Proposed 20 Erect and Endow to
Memory OF Giant In Literature
Building In London Cost
Ing $780, 600.

London.-Martin Harvey has deliv-
cred a notable address In Leeds on
behalf of the project to erect and en-
dow in 1915 a theater in London as a
memorial Of Shakespeare. That

him and to express our pride In our

civilized world had rendered homage?
A trivial and unregarded little figure,
borne above a fountain which trickled
its small jet into a basin in Leicester
square. That was the sole monument
which was pointed out to the amazed
foreigner who visited the lane of
Shakespeare's birth.

endow 70 his memory q national the
alter at a cost of $4,000. 900. and al
ready a fifth of hat sum had been
raised. AS a result 1t was believed
that Shakespeare would at last re-
ceive in the land of his birth the
homage that he now received only in
Germany. The work which it was
proposed to do in the memorial the
alter was already being done by pri-
vate enterprise.
But it is impossible always to count
upon a continuance of this happy
state of things. S~hakespeare's works

New York.-Mere chance has led to
the discovery that certain forms OF
deafness can be cured by the marvel
Gus power of the X-rays. A fashion
able specialist of Harley street. the
mecca of English physicians, who
treats poor people for small fees on
certain days, was visited not long ago
by a patient who was suffering from
facial neuritis and a bad ulcer on the
tongue.
These the doctor treated with the x
rays and the man rapidly improved.
Recently he began to complain that
he could not sleep. He lived in a very
noisy neighborhood, but as he had
been deaf for the last &c years as the
result of a fall the street noises
bothered him. Now, after a month or
SO of the X-ray treatment he found
that the noise of the street traffic
woke him up.
The specialist investigated the case
and found that there could be no doubt
that the X-rays had cured this mans
deafness. He followed 1t VI by an
equally successful cure Of a working
girl who had become deaf after scar
