YUAN SHI-KAI HAS
 CHANGED POLICY IN
 TITLE CONFIRMING
Titles will be Made Hereditary \ as Long as Government Ex-
 ists; Ruler Shows Disposi-
 ton to Confer Decorations.

PEKING. Jan. 5.-Emperor-Elect Yu. an Shi-kai has apparently changed his mind about the titles he will confer upon loyal followers. It was original ly announced that the titles to be cre- ated would not be perpetual. Many of them were to cease upon the death of the sons of the men on whom they were conferred. Now, however, new regulations have been drawn up which will make titles hereditary as long as the government exists.
 Hereditary titles of six ranks will be created. The first rank will be king or prince. Then comes duke, marquis. earl. viscount and baron in the order named. Tn elast four titles are to be divided into three classes by fixing a prefix to each. The government will retain the right to cancel titles should their holders conduct themselves in a manner regarded as improper by the emperor.
 Newspapers which are unfriendly to the monarchical restoration have been attacking the title scheme since il was first suggested and declare it is re turn to the old regime wholly out of keering with the spirit of progress the educated Chinese hope to see prevail
 Recently, Yuan has also displayed a disposition to confer many decorations TbiS ;c alec yrO1,o;nu ,,,,ob orit;oic,,, in the newspapers which oppose the change in government. The following mandate issued by Yuan is typical of orders concerning decorations: Gov ernor Chin Yung of Shansi reports that eight brothers of the Chiao fami- ly in the Chi district of Shansi con tributed the sum of s150.000 to the government and stated that they did not expect any reward. The said citi- zens plac ethe state before everything else and do their best to render assist ance to the government. They would be rewarded for their patriotism Chi ao Yin-hui is hereby given the fourth class Chiao-ho decoration. Chiao Yin kuei. Chiao Yin-hsiao. Chiao lin-cheng and Chiao Yin nar are hereby given the fifth class Ch;ao-ho decorations
 Chinese newspapers continue to print appeals made 10 Yuan Shi-kai by admirers who desire him to ascend the throne. The last message sent to the Emperor, Elect by Admiral Tseng Ju- cheng has just been made public, and is published broadcast in the vernac- ular papers: To-day we received a telegram from Feng Kuo-chang. the governor of Kiangsu province, advis- ing that the representatives of the cit izens of the whole province have voted in favcr of constitutional monarchy; and that they all again voted that our great president should become the great emperor of the Chinese Empire. which shall endure and maintain one unbroken dynasty extending to ten'

MOTORISTS ENTHUSIASTIC.

Much enthusiasm is evinced among local motorists, relative to the mid January auto trip to Fl Paso. The plan of Southern Arizona motorists to visit the Pass City, as a sort of return courtesy for attention bestowed by Fl Pasoans in visits. to this section. seems 70 meet wide approval. The promoters of the plan surely are to be congratu- lated upon their public-spirited and un- selfish efforts which will make possi- ble the visit to the progressive city of West Texas.

German Children Sleep in Woods.


Since pine forests were a trifle re-
mote and impracticable in cities,
schools for anaemic children were es-
tablished on the roofs of buildings,
and the pine trees brought to them.
Here they were given a regular course
of treatment which usually resulted
in their returning to the schOolrOOm
in good health. Special clothes were
designed which prevented them from
taking cold, and consisted of head
gear and pantaloons resembling the
apparel of an Esquimaux. There were
also cots and blankets for each child.
1t is somewhat doubtful if the pine
trees had any beneficial effect, but
the children were kept entertained and
amused making trimmings for them.
Began As Innovation.
All over the cities, then, appeared
curious devices on the roofs and bal
comics of buildings. People were
sleeping out of doors. Tents were
erected on side lawn, and beds were
seen half protruding through the win
dows, while in the suburbs if became
the popular pastime to sleep in the
trees. One man who owned large
apple tree, built platform in its
wide-spreading branches, on which he
placed a cot and curtains, and became
the envy of his admiring friends.
Joy of Getting Back TO Nature.
/ Nothing more was to be heard Of
/ the detrimental effect of night air.
People dropped off to sleep in their
! hammOcks in the orchard and the next
day reported enthusiastically the joy
of getting back to nature. The ques-
ton of health was lost completely in
/ the aesthetic delight of communion
with the stars. Meanwhile, architects
all over the country were kept occu-
pied designing porches with outdoor
sleeping rooms.
Sleeping pOrches were tackled on to
every angle of the house, and whole
/ families took up their beds and moved
out into the open. Winter coming on,
La few deserters crept back to their
steam-heated rooms, but the majority
were intrepid, and, laden with blank
cts and hot water bottles, stuck to the
porches and the stars. The delightful

Food Abstinence Beneficial"
Says Prominent Authority

birth rate is so extraordinarily high
that one may almost hope that the
saving of life among the civilians and
the creation of life will very greatly
offset the losses in manhood at the
front. 1t is even possible that despite
the enormous numbers of men killed
the total population of Europe will be
greater at the end of the war than it
was at the beginning.
Germane to the subject of abstem-
iousness as promotive Of health, it is
noteworthy that the Allen method of
treating diabetes embodies this prin-
ciple, Hereward Darlington, writing
to the New York Times, observes:
The new method of treatment con-
sists for the most part, in fast of
short duration, followed by a restrict
ed diet. devoid of fats, the object be-
ing to keep the patient thin. The in
novation consists, we are told, in the
application of fasting to the cure of
this disease. II has been shown that
fasting two or tn ee days causes the
dextrose to disappear from the It's
sues; fasting reduces the sugar;
and that, contrary to all ordinary eX-
pectations, even patients who at the
start were weak and emaciated bore
the fasting we'll. They gave the i'm
preston, thin as they were from the
first, that they have been suffering
more from auto-intoXication than
from lack of nutrition"
Mr.. Darlington contends against
the notion that the fasting cure for
diabetes is a novelty, asserting that
as long ago as 1902 he recommended
it himself. In this case, he says, the
patient tasted for twenty days, TAX
ing nothing but water, and the cure
was so complete that a physician liv-
ing in another city, refused to believe
that the sugar specimens" sent him
at the beginning and end of twenty
days were from the same man. Fur
thermore, he cites Doctor Guelpa Of
Paris, in a work entitled "Auto-In-
recommending fasting as a cure for
diabetes and other diseases, and de-
claring that, far from being as fatal
as usually supposed, diabetes if right
ly treated is as readily durable as a
cold in the head.
1t is evident that if the outcome Of
the present experiments at the Rookie
Teller Institute is as favorable as now
seems probable it will cease to be
fashionable to scott at judicious fast
ing as an efficient method of treatment
in certain kinds of disease. But the
Allen treatment for diabetes, it is to
be remembered, embodies the use of
selected foods for nourishment as well
as fasting process; and no doubt it
would be unwise for people not well
versed in pathology to resort. to fast
ing as a health measure except with
the advice of a Evening

WHY YOU SNEEZE.

There is more than one cause for
sneezing, and persons may differ in
their susceptibility to them, says a
specialist in disease of the nose and
throat.
"a bright light will cause some per-
sons to sneeze, the pollen of certain
plants will affect others, and most peo-
pie are likely to sneeze in the pres
ence of dust. Such sneezing is due to
superficial irritation.
1.-THE sneeze caused by the effect of
cold is different. 1t is an attempt of
nature to cure you. She makes you
sneeze for the same reason that she
makes you shiver-to generate heat
for warming the blood and preventing
you from taking more cold-to help to
relieve the cold you have.
"The sneezing from cold is not an
act of the nose alone, this being mere
ly the part of the body where it ex-
plOdes. 1t is an act of the entire body
during which every muscle gives a
jump. The body is affected by spas
modic effort to warm the entire sys-
tenn and throw off cold. Pittsburgh
