GOT THE VISUAL EVIDENCE
Eastern Doctor Traiis a Drink Of
Punch From the Lips to tho
Stomach.

Having followed with his eyes the
course Of a milk punch from the
mouth of a patient into his stomach.
DR.. Henry V. Broeser of Hoboken, N.
j.. began the treatment of case in
which visual evidence viii take the
place of books and theories in meas
ures TO effect a cure. The doctor
seemed specially pleased with the
prospect because, he said, the chances
would be against recovery If he had
to rely on the blind expedients which
practitioners commonly employ In
such maladies.
The novelty in this treatment con-
sists of the use of the Horoscope in
observing alimentary and digestive
processes. DR.. Broeser made the dag
nosis. No one before him had EN-
ployed the Horoscope for such case,
30 far as he knows.
His patient was placed in front Of
the lighting machine and the X-ray
directed toward the body with an IN
tensity Of 1000 volts, but with am
perage so attenuated that the man
experienced no discomfort. The ex-
IRENE brightness of the ray projected
on glass. screen, coated with a salt
solution of barium, platinum and eva
hide, a. replica in shadows of the
living body, showing the beating
heart and other organs so clearly
that when the milk punch was drunk
its passage from mouth to stomach
was perfectly visible on the glass.

Natural TO Imagine That Under the
Circumstance oeIieaey Had c
Peculiar Flavor.

This is a true story Of what hap
pened not long ago at a C. A. r.
banquet in I-=nsas town.
Two epicursans had reached the
dessert Of the menu. Blackberry pie
was the piece de resistance. The pie,
rich and juicy, had been brought to
the dinner on a pasteboard pie pan,
but the juice had soaked through the
pasteboard and pan and pie had been
slipped on a china plate
Man." said one epicurean. as he
severed a generous bite with'his fork,
this is the best looking pie ever
looked at But as he "Fletcherized. d"
a blank look dawned on his face. he
took another bite. IT'S little, differ-
ent from any blackberry pie I ever
ate," he said thoughtfully, but it's
great, that's what it is"
The other man ate contentedly. "Of
course it tastes that way to you," he
said superciliously, "but my daughter,
you know, is an advanced domestic
science student and this pie doesn't
have an unusual taste to me at ALL"
They were finishing in satisfaction, the
domestic science girls dad was reluc-
family lifting the last juicy bite from
the plate, when half smothered gig
gle at his right diverted his attention.
He turned inquiringly.
You've both eaten the pasteboard
plate with your pie" explained the
fellow guest, her face very red with
suppressed laughter. Sure enough
they had.

Dear Miss Grey: I am

Willingness to advise.

rap she opened my door
with a bang, demanding to
know why | allowed her
boy to come there. Declar-
ing that no good could de-
rive from such friendship.
Her boy was not in the
house at the time. nor had
he been but once.
! can easily understand
why a mother should wish
to know the sort of friends
her boy has, but should she
have acted as she did? Or
am | wrong about allowing
these boys (all between
fourteen and sixteen) to
call, and would 1t tend to
make them bad?
/ Since this happened l
have not allowed any of them
to come.
My husband thinks this Is
wrong, and says | should pay
no attention to her.
