Dr. Emma Dunharn has returned from New York City, where she has opn- pleted eoursa in Nsturopatny and EIectherapy at the. National Eclectic Institute. Dr. Dunhan1 has installed in her office the most improved ap- pliances for treating nervous diseases rheumatism, skin diseases and paraly- sis.
 The equipment includes an appliance for treating with light theraputics and an alternating current apparatus to aid in the treatment of infsatile paralysis.
 This method of treatment for infantile' paralysis has superseded the older forms of massage treatment and is proving a great success in the city hospitals where it is used extensively. A method of destroying by electricity the microbes which infect wounds has also been successfully worked out and applied with this equipment, and it is possible to give the patient the most strenuous kind of treatment, elinninat- ing the discomfort usually experienced in ordinary electrical current appliea- ton.
 lt is being proved most conclusively that the Naturopath (Road to Health) system of treating human ailments is highly successful, and in the large cities it's methods are being adopted ! by an ever increasing multitude of patrons. The people of Norwich and vicinity will be interested to know thai | this form of cure can be had without the expense and inconvenience o- travelling to the large cities, and Dr Dunham's increasing patronage is evi- dence of their appreciation of the fasa

FEELING OF-PIQUE
IN BRITISH CIRCLES

LONDON, Sept. 13.-There is a feeling
of pique IN British official circles be-
cause Great Britain has not been kept
fully informed as to the preparations for
the Far East. and disarmament confer
ence in Washington, it was revealed to-
day. This revelation came about through
cablegram from the correspondent OF
the Daily Express. which says:
THE United States does not intend TO
engage in naval rivalry with Great Brit
ain; the Washington Administration is
willing tscitly to recognize Great Brit
aims special position as an island power
with enormous raval commitments"
This cablegram brought forth a prompt
denial from the British foreign office that
there had been any communicated with
Washington upon the subject.
While officials do not speak their minds
openly they indicate that British Of
hcialdom feels sighted because It was
not more fully informed regarding the
preliminary plans for the conference. 1t
was declared Great Britain cannot ap-
point her delegates until the foreign Of
fee has been informed as to the subjects
to be discussed.
The Daily Express story says the opin-
ion prevails in Washington that Japan
IS still under considerable military in
fuence and hints that this is a stumbling
block In the way of favorable results
from the Washington This
view finds ready support in London.

HOLD LEAGUE.
MONROE VIEW
COMPATIBLE
Bolivian Delegates Issue a
Statement on Dispute
With Chile.

GENEVA. Sept 13.-Acting upon ad-
vices from the home government, the Bo-
livian delegation to the League of Ma
tions assembly meeting today issued a
statement explaining the previous declara-
ton that 1t did not recognize the Mon
roe Doctrine as extending to the present
dispute with Chile
Bolivia does not consider the Monroe
Doctrine as being incompatible with the
powers conferred upon the League Of
Nations" said the Bolivian statement.
CONTROVERSY OVER
TREATY OF 19O4.
The Bolivian statement grew out Of the
controversy with Chile over the Tacna-
africa treaty Of 1904, which Bolivia wishes
the league to reyise. Chile contends that
the league has no right to act and that
intervention by the lea que might be con-
stgued as d violation Of the Monroe doc
trfne
The Bolivian delegation announced first
that it had communicated with Washing
tone and that the American Government
had made II known that II did not op-
pose Bolivia's appeal to the league. Later
the Bolivians rsid they did not recog-
nize the Monroe doctrine in the present
case at all. The telegram from the
Bolivian government followed.
The eve Of the first ballot to select
judges for the International court Of jus
tice and arbitration found the delegates
engaged in political maneuvering and log
rolling.
The league founders are anxious to put
the court above all suspicion of politics
but human vanity and national pride in
tervened with tn eresult that the various
nations are lighting for representa- ton
among the eleven judges and the four
deputy judges with all Of the zeal OF

The definite refusal Of Elihu Root to
serve on the bench OF the international
court may result in America not having
a representative on the tribunal. although
the names OF two other Americans have
been put forward-John Bsssett Moore
and Dean Roscoe Pound Of the Harvard
law school.
The Italians have announced they
would support Mr. Moore and It vas
rumored that some of the officials of the
