NATIVE STONE is THE BEST
Ranks First as Material for Small
Houses, With Well Chosen
Brick Second.

In materials, native stone, shipped
stone, concrete, brick, shingles and
planks are good in the order named.
Native stone deserves first place be-
cause 1t is sure to be good in color
for the place in which it is quarried,
especially after 1t is somewhat wealth
cred. Shipped stone is often quite as
good, sometimes even better, and oc-
casionally bad. In using either kind
of stone for small houses, a heavy
and clumsy effect may be obtained
unintentionally, If the stone Is very
rough hewn. The smoother the stone,
or the narrower the layers of it, the
less danger there is of this heaviness.
Concrete has naturally good color,
and may be toned artiicially, If de-
sired Brick, If we'll chosen, is q
close second to native stone. From
that position it runs down the scale
until 1t is scarcely better in quality
than wood, and less agreeable to look
at. A brick Of staring red will be
horror to any cultivated eye; and II
you wish to make such a house a
nightmare, you have only to surround
1t with purple clematis, scarlet salvin,
geraniums and crimson ramblers. The
result is better imagined than seen.
Wood, the poorest of building mate
rails, is discouraged by all our build
ing laws. 1t needs constant painting,
repairs and worrying with, and is to
be taken only as a last resort, in

QUEER DISEASE IS
IN UNITED STATES
Many Here Afflicted With Odd
AiIment, Says Prof.
Munyon.
GREWS0ME CREATURES
VERY COMMON,
FINDS EXPERT.

Many people in the United States are
afnlcted with q queer disease, according
TO a statement yesterday by Professor
James M. Munyon. He made the follow
Ing remarkable and rather grewsome
statement:
Many persons who come and write to
my headquarters at SD and Jefferson
sts S;.r Plhilssdelphia. Pa. think they are
when In reality they are the victims of
an entirely different disease-that of
tape worm. These tape worms are huge
internal parasites, which locate in the
centage of the nutriment in undigested
food They sometimes grow to a length
Of forty to sixty feet. One may have a
tape worm for years and never know
the cause of his or her i'll health.
Persons who are suffering from one
Of these creatures become nervous, weak
and irritable, and tire at the least ex-
ertion The tape worms rob one of am
bition and vitality and strength, but they
are rarely fatal.
1.-The victim of this disease is apt to
believe that he is suffering from chronic
stomach trouble, and doctors for years
without relief. This is not the fault Of
the physicians he consults, for there is
no absolute diagnosis that will tell posi-
lively that one is not victim of tape
worm.
"The most common symptom of this
trouble is an abnormal appetite. At
times the person is ravenously hungry
and cannot get enough to eat. At other
times the very sight of food is loathsome.
There is a gnawing, faint sensation at
the pit of the stomach, and the victim
has headaches, fits of dizziness and nau-
sea. He cannot sleep at night and often
thinks he is suffering from nervous pros
tration.
81 have a treatment which has had
wonderful success in eliminating these
great creatures from the system. In the
course of its regular action in, aiding
digestion, and Kidding the blood, kidneys
and liver of impurities it has proven fatal
to these great worms. If one has q tape
worm, this treatment will, in nine cases
out of ten, stupefy and pass it away, but
II not, the treatment will rebuild the
rundown person, who is probably suffer-
ing from stomach trouble and a general
anaemic condition. My doctors report
marvellous success here with this treat
ment. Fully dozen persons have passed
these worms, but they are naturally reti-
cent about discussing them, and OF course
we cannot violate their confidence by CIV
ing their names to the public"

GARDEN CITY or GERMANY
description of HeIIerau, the Ideal
Town Recently Built on the Out
skirts Of Dresden.

Just on the outskirts of Dresden
there has sprung into existence dur
ing the last two years garden city,
the first Of its kind in Germany. Ber-
lin has made attempts in this direc-
ton, but they we're more as a form
Of land speculation.
Hellerau is in a healthy location,
two miles distant and about 300 feet
higher than Dresden. The wooden
parts are preserved as much as pos
sible. The 315 acres are divided into
one section for cottages, the other
for villas. The streets are already
laid out and all are to be provided
with gas and water connections and
with drains. Arrangements will also
be made for a supply of electricity.
The cottage ection is built by the
Hellerau Building society and the
houses are rented to members only.
Membership is secured by taking a
share equal to $47.60 and the liability
of the members ends there. Interest
up to per cent Ia paid on these
shares and any further profits are d.
vided among the community. Tenure
Is fixed and the tenant may leave at
years notice.
Cottages are built to rent at $62 to
$3.50 annually. Each cottage has a
garden, large cellar, separate soul
lery with built-in boiler, pantry, wa
ter closet on the ground floor, easily
accessible attic, gas for cooking, cleo
trio light and bells, water connection,
and If needed accommodation for do
nestle animals, The smallest cottage
consists Of four rooms, kitchen and
living room on the ground floor and
two bedrooms on thu upper floor,
large enough for a family with two
or three children. During last year
$50 of these cottages were built and
are now occupied. For 1911 an ad-
ditional $50 are already planned.
In the villa quarter residences are
to be had at rent of 5000 to $500
and over, with steam heat, warm wa
ter to the bedrooms and other con-
veniences. Construction is under.
taken by the Garden City company
according to the wishes of the in
tending tenant The house and
grounds are then let at a rent proper
tionate to the cost of building and the
value of the land (51s per cent of the
former and 6 per cent of the latter.
The land is valued at 1872 cents per
square foot Tin the cottage quarter
at 9.3 cents per square FOOT. The
tenant must provide four-tenths Of the
cost Of building and 4 per cent inter
est is paid on this sum.
An artistic uniformity of building
is guaranteed by building commits
sion, the sanction of which is re-
quired for all plans. Electric light is
supplied from the power station OF
the German Institute of Technical
Arts at a cost of 9.5 cents per kilo-
watt hour; gas costs 45.4 cents per
1000 and water 30.8 cents per 1000
cubic feet.
Preparatory schools are provided
for the younger children; there is an
Institute Of Technical Arts, and a
small nursery which undertakes work
in the gardens of new houses and a
small school of gardening could cas-
lily be attached to this. There is an
electric car service from the city out
to Hellerau, the run taking about 20
