DRINK SOUR MILK.


Bishop Fallows has discovered
that Christian psychology is able to
prolong a mans life to $50 years.
The laws which he lays down are as
follows:
Drink sour milk or pure butter
milk two or three times a day,
Avoid too strenuous living. IN
Obey rigidly the laws OF hygiene
Love God and be square with your
fellowmen.
Drink some more sour milk.
The secret OF this is that under
modern conditions the arteries dc.
post on their inside calcareous sub
stances Just as tea kettles are found
with a lining OF carbonate OF lime.
Now a celebrated French physician
has discovered that sour milk is an
tntidote for this condition, because
" softens the calcareous dsposlt. All
one needs TO do. therefore. Is to drink
sour milk or butter milk two or three
times a day and he win outlive all

Socialists of the District of Columbia at
a meeting at 112 c street last evening de-
MED the statement of Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation of
Labor. that the socialist party is working

working jointly with the labor unions for
the betterment of the conditions of the
workingmen.

unions are doing good work, they are not
sufficient for the needs OF the working
men.

LONELY WIDOW TRIES TO DIE

age was recorded by the police AS
forty-one years. was removed TO the
Casualty Hospital from her room at the
house of Mrs. S NJ. Hines. o. Pennsyl-
Vanla avenue southeast YESTERDAY

ton.
She had inhaled Illuminating gas

This morning at the hospital it was
said she was in much improved con-
dition
Edward f. Goss. brother of Mrs
Miller. who lives at 124J X street
southeast, was notified of his sisters
condition.
1t is believed that Mrs Miller was
respondent over the death of her
mother and husband and subsequent
separation from her two children, hav-
ing found it necessary to place the lit
tie ones in an institution in order that
she might attend to her duties in d
department store.
Two weeks ago Mrs Miller rented a
room in the Pennsylvania avenue house.
she had shown no signs of a suicidal
purpose SO far as others in the house
had noticed.
Saturday night sshe returned home
o'otl lht USUAL IlOuT ana went 10 ner
room. Mrs. Hines detected the odor of
gas in the house yesterday morning
about D o'clock and traced it to the
room occupied blythe widow.
She aroused Mrs Miller and told her
the gas had been left partly turned on.
Mrs Miller expressed surprise, but re-
turned to her bed.
When the widow was called for
breakfa she made no response. In
VeSt1gation was made and 1t was found
that she was unconscious.
Mrs. Miller had closed the window.
drawn the curtain and placed skirt on
the floor at the door to prevent the
escape of gas into the hall. The gas
was flowing from the fixture at full
head.
NO time was lost in stopping the flow
of gas and getting the unconscious
woman from the room. A policeman
was summoned and the woman was
hurried to the hospital.
1t is said that Mrs Miller had shown
a fondness for two children of another
boarder. Friends believe the presence
of the children in the house caused her
to worry about being separated from
her own little ones.
