Wonderful, indeed. is the RadIum Sys-
tenn of Treatment employed at the Radium
Institute in the Patterson block, at 1923

medium are causing all medical science
to stand aghast. People who have lost all
vitality, and are clinging on to life with
absolutely no hope for recovery, come
here as a last resort and are soon taking
a new lease on life, and go about the
streets as living beings rather than the
examples of living death they have been
portraying for so long a time.
Doctors have given some of them up,
have given them a prescribed length of
time to live, and have sent them home
to sit down and wait the coming of the
death angel. They have visited the insti-
tute against the wishes of others. have

OF so-called incurable cages are treated

Rheumatism, asthma, catarrh, gall

diseases of stomach and kidneys, nervous
diseases of men and women are easily
overcome by the Radium System of treat
ment. If you suffer from one of these
Affections call on the specialists, they

THE PHILIPPINE
CONSTbBULARY
BAND COMING

The Philippine Constabulary band,
one of the finest and largest bands in
the world, will arrive on the Buford
and give a band concert at the Opera
House Friday afternoon, February s.
This band was organized by Pres
ident elect Taft while he was Governor
General of the Philippines, and is on its
way to be the band of honor in the
inaugural parade of March next.
Taft is very proud of this band, as
he has right to be, for it took first
prize at the last st. Louis Exposition,
and Sousa, at that time, said that it
was the finest band he had ever heard.
No other band would do for Taft, and
he went to great lengths to have it
arrive in time for the parade.
There are eighty-four members in the
band, and they are all Filipinos, race
of natural musicians. The Symphony
Orchestra of sixty-one pieces, and com
posed of members of the band, viii
play at the Inaugural Ball.
Mr.. A. John Francis, manager of the
band, passed through on the Asia yes
terday to make arrangements for a
short tour, to take in San Francisco,
Los Angeles and New Orleans, on the
way to Washington. After the inaugu-
ration, the band viii make an extended
tour of the United States.

Oldtime negroes still tell tales of

old theater and to pursue those who
ventured upon the adjacent alley lead

some attributed the terrible fatality
which occurred within the theater

the removal of the medical museum
therefrom and after its occupation as
an annex to the War Department, as
it still is at this time. The second
tragedy within the building was a col
