CURIOUS CHANGE
Caused by Food.

"A few months ago." writes a n. Y. State
woman, Il was the victim Of a stomach
40 ~disordered that l could eat scarcely any
sort Of, food without suffering great dis
tress. In time an eruption appeared, Of
a most painful nature, which covered my
whole body, and which the doctors said
was erysipelas, and prescribed for it ac-
cordingly.
Their medicines gave me no relief, how
ever, my condition growing worse day by
day. At last it occurred to mt that possibly
the arrangement Of my stomach was the
cause Of the trouble. The doctors said
that that organ was like a piece OF raw
beef.
Il made a complete change in my diet,
and put myself on a straight regimen of
Grape-Nuts food. In n day or two / be-
gan to improve, my digestion gradually
came back, all the seriousness and head
aches disappeared, and within 10 days the
so-called erysipelas passed away and has
never returned, Meantime my weight has
increased and I oan digest food that for
merly / could not.
Il can honestly say that Grape-Nuts
food constitutes the best diet ! ever used"

ULSTER WATER SUPPLY NEAR.
Bill Agreed on Which Suits Both the City
and the County

ALBANY. March 8.-Instead Of embarrass-
ing and hindering the work of building an
adequate water supply for New York city
in Ulster county, the last bill introduced by
Assemblyman Fowler Of Kingston is des-
tined TO meet the views of all concerned.
The bill was drawn by the State Water Com
mission, and if it passes it will permit New
York city to begin at once the work of build
ing its supply in that county. 1t is stated
that Mayor Mcclellan favors the bill and
that the city will offer no opposition to it.
The bill is intended to compensate the
people Of Ulster county against any pos
sible loss by reason Of the city going there
for water. 1t permits Of indirect damages
to real estate owners, which has been one
Of the stumbling blocks to progress in the
matter Of starting operations. By this a
farmer or other landowner who can show
that his property has deprecated in value
by reason Of the building Of the reservoirs
and the laying Of pipes can get damages.
The bill compels New York city to
rebuild more than half the sewer system
of Kingston, which will be torn up in laying
the New York pipes. Kingston lie to be
permitted to tap the mains of the larger
city at a price to be fixed by the State Water
Commission.
A further provision Is that before con-
domination proceedings are commenced
New York city shall deposit half of the
assessed valuation of the property to be
AIKEN. This ia to guarantee the property
owners speedy settlements OF their claims.

BACK BILLS no HELP SICK POOR.
Arguments At Albany Against Staten Island
and Nassau County P%retudices.

and Nassau County Prejudices.
ALBANY. March e.-The Assembly Cities
Committee to-day held hearings on bills
affecting the plans of the city for the relief
Of the sick poor. One was Assemblyman
Wedemeyer's bill, which prohibits New
York city from establishing a consumptive
sanitarium on Staten Island. The other
was As~semblyman T~ompkins's, authoriz-
ing New York city to establish a recreation
colony for convalescents and sick persons
on Long Beach, Nassau county.
Robert w. Hebberd, Mayor McClellan's
new COMMISSIONS of Charities, pictured
conditions as they existed to-day and argued
that local prejudices should be overcome
and that instead Of ~endangering the health
of a community the establishment Of a
s~anitarium would be the means Of throwing
safeguards around the health Of the entire
people.
He said that Mayor Mcclellan had ap-
pointed a committee OF representative
citizens to look into the whole subject Of
hospital construction. II it were shown
that a better site could be had than the one
now proposed in Richmond borough such
other site would be selected.
The consumptives of the city, he said,
must De prOVlueu lOr dueQudueiy lot unelT
own protection and the protection Of the
public at large and no local clamor should
be allowed to stand in the way OF such pro-
vision"
The hearing on the Tompkins bill de-
veloped the fact that the town of Hemp
stead is anxious to hold the five mile strip
of Long Beach for speculative purposes.
The town is opposed to having the recrea-
ton spot known as a colony and as under
the jurisdiction of the hospital authorities.
Consequently the bill 10 to be amended to
have it known as a recreation park and
under the jurisdiction of the Park Depart
ment. 1t is asserted hat the town Of Hemp
stead is anxious to sell the strip of beach,
but wants to name its own price. Against
these mercenary ideas those of humanity
were urged by DR.. j. W. Brannan Of Belle
vue Hospital, DR.. S. s.. G~oldwater, superin-
tendent of Mount Sinai Hospital: and Gay
lord S, White Of the Association Of Neighbour
hood Workers.
When asked to eliminate a provision
enabling the city to 60 outside OF its own
territory Assistant Corporation Counsel
Charles l.. Guy declared that this provision
is necessary to enable tho city to ma Ike
satisfactory terms even if it should wish to
purchase within the city limits.

Noticing that the J. @. Aver company was not
represented az the state house the other day, when
q hearing was given the patent medicine people
before the m on public health. . reporter
OF The Sun Interviewed DR.. Charles H. Stowell.
treasurer and general manager Of said company.
The reporter asked DR. stowell why his company
was not represented at this hearing. He replied:
-We are not In the patent medicine business, hence
were not interested as q company In these patent
medicine laws, l am interested, however, as q
citizen in the passage of such laws, for ! believe
they are absolutely necessary in order 70 protect
the public from being swindled out OF their healln
as well as out Of their money.
This is not q patent medicine house. We are
manufacturing chemists, regular manufacturing
chemists. We publish the formulas OF all our
medicines. and we most cordially invite any one
who Is interested 10 visit our laboratory and learn
there precisely how our medicines are Manufactured
from these formulas"
The reporter asked DR.. Stowell II he had expert
enced any Of the unfortunate results predicted for
those who should give their complete formulas TO
the public.

every branch OF our business 10 extremely pros
porous, aud especially our domestic business. We
are enjoying the most prosperous times we have
had for many years. and we have every reason TO
believe that this 10 largely the result OF our taking
the public into our confidence and telling them
frankly and fully all about our medicines.

Miss Madden said that Duryea got her

Finally, she said, she learned from Stokes

j. C. Aver Co. Leaves Pro-
prietary Association
Too Many Fake Medicines on the.
Market-Does Not Like Secrecy
No Proprietary Medicine Can Take
Place of Family Doctor.

some time ago. When asked the reason why such
an old house as the j. C. Aver company resigued
from such a large ndinnuential bodyof proprietary
medicine men, he replied:
THE principal reason was because such O large
majority OF Its members seemed to think II neces,
sary TO fight the doctors. We have no sympathy
whatever with such q course. II is n OF only unvise,
but absolutely ridiculous TO advocate that a pro-
prictaty medicine can take the place of the family
physician. In all our advertisements we always
urge the people to consult their family physician,
| brought this point out clearly In my letter OF
resignation"
AT the reporters request DR.. Stowell gave US q
copy OF this letter, which is as follows:
Thereby tender the resignation Of theJ. c. Aver,
company as a member OF the Proprietary Assocle'
ton of America, the same TO take effect at once,
Ny rea sons for rendering this resignation are two
fold: .s
First, I believe that every bottle OF proprietary
medicine should have the full and complete formula.
printed in plain English. as a part of the label.
Second, l believe that the successful proprietary
medicine OF the future must have the support Of
the medical profession. The best medicine IN
the world can never take the place Of the family
doctor. He comes nearer TO his patient. learns
more about the case and Is In every way better
qualified TO know what medicine is best. Az tha
same time l believe that there is a place for good
proprietary medicines. And | further belicve
that there 10 no reason In the world why a high
class. effective and In every way desirable pros
pnetary medicine, with published formula. should
not have the endorsement Of the medical PROBES"
sion and become an ally to its best interests.
Holding these two beliefs very strongly. aud
knowing that this company stands almost alone
in said beliefs. | feel sure that 1t would be better
for the Proprietary association and also for our.
selves II we severed our connection with It,"
The reporter asked II any other proprietsry
medicine house was publishing the complete formu-
las OF It's medicines, and was told: AS yet We ore
the only house that publishes Its complete formulas.
a few have come over TO our way OF thinking in 50
far that they have printed the ingredients OF their
medicines, and others give the Information when
asked. But we are confident the time is not far
distant when all first class proprietary medicihe
houses will follow our example in this matter.
"If all reputable houses would only 40 so at once
we could wipe out forever a great lot of miserable,
useless and even dangerous compounds that arc
now causing. directly or indirectly, the annual loss
of thousands and thousands Of lives, TO say nothing
of the millions of dollars stolen from our honest
hard working citizens. Lowe Sun, March 2, 1906.

ALBANY, March o.-The action Of the
Senate in ordering to a third reading As
semblyman Agnew's 80 cent gas bill
for New York city with but one dissent
ing vote, indicates that the bill is going to
pass the upper House. Senator Cassidy
cast the only vote against advancing the
bill, declaring that conditions had not
changed within a year. He was the only
n who voted against the bill last year
who still opposes the bill.
Senator Coggeshall indicated that he ts
not heartily in favor Of the bill, and tried
10 amend IL. An appeal by the gas COM
panies to the Appellate Division, should the
Supreme Court hold that the State Lighting
Commission had no right to fix the price
at 80 cents, would not help the companies.
as the law would be on the statute books
fixing the price. Consequently Senator
.Coggeshall wanted the bill amended, so
that if the Appellate Division decided
that the Lighting Commission's price Of
80 cents was too low the law would be de-
clared void. However, the Senate voted
the amendment down.
Senator keenan, tried to amend the bill
so as to nave the so cent provision include
all Of Queens borough with the exception
of the Fifth ward. This also was defeated
and the bill as 1t passed the Assembly was
advanced to O third reading and will be
pnssed.
The Assembly recommitted to the excise
committee Assemblyman G.. H. Whitney's
bill prohibiting the granting Of a liquor
license to a place within 200 feet Of a public
library after May l next. The bill was
attacked by New York city and Buffalo
members. The New York members as
serted that the bill would mean a severe
blow to property interests on Forty-escond
street In the vicinity Of the Tilden Library.
If the bill became a law it would prevent
any more hotels from being built in that
district.
1t is certain that New York city will ex-
