Report or COnnty Nurse.

The Social Service League Is fast be-
coming standing institution, the people
calling for the nurse in cases Of illness, or
even where there is trouble or misfortune,
having confidence in her to talk matters
over and perhaps by her help TO make
them little less difficult.
In small hamlets, where once the doors
were closed and the inmates reserved or
unfriendly, many now come out TO the
road and bring cripple or sick children to
ask If limbs could be Strengthened in the
hospital, or what the doctor intended by
such advice, etc.
The nurse has been called to over 200
cases of nursing, not only daily visits but
days and nights at time. Among them
cases Of surgery. typhoid fever, dropsy,
cancer, pneumonia and tuberculosis, keep
ing the latter in prophylactic supplies and
giving instructions in the care of the pa
tent. hygiene, diet and the importance of
precaution. We have found in our visits
instances Of excreta from typhoid and
tuberculosis cases thrown on top OF the
ground in the immediate premises OF the
homes, with other homes nearby, on a
public highway where the dust is carried
to the passers-by, with more or less danger
Of infection. 1t is gratifying to see how
the most Ignorant. when convinced that
fresh air Is not dangerous take pride in
open windows and cleared-out apartments.
Our loan closet is well-st0cked with
sheets. pill0w-slips, towels, gowns and
kimonos. These we loan to the patient
who keeps them until no longer needed,
when they are returned, nicely Numbered.
No one who does not visit the poor can
appreciate the advantage and help this

BREATHE HYOMEI
 FOR CATARRH Health Comes From Knowing How and What to Breathe

Hardly day passes without con- firmation of the old adage, Mans Life is but 8 breath of air.''
 Dust laden with disease breeding germs is inhaled by all who use the streets but disease is not developed unless the germs find conditions suit able for their Iodgnlent and growth
 With people having catarrh there is an ideal culture medium for these germs The irritated membrane and weakened tissues is a hot-bed where germs thrive and multiply.
 If you have catarrh or any trouble of the breathing organs causing stopped-up head, snimles or morning choking. you should use the easiest, simplest and quickest remedy, the derful medication is taken in with the air you breathe, directly following and destroying ali germs that have been inhaled, repairing any damage they may have worked and so healing and vitalizing the tissues as to render catarrh and germ infection no longer possible.
 The unusual way in which drug gists sell Hyomei should dispel all doubt as to it's curative properties The Lee and Osgood Co. offers to re- fund the price to anyone whom it fails to benefit. You do not risk a cent in testing the healing virtues of this breath of life. Complete Outfit $1-00. Extra bottles of Hyomei liquid if lat CT needed 50 cents.

fore it leaves Massachusetts. Then the cities in our own State add to 1t, and thus pollute this once clean river to 8 dangerous degree.
 There is a law requiring the dis posa1 of sewage, in Massachusetts, and in time Springfield and other cit fes in that State will cease to empty their sewage into the Connecticut and Houstonfe Rivers, but there is as yet no law of this kind in our State, and meanwhile conditions are growing worse.
 Dr. Frederick P. Gorham, of Brown University, a, member of the Rhode Island SheIl-Fish Commission, recent ly said, in a public address:
 Tt is certain that the rivers and streams of Connecticut will soon reach, if they have not already reach ed that dangerous condition in which the excess of filth and sewage be- comes a menace to health and even to life itself. We were confronted by the same threaat in our State of Rhode Island, and we met 1t by starting to "clean-up'' our rivers and harbors. Providence and Pawtucket are al plants, and other cities, and towns. are falling into line,''
 As a number of cities have made money out of their sewage disposal plants. the cost is not properly at issue at all.
 It has been suggested that persons who are interested in the passage of the .'Anti-Pollution" Bill, should write to their State Senator and Represen- tatfVes, asking them to vote for House Bill No. 7S.

HEARING ON "ANTI-PoLLUTION Bill Provides that Cities and Towns
 must "clean up" Sewage.

This afternoon at two o'clock a
 public hearing on House Bill No. 70S,
 known as the Anti-Pollution'' Bill, will
 be held by the Committee on Public
 Health and Safety. Of which Hon. J.
 H. Whitcomb Of Bridge -c is chair . man
 A number Of interests are advocat-
 ing the bIl-particularly the sanitary authorities, yachtsmen summer colo ny associations, fishermen and oyster growers.
 The bill provides that all rivers and other watercourses shall be placed under the charge of the State Board of Health and that all cities. towns corporations and individuals who empty sewage into them shall be re- Quired to purify or otherwise dis pose of such sewage
 Among the beneficial effects of the bill would be better conditions for Sound and rivers, more enjoyable boating, a pronounced gain in public health and cleanliness and the restor- ation of the former splendid supply Of hsh and sheu-f1sh in our water courses
 Drinking water secured from water courses will be purer than ever. Some idea of the necessity for protecting considering the situation at Spring field. Mass. on the Connecticut River:
 Water unfit for drinking will here ssns1o sftsT Ry guDeitY %aa ybs Ioesf n Health has passed an ordinance re- quiring that pipes, faucets. and other outlets from which unfiltered river water Is obtained for fire protection and industrial uses be provided with placard of warning and painted & brilliant red. says the Engineering Record.
 In this way it hoped to prevent peo- pie from drinking the contaminated water and reduce the mortality from enteric diseases. The ordinance, in that pails and similar utensils for containing the river water be marked with the red danger sign. AS for the placards at the faucets, they bear the legend Warning Polluted Water" in letters at least one inch in height, and are inscribed in several languages. The Springfield Board of Health is to be commended for the action it has taken. Duplicate systems of water other for industrial use. are not un- common in cities where there are large number of mills and factories. as at Springfield. That city is sup piled with filtered water for domestic use, but 1t is difficult to make nill- hands, many of them foreigners ap- preciate the danger of using the irn- pure river water by. telling them the risks they take. The printing and placarding of the faucets. however, should set as much needed deter rent in the promiscuous use of such water.
 It should be remembered that these conditions exist at 8 point north of our State boundary line. They mean l that the water of the Connecticut ] River is already partly polluted be- l

CLEANUP BEGINS.
Norwich Urged to Devote This Week
 to Producing the City Beautiful.

Saturday began the cleanup week which the City Beautiful association is urging the citizens and the city gov ernment to observe in such an eff fective way that there shall be no mis- homer in calling Norwich the Rose of New England.
 This means that householders shall look over their premises to see if they are in as neat and tidy a condition as possible, and that the streets can have extra attention on the part of the city to present them in their most inviting appearance. Vacant lots where rub bish accumulates, billboards where torn paper filters the ground, and any other places where waste paper or lit ter makes an offense to the eyes are to receive attention this week.
