The disease began on the back OF

thick, rough scale that would come off
when soaked with oil or warm water
bringing few hairs each time. but in
few days would form again, larger

Meal.

F. New York.-Diamond Jim Brady, the
worlds only possessor Of 100000
stomach, eats 30-cent lunches. Some
times, just to remind himself Of the
old days, he goes to the Astor house
and spends from 80 cents to 81.
But" he said, 81 can get all l
want for 30 cents
This fact became known when an
investigation into the amounts spent
by rich men for meals was under
taken following the complaint Of a
much worried wife" that her husband
spent $65 per week for luncheon.
Brady recently gave to Johns Hop
kins university endowments and funds
approximating 100000 in grateful &C
acknowledgement to the surgeons for Civ
ing him a new stomach. Previous to
that time he had been as famous for
his astronomical achievements as for
the blazing diamonds that adorn his
waistcoats. shirts and underwear.
Asked what he spent on an average
for luncheon, Diamond jim" answer
ed with alacrity that the amount was
from so cents to 81 when he went
to the Astor house.

he continued, 4 can get all want for

agreed that the warehouse which he
represented would move her furniture

She and her husband were not so
pleased when the bill came, for 1t
amounted to $500. Mitchell explain

all these thoughts and a hundred

other in mad tumult through my brain.

got it for me. 1t was a drug store
near the Parrish home. The druggists

had been telephoning had left the
