FRIEDMAN sure
OF FAVORABLE
FEDERAL REPORT
German Scientist Can See No
Other Verdict From
Results
TO CONFIDE SECRET
TO PHYSICIANS SOON
Girl Patient, Whose Knee Was
Stiff for Two Years, Now
Walks

NEW YORK. April 3.-Apparently
convinced that the government physi-
clans would make a favorable report
or his tuberculosis treatment. DR..
Friedrich Franz friedman today an
nounced that within a few days or O
week the secret of his turtle baccilli
culture injection would be given to
the American medical profession AT
large.
I'VE shall not tell the world how
to make the liquid for injection" DR..
Friedman said. through his interpret
er, "as that would be dangerous to
the interests of the public But we
shall arrange, through regular chan
nels, so that all reputable physicians
may be able to obtain my remedy ana
treat tuberculosis in all parts of the
country"
1t was explained that the much-dis-
cussed secret withheld by DR..
Friedman. Is the method OF trans
forming the extract from the culture
OF bacilli into the liquid injected into
the patients. In this process several
foreign substances are used, ana
without this knowledge, possessed
only by DR.. Friendmann and his rep
resentative In Germany. he said, the
remedy cannot be given.
The German scientist was asked II
he would wait for the governments
favorable report before giving out his
remedy.
There can be but one report" he
said, all the physicians who have
been keeping q record of the cases
treated In this country will admit that
the patients have uniformly improved.
In many instances the results have
been so remarkable in their quickness
that even l was astonished.
In Germany, II was the same. The
examining physicians there report eo
favorably. They can do nothing else
here, in view OF the facts"
DR.. Friedman visited the hospitai
for deformities and joint diseases to-
day, to take another record of the
patients treated there several weeks
ago. He said he was especially in
terested in the case Of q girl. who. al
the time Of treatment for tuberculosis
of the knee, had been unable for two
years TO move her right leg at the
knee, but already could walk on the
limb with a slight limp.
DR.. Friedman and his associates
would not discuss the plan for dis
ttrfbutfng the remedy, but made IL
clear that safeguards are being pro-
vided, to prevent the indiscriminate
use of the remedy by INSCRIPTIONS
or incompetent physicians"

BLIND TELEPHONE GIRLS.

sishtIess Switchboard Operators Are
Giving Satisfaction In Baltimore.
The telephone has opened new field
for blind girls. Recently the Mary
land School for the Blind in Baltimore
graduated six well trained operators.
and the managers believe they will be
able to open up this line of endeavor
to other Blind girls. These six pioneers
are working with the regulation switch
board, but efforts are being made to
devise a new kind of board which will
simplify the work and make for great
er efficiency.
Two of the girls are now running the
board in the Central Young Mems
Christian Association building. one of
the most difficult In the city. By the
keenness OF their hearing the girls are
almost able to detect at once over
which wire the call may come by the
falling Of the little drop. They always,
slide their fingers along the board to
be sure they have the right drop.

The Iron Duke, of course, was Wei
lington, but he came by the nickname
in roundabout way. He was never
30 called until long after Waterloo. An
iron steamship, novelty at the time,
was built In the Mersey and named the
Duke OF Wellington, and so the vessel
came to be known as the Iron Duke,
the transition being easy and obvious.
1t was the dukes union OF resolution
and physical energy which made the
popular name for the Mersey built
steamship to fit him like perfect cap.
Such. mt least. is the explanation Of his
biographer, Sir Herbert MAXWELL

BRITISH GROUSE HUNTERS.

No Business Is Allowed to interfere
With Their Sport.
The grouse hunting season in Britain
opens on Aug. ~. On that day every
Englishman and every Scot who makes
any pretension TO a standing in society
goes cunning for two weeks at least.
Nothing is allowed to stand in the way
Of this annual diversion. For week
or two preceding this outing business
is of little consequence. Everything
to receive any attention at all must re-
late In some way to guns and dogs.
A year or so ago New York man had
occasion to go to London to meet a
British fnancier to put the finishing
touches to "a matured business propO-
sition. He arrived couple Of days be-
fore the 18th of August. The fnan-
cier was not in his place of business.
NO" said his chief clerk; "he has
gone for the grouse shoot He will not
talk business with any one. do not
think he will see you at all, SIR"
But" said the New Yorker. IT have
crossed the Atlantic for no other pur-
pOse tBdu " see .ultn. Luis uuSlutSS
will not take more than half an hour
of his time, and then I'm off for home
again"
II should advise against your going
to his home, sir. He would not receive
anybody at this, time. He will attend
to no business"
But the New Yorker thought differ
emily. He went to the country home
Of the financier, A burly butler met
him at the door. TO him the New
Yorker gave his card. 1t was prompt
ly returned to him.
"The master" said the butler, will
see no one. He sets out for the grouse
shooting tomorrow. He says to call,
please, In fortnight"
And the New Yorker was compelled
to remain two weeks longer until the
Englishman returned from his hunt,
when the business was finished In
twenty minutes.--Indianapolis News.

SPIRIT OF THE AIR.
II Perneates the Entire Being Of the
Flying Bird.

Il Perneates the Entire Being Of the
Flying Bird.
The bird is little more than drift Of
the air brought into form by plumes.
TIE air is in all its quills. 1t breathes
through its whole frame and flesh and
glows with air in its flying, like brown
flames. 1t rests upon the air. subdues
1t, surpasses it, outraces it's the air,
conscious of itself. conquering itself.
ruling itself. Also in the throat OF
the bird is given the voice of the air.
All that in the mind itself is weak,
wild. useless in sweetness, is knit to-
gether in its song.
As we may imagine the wild form OF
the cloud closed into the perfect form
of the birds wings, so the wild voice
of the cloud into its ordered and com
manded voice. unwearied ripping
through the clear heaven in its glad
ness. interpreting all intense passion
through the soft spring nights, bursting
into acclaim and rapture of choir at
daybreak or lisping and twittering
among the boughs and hedges, through
the heat of day, like little winds that
only make the cowslip bells shake and
rufile the petals of the wild rose
Also upon the plumes of the bird are
put the colors of the air; on these the
gold of the cloud that cannot be gath
cred by any covetousness; the rubies
Of the cloud, that are not the pride of
Athena but are Athena; the vermilion
of the cloud bar. and the fame Of
the cloud crest, and the snow Of the
cloud and its shadow. and the melted
blue of the deep wells of the sky-all
these, seized by the creating spirit and
woven by Athena herself into films
and threads of plume, with wave upon
wave following and fading along
breast and throat and opened wings,
infinite as the dividing Of the foam
and the sitting Of the sea sand. even
the white down of the cloud seeming
to 6utter up between the stronger
plumes-seen, but too soft for touch.
And so the spirit Of the air is put into
and upon this created form. and It be-
comes through twenty centuries the
symbol Of divine help, descending as
the fire to speak, but as the dove tc
bless.-From John Ruskins "Tht
| Queen OF the Air"

REMBRANDT AN EASY MARK.
The Great Painter Was a Victim Of
Reckless Speculation.


Reckless Speculation.
German art students who have been
investigating the reason why Rem
brandt died hopelessly bankrupt have
discovered that he was an incorrigible
speculator. 1t had hitherto been pop
ularly supposed that he was compelled
to remain poor because of his eItrava-
CANT love Of jewels.
Unfortunate speculations turn out
TO have been the cause of his financial
ruin. Documents have been disinter-
red showing that he officially informed
the municipality of Amsterdam that
he had suffered heavy losses in busi-
ness transactions as well as through
damages and losses on the high seas.
1t was at a time, 1640-60, when all
Europe was engaged in feverish mon
ey making in connection with Hol-
lands meteoric commercial prosperity.
Speculation took place on a reckless
scale. Immense fortunes were sunk
in shipping, banking and colonial en-
terprises.
Rembrandt, whose highly artistic
nature was sadly devoid OF even ele-
mentary business sense, fell an easy
victim to the scheming SPECTATORS of
that era Of frenzied finance, and he
lost his entire fortune. Many of his
pictures were seized for debt by the
legal authorities before the canvases
were half finished, Bankruptcy final
