THRONGS COME
TO SEE MUNYON
Surprising Number of Visitors Show
Big Interest in Expert.
LOCAL FOLK TESTIFY
Stomach Trouble Conquered and
Rheumatism Pangs Overcome.

One OF the most remarkable features
about Prof. J. NJ. Munyon is the extraor.
binary amount of attention ne has at.
tracted here and all over the country
the immense crowds that have been
fiocking TO see him. and the large guam
tity of mail he received daily at Phila-
delphia. He received mail and visitors
from every city in the United States and
Canada. Most notable Is the fact that
rich and poor come TO him alike. and a
few hours spent at the side of the ply
sCian is a most interesting study in hu.
lnan nature.
Many remarkable cases of relief secured
were related at the store this week. One
was that OF a man who had suffered
from indigestion and stomach trouble
for more than ten years. He said:
II think had one OF the worst cases
OF stomach trouble on record. I could
not digest anything ate. Food ferment-
ed in my stomach and formed gas. which
pressed out in the abdomen and up un-
der my heart, and at times made me
suffer so badly l expected to die. I had
intense headaches and frequent attacks
of dizziness, and I grew short OF breath
when I attempted to walk upstairs I
was also much constipated. I came here
a short while ago and took Munyon' s
full course Of stomach treatment Now
l must admit / feel like u new man.
can eat anything want, with no distress
afterward, and all OF the other symptoms
OF my trouble have disappeared 1 mo-
tice particularly that my head is much
clearer and my brain works better I am
full of ambition and energy and enjoy
life hugely. I can never tell how glad
I am that ! had the good sense to try
this Munyon treatment"
Another enthusiastic visitor was a wor1-
an who declared that her mother had
been relieved of rheumatism In a most
remarkable manner. She said:
My mother " as fat on her back with
rheumatism, sciatic, muscular, and IN
hammatory. Doctors had pronounced her
case almost incurable and we had about
given up hope Of her ever being able 10
walk again. procured a treatment for
her from one OF these Munyon doctors,
and she IS able to get about the house
with perfect ease and can go outdoors,
and, in fact, do anything that q woman
of her age might be expected to 90.
The rheumatic pains and inflammation
have entirely disappeared. I think this
Munyon treatment Is a positive wonder
worker"

GLEN ECHO CITIZENS
GLAD PEACE is HERE
Witkowski's Exit Without the Shedding of Copious
Tears-Kensington to Have
New Resident

A little rumor waited itself all the way
into Washington last night, which said
that a whole lot Of people out in Glen
Echo will heave a deep sigh Of relief
when the moving vans take the last YES
dge of the personal property Of Louis c.
Witkowski, one-time chief executive of
the driest community in Maryland"
around the bend Of the Conduit road.
The soft, sweet peace. which the rumor
says will settle down on Glen Echo like
a mud hen on its nest when the fight
ing mayor" is gone, will be as welcome
a quantity sas ever the lOnged-fOr aqua
pura has been. The country people and
the government clerks who live IN Glen
Echo will cease TO look furtively behind
them on dark. murky night, when Louis
is gone, and every day it will be a case
Of nothing TO do till Tomorrow" as
far as fighting for water, political pre-
ferment, or anything else, is concerned.
Glad of n Relief.
In his letter of resignation, Mayor
Witkowski says that there are only two
and a half men left of his supporters,
and the rumor says that these will be
glad Of a relief from the strain.
Also the citizens will have the life
blood Of Witkowski off their consciences,
for, says he, in his historic letter ~
have had to protect the water supply
of Glen Echo with my rfe" He also
says. 7 have the secret support of
many" Again rumor insistently whis-

supporters who is keeping the secret
The rumor also says that when in his
letter Witkowski says the council

used the word carcass instead of

getting that possession disfigured than
