present time no successor has been
designated Mr.. Letcher, according
to the Danish press, has become one
of the most popular foreign consular
officers in Denmark, and has done
much to facilitate increasing trade
between the two countries. He is

proceed tactfully, especially at a time

expressed in Denmark because of the
American governments insistence
upon access to production cost figures
relating to Danish export articles
consigned to the United States.

Henry Holt of Grand Forks, N. D.,
head of a printing establishment in

views that since he last saw his "old
country"-some % years ago-it has
become so surprisingly Americanized
in many ways that he even heard
common American slang sayings on
the streets of Oslo. He said that
practically every business man with
whom he spoke while in Norway, was
able to carry on a conversation in
immaculate English, and that there
was very little difference, if any, in
the way American and Norwegian
men and women dressed.

BELGRADE, April 26.-The Rus.
sian Duke Alexander Suyorin, who

here a medical office, was arrested
for quackery, endangsring health
and life of his patients.
Duke Suvorin advertised, that he
has found the all-healing remedy
and the real method Of re1uvena-
ton. The treatment was very
simple. The patient had to be nc.
custOned to do without eating for
= couple Of weeks (l1is cure usually
lasted 40 days), and . Tee had to be
paid.
The title of the "medicine-duke, .
his insinuative manners and his
persuasiveness won him the favor
OF many patients, especially Of the
female sex. His fame grew, the
number of his patients increased
from day to day, and he soon had
a princely income.
Unfortunately, certain diseases
proved incurabIe by his gentle
methods and he was forced to pro.
long the hunger cure and render Il
more severe In several cases. The
consequence Of which were the
paralysis Of the stomach and other
serious phenomena.
The families CT two Of his IA
tally healed patients denounced the
''medicine-duke." The police inter-
fered, and 1t was soon ascertained
that the quack had very little
knowledge of medicine. Whether
