A MIGHTY HEALER
CURES THE SICK BY
MYSTIC POWER.
You Can Know His
Secret Free.
Marvelous New Treatment Which
Conquers All Diseases.
You Can Be Cured at Home ? Generous
Offer of Prof. Adkln.
rUOF. TIIOS. F. AD KIN.
"T consider It a crime to experiment with the
health of the people." says Prof. Thomas F. Ad
kln, President of the Institute of Physicians and
Surgeons. "If I did not know positively and ab
solutely that my new home treatment will cure
every known disease, even when all other meth
ods of treatment fail. I would consider I was
committing a crime to make such a statement to
the public. Nothing Is so precious to a man as
his health?nothing so horrible as nn untimely
grave. Little Ills, If not promptly cured, often
result In obstinate chronic diseases. I believe
that my new discovery, 'Vltaopathy,' Is the most
marvelous treatment ever known, and I Intend to
give Its secrets to the world. I Intend that every
man. woman and child shall know its teachings. I
propose to tell the sick, absolutely free of charge,
how they may be restored to perfect health. 1
would rather be a benefactor to the sick nlBn than
to have the wealth of Cresus."
The above are remarkable words, but those who
know Prof. Adkln and have tried his treatment
can Touch for their absolute truthfulness.
"I was nearly dead with liver and kidney
trouble," writes Prof. John C. Nelson, a well
known geologist and mining engineer, living In
Dayton, Tenn. "The doctors had given me up to
die. You can imagine what a state of mind I was
In. I could not attend to business, and began to
think my days were numbered. I rend the won
derful cures Prof. Adkin bad effected by bis great
discovery, Yitaopatliy, and as a forlorn hope wrote
to him just the condition 1 was in, mentally and
physically. lie gave mo a clear diagnosis of my
case and didn't charge me a cent for it. He pre
scribed n treatment which I began with little or
no faith, but 1 am happy to state that I am now
completely cured and a Arm believer in Vltaopathy.
From uiy own personal experience I believe Prof.
Adkin can alnmst raise the drad."
Mrs. A. J. Slefried, Stowe Creek, O., writes this
grateful letter: "I was affected with a severe case
of Eczema and Nettle Rash, which spread over my
whole body. The Itching and stingiug at times
was almost unendurable. I wrote Prof. Adkin, and

THE COUNTY ROADS.
Report Made to Commissioners of
Their Condition.
In commenting? upon the complaint of
Charles G. Van Horn, concerning the bad
condition of the Benning road ! nsome lo
calities. Col. John Biddle, the Engineer
Commissioner, has called the attention of
the other Commissioners to the generally
bad conditions of most of the roads in
the county.
"The season this year has been exception
al," he says, "and throughout the entire
District macadamized and graveled roads
have, on account of the frost coming up
from below, been greatly damaged and
are in some cases almost impassable. In
spections have been made In each case
that has been called to my attention, and
also many of the roads have been gone
over independently.
"There la, no way that I know of that
temporary improvements can be made short
of corduroying, which would be unsatis
factory and expensive.
"The appropriation available for the re
pair of roads is utterly inadequate to do
the work required to put them In proper
condition. The entire appropriation might
be sunk in one or two roads in their pres
ent state. The only thing to do would seem
to be to wait until they dry out to some
extent, when necessary repairs will be
made as far as the amount of money on
hand for the purpose will permit."
Becomes Sole Owner.
Mr. Charles H. Bond of Boston, who, in
connection with Mr. H. Bradley Davidson
and Mr. John C. Davidson, erected the
Bond building, at the southwest corner of
14th street and New York avenue, has
bought the interest* of the Messrs. David
son in the property and is now the sole
owner. Mr. Bond Intends to retain the
building as an Investment.

Consolidation ofWater Registrar's Of

I , 1
The March meeting,, of the Georgetown
Citizens' Association #as called to order
last evening at 7:30 o'clock, In the hall of
the First Co-operative Building Association,
1823 32d street, by President B. T. Janney.
Dr. Keene officiated as secretary. From the
statement of the treasurer, a balance of
$129 was reported in the treasury.
The amendment to the by-laws, presented
at the last meeting by Mr. A. K. Parrls,
providing for the changing of the meeting
night from the first Friday to the first
Monday of each month was brought up, and
the amendment was adopted. There were
no reports submitted from the executive or
legislative committees. The resignation of
Mr. F. L. Williams was accepted.
The question of the consolidation of the
water registrar's office with that of the tax
office, making one general office, and pro
viding for the payment of the water and
general taxes at one time, was considered.
A number of views were expressed, and
during the discussion the question that
Georgetown is entitled to free water was
discussed. An amendment to the resolution
was offered by Mr. Parrls. to the effect that
the water assessment bill be included and
placed on the general assessment against
property, as per assessment made in May
or November on account of taxis. The reso
lution was designed to have the bills paid
at one and the same time, saving an ad
ditional trip by the property owners to the
District building. The amendment to the
original resolution was approved and re
ferred to the legislative comittee for report.
Mr. George \V. King discussed the option
that was presented to the cities of Wash
ington and Georgetown; that Georgetown
paid an assessment of U) cents per front
foot, while Washington preferred to pay a
yearly tax. I^ater, in 1S75, the water regis
trar made a ruling that there should be no
discrimination, and Georgetown was called
upon for a water tax. This ruling was
contested by Mr. Welch, but the suit went
by default. The matter has never been car
ried into court since.
Mr. Leetch spo?ve of the lack of benefits
received by Georgetown, and Mr. Parrls
referred to the difficulties experienced in
getting members into what is really a
"town meeting." The latter proposed that
the chair appoint a special committee to
see the citizens of the town "and try to in
fuse a patriotic feeling among them." The
proposition was put in the form of a motion
and was passed. The chair announced that
he would name the committee In a few
days.
The Old Reservoir.
After some discussion on the subject, Mr.
Leetch introduced a resolution that the
matter of removing the old reservoir at
32d and U streets be referred to a proper
committee of the association for a report.
Mr. King spoke of the Commissioners' fig
ures as to the amount of appropriations due
Georgetown and the result that the paving
of 32d street, from P street to T street, will
shortly be commenced.
The question of railroad tracks being
placed on the Aqueduct bridge was also
considered. It was stated that for twenty
vears the project of placing tracks on the
bridge had been agitated, but nothing ever
accomplished, and that now while there is
one bill in Congress providing for the erec
tion of an entire new structure, the Com
missioners were only in favor of expending
$90,000 for the purpose of strengthening
the present structure, which, in*the shape
of a bill, will be used in Congress to thwart
any favorable action.
A resolution of th,"e Citizens' Northwest
Suburban Association, providing for the
formation of a.central ?^ody of citizens' as
sociations of the District, was read and
endorsed. lt

Little Economies of the Gas Range.*
By Mary Dawson.
A dozen- New Yorki brides and beginners
In housekeeping banded together about six
months ago to study the gas range and its
possibilities. The purpose of the club was
to learn to use the new ranges In the most
economical and cheapest way through each
member sharing with her friend* any little
economy she mighi discover either by ex
perimentation or chance. The ctub came
together once a month, and each member
read a paper In which she gave her personal
experience. Some of > the points thus
brought out may prove as new and useful
to other beginners as they did to the mem
bers of the club.
The greatest of the gas stove
being tne long fuel-devouring flames of the
oven, much time wss devoted to ways of
employing the oven Are to best advantage.
One young woman brought a Ave minute#
paper advising her friends to serve an en
tire "baked" dinner whenever the weekly
roast of beef or mutton was to be the
piece de resistance of a meat Tto utilise
the heat necessary for cooking the meat,
she suggested potatoes baked In their Jack
ets or In the gravy, escaloped tomatoes or
any other vegetable which lends Itself kind
ly to baking, and an oven pudding. By this
means, She explained, the oven neat was
used for the entire meal, only half as much
gas being ooasume&as it boiled vegetables
and custard desserts were served upon a
roast day.
Another bright member devoted herself
to the study of the possibilities of a single
burner, and brought some practical bints
on the subject as her contribution to club
archives. She found that a good, whole
some and appetizing dinner could be pre

Vast Fortunes Hade in Land
in Washington, N. W.
MILLIONS MORE IN THE NEAR FUTURE
Great demand for lots
two street car lines
assured now?the
"Washingtonian"
gives interviews on
the subject with prop
erty owners and Ful
ton R. Gordon.
WttTTTEN" BY THE "WAS1IINOTONIAN."
Twenty millions would not be an
extravagant figure in stating how
much money has been made in the
increase of land values in Washing
ton northwest, in the direct line of
14th street.
Only a quarter of a century ago
whole miles of land that is now cov
ered with valuable residences were
vacant lots and considered almost
valueless.
Mr. Levi C. Woodbury of the St.
James Hotel was telling me one day
as we drove down town from his
beautiful home in Iowa Circle how
he shot jack rabbits in Dupont Cir
cle twenty years ago, and every in
telligent Washingtonian knows a
dozen stories of people who bought a
piece of property?possibly just one
building lot?five or ten or fifteen
years ago for a song, and now find
their property worth five or ten or
fifteen thousands?sometimes fifty
thousand.
"Buy and build in the Northwest"
is the universal advice of those who
know Washington.
A Banker's Views.
"The northwest is the inevitable
place of real estate expansion and
development," said William Selby of
the Citizens' Bank, as he stood on
the front steps of his home at 3518
13th street, where there is only a
block or two of houses between him
self and the open country, and where
ten years ago there wasn't a house.
"Here's the healthiest part of
Washington, lifted as it is far above
the alleged malaria and the diph
theretic dampness. Here property
grows more valuable every year, and
if I were to advise buying I would |
say go out beyond us here and make
your investment, where you can get
land at not too high a price. Land j
out here in the northwest is abso
lutely certain to double and treble in
value." j
Where the Wise Grow Wealthy.
"The northwest is the region
pared by careful use of a steam cooker,
with but one burner. To do this, she ex
plained, thought must be brought to bear
in selecting foods for the day. "A boiled
fowl, dressed with rice, and ottered with
mashed potatoes and some green vegetable,
such as asparagus or spinach, is a favor
ite combination of mine." she said, "and
will serve as an example of this point in
economy. Fill the lower section of the
cooker with water and bring the water to a
boil; then put In your fowl. When the
meat is within three-quarters or half an
hour of being done fill the other portions of
the cooker wit.h the rice and the vegetable.
The rloe should occupy the middle section
and the vegetable the top. When the meat
is done the rice will be ready to be
wreathed around It, and the vegetable can
be served at the same moment. WTith this
menu I often serve a clear pea soup, which
requires a second burner for a quarter of
an hour or even less. Five minutes' use of
the second burner will make a cream sauce
for the vegetable.
"These two additions use the second
burner for not more than 20 minutes all
told. As a dessert T serve a pie baked to
utilize the oven heat while the breakfast
meat, toast, etc., require the broiling flimes.
Until you have tried continlng the menu to
one burner you will not realize how small
your gas bill can be. if yoai so desire, at the
end of the month. The dinner I mention is
given as an example only. Great variety
can be introduced, using the same plan. A
simple dinner of one meat, one vegetable
or a combination of vegetables may be sup
plemented by a boiled dessert, such as apple
dumplings, bag pudding and the like, all
courses being prepared In the steamer. In
stead of fowl, the foundation of the meal
may be mutton, corned beef or fish."
One of the little housewives discovered
that a most important economical item cen
tered in the simmering burner, and that a
vast deal of gas could be thrown away by a
reckless disregard of it. As soon as any
thing which requires long boiling, such aa
bones for a soup stock, corned beef, old
fowl, etc.. Is brought to boil smartly, she
advised using the simmering flame, which
does the work quite as well and with less
gas.

where our best people build their
homes," said Mr. Arthur C. Moses
of W. B. Moses & Sons, whose firm
has furnished a majority of the fin
est houses in Washington. ''It has
developed faster and more marvel
ously than any boom town of the
west." And he showed me the house
his family had built just a block or
two inside the present residence limit H
and adjacent to the wondrous park
region, which alone would make that
part of Washington attractive be

increase in real estate value and of
perfectly healthy conditions seek
this section."
Close to North Columbia Heights.
"Yes, I have tried to get as far
out into the northwest as any one,''
said Mr. J. Whit Herron, business
manager of The Evening Star,
whose house is at 3536 13th street,
half a block beyond Mr. Selbv's,
"but already they are going beyond
me. In a few years the improvement
line has moved out many blocks,"
and he like all the rest told many
cases of property worth many thou
sands that wasn't considered worth
taxes a few years ago.
The Health Question.
I have consulted several physi
cians about where to live in Wash
ington and they all say "on the high
ground of the northwest. That is
where you can rely on being well, if
climatic conditions govern, for there
is no healthier place in the whole
world," and I went out and tried to
secure the very last house on the
very last block next to vacant fields,
and would have taken it the very
next day, but its owner put up the
price twenty-five per cent over night.
Now my plan is to go way out be
yond the high price region and get
a lot and build, and it was looking
up the other property on Columbia
Heights that I came across the ad
vertisement of North Columbia
Heights, and called on Fulton R.
Gordon, who gave me a book about
North Columbia Heights and a big
map and placed a carriage at my dis
posal to go out and see the property.
"We'll have the Fourteenth street
cars out there in less time than the
homes will be built?we have the
Ninth street line already," he said as
he turned to make out a deed for a
young married couple who had
bought a lot and were asking ques

COLORED NIGHT SCHOOLS.
Program of Closing Exercises Held
Last Night.
The students of the colored night schools
and their friends filled M Street High School
to overflowing last night, the occasion being
the closing exercises of the public night
schools for the term of 1901-02. Mrs. Bet tie
O. Francis, chairman of the committee of
special and Industrial education of the
board of education, presided. An address
was made by Prof. W. S. Montgomery, as
sistant superintendent. Among other
things, the speaker emphasised the advan
tage of living in America, "the land of the
free and the home of the brave," but more
especially in Washington, where the public
school system, as stated recently by Com
missioner Harris of the bureau of educa
tion and generally acknowledged by others.
Is second to that of no other city. He
called attention to the munificence at the
government la establishing and maintain*
tog public night schools, thanked the stu
dents on behalf of the board of education
for their hearty appreciation of such privi
leges as shown by an unprecedented attend
ance during the year and Closed by prophe
sying that the night schools, managed un
der the new condition* would become an
important branch of the general system.
An interesting feature of the evening's
urogram was an old-time spelling match,
participated In by eight pupils from each of
the three schools. Cook. Randall and Ste
vens Mr. Raymond Rlordon, director of
nlfht schools, had them In charge. Cook
finally came off victorious, the victors be
tions about the expense of buildings
questions Mr. Gordon can answer
ten a minute, for he is loaded with
facts, figures and enthusiasm about
the new property he is handling and
has made a deep study of the great
question of suburban development
and home building.
Mr. Gordon is pretty busy these
days. People arc waiting their turn at
his office to get particulars about
North Columbia Heights and buying
up the lots so fast he hardly expects
them to last till April.
He called my attention to the fol
lowing item from The Star of Fri
day:
The Commissioners and the
Street Cars.
"The Commissioners declare that
the proposed extension of 14th street
is one of the most important highway
improvements projected iti the Dis
trict, because they believe the sec
tion through which it passes would
be immediately built up. It is stated
that as soon as the street is opened
the 14th street car line will be ex
tended and attention is called to the
fact that this will give easy access
to the proposed municipal hospital
at the head of 13th street."
Here are several other important
items pertaining to N'orth Columbia
Heights:
Values Jud^d by Building Asso
ciation Loans.
One of our largest city building as
sociations loaned 24c. a square foot
this week to one of our lot purchas
ers on a lot sold for 35c. It is an
ironclad rule with loan associations
to never loan over two-thirds of the
cash value of any property, and they
employed the best judges of real es
tate va'ues to make their loans. This
is the best evidence that we are sell
ing our lots at their lowest cash
value, even though we sell them ou
easy payments.
Prices, Terms and Size of Lots.
Trices, 30 to 35c. a square foot
for 150 lots, the remaining lots being
reserved for city prices?$1.50 to
$2.50 a square foot. Lots 25 to 100
feet front by 75 to 150 feet deep to
15-foot alleys.
Terms, $50 to $100 cash and
$15 to $20 monthly 011 each lot, or
one-third cash, balance 1, 2 and 3
years, 5 per cent off for cash.
Money loaned to build at lowest
rates of interest.
Carriage free to sec the property.
Drop postal, call or 'phone for
new sixteen-page illustrated booklet,
plat, etc.
One of our representatives will bo
on the property all day Sunday.

BUILDING OPERATIONS.
Eight-Story Apartment House in View
?Bow of Fine Dwellings.
The buildings at the southeast corner of
15th and L streets are being cleared oft
find on this site Mr. T. P. Schneider pro
poses to erect an eight-story apartment
house. With a frontage of 57% feet on L.
street and 54 feet on 15th street the new
structure will have somewhat of a tower
effect. The staircase and elevator will be
In the center of the building, and the suites
of rooms will cluster about that center.
Above the roof the usual extension of iho
elevator shaft will form a part of the de
sign of the entire structure, which will be
similar to that of the Sherman apartment
house, which Is on the opposite corner aad
which was also built by Mr. Schneider.
Plans have been made by Mr. F. B. Pyle,
architect, for five houses, which Mr. W. M.
Terrill intends to erect at the corner of
17th and I^owell streets, near Mount Pleas
ant. Roman brick will T>e used In the
fronts of these houses, which will be three
stories in height, and will be heated by
steam. Each house will tontiln nine rooms,
A large addition Is to be made to the
number of houses that have been ere-cted
by the Washington Sanitary Improvement
Company. The new structures will be
thirty-four in number, and will be located
on Bates, L. and Warner streets north
west. The type of house will be similar
to those built by the company, and will
consist of two stories, each containing a
suite of rooms with separate entrances.
The work of building Is to be done under
the direction or Mr. F. B. Pyle.
Building Permits Issued.
