Museum in Germany Collects
Works of Bad Taste
and Trash.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
STUTTGART, Germany, october l.
TO come upon a museum which not
only admits but proclaims that it has
lot of trash in its collections is some
thing refreshing in the world of art.
The KitSch Museum Tor Museum or
Bad Taste and TraSh'0, in Stuttgart.
provides this experience. Connected
with the College Of Applied Arts here,
its director. Prof. Gustav PaZaurek. has
for years collected articles of absurdlty
and bad art for the purpose of educat-
ing the public to high standards by an
inverse of the usual methods.
Among the stellar attractions are
noSegayS made of clipped tin9ernallS,
the Kaiser and all his family Sculp-
tured in soap muStache brushes in the
form Of Women'S legs, and furniture
made of human bones.
Prof. Pazaurek, however. has paid for
his pains. The manufacturers and de-
signers of some of the bric-a-brac
which he has held up to riItcule laid
siege to his position. A short time ago
he resigned his profeSsorShip, and it is
now being debated whether the mu-
scum should not be closed altogether.
other Odd Collections.
In addition to the museum here there
are other collections in Germany which
prcba bly, are unique. One Is the ag-
gregation of church bells in the City
of Apollo. in Thuringia. A second is
the famous suicide library of Augsburg,
in Bavaria; still another is the tooth
pick museum in Berlin.
The suicide collection, connected with
the Bavarian State Library was gath
cred by DR.. Hans RoSt, an Augsburg
writer. He spent many years in storing
up books and treatSies on suicide in
every language and from all points of
view, and brought together total of
more than 1000 Volumes on the subject
Cause Of Destruction.
From the numerous antemortem
statements of the victims who people
his books DR.. Rost deduces that in most
cases ethical motives. not material dis
treSs, causes self-deStruction. He also
calculated that the least number of sui
CideS occur on those days Of the week
generally observed as pay days; that Is,
Friday and Saturday. People are more
wont to drink on those days than to kill
themselves. DR.. RoSt observes, pointing
out that alcohol thus has distinct life
saving merit.
The quaint collection Of toothpickS
in Berlin contains some 1000 exhibits
gathered by DR.. Hans Sachs, Berlin
dentist. Some of the specimens date
back to Roman times. After that there
seems to be a gap in this form of oral
hygiene, but beginning with the four
tenth century the fashion is taken up
again, and from this period up to the
present day there is an exhaustive out
lay of specimens in all shapes and of
all materials. Better dentistry and
what most people deem better manners
have brought the collector in this line
to a practical Standstill, but a couple of
hours in any Berlin restaurant will
prove there Is still chance of revival.

LOTTERY F[OPS;

IS TOO SLOW
Winner SquaWks; There's
No Funds to Pay Off;
Operator Held.

Because, in effect, he dug big
hole, climbed in and pulled the hole
in after him, Frank Mulholland was
in court today, according to his
story to police.
Mulholland is accused as operat-
ing the Capital Bond lottery. He
lives at $40 East drive, Woodruff
Place.
A holder of a 81 ticket complained
to officers that he won a $3.50 prize,
but that the lottery refused to pay
him.
Mullholland admitted, police say,
that he created the lottery, based
on figures Of the United States
treasury statements.
However, he said, he had only
sold Sixty-five tickets, and the de-
mandS Of prize winners for their
money piled up too fast for him to
provide funds to pay.
His trial has been continued until
Aug. Ia before Municipal Judge Will
liam H. Scheaffer.
Alleging they broke up one of the
largest lotteries operating in the
city, police late Monday raided an
apartment at $50 Park avenue and
arrested Ernest SeiWert.
Seiwert, they say, instigated and
ran the News Club" pool, lottery
awarding prizes on letter combina-
tons chosen from letters in daily
newspaper stories. Siewert is
charged with operating a lottery
and gift enterprise, and is held in
lieu of $4,000 bond.
Police said they had information
he ran the lottery since November,
1880, with list of more than 5000
persons paying weekly toll of Is
cents each.
Siewert's hearing before Munich
pal Judge William H. Sheaffer was
continued this morning until July
80.

with safety assured both mother
and child under a method now in

where 1900 babies are born annu-

The new method, adapted from
a method in use in Germany, calls
for use of the drug pernocton,
which is injected into the veins Of
the mother as soon as pains become
severe.
1t has displaced twilight Sleep"
abandoned By many obstetricians
almost two years ago because it
produced not only a stupor in the
mother but in some cases the child
could not be reSuscitated.
The pernocton injection produces
sleep similar to that produced by
the twilight sleep" method, and its
duration is from two to four hours,
after which injections may be re-
peated.
All pain is not eliminated, but
memory of the pain is obliterated,
it was said.
The new method first was tried
about two years ago. experimentally.
and has been carried on experiment
tally since then. For about six
months it has been used in the ma
jority of the hospitals maternity
cases.
In a forthcoming issue Of the
American Journal of Obstetrics and
Gynecology, DR.. Radford Brown of
