SOUR MILK CURE
IS THE LATEST
OVER IN LONDON

LONDON. March 5.-The illness
of a prominent society woman of
title emphasizes a new fad among
leaders of the smart set that little
has been spoken of in the news
papers Or society journals. 1t is
known as the sour milk cure
This cure is becoming highly pop
ular, although medical men agree
that there is some risk attending it.
1t was first advocated by Prof. Ellie
Metchnikoff of the Pasteur institute
of Paris, and has since been devel-
oped on scientific lines by other
medical men.
One of its chief dangers seems to
lie in the fact that the milk may be-
come contaminated in the process
of being 'soured," and the cure
should certainly never be taken eX-
cepting under medical instructions.

the small rural community, boarded
a Lidgerwood car. He sat down

out book. Closing the satchel, he
started to read with frown of

While in Spokane he got an order

DR.. Katherine M. H. Blackford is
a young woman at present creating
something like a sensation in New
York and Boston with her character
readings. She is phrenologist.
She claims to have turned the art
of reading character into an exact
science. She proposes to use this
to help people find themselves.
She says a young man might be
plugging along as bookkeeper and
making bad weather of it for the
single reason that he hadn't COR
rectly analysed his character before
starting in. If he had made such
an analysis. he would have known
that he was cut out by nature to be
a shoe clerk, and all the wasted
years as bOokkeeper might have
been spared him.
Miss Blackford has analysed the
characters of 1900 people, and she
can tell after a short examination
whether one was designed origin
ally to be bookkeeper, a shoe
clerk, or anything else.
She does this by looking into
ones eyes, by studying ones pro-
file, by observing ones gait, and a
hundred other things an amateur
character reader would never think
of.
DR. Blackford says she can tell
any young fellow what sort of a
girl he ought to marry. OF course,
the young fellow NAV marry any
girl he chooses; but if he backs DR..
Blackford's selection, jars in his
family will be scarce.
After studying 1900 people, DR..
Blackford divides the human spe-
cies by faces-the ingrowing face

(the common or Ratchet variety,
which she calls the cOncave face,
and the pimple face. called the
prune face by the vulgar, and by
Miss Blackford the convex face.
DR.. Blackford said:
Temperament is the alphabet of
character. Broadly speaking, there
are two types-the electric, all
blends, and the magnetic, brunets.
The former are vibratory; the lat
