Home Treatment for
tuberculosis

Many people have cured themselves of
tuberculosis by very simple, mex
pensive home method-fresh air, careful
diet and Eckman's Alternative.
This Alternative is not new medicine.
1t has been conquering tuberculosis for
several years, cures resulting after other
methods had failed.
Think what this means. No specialists
fees; no sanatorium charges. no travel
ing expenses.
Eckman's Alternative has cured many
people at home, where their dear ones
encourage them and give them that ten
der care which money cannot buy.
After you have thoroughly Investigate
ed our affidavits and testimonials-feel-
ing sure In your own mind that If Eek
mans Alternative has cured so many
others, II surely must help you-stars
taking the Alternative. Your improve
ment should be gradual. but certain.
If you have been faithful to Eckmans
Alternative, you win be amazed at your
Improvement. statement from one

Putting Up Strawberries.

The crushed strawberry makes a de.
lightful flavor, not only for ice cream
sodas, but for the mousse, the nectar
drinks and the molds and frozen creams
of various sorts
Strawberries crushed and well sng-
AIRED are IN a way preserved, and will
keep much longer than without the
sugar, so that it is economy to care
for them the moment the yeome from
tie dealer economy, whetreh they are
to be thus treated or eaten whole with
sugar and cream, SAYS an exchange If
they are spread out on plates and plat
tiers SO that each stands by itself If
possible, at least not weighted down,
they will keep much better than in the
crowded box
OF the ways Of putting up the straw
berry, perhaps the jam is the most gen
orally acceptable, but the preserve is
the most useful, since il can be used
tor havoring and for many OF the
things for which the fresh berry Is
used Old strawberry preserves are
not half so delicious as the new ones,
aud it is often the opinion of others
NtHiut ilit Sfi4dil VI ihihtis
that they should be eaten while they
are fresh Pound for pound is the
recipe and the fruit and sugar are put
together in layers in the preserving
kettle. They are brought slowly to
the boiling point. SKINNED carefully,
and boiled 10 minutes from the time
they begin to bubble Those who have
the facilities place them in dishes in
the sun for three or four days, the
fruit two or three inches deep and the
dishes covered with glass BY this

Recommendations of New York
Commission
WOULD DIVIDE THE TRAFFIC
Between B. R. T. and marlborough
Nobody Satisfied by the Solution,
But Must Accept or Get Moth
ing-More Delay Likely.

New York, june IA Five months
conference and controversy over new
/ subways in Greater New York came
TO a head yesterday in Il plan which
Mayor Gaynor declares in the largest
matter before any government in the
world, national, state or local, so far
as he knows, at the present time The
bigness of the project is made most en-
platte by the sum 1851 900, 900 that
viii be expended If the entire program
Of new underground and elevated ex,
tensions is carried out This is more
than three times the amount spent on
the present subway system
The report of the subway committee
embodying the plan attempts to settle
the controversy by proposing a com
promise by which neither the INTERIOR
otgh Rapid Transit company, which
operates the present subway, nor the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit company which
has control of most of the lines in the
Long Island portion of the greater city,
gets all it wanted The marlborough
will have to concede the Brooklyn
eompanys invasion of Manhattan. and
The Brooklyn company will have to
give New Workers five cent fare to
Coney island
The marlborough concessions are;
A subway on the east side, where
more thousands live to the square mile
than perhaps on any other spot in the
world, but which has been without a
subway. The proposed line will be via
Lexington avenue to the Bronx Also
a subway from And street south
through the lower west side via Seventh
avenue to the Battery; a subway east
from Longacrea Square via And street,
and the hitherto idle Steinway tunnel,
giving the lnterborough line into
Long Island City and Greensboro,
The Brooklyn Rapid Transit com
pany concessions are:
A subway under the East River at
l4th street, up Broadway to 42nd
street, and thence 5 Central Park at
59th street. via Seventh avenue; a
circuit Of elevated and subway lines
the East river bridges
Should either corporation refuse
what is offered, all the fayors viii go

plan The report was submitted to the |
board Of estimate yesterday afternoon |
and put over to special session on !

are included, would be; BY the city, |

Never did poesy appear SO full

Over all life broods Poesy, like
the calm blue sky with its mother

her is strong and healthy, wicked

1t is not the instructions of ip-

the revolts of intelligence.
Aspiration sees only one side 0!

deed, which can be most easily
borne, but poverty pays with its
person the chief expenses of war,
pestilence and famine.
Praise follows truth afar off. and
only overtakes her at the grave
Plausibility clings to her skirts
and holds her back till then.
1t is singular how impatient men
are with overpraise of others, how
patient OF overpraise to them
selves; and yet the one does them
no injury, while the other may be
their ruin.
In the parliament OF the present
every man represents constitu-
