Chinese Have Turtle Cure. i
The old saw about there being
nothing new under 'e sun ap
plies even to l)r. Fried rich Franz
Friedmann's alleged turtle cure
for tuberculosis, since a turtle
preparation has figured as a spec
ific in I lie pharmacopoeia of the
Chinese for more than 2,0lfP years
according to William Smith, the
turtle dealer who supplies the bo- !
Ie| Martinique in New York City, i
Of course the vaccine wrinkle i- j
new neither the ancient nor I lie j
j modern Chinese physicians pre- j
jpariiig their turtle remedy that j
way the approved form of ad- I
ministering il being as a broth.
According to Mr. Smith the
Chinese name for the medicinal
animal is Oum Ten (luoy, and il
was I he fact that so many Chi
nese came to his place of busi
ness Jo buy turtles, and were will
ing to pay almost any price lo
get them, that led him to inves
tigate why there was such a de
mand from the yellow race.
lie found that it was a com
mon practice lo administer tur
tle hrutli not only for all forms
of tuberculosis, but also for stom
ach disorders and kidney trouble.
"Mr. Smith asked his celestial cus
tomers for letters of recommen
dation and testimonials for the
alleged “cure,” and collected an
interesting assortment of docu
ments telling about, the wonderful
results achieved by administering
the lurtle preparation in the dis
eases indicated.
Another point discovered was
that the Chinese, consider the
American turtle far superior med
icinally to its oriental brother,
hence the large demand for those
grown in the United States. In
an interview with one of the high
priests the dealer learned that the
exact method of preparation was
kept a close secret by the Chinese ,
medical fraternity, but that the
herbs possessing medicinal value
were used in brewing the con
coction.

PHOTOGRAPHS.
(By George Fitch.)
A photograph is a picture of a
man as he looks when a photog
rapher has balanced him on a
Stiir backed chair and has aimed
a camera at him.
Photographs are a means of
preserving woman’s good looks
and man’s embarrassment for fu
ture generations. A woman will
look a camera in the eye all day
without, flinching if she is sure
her hair is on straight, but when
Hid ordinary mail is ordered to
have his picture taken he makes
an engagement with the dentist
iu order to escape.,
This is because man thinks In
is modest. But it really is be
cause he has no faith in the abil
ity of the photographer to make
him as handsome as he would like
to be. On the other hand, wo
hian’s faith in the photographer
is only equaled by her faith in
the retoucher.
Photographs are made by ex
posing a glass plate, which is
more sensitive to light than a
trust agreeVnent. After this
plate has been developed il goes
to the hands of a sad-eyed young
woman, who puls it in a retouch
ing frame and works over the
customer’s features and complex
ion. Sin- is sad-eyed because she
knows I ha I no mallei- how shame
lessly she improves on nature, the
woman who sal for the picture
will shake In-r head when she sees
il and say: ‘'Isn't Hint awful?”
Photographs once cost •?? a
dozen and looked like the sitter
regardless of consequences. Now
adays, however, photographs are
taken by artists, who juggle with
lights and shades, and bend the
sitten around this way and that
until artistic angles are secured.
The artist then prints tin- results
on a half acre sheet, mounts il in
a portfolio, signs it in lead pencil
and charges .-jtti apiece for tin
prints. They are worth il, too,
as long as you don’t see tin* orig
inal.
Photographs an* valuable be
cause some day our descendants
will dig them out of the attic, just
as wet have dug out. those of our
ancestors. But while we looked
at the (dd tintypes and said,
"What horrible features the an
cients used to have,” our descend
ants will exclaim with delight ov
er our beauty when they find our
pictures, and they will frame us
and hang us on the wall beside
prints of Helen of Troy and Ap
ollo Belvidere.
Dora Reached S«ward.
.The? Dora arrived at Seward last
night after making the first trip

uty Marshal Goshaw is at the
