muldoon. At Muldoon's it is obey orders, and if you don't out you go.
 We had been through 8 course of particularly had exercise one day when something went wrong with the class. Muldoon brooks no mistakes. If an error is made in the exercise it must be corrected and the whole class has to work until it ilas been righted. On this particular day somebody made bad slip.
 Secretary Root was in line with the rest of us. clad in gray sweater and woolen socks-mind you, woolen socks in August We'll, when the slip came. whatever it was, MuIdoon broke out.
 You're lot of pin-heads,' he said, and his remark didn't exclude any body
 After a while member of the class ventured to inquire just why we were pin-heads.
 Because, said Muldonn. if you weren't you wouldn't be here.
 'Muldoon didn't mean to be rude at all. He merely meant that man who hadn't sense enough to quit working before he wears himself out. hasn't the right kind of balance.
 His methods are absolutely unique. The victim, if he happens to be admit ted to the sanitarium, is immediately diyested of his store of clothes, hrs watch, money and everything else ex. cept what nature bestows He is then to purchase a gray sweater, regulation gymnasium trousers, wool en socks, heavy shoes, gymnasium shoes and a bath robe, and is sup piled with a bed and a supply of heavy bath towels. One is allowed 10 arise aT , O F=iJJT=r zITIT11 a1,1.af- ter to take a course in hall playing in the gymnasium. When he has be- come sufficiently heated he is led to a bench, where, with twenty-three other victims he is allowed to drink aboGt two quarts of boiling water, af- G1r which he is induced, in the pleas ing way Muldoon has, to strip and get under an ice cold showed bata. If he ventures to protest, Muldoon becomes more or less strenuous in his remarks, and if the victim still-conunues to pro test he is fired out After a frugal breakfast one is indulged in mile or so Of running. this being gradually ad- yanced to six or seven miles. as the treatment progresses. Aften luncheon and a horseback ride. Then comes As to going to bed.
 Tt is somewhat vigorous treatment but it seems to bring results in the man who stays with it. It is an every day custom to place bets on how long the latest conner wifi remain. The ay- craze is one out of four who can't or won't stand the pace. At Muldoon's every man does his own washing ana no patient is allowed to escape this little household duty. It is an inter esting sight to see twenty-four men busily engaged in washing bath tow CTS and other things and hanging them on the family clothes line.
 ''Tle man who goes to Muldoon's s expecting to get the comforts Of hoIis.s gets disappointed. 1 recall the case of a well known millionaire from New York who came up on his doctors ad- vice as the only thing to save him from sure death as the result of over work and nervous strain. He came, by his valet, who during his years of service had also becomy somewhat stout and short of breath. Muldoon took one look at the patient and another at the valet. Who's that man7. he aswed.
 That said the patient. is my valet
 It is said that Muidoon snorted. Valet he said What are you going to do with a valet here?'
 ~The millionaire explained that he never put on his stockings in his life,
