DISCOVERED AT LAST.

What La Grippe RaAlly Is; where II
Originated; How It Is Propageted and
the Way BY Which 1t Can Be Avoided
It has, at last, been discovered and definitely
settled just what La Grippe' is and how it frsI
started.
1t is au injection, low fever, and it originated
in Asia from the wet marshes around Bokhara.
Thence it was taken to Russia by the traders
who came from the crowded bazars of the Asia
tic capital. From Europe it came to America,
and here the germs are to day and the fever
raging.
Being a fever, it arises, as all fevers do, from 8
weakened and run down condition Of the system
hence some people have it and others do not
Some have it severely and others mildly, but In
every case it is due. as oil fever are, to a dis
orderd and W eakened kidney and liver. No man
or woman whose kidneys are in good or strong
condition ever had the grippe, even with the
worst exposure, and no one ever suffered with
it whose kidneys and liver were not out of order.
In writing on this subject, which is one of the most
important now before the people, the New York
Herald gives, in a recent issue, some good ad-
vics. 1t says: '.All classes should avoid rowde
~assemblages, avoid over e~xertion, and see
that their systems are toned up and built up
This is common sense. But it is not always
easy to do. One can easily say ''Tone up the
system. strengthen the kidneys and liver. "-but
how? There has never been but one standard
remedy for strengthening and restorn & these
great organs, and that Is Warmers Safe Cure.
You know that, if you stop to think, If you re-
fresh your memory and recall how many people
who have perhaps told you what it has done for
them. 1t goes directly to the seat Of most phys
ical trouble and all possible grippe. Itstrength-
ems, it renews, it ~fortifies these great organs, and
thus when the germs Of grippe come to the sys-
tem, they are unable to find a lodgment, aud
are killed before they can propagate.
The foregoing facts are fully endorsed by the
most eminent physicians, both abroad and in
America. DR.. Gustave Weber, of the royal
court of Germany; DR.. Hoesch, of Berlin; DR..
William Edward Robson. of the royal navy, Eng
land: DR.. Andrew Wilson, of the Royal So
ciety OF Edinburgh, and most broad minded and
liberal physicians in America have unhesita ting
ly affirmed the same.
You who read this article are in danger Of con-
tracing the grippe, which may leave its painful
and baneful effects upon your system unless you
are in q strong, a healthy and vigorous condition
to day. Ifyou feel languid, restless, irritable,
respondent, if your appetite is uncertain, your
rest broken; If you feel any signs of feverishness
or chilliness you need to take immediate steps
against it. You needsto fortify your kidneys
and liver, and you can do SO absolutely in but
one way and hat is by the aid of the great cure
above named.

cations for membership from Metz Broth
ers, +. d. Corbstt, Louis A. Hemming.
Charles E. Woeckner and j. II. Van
Doren were elected members.
Mr.. james e. Banks said that the
promise of President Feeney that police
men be made TO pay their bills, gave the
merchants such encouragement that now
a committee will wait upon the Police
Commissioners and give the delinquent
policemen = shaking up.
IT was decided to attend the food expo

Association in Madison Square Garden on
the Gath inst. Alderman Salinger's fam

Education in Switzerland.

The system of education In practice
among the Swiss Is enlightened an ar
reaching. Not only are pupils uno a
strict and kindly discipline while& at
school, but they are also made to feel
tina the warning and protecting care of
their tutors is over them whenever they
are outside the fathers house. AS soon
as the child is in the street he has passed
from the circle of his home, and that
moment begins the schools authority.
Regulations, printed on slips and
dropped i'll every house, contain, among
a score of others equally sensible. the fol-
lowing rule relating to outdoor man
ners:-
Delay of any kind between the schol-
ar's home and school is not allowed. No
%whooping, yelling. throwing stones aud
snowballs, teasing children OF ~ridiculing
age and deformity can be endured.
Grown persons shall be met with civility
as they pass. Thus shall honor be re-
fected on the school,"
Once In the class room the pupil Is
taught department as we'll as his three
IRIS" He is told how to walk, stand
and speak, and a blot upon his book and
a smudge On his face are regarded as
equally bad Youths Componion.

is now hauling stone from Snake Hill to the
bridge at the turnpike road. where it Is
loaded into carts and distributed along
the road, which will be macadamized
from the westerly end of the H~ackensack
bridge to the Harrison line. The pave
ment will be aid twelve inches deep and
will cover the roadway to the extreme
edge on both sides. OF late the road has
been almost impossible for heavily
loaded trucks. The bridge crossing the
Hackensack has also been unsafe and Is
very frequently put of repair, sosthat
travel is completely shut off. Truckers
are obliged to use the PLANK road. and
to those In the upper part of Newark and
in Kearny and Harrison this is a great
inconvenience and means a loss of time
and money.
The work of repairing the road will be
prosecuted with vigor, and it will be
ready for use within a few months. The
Legislature passed a bill last week au-
thorizing the erection of a new bridge in
place Of the old toll bridge across the
Hackepsack.
