And heres one thing which viii
make hit with American men:
Couc rolls his own!
frequently, while he is explaining
his theory, or while he is speaking
to various patents, he gets out his
paper and tobacco, rolls cigarette
and contentedly puffs away at it
Ard with true French thrift, he
smokes it clear down to the butt.
On the Other days of the week, ex-
cePt Sunday when he rests, Coue has
one clinic day for people who have
coMie to Nancy from a distance.
From All Over World
In addition to the French peasants
and middle class people who came
from all over this Lorraine country
| saw Americans from New York
and Connecticut, Britons, Canadians
and one couple from South Africa.
The Americans were mainly suf.
ferers from neuresthenia. The
Trench peasants came to be helped
in their sufferings from stomach
troubles, eczcma, rheumatism, eu-
ritis, all kinds Of ills.
Coue himself says that young per-
sons, and especially women, are most
susceptible to his treatment.
In the clinics I attended women
were in the great majority anC
many Of them were old
Coue spots the newcomers al
Fonce. He has an excellent memory
for faces and for the illness of thl
individuals.
Makes Simple Inquiry.
He came over to me at once anC
| thought-<'Now for it."
! But @ simply asked in his keenly
interested way what was suffering
from.
"Ah, bad nerves! Many Of yor
Americans seem troubled that way
You will get better-and soon"
There were no other questions
that day, SO far as | was concerned
But | was now full-fledged patien
at clinic and welcome to get al
the good out Of it that | could.
Tomorrow-Brcnner tells of his frs
treatment by Coue.

 after investigation by Detective Sergeant Vim. P. McCue, tosbe noth-
 ing more than simple hoax, perpe-
 trated by 15 year old girl on a chum. Thomas Bailey. of 2,03S Stan ley street, discovered Sunday on the veranda of his home, a box which he took into his apartment and opened. It contained wax hand and had been evidently shipped through the American Express Co.,. although the address on the outside had been obliterated.
 With the hand was a note, con taining the following: "163 F. Ja- binna street. Paterson, N. J. Beware, yours time has now come. My pa- tience is exhausted. Remember Red Hand reigns supreme King of the Red Hand.'
 Detective McCue started an invcsti gation on being notified of the dis covery, and he learned that 15 year old girl had melted some Christmas candles, and then made the hand. and i sent it with a note to aschum, as a joke. The supposed recipient lives i n the house with Mir Bailey, and i his accounts for the leaving of the | package on his veranda.
