BERLIN. Oct. 24—When the Ham

algiluat this morning the body of a
man who had been nhot through the
right t**mpla woe found In one of the
compartment© which he had occupied
alone. A revolver waa lying cloae at
hand.
The body waa identified by papers
aa that of Sllaa C. MacFkrland. of
Iowa, the American consul general at
large for the European district. Among
the papers was hla wlfe'n address In
Berlin. It waa evident that Consul
McFarland committed suicide.
The atktlon muster telegraphed to
Mrs. McFarMnd that her husband had
been badly Injured, and aha and her
daughter proceeded to Ludwlgsluit this
afternoon but later returned to Ber
lin to makd arrangements for
burial.
Mr*. McFarlnnd waa unabla to glre
any reason for tha suicide, except that
her husband had worried greatly of
late. His leg had been broken twice
In recent year* and he was aonaltlvo to
fatigue. He uppeared unequal to the
constant A raveling, which hla office
demanded. Mrs. McFarland received
a telegram from her husband In the
early forenoon urrunging to meet her
st Lunch.
Consul (U-nor.'il Thftrkura has a©nt
a deputy to Ludwlgslust to taka
charge of the body.

RICHMOND, Va., Oct. 14—"Mr.

‘There's a big difference In names
after all despite what Shakespeare
says of tho rose and It# odor. You
know the old variety halls weren't con
sidered nice places at all. They did
not have as good standing ns the dime
museums have now, for no women
would go to them at all. Tho audiences
were solely of them and boys, i knew

glvlnfi free admission to women who
wore accompanied by men. Each man
could have as many women as he
wished with him. The result was sur
prising. At soon as the first ones at

ing thev could object to—nothing to
make them blush—they spread the
news, and that brought others. Fami

DOCTOR OF SHAKESPEARE’S pAY
Had Curious Prejudice Concerninq
■’ Different Kinds of Food,
Medicine l n the days of Shakespeare
Had not-risen to Its present rank among
thff science: the art of curing waa
largely -empirical. Nevertheless, thee
were men in those times folio wing.the
profession who not only possessed
learning but who were wise and thought
much for themselves.
An account Is given In the Johns Hop
kins Bulletin of an Interesting medical
personage of Shakespeare's day. Dr.
Thomas Muffet. He was born In 1551
and died in 1604. He received his edu
cation partly in England and partly
abroad., His degree of medicine was
conferred upon him at Basle In 1578,
and for several years he traveled over
Europe, making a close study of med
icine. Upon his return he lived In
London and built up a good practice.
In 1588 ho wa.s made a fellow of tha
Royal College Of Physicians. Among
tho people he knew we re Tycho Brahe
and Blr Francis Drake.
Muffet was one of the earliest of the
chemical sect In England, and. with
John Herter. was one of Its chief expo
nents. He was one of tho first to In
troduce tho use of chemical mediolnes
into England, and his first publica
tion was a defense of tho chemical
Wrote Book on Health.
Hla own moot important contribution
to literature waa a book upon health
In which he gave directions for the
preparation of food. The book shows
that the matter of diet In relation to
the prolongation of life was consid
ered by physicians almost as Impor
tant as It la at present.
The status of dietetics In his day
seems to have been much aa It la now
as he aays:
"So now in our dales the name
Diet scema but a scarecrow to the
unwlaer sort, who think It best diet,
keeping no diet at all saying (as Will
Homers said to John Ralnsford) drink
wine and have the gout, drink no wine
and have it too." *
Muffet waa Interested In medical
question of the value of odors 1n medi
cal treatment and thought that they
had considerable value, as he states:
"The very smell of physlck cure*
many."
Hit Choice of Foods.
The Idea of keeping off Infections by
the use of odoroUo drugs Is still preva
lent. On tho choice of foods and the
abnormal articles of diet the author
gives a great number of Interesting, al
beit untrustworthy accounts. He clas-.
rifles meats and other foods Into four
degrees, according to their heat and
moisture. Meats hot further than the
second degree, he says, are reckoned
by physicians to be rather medicine
than meat. Tho following stories need
no comment:
"Yea. myself have known a young
Malde, of an exctedlng moist and cold
complexion, whose meat for two years
was chiefly pepper, wherewith another
would have been consumed though she
was nourished for It Is hot In the third
degrees nnd moist In the fourt degree.
"Mccaenaa coveted the meat of
asses foals, whereby the whole race of
as*en had been distinguished, but he
died In good hour."
Against Over-Eating.
Dr. Muffet Issues a special caution
against over-eating, and of tho quan
tity of meats at table, he aays;
"Of thla crua was Maximus tha em-
.peror (Like our old Abbey Lubbers)
ate till he sweat: yea 8abelllcus af-
flrinethtliat his ona day's sweat gath
ered up In goblets, did amount to tho
measure of six ta<fiarJaa.
"And though Aurelianua tho- em
peror fed moderately himself, yot he
exceedingly loved and honored a grsat
Gourmand, who usually St a meal did
eat a Hogg, two weathers, and a whole
brawn, drinking upon it a whole firkin
of wine poured, down his threat
through a funnel.
"Clodlnus Albtnus (commander of
the Romans ln Franca) Is registered tb
have oaten at ona sitting 500 figs, 100
peachns, 10 musk melons, 20 pound
weight of Raisins of the Hun, 100
snltes, 10 capons and 150 great oys
ters."
Time Spent at 'Meals.
How much time should one spend at
meals? The doctor tells the following:
"SwUrlgalus, Duka of Llthuanua. never
sat fewer than six hours at dinner, and
as many-at supper, from whom I think
the custom of long sitting was derived
to Denmark, for thars I remember I
sat with Frederick. King of Denmark,
seven or eight houra together at one
maul. Of long sitters at table was
Hugutlo Fttglolanus, who (as Petrarch
reporteth) lost both the city of Pisa
and Lukes at one sitting because no
would not arise (although a true atsrm
was given) to repel the enemy till his
dinner was fully ended, which was
usually protneted two or three hours."
Rather curiously. Dr. Muffet strongly
advocated milk and exits for tuberculo
sis. He says: "There are few diseases to
which milk Is not offensive, being taken
Inwardly, except the consumption of t
S.S.S.
FOR
RHEUMATISM
_Rheumatism is caused by excess of uric acid in the blood, which
. importance. This uric ocid causes uu inflamed and irritated
condition of the blood, and the circulation instead of nourishing the different
portion, of the body, continually deposits into the nerves, muscles, tissues
and joints, the irritating, pain-producing tfdd with which it is filled. Rheu.
matisra can only be cured by a thorough cleansing of the blood, and this is
just what S. S. S. does. It goes down into the circulation, and by neutral-
king the uric acid and driving it from the blood, effectually and surely
remove* the cause. S. S. S. strengthens and invigorates the blood so that
instead of a weak, sour stream, earning pain and agony thoughout the sys
tem, It becomes an invigorating, nourishing fluid, lurnishing health and
vigor to every part of the body and relieving the suffering caused by this
disease. S. S. S. being a purely vegetable blood purifier, is the surest and
safest cure for Rheumatism in any of its forms. Book on Rheumatism and

How the Man Lost In the Woods May
Get Warm.
Wo, must make our traveler who la
lost .In the woods as cdmfortsblo as pos
sible while' waiting for the sky to clear.
Let him first find a place as well shel
tered as possible. A fallen tree will best
serve him. But before deciding on hla
camping place, he should look about to
see that there Is plenty of dead wood.
Then, from an area of six feet square,
beside the fallen tree, he must clear
away the snow, using his feet If nothing
else Is available, and In the space thus
cleared, kindle n. fire of wrch bark and
dry wood, piling on tha wood until tha
Are entirely covers the cleared ground.
While there ts a good fire burning, ho
may gather a largo number of boughs of
spruce, balsam, or cedar. If these are
not to bo had. Uie best substitute for
bed-making Is brush. When several
a~mfute huve been gathered, and placed
near the fire to extract the frost, let him
begin gathering dry and dead wood, and
not until ho thinks he had enough for
two nights can he be reasonably sura of
haring a sufficient quantity for one
night. After the fire baa been burning
about an hour, all may ha cleared away.
Ths ground will be found dry and. quite
.warm* Than this apace is to bs covered
with the gathered boughs and on tha
leeward side of tha bed thus prepared,
a fire should ba built This fire ought
not to be large, as a draft would ba
created, and. moreover, the smoke would .
be annoying to the sleeper. He Is now
assured of warmth sufficient to pnaiiiM
him from freezing. —Th© Outli
