ROBUST CASE OF LIMBURGER
A Few Whiffs Enough 10 start a
Stampede Among Train
Passengers.

A Bulgarian family Of immigrants and a
tw o-pound case Of aged limburger cheese
caused a near panic among the flrst-class
passengers and stopped the Pioneer limited
train at Red Wing, MINI.
A family of sixteen, father mother and
fourteen children, ranging in age from an
infant to a boy II, was seated among other
passengers in the single day coach at
tached to the train. After a good nights
sleep the children were awakened when
the Red Wing harp orchestra members
noisily boarded the train at Kellogg. The
children at once began crying for some
thing to eat. The kindly father, in an ef-
fort to relieve the pangs Of hunger, pulled
out his jackknife and cut into the cheese.
This was spread literally on brown bread
and passed out to the children. The odor
OF the cheese awakened the men and one
by one they took refuge in the vestibule.
The women breathed through their muffs
and, first taking 1t as a joke on the male
passengers, chuckled behind their furs; but
1t soon became serious and they. too, fled
to the smoking compartment.
In Red Wing the windows and doors Of
the car were thrown wide open in the hope
OF relieving the situation and a delay OF
five minutes was the result.
The conductor stated It was the worst
experience he had ever had with a family
OF immigrants. 1t was the only thing they
had for breakfast and he could not deprive
them Of their first meal OF the day.-St.
Paul Dispatch.

surprised recently by offers to put new

glass in their windows free Of cost. Upon
dow panes that the seemingly charitable
persons wanted to replace had the precious
amethyst tint.
Among the Philadelphia ocuHsts that
have been working with the amethyst
tinted lenses is pr. L. Webster Fox, pro-
lessor OF ophthalmology in the Medico-
Chirurgical college, and an oculist of wide
repute.
DR.. Fox has been able to cure many
cases of temporary loss Of sight and badly
strained eyes when the amethyst tint was
corporated with correcting lenses. He
has been particularly successful in the case
Of printers, typewriters, students, and
newspape men, all OF whom are required to
apply the eyes closely under artificial H.
Elimination. After wearing the violet glass,
the patient, as a rule, refuses to go back
to the colorless glass, wearing the other
indefinitely. The glass has been prescribed
with great relief to those whose eyes are
exposed in an X-ray laboratory.-Philadel-

VIOLET GLASSES AID THE EYES
Remarkable Claim Made for Win
dow Glass Tinted by
the Sun.

A discovery OF great value to those
whose sight has been impaired by work
ing under artificial light has been made
in Philadelphia. It was learned that anne
thyst-tinted lenses made from window pane
would cure blindness caused by working
on bright metals and under artificial light.
This glass is simply ordinary window
panes that have been in use for more than
s~eventy-five years. In that times It has
been turned az amethyst tint by the direct
rays OF the sun
Philadelphia eye specialists are optimis-
tic in their contentious for the glass, which
is termed by the oculists and opticians
the Philadelphia glass" Some Of the
most widely known physicians in the city
say that It has proved wonderfully effec-
tive. and that the eye disorders that 1t will
relieve and cure are many. Although the
first announcement OF the good re-
suits from the use of this glass was made
only about six months ago. It has received
widespread attention, and Philadelphia

JOSEPH CHANGES HIS COAT
PhilRdeIphiRn Lost Con-
science and ReDents of His
RObberies.

The spectacle of a millionaire telling his
hearers that he made his millions by rob-
bling the people, that all m~onopolists do,
but that he had begun to recover his con-
science and was going to devote his wealth
to fighting the system which made It pos
sible, was the unique entertainment pro-
vided by the City club OF Chicago at its
luncheon last Wednesday. The speaker
was Joseph Fels of Philadelphia. head Of
a naphtha soap company bearing his name.
He said he was a disciple Of Henry George
and would always remain a single taxer."

FIGURES TO MEASURE NATIONS
Chart Used by DIR. Eubank Tells a
Great story.

Chart UBed by DR.. Eubank Tells a
Great tory.
Measurement of nations by figures OF
men, presented on a chart at the First
Methodist church, made some folks open
their eyes when DR.. NJ. D.. Eubank of China
pointed out its significance.
The doctor has a delightful hint of a
southern burr on his tongue, and he had
the whole roomful smiling continually as
he characterized the figures representing
each nation on the chart.
Most Of the nations appear very small.
mere boys" as the doctor put 1t. He
alluded to Uncle San as the "half-grown
boy with the plug hat on, who thinks he
is some pumpkins" and worked along up to
Russia, which is show as a bulky, be-
whiskered, brigand looking giant. But over
at the end is q ~giant-China. The figure
standing for the Celestial empire simply
dwarfs all the rest, as a thing alone in
size. Mr.. Chinaman has a smirk on his
mug as large as most of the other nations.
His pigtail is bigger than several shoe
string congressional districts in the United
States, and his yellow button hat would
smother several OF the figures on the chart
with him.
The chart was effective In impressIng
those who gazed at 1t with some OF the
difficulties missionaries meet in trying to
cover a whole nation with a small force
and a suspiciously thin commlssary de-
partment behind them.

They did and as they Joined there was a
stream or pencil-pushers crowdlng through
