lib. It has no resemblance to the city I bad
upposcd it was. Tbero was once a Berlin
which I would have known from descriptions
m books the Berlin of the last century and
the beginning of the present ono ; a dingy
city In a marsh , with rougb streets , muddy
and lantern-lighted , dividing suaight rows
of ugly houses all alike , compacted into
blocks as srjuaro and plain and uniform and
monotonous and serious as so > raany dry
goods boxes. But that Berlin lias disap
peared totally aad loft no sign. The bulk of
the Berlin of today has about it no sugges
tion of its fotraor self. It Is a now city , the
newest I have ever seen. Chicago would
Boom venerable beside It , for there are many
old loaning districts In Chicago , but not
many in Berlin. The main mass of the city
looks as if It bad been built last \vook , the
rest of it has a Just perceptibly graver tone ,
and looks as if it might bo six or eight
months old.
The next feature that birikos ono is the
Apaclousuoss , tbo roominess of the city.
Berlin Is not merely a city of widn streets ,
it Is the city of wide streets , "Untcr don
Linden" is three streets in ono ; tlio 1'ots-
dumorstrasso is bordered on both slues by
sldowalKs which are themselves wider than

ion once moro.
The next feature that strikes ono is the
Btralghtucss of the streets. A result of this
arrangement is that at night Berlin is au m-
plrlng bight to MO. U as and the electric
*
light are employed with a wasteful liberal
ity , and sowherever ono goes , tie has always
. double ' ranks of brilliant lights stretching
inrdo'wn Into the night on every hand , with
lioro ami there a wldu and splcuutd constella-
- tlon of them spread out ever an Inturvon lug
f "platz , " und between the interminable
double procession of street lamps ono tins the
, swarming and darling cab lamps , a lively
, and pretty addition to the line spectacle , for
< "thay counterfeit the rush a'ld confusion and
sparkle of an Invasion of llrulltcs.
Compared with Ctilvai-
There Is ono other noticoab'.o feature the
absolutely level surface of the tlto of Berlin
Berlin Is the Kurope&a Chicago. Tno two
citloo have about the same population. I can
not speak In exact terms , because I only
know what Chicago's population was weou
before last ; but at that time It was about a
million and a dolt.
But now ( he parallels fail. Only parts of
Chicago dio'statoly and beautiful , whereas
nil of Berlin Is stately and substantial , and It
is not morelv In parts , but uniformly beauti
ful. There are buildings in Chicago that are
architecturally rlncr than any In Berlin , I
think , but what I have lust said above la still
true. These two flat cities would lead the
world for phenomenal good health If London
was out of tbo war. As It is , London lead *
toy polut or two. Berlin' * death rain is only
nlnoteou in 1,000. Fourteen years upo tbo
rate was a third Ulgborl
Berlin U a surprise in a imtltltudo of ways ,
to spjalt strongly and bo oxucU U seem * to
be the most provorned city in the world , but
ono must admit that it also seems to be the
best governed. Method and system
ni'o obsorvublo on every hand.
And it is not method and system
on paper and there an end it is method
and system in practice. It has a rule for
everything nnd puts the rule in force acainst
the poor and the powerful alike , without
favor or prejudice. There ro several taxes ,
and they nro collected quarterly ; they uro
not merely levied , they uro collected every
timo. This makes light taxvs. Hero the
police keep coming , calmly a\d : patiently ,
until you pay your tax. They charge you
5 or 10 rents per visit after the first call. By
experiment you will Hnd that they will pres
ently collect that money.
1'orsoiml Particulars to He Provided.
In ono respect the 1,500.000 of Berlin's
population are like a family. The head of
this largo family knows the numasorits
several members and where the said members
are located , and when and where they wcro
born , and what they do for a living , and
what their religious brand is. Whoever
comes to Berlin must lurnlsU these partic
ulars to the police immediately ; moreover , if
ho knows how long ho Is going to stay ho
must say so. If ho takes a house ho will bo
taxed on bis rent and taxed also on his in
come , llo will not bo asked what his income -
como is , and so bo may save some lies for
homo consumption. The police will estimate
his income from the house rout ho pays and
tax him on that basis.
Tbo calm , quiet , courteous , cussed persist
ence of the police is the most admirable
thing I have encountered on this sldo. They
undertook to persuade me to sand and got u
passporLfor a Swiss maid whom wo had
brought with us. and at the end of six weeks
of palleut , tranquil , angelic dailv effort they
succeeded.- was not intending to give them
trouble , but I was lazy and I thought they
would got tired. Meanwhile they probably
thought I would bo the ono. It turned out
Just so.
Ono Is not allowed to build unstable , un
safe , or unsightly houses iu Berlin. The re
sult is this comely and conspicuously stately
city , with its security from contlugrratlous
and breakdowns. It is built of architectural
Gibraltar * . The building commisslouorj In
spect while the building is going up. It has
been found that this is butter than to wait
till it fulls down. These people are full of
whims.
bniiltiitlou Srluntlllciilly Systematic ,
Ono Is not allowed to cram poor folks into
cramped and dirty tenement houses. Kaoh
Individual must have Just so many cubic feet
of room fipaco , und sanitary Inspections are
systematic und frequent.
There uru abundance of newspapers in Ber
lin , and thera was also a newsboy , but he
died. At intervals of half a mile on the tnor-
oughfaros there are booths , and It is at tucsu
that you buy your papers. There are plenty
ot theaters , but they do not advertise In a
loud way , Tncrn are no big posters of any
kind , and the display of vast typo and pic
tures of actors und performance framed on a
bl scnlo und done in rainbow colors is n
thing unknown. Unsightly things' are for
bidden hero ; Berlin is a rust to the ovo.
And yet the sauntcrer can easily Hnd out
what Is going on at the theaters. All ever
the city in short distances apart there are
neat round pillar * eighteen feet hlgu and
about as thick as a hogshead , and on tbeso
the llttlo black and white theater bills und
other notices are pasted. One generally linds
a group around each pillar rending these
thlngi. There are plenty of things in Berlin
worth Imparting to America. It Is these that
I hnvo particularly wished to make a note of.
When Buffalo Bill was hero his biggest
poster was probably not larger than the top
of an ordinary trunk.
There Is u multiplicity of clean and comfortable -
fortablo horse car * , but whenever you think
you know where a car is going to , you bad
better stop ashore because that oar is not go
ing to that place at all. Tbo car routes are
marvelously intricate , and often the drivers
get lost and are not heard of for years.
Braiua are of no value when , you nro trying
to navigate Berlin In a borso car. Whou tbo
ablest of Brooklyn's editors ivas hero on u
visit , ho took a hone car in the early morn
ing and were it out try ing to gat to a point In
the ceuter of the city. Ho was on board all
day and spent many dollars In faros and then
did not arrlvo at the place which bo had
i tar ted la go to. This is tbo most thorough
way In which to see Berlin , but it U also the
most expeusivQ.
Street < ; ur JU < culutlons.
But tboro are excellent features about tbo
car ysteai , nevertheless. Th 5 oar will not
stop lor.von to got ou or off except at certain
places a block or two apart , whuro there i a
sign to indicate that that is a halting station.
This system saves many bones. There are
twenty places inside the car ; when those
seats are illleii no moro can enter. Four or llvo
persons may stand on each platform -tho law
decrees the number and when these standIng -
Ing places are all occupied tbo next applicant
Is refused. As th ro is no crowding , and as
no rowaylsm is allowed , women stand on the
platform's as well as mon. They otten stand
there when there are vucant seats inside , for
these places are comfortable , the're boinglittlc
or no jolting. A native tolls mo that when
tbo first car was put on , thirty or forty years
ago , the public had such n terror of it that
they didn't feel safe inside of it or outside
either. They made the company keep a man
at every crossing with a ivd ttag in his hand.
Nobody would travel in tbo car except con
victs on the way to the gallows. Ttils made
business in only ono direction , and the car
bad to go back light. To save the company
the city government transferred the convict
cemetery to the other end of the line. This
made trattlc in both directions and kept the
company from going under. 'Ibis ' sounds like
some of the information which traveling for
eigners are furnished with in America. To
mv mind it has a doubtful ring about it.
The Hrst-olass cab is neat and .trim , and
has leather cushioned Boats and a swift
horse. The second class cab is on ugly and
lubberly vehicle , nnd is always old. It seems
n strange thing that they havo. never built
any now ones. Still , if such a thing were
done everybody that had time to Hock would
Hock to see it. and that would mo.ko a crowd ,
and the police do not like orovyds and dis
order hero. If there wnro an earthquake in
Berlin the police would take charge of it and
conduct it in that sort of orderly way that
would makoyou think it was a prayer meet
ing. That is what an earthquake generally
ends in , but this ono would bo different from
these others ; it would ba kind of .soft and
self-contained , Hue a republican praying for
a mugwump.
StrroU uiiil Slrrot ( Hoimlng.
The streets are very clean. They are kept
bo not by prayer and talk and the other
American methods , but oy daily and hourly
work with scraucrs aud brooms ; and when
an asphalted street has been tidily scraped
after a , rain or a light snowfall , they scatter
clean sand ever it. This Haves some of the
horses from falling down. In fact this Is a
city government which scorns to stop at no
expense when ) the public convenience , com
fort and health uro concerned except in ono
detail. That is the naming of tbostreets
and the numbering of the bouses. Seme-
times the name of a street will cbunge In the
mlddl'i of a block. You \vill , not Hnd it out
till you got to the next corner und discover
the now uamo on the wall , and of course you
don't know just whim the change happened.
The names are plainly limweu on the cor-
nnrs on all corners there are no exceptions.
But the numbering of the houses there has
never buen anything like It since original
chaos. The numbers run up onu side or the
street and down the other. Thut Is endur
able , but the rest isn't. Tboy often use ono
number for tureo or four bouses , and some
times they put the number on onlyono ot the
houses and lot you guess 0,1 tbo others. A
result of this syutemlois system is that when
you are at No , 1 in a street you havcu't any
idea how far It may bo to No. 150 ; it may bo
only fclx or eight blocks , it may boa couple
or miles.
'I hero are a good many suicides in Berlin ;
I have seen six reported in a single day.
There is always a deal of learned and labor

To Whom it may Concern :
This is to certify that I have boon a
constant sutYcror for many years with
catarrh , aslluna and bronchial affec
tions of the throat , and tried all the
patent medicines and remedies I overheard
heard of , but with no success. I treated
with doctors in various parts of the
country , but none of thorn could do mo
any good further than giving mo short
temporary relief. I suffered night and
day , and continued ) o grow worse not
withstanding all the medicine I had
taken. I had almost given up my rase
as hopeless .when I was informed by a
Iricnd of Dr. ( , ' . Gco Wo , the Chinese
doctor , and advised to go and see him in
the hope of getting relief at loa t , if not
a permanent ciu-o lor my trouble. I was
slow in making up my mind to make
such a radical Change in my treatment ,
as I know a trial with the Chinese doc
tor would bring ftio. but I finally con-
i.-luiiod to give \\\h\a. \ \ trial , so I called at
his oll'co with that intention. I found
the doctor a cloyoj' , , entertaining gent lo-
man , thoroughly 'posted on my .condi
tion , and it took only a voiv short time i
to coinviuco mo'thUt ho was'tho party I
was so long ill scitroh of. Ho told mo
' '
my case was cu'r.ca'blc.and that ho could
euro inc. and prepared me a special
treatment to suit1 Jny condition , and in
two weeks I was , KO much bettor Umt [
had the fullest cnnlidonco in the doctor's
tlio table of the two'heroos of the occasion ,
although I was not really learned enough to
deserve it. Indeed there was u pleasant
strangeness In kcii ! In such company. Yut
tlioi-o was nothltis embarrassing about it ,
because loaded men and cmnty ones loot :
about alilto. I know that to that multitude
there 1 was a professor. U required but little -
tlo art to catch the ways and attitudes of
thoio men and imitate them , and-I hnd no
dinicultv in Ionising as much ltlo a prof ossor
as anybody thoro.
An Inspiring Scene.
Wo arrived early , so early that only Pro
fessors Virchow and Holmlioltz ntiil a dozen
guests of the special tables wcro iihciitl of
us , and SO'J or100 students. It was said that
there rvci-o 4,000 , mon present. It was a most
animated scene.thcro is no doubt about that :
it , was u stupendous beehive. At each end of
each table stood a corps student in the uni
form of bis corps. Kach corps lias a uniform
of its own. and all are of rich material , bril
liant in color and e.toeodiiiKly plctutosquo ;
for they are survivals of tbe'vanlshod cos-
tiimos of Jho middle ages , and they repro
duce for us the time when meu were beauti
ful to look at. The student who stood guard
at our cud of the table was of grave counte
nance and Kroat frame and grace of form ,
and ho was doubtless an accurate reproduc
tion , clothes and all , of some ancestor at bis
two or tnrco couturiei ape a rooroduction
us far as the outside , tbo animal man , goes , I
moan.
As I sav , the place was crowded. Tno
nearest aisle was packed with students
standing tin , and they made a fence which
shut off .ho rest of the house from viovv. As
far down this fence as you could ! > eo all these
wholesome younp luces were turned In ono
direction , all iboso intent and woi-blilping
eyes were centered upon ouo spot the place
where Virchow and Holmholtz sat. Mho
boys seemed lo.st to everything , unconscious
of their own existence. They devoured iboso
two Intellectual giants with their own o.ves ,
they feasted upon them , and the worship
that was in their hearts shone iu their faces.
It seemed to mo that I would rather bo
Hooded with a jilory like that. Instinct with
sincerity , innocent of self-3ccKtug , than win
a hundred battles and break u million hearts.
'I'iiero was a Olg muu of beer in frout of
each of us , and moro to como when u anted.
Now the performance begun. The con
cealed band piaycd. a piece of martial niUblu ;
then there was u pause. The students on
the platform rasa to iiiclr foot ; the middle
ono RUVO a toast to the emperor , than all the
house rose , muiis In liaod. At the call "One,1
two , three ! " all glasses were drained and
then brought down with a slam on the tables
in unison. Tho. y ulV was as goou au Imita
tion of thunder uj/Iolm've ever hoard. Prom
now on , during an Hour , there was singing

The songs were , , jairrng | and the Immense
putpour from young life and yourg .limns ,

beer mugs gratlu'Mly , worked u body up to
what seemed tna liyit possible summit of ox-

To Whom it may Conc.ern :
I have been a long time sufferer with
stomach trouble and general debility
and could Hud no relief from any of the
doctors I treated with. I was so b'idly
run down that I thouirht it impossible to
with the speeches ot welcome , delivered by
two .students , and the replies made by Profs.
Virchow and UolmhoUz.
Virchow has long been a member of the
city government of I3orlin. Ho works as
hard for the city as does any other Berlin
aldormnn , nnd pots the samn pay nothing. I
don't know that wo in America could ven
ture to ask our most illustrious citizen to
servo on a Board of Aldermen , nnd if wo
might venture it I am not positively sure
that wo could elect him. But hero the
municipal system is such that the best ir.cn
in the city consider it an honor to serve gratis
as aldoi-mon , and the people have the good
sense to prefer thee mon und to elect tncm
year after year. As a result , Berlin is a
thoroughly well governed city. It is a free
city ; its affairs are not meddled with by the
state : they are managed by its own citizens ,
nnd nftcr methods of their own devising.

To Whom it May Oo'ncorn :
1 have boon a suiloror for many years
and have tried a great many doctor's and
patent medicines , but they never guvo
me much help. The doctors pronounced
my ease Height's disease and hopeless.
I BUiTored a great deal and got no relief
until , at the advice of a friend , I wont to
see Dr. C. Gee Wo , the Chinese doctor
of Omaha , I took hiy medicine for two
months and am completely cured.
1 ewe my cure to the Chinese doctor
and am thankful to him for it. Very
truly , A. O. MOGUL , Oakland , Nob.
Mrs. P. C. Pershing says : Knowing
that my life has boon spared through the
si < ill of Dr. C. GcoVo , the Chinese Phy-
pii'inn I t-ilco In
, great ploitsnro recom
mending him nnd his methods of troat-
niQiit to nil who may bo sick or diseased.
My chief dllllcnUy was in weak lungs ,
from which I htivo sulToiod from the
time I was IB years old , A year ago I
contracted u siworo eold , aflor which I
had hemorrhage of the lungs nnd a very
had cough.
"I trot no relief until T called on Dr.
C. Goo Wo. After ton days' treatment
1 noticed iv decided improvement In my
condition , and it was only n short limb
until I felt assured that my health could
ho fully restored. I had neuralgia
through my unliro system , I nUo had
catarrh , stomach and heart trouble , and
always had iv very weak bacj ; .
"I have boon treated by many lending
doctors , but never received moro than
temporary relief. I now enjoy better
health than for many years , and lean
say in justice to Dr. C. Gee Wo that ho
has done for mo what other physicians
said never could bo done.
'During mv visits to the doctor's olllco
I have witnessed t > omo wonderful cures.
Patients who wore given up to die were
cured bv him and completely restored
to health.
' 'I have taken n number of my friends
to Dr. C. Gee Wo's olllco for treatment ,
and all of them are loud in their praise
of his skill and ability in treating their
cases.
' I can appreciate n doctor who can
euro lung trouble.
"I will give further information to anyone
ono calling tit my resilience , 211C Cali
