WON'T ASK BONDS FOR PAVING WORK,
 ALDERMEN DECIDE
Instead, Request Will be Made For Raising of a Sum By
 Direct Taxation

There will be no $10o GOO bond issue for permanent pavement asked for by the Ahdermanic Street committee. this year. It was agreed after confer once between the committee and Messrs w. R. Brown and Walter B. Lashar of the Permanent Pavement and Sewer Commission. that if s50,- 900 were raised by direct taxation it would provide all the work that the Permanent Paving Commission might do in one season on streets where trolley tracks are laid.
 Commissioner Lashar informed the Aldermen that the railroad company had never kept its word with the com- mission and that there was always some hindrance either because of a delay in getting special trackage. or- dinary rails or paving material. If $10O,000 could be secured for perma- nent pavement it would be possible to pave all of the principal streets of the city where the tracks of the Con- nectfcut Company are laid. But MT. Lashar said that the work could never be done in one summer If the city had to await the motion of the rail- road"
 Alderman Jackson was in favor of having the civic committee on trolley betterment take the matter up with President Mellen.
 rHe is the smoothest thing over made. and no ne can pin him down to an agreement and make him keep it." said MT. Lashar.
 Well let US go to someone higher than him. replied NIT. Jackson.
 "Who?' asked the others present at the meeting.
 : MT. Jackson did some deep thinking and said we might take the matter up with J. F. Morgan
 His colleagues thought that it was going a little bit out of their way to trying tanning railroad presidents through the board of directors. and were of the opinion that Mr. Morgan was not in their class.
 Alderman Eugene I. Meyer said that he did not care whether the commit tee asked for a half million dollars by bonding. providing, that the matter was referred to the people in order to get the opinion of the electorate upon the matter.
 In view of the opinions expressed by Auditor Heating to President Rogers of the Paving Commission that there is no such thing as a permanent pave ment, 1t was decided to ask for $50,- 900 by direct taxation.
 It was agreed that in case the money is granted that the streets that will be paved win be State street from Main street to Hancock avenue: Fair field avenue from Main street to Park avenue: Fairfield avenue from C1in- ton avenue to the railroad viaduct. and Barnum avenue from Noble avenue to Seaview avenue. The sum of $50 GOO will go a long way toward paving these streets as there will be an as- sessment against the property owners on the streets and the railroad com- pany will pay for the work between it's rails and for two feet on either side of the rails.

 Washington, Jan. 28.-Among Con- gressmen, today, interest centers not
 so much on the question of whether President Taft's reciprocity agree ment with Canada will be passed this session, as 1t does in the problem whether it will be reported by the committees to which it has been re- ferred. In the Senate it has been consigned to the committee on fin ance which has charge of tariff bills. A member of that committee said, today, that canvass had been made and that it had disclosed not one of the agreement.

GIVE BRAIN A CHANCE TO

a" literally forget to eat

whether he has had his dinner,

and hence ono advantage Of
having the principal meal In
the evening and of emitting
breakfast and doing the most
taxing work In the forenoon.
Concentration Is the chief re-
qulrement for great intellectual
work, which implies the largest
appropriation of vitality for
brain exercise at special pc
rIods, and the least draft upon
vitality for digestion and elm
lnatlon. Efficiency In general
is largely a matter of nutrition.
