AUTO SUGGESTION .RESULTS II CUBE FOR ALL DISEASE Former Druggist in France Claims Marvelous Outcome for Methods. SAYS IT ISN’T MIRACLE f Many Wealthy Americans and English Reputed Cured by Treatment. PARlS—Marvelous cures by auto suggestion, unaccompanied by any appeal to religious faith, have been made by Emile Coue, former druggist of Nancy. Coue is president of the Lorraine Society of Applied Psychology. Wealthy Americans and members of the British nobility are among patients who have come to Nancy, not tn the ardent spirit which pilgrims go to Lourdee, but coolly, even incredulous. as one customarily consults a physician—and have gone away miraculously healed. “But it isn’t a miracle at all,” Coue explained to a reporter, “It’s very simple psychology. Psychoanalysis cures mental troubles. Why shouldn't it be ■useful in treatment of physical ailUses Imagination The means which he uses Coue describes as "the auto-suggestlve implantation of an idea In Itself, by Itself. or the use of Influence of the imagination over the moral and physical being.” Among his patients Coue describes a British former M. P., who had asthma. For six or seven nights the patient scarcely could breathe, but at the end of three weeks, under auto-sugges-tion, he went to Chamonix and the day he arrived ascended to an altitude of 6.000 feet without noticing the difference. Another—this time a member of the House of Lords—-had suffered several years of gastro-enteritis. “After his cure I visited him in London.” said Coue. “The old fellow was j eating lobster salad so tough you could have sent it through the mail.” Cured Melancholia The wife of an admiral camo to Coue with a case of melancholia. She wept all the time. The first day she was auto-suggested she merely sniffled. The second day she only sniffled. The third day she smiled. The fourth day she laughed. And the fifth day she cracked a joke, whereupon she was pronounced entirely cured. She was English. The reporter witnessed a "treatment.” Coue gathered his patients, numbering more than a hundred, into a sort of lecture hafi. He order-d three or four of them ■to fold their hands tightly together. r’Think!” he commanded. “Say to ourselves: ‘I cannot open my hands.’ ” After some effort all of them admitted they were powerless to unclasp their hands. “Now think again!” Coue ordered. “Say this time: ‘I can open my hands.’ ” All opened their hands easily. Thought Dominant "This experiment shows thought dominates the action of the muscles,” explained Coue, “and also how thought may paralyze muscular action." Then he told his patients to close their eyes and listen quietly. He began his “suggestion” with the words: “The words which I pronounce must penetrate into your spirit—they rest there always graven, and they will continue to dc you ood even without and further effort on your part.” He concluded by instructing them all to say twenty times each morning and each evening: "Every day, from every point of ' view. I am getting better and better,” and he advocated, for psychological effect, the use of a sort of rosary to count off the twenty times. • JONES SHOWS FEATURE * Popular Midway Attractions Here for Tenth Time.

CHILDREN'S HOME OPENED IN 11. f. $2,000,000 Institution Is World’s Biggest Refugs for Homeless Kiddies. NEW YORK—The world’s biggest home and playhouse for friendless children, the gift of Mr. and Mr*. August Hecksclier, has thrown open its doors on Fifth Ave., between 104th and 105th Sts., for about 130 children. At the same time the Society fqr the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, who will share the building with the Heckscher Foundation for Children, opened its headquarters there. The home, which will represent an outlay of about $2,000,000 In addition to the cost of its site, valued at $1,000,000, will not have Its formal opening until October or November. The greater part of it is entirely finished, however, and all 'of the children entrusted to the care of the Children’s Society will be sent there from now on. The first contingent of children, who were brought from the society's home at Inwood and from the courts, found the new home a veritable dream palace. From the cheerful little reception rooms, decorated with illustrations of fairy stories, to the big openair playground on the roof, overlooking Central Park, there was everythin g to appeal to childish fancy. The home has its own theater, the biggest indoor pool in the world and a gymnasium, in addition to dormitories, class-rooms, infirmary, a model apartment and other things necessary for health, comfort, education and recreation.

At Last!A Way to Beat Old Man Grocery Bill CHICAGO—Open up the Baby Grand and pound out a musical meal! Utopia has arrived, the food tion is settledl No longer will the tired housewife have to bend over hot stove and a stack of unwashed dishes. She may sit down at the piano or put on a record on the “jazz box’’ and you can hear your meal Just | like you taste it now. Dr. Milo Erskine Yergln, head of the Natural Health School is sponsor for the discovery of “ham and” by mfisio. Yergin declares he has worked for years on his musical menu and at last has it perfected. His studio is littered with sheets of music containing the musical recipe for everything from sour to nuts. Yergin’s theory is briefly this: Every chemical element has its counterpart in some note on the chromical scale. Striking that | note on the piano causes the same • physical reaction as though the auditor imbibed of the chemical. “It's easy,” Yergln said, “come down and get my recipes and tonight when your husband comes home, sit down and play him a beef steak and mushroom dinner.

Over 1 $1,600 was dissipated in two months by Peck in his affairs with the women. Mrs. Peck said. “If a woman has her health and is capable of earning her own living, I see no reason why she should acI cept alimony, ’’ was the unusual state- | ment of Mrs. Peck. | “Had there been any children. I might accept money for them, but I would not lower my pride to take anything from a man, from whom I have been separated.” ; TOOK OPOSSUM FOR CAT Wild Creature Confronts Policeman on Patrol and Loses Life.

WOMAN ASSISTANT ATTORNEYGENERAL Mrs. Willebrandt Directly Responsible for Enforcement of Dry Law. WASHINGTON —Assistant Attorney General Willebrandt has a large, airy office on the seventh Hoof of the Department of Justice building in Washington, and *he is almost as busy as her chief. She? Yes, Assistant Attorney General Mabel Walker Willebrandt is a woman, and a little woman of trim, well-proportioned figure, whose determined dark eyes and firmly set lips tell unmistakably of an unshakable opinion when she once makes up her mind. She Is the second woman who has ever filled her high position. She comes from California, and she has a notable record as one of the leading lawyers of the Weatf Like her chief. Assistant Attorney General Willebrandt is unreservedly in favor of law enforcement, and as the prohibition law comes under her immediate supervision, she is bending every atom of power within the department toward the enforcement of the eighteenth amendment. Believes in Prohibition “It Is a little odd how these things work out,” said Mrs. Willebrandt. “My mother was an ardent Women’s Christian Temperance Union pioneer and believed with all her heart in strict prohibition. I always believed In tempearance, but I drew the line at Federal prohibition. And yet when I

work for law enforcement, I began to swing out full and strong for absolute prohibition. I was soon’ conconvinced that any other stand was wholly unsound under the Constitution. You will remember that the Supremo Court has held that the prohibition of liquor of so light an alcoholic content as one-half of 1 per cent is justified under the eighteenth amendment. To permit light wines, socalled, would defeat the purpose of the act. In the history of prohibition legislation in other States this has proven the proper position. lowa had a light j wine and beer statute at one time in its prohibition history. It proved the chief avenue of evasion of the law and was repealed. There is only one logical position, which is absolute prohibition under the avowed intent of the

people expressed in the eighteenth amendment. Citizens Can Help “There is one important thing,” Mrs. Willebrandt continued, “in which the law-abiding citizens of the United the enforcement of the prohibition law. That Is that every law-abiding citizen should help to refute the statement that prohibition is a failure. In my opinion, it is not a failure, and every good citizen should help sweep back the current of flippancy which so many people assume when speaking of States can be of the greatest help in the infringement of the prohibition law. What we need in this country is a public sentiment backing the enforcement of the eighteenth amend-, ment, and therein lies a great opportunity for all good citizens.” RAN FROM POLICE Lucille Bnrson Arrested After Suspicious Actions—Hold Two Others. Lucille Burson, 22, Memphis, Tenn., was arrested on a vagrancy charge when she ran from Sergeant Coleman And Patrolman Martin early today. Ed Burson, her husband, and Adolph Friar, New Orleans, were also held on vagrancy charges. Friar was charged with violating the firearms ordinance.

COUNTRY GIRLS . SEEKJCTRESS Children Make Trip to New York in Hopes of Meeting Pearl White. NEW YORK—Two pretty little country girls, all dressed up, powdered and with their hair bobbed, came to New York to meet Pearl White. They searched Times Square for their movie favorite, but there was no sign of PearL “Can you help us find Pearl White?" they asked a motherly-looking woman. The woman asked them their names and they said they were Mary Sotnick, 13 years old, of Taftville, Conn., and Laura Dion, 11 years old, also of Taftville. To Patrolman Charles Nickel they confided that they both played the violin “expertly,” and were anxious to meet Pearl White. When told that Pearl White was not In town —in fact, was in Europe—they looked as If they didn’t care whether they stayed in New York or went back to Taftville. Both girls were in the eighth grade in school last term, they said. They i saved their pennies and ran errands j all summer, finally getting between them $9, with which they set out for New York Wednesday night on the New London boat. Their fare cost them $7 and they had little left when they reached Peck Slip yesterday morning. It took most of the balance of their funds to buy breakfast and, then, with their suitcases containing pretty little things to wear, they began tramping through the streets In search of Pearl White. “What is that?” they asked the pa-
