SOUR MILK CURE
IS THE LATEST
OVER IN LONDON

LONDON. March 5.-The illness
of 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.

His father is a physician and the

them to Calhoun. 1t is asserted
that some of the messages referred

SAN FRANCISCO, March s.
The scheme to consolidate the
cities bordering San Francisco into
one corporation was revived today,
following meeting of the mayors
of San Francisco, Oakland, Berke-
ley and Alameda on the platform
of the Auditorium at Alameda last
night. 1t had been stated pre-
viously that the conference was
called with the view of discussing
the question of municipal water
supply. 1t was believed that Mayor
Mccarthy of San Francisco might
have something to say regarding
the desirability of the trans-bay
cities joining with San Francisco
in its fight to retain it's water
rights in the Hetch Hetchy valley
in Yosemite national park. The
consolidation of the cities, how
ever, was the principal subject dis

A tall, gaunt, severe eyed man,
clad in ministerial garb and carry
ing a small satchel which suggested
the small rural community, boarded
a Lidgerwood car. He sat down
near the front of the car and slowly
and with dignified deliberation
opened the small satchel and took
out a book. Closing the satchel, he
started to read with frown of
erudite concentration.
A bible or work of theology or
philosophy, at least, thought his fell

year old child, Alice Bessie, the
baby stolen by the father, who, in
Jail at Spokane, told the police that
the baby was starving and freezing
to death in shack at the edge Of
the city.
BY a clever ruse, Mrs. Faulkner
got back her child, and thwarted
her husband, who has so many
times defeated her In the fight for
her custody. When Faulkner was
brought back to Seattle by a detec-
tive he did not bring the child.
While in Spokane he got an order
from the court restoring the Gus

where she and her husband for

girl was finally found by the Spo-

DR.. Katherine M. H. BlackfOrd Is
young woman at present creating
something like 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. II 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 short examination
whether one was designed origin.

clerk, or anything else.
She does this by looking into
ones eyes, by studying ones pro-
