BROOKLYN PHYSICIANS PAPER GRE
ATES DISTURBANCE IN TUBER-
CULOSIS CONGRESS-

Or. NJ r. Leverson. Of Brooklyn. created a dis
turbance at the closing session OF the American
tuberculosis Congress yesterday afternoon. by
attacking the medical profession generally.
lie read a paper In which he denied that there
were any infectious diseases: said smallpox was
not contagious and certainly not tuberculosis.
He sharply condemned vaccination. said the
antI-spitting ordinance was stupidity and folly.
and ended by declaring that infection was a
modern superstition kept up by the "regu r
pi.--'-ians. Who always the lookout for
power. place and pelf." He argued that the rea.
cause Of the spread OF disease was not infection.
but fear
Medicine Is great humbug," he said. II
know it IS called a science. but 1t is nothing like
are not charlatans."
This paper created a disturbance, and DR..
Charles X. Cole. of Helena Mont moved that
the paper be not printed on the minutes of the
congress. This was carried. A vote was also
taken condemning the criticism of DR.. Leverson
of the medical profession. This carried.
DR.. Leverson protested vairiy against this ac-
ton, and left the room.
DIR. Edwin Lewis Of Burlington. VT, In his
paper The Development of tuberculosis In
the Individual" said:
For years the hereditary factor in the develop
ment of tuberculosis has held great importance.
But later day investigation and more intimate
knowledge Of cause and effect have modified
the theory of heredity n marked degree. To-
day We know that direct transmission OF tuber-
culosis from parents To offspring is rare Oc-
Currence, and never takes place except by in
lection during prenatal life. This is the only
tenable remnant of the theory of the direct
hereditary transmission Of the disease.

< Hon. Philip B. Thompson, IT,, Mem- Der of Congress from Kentucky, in a recent letter has the following to say of the national catarrh remedy, Peruna. The letter was written at Washington, D. C., and reads as follows:
 'My friends have used your remedy, Peruna, and take pleasure in testify ing to the merits of your medicine. Be- sides being one of the very best tonics, it is good substantial catarrh remedy" i" Philip B. Thompson, Jr.
 MT. William Pfeiffer writes from 900 Bank street, Cincinnati, O., as follows: Dr. s. B. Hartman, Columbus, O.:
 Dear Sir-"Owing to the fact that l have been troubled with catarrh and was cured by your medicine (Peruna), l cannot express my thanks to you for the health am now enjoying. My case of catarrh is one which has been in my system for years before knew what was wrong. It was going from bad to worse, until tired of it I went to an insti- tute for treatment. The doctor in charge said my nose would have to be operated upon. Having no confidence in the operation he wanted to perform I at once began to take Peruna, which is our family remedy. also followed your di- rections in the book "Winter Catarrh, ]" for which my mother sent, and found relief. Shortly after I suffered with a heavy cold, but recovered from that, and i, ,,, ,,o, xyor1y hoo1t1,u
 ''I cannot express my thanks to you for the service your medicine has rem dered me, and I recommend it as the best remedy for catarrh, as I am one..who has been cured by your medicine. Civilian Pfeiffer, Jr.
 Mrs. w. B. Grissom, of Henry, Ellis county, Texas, writes:
 q took Peruna faithfully over two months, and the result is thoroughly renovated system and strong, buoyant feeling, to say nothing of cure of the chronic catarrh. Therefore shall avail myself of every opportunity to speak of Peruna as 8 catarrh cure."-Mrs. w. B. Grissom.
 Catarrh is a systemic disease, curable only by systemic treatment. A remedy that cures catarrh must aim directly at the depressed nerve centers. This is what Peruna does. Peruna immediately invigorates the nerve centers which give vitality to the mucous membranes. Then catarrh disappears; then it is per manently cured.

THE. SOY REAN

A valuable forage and seed crop. well
 adapted to the climate of Connecticut,
 is the soy bean which is made the
 subject of a bulletin by Professor c. S.
 Phelps, just issued by the Storrs agri- cultural experiment station. When grown on rather light, loamy soil, under good conditions of culture, it has been found to produce from ten to twelve tons of green fodder per acre. Like other legumes, it has the power to gath CT nitrogen from the air and store it as protein in the roots. stem leavee and seed It's special recommendation are it's economy for use in rotation with ce- real crops or grasses. as a means of the nitrogen of the soil; the large proportion of digestible protein which gives it high value as a soiling crop to supplement pasturage, and for silage when mixed with corn fodder: and the correspondingly high value of the seed as a grain feed for milclr cows The method of the cultivation of the soy bean and its place in the economy of farm and dairy management are treated in detail in the bulletin, which is both valuable and timely Sent free on application to the Storrs agricultur- al experiment station, Storrs, Conn,

 During the winter season the onset of catarrh is often very sudden. It begins like an ordinary cold. It very rapidly fastens itself upon the organ attacked, whether it be tho head, throat or lungs, and assumes 8 stubborn form of catarrh at once.
 Upon the first appearance of what is known as common cold everybody should immediately take warning and provide themselves with bottle of Peruna. One bottle of Peruna will do more at the beginning of the attack than several bottles can do after the disease has become thoroughly estab- lished in the system.
 Peruna cures the catarrh wherever located. Peruna is not a guess nor an experimental is an absolute scientific certainty. Peruna has no substitutes no rivals. Insist upon having Peruna. If you do not derive prompt and satis- factory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable ads vice free. Address Dr. Hartman, President of the Hartman Sanitarium, Colum bus, Ohio. x.

CAPTAIN BREWERS IDEA.

Has Policemen of the Grand Avenue
 Station Watch Out for Truants
 The idea that originated in the head of Captain Brewer, of the Grand ave- . nue police station, to have all the po- lcemen of that station visit the schools in his district and find out the different truants, is proving a good one and the result has been that there have been very few boys lately who have dared to show themselves on the streets in schooltime The schools in the district are visited daily by various policemen of the Grand avenue station,, and the teachers and principals are seen and list of the boys out of school is given them. The policemen then go to the homes of the boys and ascertain the cause of their absence, and if they are playing "hookey''a a search of the neigh borhood and haunts of the boys is made.
 This plan has been going on for the past three days and the result has been very encouraging, for the teachers only. The boys in the various districts have been attending with great precision since the practice began, and the hook ey playing has been indulged in in a much less extent
