Louis XVI. had a pasnion for the

over his private library he had s forge,
two anvils and a vast number <>f Iron
tools, together wit|) all kind* of lock*,

and elaborate variety It wna here
that the king would conceal himself
from the queen and the court to file
and forge with the InfHiiiotis <!amln.
who taught him the art of lockmaklng.
It is said that Oamln while teaching
the king his trade took upon himself
the tone anil authority of a master,
aud, according to this same master,
the king was gjod. forbearing. timid,
inquisitive and addicted to sleep. I.oul*
bad also a great puwtlon for timepieces,

Tbe eye must certainly be the road
to health when we bear of tbe great
cures that are performed through tbe
medium of the eye. It only proves
what science has done. Here in
Wichita we see these cures performed
everyday. Diseases that have baffled
tbe greatest physicians ire conquered
by this method of treating through
tbe eyes, sucb as consumption,
Bright s disease, diabetes, epileptic
fits, terious stomach trouble, Lervous
troublet ot the veiy worst Kind such
as nervous prostratli p, and other ser-
ious troubles, are all cured by tbis
treatment through the eyes. Tbe
principal thing about this treatment
Is, when persons are cured tbey re
main so.
We will relate a fewtxperiences:
Mr. John Fennel, of Wichita, who
is well Kaown in Sedgw'.iK county,
suffered for * numbtr of years with
rheumatism and was laid up about
every three months Mr.Fennel suf-
fered with great pair: be always had,
as he supposed, employed the best
physicians. Finally, when he went to
bed three years ago last July, the at-
tending physicians gave him the very
best he Knew, but fold Mrs Fennel
that her husband would never be able
to be up again.
Tben Prof Samuels was sent for,
and wbe/i he arrived at tbe Fennel
residence, Mr. Fennel was In misery.
Plenty ot drugs were there bui
Prof. Samuels' threw them away and
began adminis ering bis treatment
through tbe eyes.
In a few days Mr. Fennel was feel-
ing so much better, and in about ten
d^ys he came to town and happened
to meet the doctor he had always em-
ployed, on tbe street This doctor,
(wnose name we withhold from thr
public) was surprised, and asK d Mr.
Fennel how be napnened to be up,
and be replied that he bad sect for
Prof. Samuels and that was why be
was up again. This doctor said*. "You
do not mean to tell me thu you have
employed that quaiK?"' and Mr. Fen
nel answered: "Any man who calls
Prof. Samuels a quae* in my pret-
ence, either he O'I will get licked.'
Tbe doctor walked awav.
The trouble with people is that
they form their opinion and it Is hard
to change them. True is tne satint:
"Wise people always change accord-
ing to the progress of the world, bui
fools never do "
We will relate another remarkable
cast:
On May , l#0fl, Mr. J A B.wcwal-
ter, supeiin'endent of the Baden
flouring trills of Winfleld, Kan .called
on Prof. Samuels to be treated for
catarrh of the s-.omach. Mr. B ok-
waiter bad suff.red lor twenty two
i years. Ht bad tried anything and
i everything to be relieved, as he savs
|ne employed the bet doctors, trltd
all the be>t spring waters, a>i kinds
! of patent medicines, and all to no
avail. Finally he thought it would
I do no harm to try Prof. Samuels'
treatment through the eves, and be
was urprlsed in a snoi t tine at tbe
