Home Recipe For

Well Known Physician Who Has

Gives Out Simple Home
Recipe to BE Given
Secretly.

A well known physician. locat-
ed In the Middle West, who has
treated thousands of cases of
liquor habit, in a recent inter-
view, made the following state
ment: THE cost of the drugs
used to treat the liquor habit in
the high priced sanitariums is
very little. Here is a simple, in
expensive prescription that can
be given secretly in coffee, milk,
water or in the food, as IL has
no taste, color or smell. To 3 OF.
of water add 20 grains of muri-
ate of ammonia, a small box of
varlex Compound and 10 grains
of pepsin. Put into coffee or
food a teaspoonful three times
a day. This prescription is per-
fectly harmless, can be filled at
any drug store, and will be found
very effective IN the treatment
of the liquor habit"

PUSHING THE FIGHT
 AGAINST TUBERCULOSIS s. Labor's Representatives Invited to a Conference With John F. Gunshan- nan

The representatives of labor engaged in the movement to prevent the spread of tuberculosis in Connecticut have been invited by former Commissioner John F. Gunshannan, at the request of many officials of employees relief as. sociations, to a state conference to be held at the Allyn house in New Haven Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock. At the conference those present will discuss such legislation as thought necessary to improve conditions and to benefit the state regarding tubberculosis, espe- ctally in providing for alcoholic tuber- cular cases with accommodations in a separate institution. Although the state indebtedness is now over s11,- 0o0,000, and united action for success is required. the workers profess to feel confident that their requests will hay e precedent over other sought appropria- tions.
 The state tuberculosis commission Is said to be strongly fayoring the adop- tion of a. place to treat bone diseases and may prepare bill asking for an appropriation for that purpose. All interested in the work look with favor upon the plank in the republican party platform which says: We glad ly recognize the large part which labor has taken in this work for humanity and believe that every incentive should be given to it to continue its efforts in this regard"

kind of treatment to the Budhists tn India and possibly to the French Cana dians.
 Taking up social forces at work in England prior to the war, which he said gave the clue to what brought the war about, Mir. Lehane said 1t was the rise of working classes to power. There was a triple entente of labor in the union of the railroad men, the miners, and the transportation workers with two million members altogether.
 In Germany the working class was most powerful, having four and a half million votes and representing from 20 to 25 million people, and the kaiser was becoming uneasy at their grow ing power. Five more years of the same progress would have given the government into the hands of the working class by peaceful revolution To escape revolution at home he plunged into a foreign war.
 In France also the working class had captured 40 seats in the parlia- ment and German, French and Eng fish working men were shaking hands as brothers, but are now fighting each other at the behest of the master class.
 In Italy the answer that the work ing class returned to the government was that a social revolution would follow if Italy entered the war. These were all social phases, MT. Lehane claimed. which were at work and were seen by the master class which plunged their countries into war.

MORE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
 AT GRADE CROSSINGS
Will Be in Recommendations of En- gineer EIweII of Utilities Commits sion.

There will be wholesale cleanup of all grade crossings in the state of Connecticut which are at all danger ous, and there are many such, if the recommendations to be made by Chief Engineer c. c. Elweu of the public utilities commission in his annual re- port, are enforced. Mr. ElvelI has just completed his annual inspection of the lines of the New Haven road, the Gen. tra1 Vermont and the Central New England within the state, and he made a special study of grade crossing con- ditions. His report to the comrnis- sion has not been completed.
 MT. EIweH made a statement Sat uTday that he found many grade cross ing5 at which. there is marked need for improvement, if the public traversing the highways of the state is to me ad- equateIy protected. He found. he said, that the most dangerous grade cross ings where motorists or drivers of other vehicles, could obtain no view of trains approaching from either di- rection, and where there are no gates. bells or dagmen stationed, are located in the country districts. At unpro- tected crossings, where the view is obstructed by bushes on either rail road land or private land.
 MT. ElWeu will recommend improve ment either by clearing the brush or the installation of automatic warn ing bells, which ring during the pc riod a train is within a certain dis tance of the crossing.
 MT ElweIl paid special attention to this branch of the condition of the railroads of the state because of the number of fatalities occurring in the past year.
 He travelled over the lines in a spe- cial train and made stops at every grade crossing. At each he left his car and walked down the road to get a inc on what sort of view is afforded the traveller on the highway. He found many places, as stated, where the view is obstructed and where i'm provement may be made at small cost.
 Thorough investigation of the con- ditions at the crossings on the Narth- ampton division of the New Haven was made. Mir. Elwel1 said these cross ings were all protected and that he did not regard them as especially dan gerous since the improved protection onaugurated by the road in the past year or two
 It is considered likely that because of the number of fatalities at grade crossings in the state in the past year this department of railroad operation may be made the subject of legiSla- ton by the next general assembly. This action will be furthered. it is believed, by the annual report and the recommendations of the utilities com mission
