ference at Havana, Cuba.
PRAISE FOR OUR FEVER EXPERTS.
Dread scourge Bnnishcd From Pearl
of the Antillcs-Dr. Jesse Lazcar
n Martyr 20 Scientific Zeal
For Human welfare.

HAVANA, Jan. 1.-THE feature of
the formal opening last night of the
annual meeting of the American Pub
lie Health association was the address
Of the president, DR.. Carlos Finlay. the
yellow fever expert and chief of the
Cuban health department. DR. Finlay
paid tribute to the accomplishments
and sacrifice of American experts who
have brought about the beneiicent re-
suit of banishing yellow fever through
the energetic application of what pre-
viously had been only theories. DR..
Finlay was in turn praised by Ameri-
can sanitarians for his services to hui
marty in discovering the mode of yel-
low fever propagation.
DR.. Finlay said Cuba was especially
grateful to this association, some of
whose members We're Cuba's greatest
benefnctors. The Punishment of yellow
fever was largely due to two commits
sions from Washington, the first Il
quarter of century ago and the sec
Ond twenty years later. The latter de-
cisively established the true etiology
themselves prostrated by the disease,
and one. DR.. Jesse LaZear. died mar
tyr 20 scientific zeal, permitting him
self to be infected and contaminated
by mosquitoes. DR.. Finlay praised the
work OF Major Gorgas, chief health
officer under General Wood. who,
adopting the commissions findings,
s1 oil wifi tn, at
ding Havana of her inveterate enemy.
With reference to the two cases of
yellow fever last October in Santiago
province DR.. Finlay said it was pre-
sumable that they were transmitted
by mosquitoes from Il quarantine ship.
These were the only fever cases since
1901.
The only case of smallpox, DR. Finlay
said, was one unvaccinated person, a
detention hospital employee, credited
to Mexico.
DIR. Finlay urged n stronger fight
against tuberculosis, the most impor-
tant mortuary factor in large towns
everywhere.
DR.. Erastus Wilson of Havana read
paper on sanitary conditions in Ha-
vana and the necessity of their i'm
provement. He said that while the i'm
provements during and since the
American Intervention had reduced
the death rate one-half Havana was
now in the condition of having washed
her face and left her underclothing
dirty. Her radical requirements indis-
putably is q complete sewer system.
DR.. Wilson pointed out the difficulties
which prevent the general government
from authorizing the projected $685.
100000 loan for Havana sewers until
the soldiers pay loan is partially
cleared off.
Members of the association CON-
mended DR.. Wilson's candor and re-
marked that several cities in the Unit
ed States We're in a condition similar
to HavaISls.

"Milk for babes but meat for men,"
When a man can no more eat mans
food, but exists on milk and cracker
diet he is gone back to babyhood He
may be big man but he has baby's
stomach.
Success in life depends largely on the
stomach. The man with the babys
stomach finds himself also with babys
peevishness and perversity. He has the
baby's exaggerated personal sensitive
ness and jealousy. He is an annoyance
to his friends and All anxiety to his
family. No man can be stronger than
his stomach. A weak stomach argues
weak man. And vweak stomach is
the common starting point of most OF
the so-called weaknesses which affect
the great organs - heart, lungs, liver,
kidneys, etc. How can il be otherwise
when the body and all its organs are
dependent on the stomach for their
nutritionp The "weak" stomach drags
the organs down with it, because being
weak it is unable to convert food into
nutrition, and the organs of the body
being starved, of necessity become weak,
as consequence of starvation.
DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
cures diseases of the stomach and other
organs of digestion and nutrition. 1t
makes the weak body strong in the only
way physical strength can be made,
which is by food, properly digested and
assimilated The cures Of oweak lungs,
"weak heart, "weak" or sluggish liver,
vweak" kidneys, ETC., which follow the
use of rGolden Medical Discovery" are
all due to this perfect nutrition of the
body, the proof of which is the remark
able gain of sound solid flesh, which
invariably marks the cure.

HE'D SMASH PARTIES
MIR. Jerome Speaks of Senti.
ment of Civic Duty

PHILADELPHIA. March 9.-wiIliam
Travers Jerome. district attorney of New
York. was the principal speaker at the
monthly dinner of the Academy of Politi-
cal and Social Science held tonight. Mr..
Jerome spoke ON The Strength and
Weakness of Independent Reform Move
ments" and expressed himself hopefuI of
the ultimate potency of civil service reeu-
lation and the establishment of a systen,
Of primary competence as a means of the
breakdown OF the solidarity of political
parties. He said that the one thing that
was going Ito smash the solidarity Of
the political party was the fact that All
over this land there is an awakening
realization on the part OF young. educated
greater than that which deyoiyes unon
the uneducated.
An awakening sentiment OF civic duty
he said, develops higher type OF heroism
than charging up San Juan hill. He adj
mitted that a certain degree of solidarity
is necessary for the operation OF civic
institutions. but that it must be founded
upon principle and not upon the cohesive
power of public plumber" Mr.. Jerome
said that one Of the chief Weaknesses
OF reform movements is lack OF money
and he laid emphasis upon the lukewarm-
ness of men OF wealth and high position
when Il comes to the making of real sac
rfficeS for reform.
Three laws on the statute books Of ev
cry state in the union do more to prevent
the forward growth OF reform movements
than all other causes combined-the stat
utes relating to gambling. to the social
eyii ana to drinking True reform in our
laws are substituted for those now in
force and there is q radical oYerturning
OF the weakness with which we approach
those evils today
Mr.. Jerome declared that New York was
more honest and more uprightly ruled
than any big city in the country.
