very short OF cash. In fact,
Henry said recently ne did not

The floor show began a few
minutes after Mr.. North and
party were seated. Just then.
Henry was summoned TO the
headwaiter's telephone by the
redoubtable Robert.

are a major sightseeing stop. Il
It is reported that at one OF
these b''rying grounds a visitor
asked the guide what the four
figures kneeling at the base OF

Through his megaphone the

doctors Everett p. Kiefer and

In the acute form. medical
treatment is more satisfactory
Insofar as the chronic variety
is concerned, if there are no

results, operation may be neces-

A diet is given which is low

and fruit, but Is rich in protein
foods such as meat, milk and

Vitamins in large doses are
given over a long period OF time.
In case OF anemia, some type
OF iron preparation is given.
