HEALTH HINTS.
Many Fatal Cases of CerebrO Spin
Meningitis in Waterbury.

Many Fatal Cases of CerebrO Spinal
Meningitis in Waterbury.
There have been several cases of cere-
bro-spinal meningitis in the community
within the past few days. This is a
disease which occurs sporadically, or in
single and separate cases, and in
epidemics. The disease though durable
is very often fatal. 1t results often from
over exertion, prolonged effort in the
heat, depressing bodily and mental sur
roundings and the misery and squalor of
the large tenement houses in the great
cities. The medical books say that it is
not directly contagious, and probably
not transmitted by clothing or excre-
tions. The fact, however, chat several
cases have occurred in the city should
make people careful with regard to
their sanitary surroundings. There is
nothing so efficacious in battling with
disease as cleanliness and the observance
of those rules laid down for general
good health. The cleanliness, too,
should not be confined to the person,
but should extend to the dwelling, out
houses and the surroundings of the hab-
itation. Gases are coming to the notice
of the board of health every day that
seem incredible in a civilized COM
munity. 1t is time that the people
should wake up to the necessities which
the public health demands.

STATE BOARD OF CONTROL.
Convention OF the Connecticut Division @
the Knights of Columbus.

Convention of the Connecticut Division OF
the Knights of Columbus.
There were nearly one hundred dele
gates present at the convention of the
Connecticut division of the knights of
Columbus at New Haven yesterday.
Supreme knight John j. Phelan of
Bridgeport presided and R, j. Dryer of
Hartford was secretary. The following
officers were elected: State deputy and
Neagle of Waterbury; state treasurer,
|P. G. Mcintyre of New Britain; state
secretary, NJ. F. Baker of Winsted; state
warden, William B. Ahearn of Port
land; state chaplain, Rev P. J. Nc.
Givney of Middletown; state advocate,
Phillip Hendricks of Taftville.
The order has grown so extensively
the last few years that it has spread into
Massachusetts, New York and Rhode
Island. The meeting yesterday was for
the purpose of creating state board of
control and to arrange for a convention
of the other states. The convention
will be held in New Haven in June. In.
stead of the general officers of this state
controlling the order in other states,
individual state boards Will be created
and elections of officers were held in
New York, Massachusetts, and Rhode
Island yesterday.
The state deputy will be a member OF
the grand council, which will be held in
September in New Haven. 1t will be the
duty of the grand council to elect a
supreme grand knight, treasurer and
general secretary, and perform all the
duties now performed by the board OF
governors, which it will supersede.
The terms of the present officials will
hold until their successors are elected in
September.
The meetings of the grand council
will be held annually in September and
the state deputy and past state deputies
will constitute the body. In June OF
each year the state boards will meet in
their respective states and elect officers
and transact any business of the order
within the jurisdiction of their states.

factories are we'll built, well managed
and will soon give employment to about

placed by an elaborate structure, while
our bank buildings and memorial library
will add much to the beauty of the place;
our Protestant churches are much above
the average, two of which will soon be
beautified by the new park, while our
Catholic friends worship in one of the
finest churches in the state; our parish
house is the most complete in the union;
Our cemeteries are Kept in excellent
condition; our roads might be worse,
but we need sewerage system, while our
sidewalks are miserable. The majority

the most charitable people in the state,
and some that are no so charitable. On
the whole we are moral ,semi-religious,
go as you please sort of people.

"Men and Women"


The company presenting "Men and
Women" under the management of
Charles Frohman is his pet organization
and one that he is said to take more
pride in than any of his many excellent
attractions. OF the play, SO much has
been said IN its praise that it seems al
most superfluous to attempt, at the
present time, to add to it's already great
reputation as one of the best American
productions. Mr. Frohman's reputation
for presenting to the public the best of
plays is a guarantee that there will be
nothing lacking in the performance of
"Men and Women" The play will be
presented in this city Friday evening
with all the care and regard to detail
that characterizes the Frohman pro-
auctions.
"The Fast Mall"
"The Fast Mall'd drew a large audience
to the opera house last night. 1t Is one
OF the best spectacular performances
ever placed on the local boards.

Runaway Boys Captured in New Haver

Runaway Boys Captured In New HaVen'
NEW HAVEN, Apr 27.-The police of
this city have in custody two youths who
belong to prominent families in Lake
view, Mass. The boys are held until
until their parents arrive to take charge
of them. The prisoners were seen wan
dering around town yesterday after
noon by Officer Donegan who thought
they were acting in a suspicious man
ner. In the evening they were taken
into custody and said they were looking
for boarding house. They gave their
names as Charles Ell. Long, aged II, and
William G. Nichols, 10, and said they
belonged in Lakeview. They had
in their possession about one hundred
dollars in cash. 1t was learned
that they had been to Kellogg's bicycle
store in the afternoon and purchased a
revolver and several boxes of cartridges,
besides paying $40 down on two BIZ
cycles, which they were to call for
later. The Nichols boy, who had most
of the money, said he worked in a store
in Lakeview and that he earned the
money. The police, however, think it
was stolen from his parents. This
morning Captain Wrinn learned that
Nichols father was postmaster of Lake
view and a prominent man. He noti-
fed him of his sons plight and is ex
pected here this afternoon.

Kelly Says:

Everyone would live to be hundred if
they only took more pains in selecting
what they eat There is no wealth but
life That country is rich which nourishes
the greatest number of human beings
That man is the richest who perfects the
functions of his own life to the utmost
Health is mans birthright. 1t is as natural
to be we'll as to be born. All diseases and
all tendencies to disease are the result of
eating food never intended for the human
family. A break down in health is caused
more by errors in diet than all other causes
put together. Errors in diet are of two
general classes. First, the use of food
unsuited to the organism; second, the par
taking of food in quantities greatly in ex
cess of the needs of the system. 1t is a
welI-known fact that nine-tenths of the
people in this country are suffering from
some unknown complaint or disease. Now
what causes this trouble? Is it caused by
the lack of some nourishment in the food
that we use 2 For an illustration: It was
intended by nature that your teeth should
last as long as your life, but to the CON
trary we find the nine-tenths of the people
loses their teeth before one third OF their
life is spent, and when you lose your teeth
Won lose two thirds of your digestion Or
ganism, and this is the basis of all our
trouble. Now, how can we remedy this I?
The best authority says: If you will feed
Yourself and children on Entire Wheat

qualities which nature intended we should

the tailor who tried to commit suicide
recently, is now a raving maniac, and

The Laurens advertiser. (Laurens, S.C.) 1885-1973, 1893-10-10
Died NJ his Post.

Mr.. Walter Dewitt Odom, Superin-
tendont of the City Schools, died last
Tuesday morning. Mr.. Odom was
elected to tho head of tho Laurens
schools last Spring. During the sum
NOR he vas stricken with fever and had
not recovered when he reached Laurens
about tho middle of September. When
the time came for the opening of tho ses-
sion regardless of his condition he un-
dortook the work to which his sense OF
duty compelled although he was scarce
ly strong enough to stand. His exer-
ton was too mach for his impaired con-
stitution and after a day or two he was
forced to remain in his room. The fever
returned and although he resisted It's at
tack with remarkable courage and hope
tho end como within about u fortnight.
The deceased gentleme6 was not long
enough in Laurens for our people to
learn to known him Familiarity but the
closing days and hoursof his life gave to
us an example Of Christian fortitude
and rare fidelity to a noble calling.
The father OF Mr.. Odom arrived here
a few hours before his death. The re-
mains, accompanied by the. father
and sister who was a teacher in the
schools, were taken to Marlboro, S. g.,
for interment.
