Big Success Shown by Numbers
of Callers at Philadelphia
Headquarters.
LOCAL MAN TELLS OF
REMARKABLE RELIEF
FROM RHEUMATISM
IN YEAR'S TIME.
The apparent success with which Pro
fessor jnmes M. Munyon, the world
famous health authority, has been meet
ing has started much discussion. Every
street car brings dozens of callers to his
Laboratories at 53d and Jefferson Streets,
Philadelphia. Pa., and every mail brings
thousands of letters from people inquir
ing about Munyon's Famous Health Cult.
Professor Munyon's corps of expert phy
sicians Is kept busy seeing callers and
answering the mall. Peculiar to say,
these physicians prescribe no medicine
at all for 50 per cent, of the callers and
mall Inquiries; health hints, health ad
vice and rules for right living are given
absolutely free. Medical advice and con
suftatlon absolutely free.
Munyon's followers seem to be enor
mous. Those who believe In his theories
seem to think he possesses the most
marvelous powers for the healing of all
sorts of diseases. Munyon, himself,
laughs at this. He says:"The hundreds
of cures which you are hearing about
«very day in Philadelphia are not in any
•way due to my personal skill. It is my
remedies, which represent the combined
brains of the greatest medical specialists
science has ever known, that are doing
the work. I have paid thousands of dol
lars for a single formula and the ex
clusive right to manufacture It. I havo
paid tens of thousands of dollars for oth
ers of my varlouß forms of treatment.
This Is why I get such remarkable re
sults. I have simply bought the best
products of the best brains In the world
and placed this knowledge within the
reach of the general public."
Among Munyon's callers yesterday
were many who were enthusiastic In
their praise of the man. One of these
said: "For six years I suffered with
rheumatism. Mv arms and legs were af
flicted so badly that I could hardly work,
and I could hot raise my arms to my
head. The pain was most severe In the
back, however, and I was In perfect tor
ture. I tried In many ways to get. cured,
or even to secure temporary relief, but
nothing seemed to help me until I was
persuaded by a friend to try Dr. Mun
yon's Uric Acid Course. It was the most
marvelously acting remedy I ever saw,
within a week the pain had most gone
and Inside of a month I considered my
self entirely cured. I can now go out In
the worst weather—cold, wet or any
thing else, and I have not felt any sus
picion of a return of the disease. I think
that every person who has rheumatism
and does not take the Uric Acid Course
Is making a great mistake."
The continuous stream of callers and
mall that comes to Professor James M.
Munyon at his laboratories at 53d and
Jefferson Sts.. Philadelphia. Pa., keeps
Dr. Munyon and his enormous corps of
«xpert physicians busy.

Th*' only charge Munyon makes
Is, when his physicians prescribe his
remedies you pay the retail selling price.
It Is immaterial whether you buy from
him or from the nearest druggist.
To Cheer Her Up.
An old Scotswoman, who had put
herself to considerable inconvenience,
and gone a long way to see a sick
friend, learned on arriving that the
alarming symptoms had subsided.
"An' hoo are ye the day, Mrs. Craw
ford?" she inquired in breathless
anxiety.
"Oh, I'm quite weel noo, thanlc ye,
Mrs. McGregor," was the cheerful an
swer.
"Quite weel!" exclaimed the visitor,
"an' after me haeiu' come sae far to
see ye!"
Was He a Bostonian?
"John," shrieked a woman, "don't
go under that ladder."
But under it John went with a
swoop to the pavement.
"My dear," he said, coming up with
a dollar bill in his hand, "if I hadn't
gone under the ladder that boy would
have beaten me to the currency."

A Japanese Tea.
Affairs Japanesque are always ef
fective and pleasing to one's guests.
To make the rooms as really Japanese
as possible much of the furniture
should be removed, partitioning off
spaces where necessary with Japanese
paper screens. Use flowering shrubs,
almond blossoms (artificial), chrys
anthemums and butterflies suspended
by invisible black threads. The host
ess must bow very low three times,
saying "Konichiwa" when the guests
arrive and "Sayonara" when they
leave. Tea should be served with no
cream; use cups without handles.
Sponge cakes may be served if rice
ones are not obtainable, also pre
served ginger. If something cold is
wished have cherry ice. Those who
assist should wear kimonos.
Have some young girls in Japanese
costumes play "bag ball" (dama). Have
a number of bright-colored bags filled
with dried beans. Each girl tries to
keep as many bags going as possible
without dropping them. Another
amusing game Is played by means of
a long silk scarf, in the center of
which is a loose knot or loop, held
midway between the two players who
hold the scarf and the floor. On one
side of the loop a player sits. On the
other side is a small object, a flower,
a bean bag, even a thimble. The
player who sits by the loop tries to
slip her hand through, grab the small
article and take her hand back again
before those holding the loop can
draw It tight and make her hand
prisoner.
Games for Outdoor Parties.
All this summer outdoor affairs ,
have been very popular and In conse
quence we have all been on the look
out for pastimes suitable for the '
lawn, the shore and the porch. One
called "stagarino" is played by hav
ing two bases opposite each other, say
at either end of the grounds; the
players are on either side with "It"
!n the middle (the latter being cho
sen by drawing lots or the old-time
method of "counting out"). The game
is to run from one goal to the other
without being caught. When once
touched he or she Joins in trying to
catch the others.
"Fire buckets" Is another Jolly
game, so called from the old way of
passing buckets of water from hand
to hand In the volunteer fire compa
nies. The players are formed in two
long lines opposite each other with
captains at the head who have a bas
ket or box filled with all sorts of has
tily collected articles—handkerchiefs,
balls, hats, hair ribbons, pocket knives,
etc., which are to be passed on one
at a time until the end of the line
is reached, the last player, depositing
the objects on the ground beside him,
begins at once to pass them back. The [
line first accomplishing the task wins, j

opposite each other on the ground,
blindfold them and see who can feed
the other a small saucer of rolled
cracker crumbs llrst. This Is a popu
lar game with the birds, for they are
assured a most luxurious meal after
the merry picnickers are gone. For
grown-up young people the game of
"Mystic Thoughts" is a g'ood one, and
if cleverly done is really quite excit
ing. Two persons work together and
arrange their method beforehand.
They tell the company that much of
their success depends upon their con
centration. One of the two then dis
appears out of sight and hearing, the
one remaining asks the circle to defi
nitely settle on a trade and think of
that one thing so steadily that the
right thought may be transmitted to
the absent one, who is then asked to
come back. The co-worker asks a
number of questions such as "It la a
painter?" "No." "Is it a minister?"
"No." "Ia it a blacksmith?" "Yea."
The trick is to mention a profession
Just before the trade agreed upon is
mentioned.
Another mystic stunt Is called
"Black Art." An object is decided
upon and the questioner asks his co
worker all sorts of articles, mention
ing a black object Just before the
right one. It often takes some time
to discover these tricks and some
times the company remain myatifled,
which 18 so much the better, as they
are good for another party.

A Premedi
tated Act
Some new tenants occupied the flat
below the Kings. The occupants of
the IJO Rex apartments were noted
for their sociability. But to all events
and purposes the Swifts were exclu
sive and did not seek other company
than their own.
"I don't understand it at all," con
fided Mrs. Jennings as she seated her
self on Mrs. King's back porch. "The
poor thing is so abused. How her
husband talks to her. He doesn't
talk, he yells, shouts, screams and
shrieks, at her.
"Don't she answer him?" questioned
sympathetic Mrs. King.
"The angrier he gets, the more she
laughs and ev when I've seen her go
out he continues to scold and gibber
Jabber to himself. Once I heard that
man fairly exult because she was suf
fering with a sore throat."
"Probably for the first time in the
twenty years of your existence you'll
know enough to keep quiet," he said.
"Something mysterious about them.
Never a soul calls on them."
"Oh the butcher's boy informed me
they just moved from another town.
I called there one afternoon and
though no one answered the door bell
I could distinctively hear peals of
laughter. Listen to that now."
"Can't you ever stop, you mummy
skull," came the words from a dis
tance in an exasperated tone. "I'll
throw something at you if you utter
another syllable."
"Heavens, if worst comes to worst
and any attempt is made to harm that
exquisite child-like wife, I'll hasten to
her rescue."
Things seemed togo from bad to
worse in apartment No. 2. Strange,
however, when the young couple left
the flat together, they could easily
have been mistaken for a congenial,
happy, care free pair.
The neighbors felt diffident about
calling on Mrs. Swift until Mrs. Jenn
ings appointed herself as committee of
one to make a formal visit. As she
approached the door a masculine voice
could be heard saying:
"I'll not put up with this any long
er. You think that you can swear at
me until eternity, but you're mistaken.
Some day I'll wring your neck."
Mrs. Jennings flew back to her flat
and telephoned the police that a man
was threatening his wife and her life
was endangered, then waited in
breathless horror.
Mr. Swift was amazed to see a big
burly policeman when he opened the
door, razor In hand.
"No, we don't keep a dog," he said
impatiently.
"But you keep a wife, where is
she?" said the policeman, looking at
the razor meaningly.
"My wife is downtown shopping."
"A likely story. Didn't you threaten
to wring her neck a few moments
ago?" "Maybe you found cutting it
easier."
"To wring my wife's neck?" re
peated Mr. Swift in astonishment.
Just then a voice ea.ne from the
dining room saying, "Goto h —. Goto
h—.
"Come with me and I'll introduce
you to the party whose neck I'll wring
the first opportunity, regardless of all
the gossipy neighbors and policeman
in the world," said Mr. Swift.
When the policeman saw an ugly
green parrot winking at him he ut
tered a few choice oaths apologized
for his intrusion.
The neighbors must have been in
formed who the anticipated victim
was, as the next day Mrs. Swift was
surprised at her sudden popularity
and of all the articles most admired
in her home the parrot was most ad
mired.
"Losing the Drop."
"When a man whips out a gun atiA
gets 'the drop' on you, there's noth
ing else to do but throw up your
hands and 'at him have whatever he
wants."
"That's where you fool yourself,"
said the man from the southwest. "If
a man has the nerve he can face a
gun and get away with it—sometimes.
I remember seeing in a border saloon
an Englishman pull a gun on a Mex
ican whom he had caught cheating in
u game cf cards.
" 'You give me back the money
you've won from me or I'll blow your
head off!'
"'You will?' said the Mexican, look
ttig calmly into the muzzle of the
Englishman's revolver. 'Well, you
won't do it just now; that gun's not
loaded.'
"'What's that?' exclaimed the Eng
liehman, turning the revolver toward
hunself to look into the chambers
And on the instant the Mexican drew
a knife and planted it to the hilt in
the Englishman's stomach."
Qualified for Free Trip.
"I want a pass," said a forlorn-look
ing individual as he entered the office
of J. J. Geary, general passenger agent
of the Northwestern Pacific.
"Pass?" queried Geary. "You're not
entitled to a pass. You are not an
employe. Sorry."
"No," answered the individual, "but
here the anti-pass law says free trans
portation can be granted to 'neces
sary caretakers of live stock, poultry
and fruit.' Well, I'm going on this
trip with an aunt that's a hen, there's
your poultry; a girl that's a peach,
there's your fruit, and a nephew that's
a mule, there's your live stock. 1

SCALP HEALED IN FOUR DAYS
"It affords me pleasure to tell of the
good Cutlcura Soap and Ointment
have done my little girl. She had
eczema on the scalp last fall. The
trouble began this way. First a Email
mattery pimple appeared. The pimple
broke and the matter, a watery sub
stance, ran on the skin, forming a hard
crust which was very itchy. It was on
the top of her head, and the crust be
came as large as the palm of my hand.
My doctor eald It was eczema.
"I used a remedy but had no success
with It. I used It nearly two weeks,
then a friend recommended Cutlcura
Soap and Ointment. I used the Cutl
cura Ointment, applied It on the
scalp at night and morning, and in
four days the scalp was all healed, no
sign of crusts or scabs could be seen.
Then I washed her hair with Cutlcura
Soap. She has not had a sign of ec
zema Blnce Cutlcura Soap and Oint
ment cured her, and I shall always
keep them in my house. I can prove
this statement by my neighbor and
family." (Signed) Mrs. H. B. Cooley,

Cement Talk No. 3
Concrete is the
hardened rock-like
product made by using,
some brand of Portland
ce?nent with sand, gravel
or broken stone and
water. The cement is the ma
terial which binds the sand,
gravel or broken stone to
gether; this binding action is
produced by water. The terms
4 4 Cement" and 44 Concrete''
thus have different meanings,
although they are frequently used
interchangeably. While cement is
only one of the materials in concrete,
it is perhaps the most important. To
insure the best results in concrete work,
the highest grade of Portland cement
should be used. The concrete worker
may rest assured that he has the best
cement if he wiJl make certain that the word
UNIVERSAL is printed on each sack of
cement that he buys. Representative deal
