Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. 4" Eat plenty Of
pork, was the advice TO the
consumptivc SO and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consuinptive needs
most.
sEmulsionisthemod-
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is TOO
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

Harbor Master Suttons fleet of tugs is at
work again today breaking up the heavy
ice above the Long bridge. in order to have
the river clear from above the Aqueduct

there in spite of the northwest gale.
In addition to the tugs named yesterday

river channel is open, the bulk of the ice
having been blown well over on the Mary
land shore by the wind.
The steamer of the Norfolk line which
arrived here this morning found but little
ice in the river, except about Matthias
Point. where the river channel runs close
to the eastern shore. She arrived here on
time this morning.
The Randall line viii send the steamer
Harry Randall TO the lower river landings

Made Reputation as the Inventor of
Riffed Cannon

DR.. William f. Woodbridge a resident
of Washington for almost half a century.
died at the Garfield Hospital Tuesday. after
- short illness. at the age of eighty years.
DR.. Woodbridge was best Known through
his invention of the ritied cannon in ls5t-
For many years he gave his entire atten-
ton TO the problems OF heavy ordnance.
and was known throughout the country as
an authority on this branch of military
science
The greatest result of his study was the
invention of the rified cannon and in the
development of the wre-wound principle
two years later. The wire built or wound
ordnance found favor with the English gov
eminent almost imms diateiy and was Adolf
cd by it. In Investigations as to the power
of explosives used in cannon and other
heavy pieces of ordnance DR.. Woodbridge
was ever prominent His writings on the
pressure of gunpowder and his experiments
with the same have attracted the attention
of experts the world over.

A Plan for Street Naming.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
would suggest the following plan for re-
naming the streets outside of the boundary:
Designate all ftnc streets which run east
and west ass avenues and number them
commencing it the number p, thus the
next street to w Street CIV street corre-
spends TO odd street in the numbering of
houses. would he I'D avenue, the next
street would be 24th avenue and so on; the
streets running north and south be ng
designated as'streets and numbered as they
now are. There would be the simple busi-
ness-like arrangement which exists In the
upper part OF New York city, avenues run
ring lenghthwisaa and streets running cross
wise of the city, The method of us ng
numbers to name streets Is more practical
than the use Of the letters of the alphabet,
IL for no other than because by it the
more readily dedicated. and the vagaries of
Eye street and ] street are escaped
Intervening streets. too short to be num-
bered could be called Terraces places
rows. mails, squares. and take their names
from the avenues or street Immediately
proceeding them-thus il all the short
streets running east and west were called
terrac es and all short streets running north
and south were called places. short street
between 18th and 18th avenues would be
named 18th terrace, and in a similar man
ner short street between 18th and o8sh
streets would be 18th place
The confusion OF having streets of the
same name in widely separate parts of the
city and the perplexities caused by the
terms N E.. and NV are things desirable
to avoid. This would be done by styling
the streets In the northeast as boulevard
and roads-thus 9th avenue when it cross
ed the dividing line between the northeast
and the northwest would be called 27th
boulevard. Instead of having two 1ss
streets. one northwest and one northeast.
it would be LIST street and 1st road.
