BULL DERS FIGH TING
 OWN INTERESTS IN
 CITY, AYERS MYERS
Profit of Few Spectators Not the Vital Things, 0.
 o. s. Expert Says.

t.It is just a question of whether. the council shall pass laws for the good of all the city or for the profit of a few building specuIators said Leet B. Myers today in regard to the Good housing ordinance. The working man gets no benefit from the frame three decker The rents in the three story tenements are just as high as for the same accommodate ttons in two family houses" con tfnued MT. Myers. .I can take you fright down to the lower west side and show you scores of houses in which tenements and two family houses stand side by side or within block of each other, and rent for the same with the same acccmmo dations. ex- eept that the two family houses are almoss Invariably in better condition.
 Now as to the prohibitive rents talked of. there are splendid two fam fly houses along Spruce street and Howard avenue in which four rooms are rented for $11.00 per month room per month Tenements in the same section rent for the same but have toilets in halls without ventiIa- ton and other poor conditions. while the two family houses are in good condition and have yards and small these houses in my office and will be glad to take any one down to see them at any time.
 There are houses in the same neighborhood that have four rooms and bath that rent for $14OO You cannot rent a tenement with these accommodations for less. These are not faddists' theories, these are facts The people who own these houses are not complaining. They are mak- ing good profits and are keeping their houses in good repair while nine out of 10 of the terements are al- lowed to lapse into the worst possible conditions.
 Recently in our charity work I rented five rooms of two story house for $12.O0 all in good repair On East Main street helped a fam fly find six rooms in two story house for $12.oO per month, good rooms for a good family. New Haven has built row of fire proof two story houses These are built of hollow tiIe-stuc- coed and rent for $13.oo per month they are giving a net profit of eight per cent on the investment These can be duplicated in Bridgeport, even by the same company if that were desired.
 The passage of t-good housing laws in other cities has not reduced the amount of building. nor has it cut off reasonable profits. Indeed we I think the builders are fighting their
 own best interests when they oppose this law.
 Bridgeport has in 1t the making
 of a great city and it will be a great pity if it fails to establish for itself the best possible conditions. Now is the great opportunity and the desire of the builders for abnormal profits should not be permitted to stand in \ the way of 8 progressive movement.

SEVERAL EMBROIDERY HINTS.

When doing embroidery, if you try
waxing your thread with a piece OF
white toilet soap it will be found that
thread will not wear out while work
ing and that it will wash much more
easily.
To remove the black lines try soak
ing the piece of embroidery in butter
milk and kerosene one night, next
morning wash and rinse.
To help keep embroidery clean roll
up the end of the cloth on which you
are not working and fasten into thin
cloth. In this it is kept much clean
or, and the work is much easier to
handle, as it is not SO bulky.

SALTS If KIDNEYS
OR BLADDER BOTHER
Harmless to flush Kidneys and neutral
ize irritating acids-Splendid
for system.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder, where
it often remains to irritate and infame,
causing burning. scalding sensation, or
setting up an irritation at the neck of
the bladder, obliging you to seek relief
two or three times during the night.
The sufferer is in constant dread, the
water passes sometimes with scalding
sensation and is very profuse; again,
there is difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call it,
because they can't control urination.
While it is extremely annoying and some
times very painful, this is really one Of
the most simple ailments to overcome.
Get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from your pharmacist and take table
spoonful in glass of water before
breakfast, continue this for two or three
days. This will neutralize the acids In
the urine 80 it no longer is a source of
arritation to the bladder and urinary or.
gans which then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and
is used by thousands of folks who are
subject to urinary disorders caused by
uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is splen-
did for kidneys and causes no bad
effects whatever.
Here you have q pleasant, effervescent
Whitewater drink, which quickly relieves
bladder trouble.

Care of the Baby IN Summer

and it's effect on the baby carefully
watched meanwhile.
If the baby vomits, belches gas, or
shows looseness of the bowels. the
food should be greatly lessened in
quantity or taken away altogether un-
til the disturbance subsidies.
For baby from months to one
year of age, the following food is rec
commended: Strained orange or prune
juice may be given once a day after
the baby is eight or nine months old.
unless his bowels nave tendency to
looseness; it should be given midway
between feelings; for instance, if he
is fed every four hours, the juice is
given two hours after bottle feed
ing or nursing. 1t is best to begin
with small amounts, say, two or three
teaspoonfuls, and to increase slowly
till one to three tablespoonful are
given daily.
At nine months he may be given
beef juice, beef tea, or plain mutton
or chicken broth once day,
At ten months he may have one to
two tablespoonful of cereal once a
day. Cream of wheat or farina may
used, either of which should be cooked
| for at least three-quarters of an hour
| in a double boiler.
At ten months he may have a small
piece of toast or zwieback or a crust
of bread to chew Immediately after
his midday feeding.
At twelve months he may have
cereal twice a day. If oatmeal is
used it must be cooked for three hours
and strained.
The following diet may be recon-
! mended for a child at II or 10
months:
a. m.-Milk, $40 ounces.
s a. m.-Orange juice, Is table
spoonfuls.
10 a. m.-Cereal, 1 tablespoonful
with milk, or stale bread and Zwie-
| back with milk. toeS ounces.
2 D. m-Broth with stale bread, or
beef juice, ounce with bread crumbs.
p. Insane as 10 a. m.
10 p. Milk, s ounces.
The principal requisite for success
full feeding is that only such simple
food as mentioned above should be
given. 1t is particularly dangerous to
give the baby of this age tastes of the
family meals, for if this is done the
baby is pretty sure to be given food
unsuited to his digestive organs, and
also to have his taste spoiled for the
simple diet which should satisfy him.

GOOD WATER FOR FARM
HOMES.

Clear. sparkling water is not always
pure water. A refreshing draught
from the old oaken bucket" may be
the beginning of long and possibly
fatal illness from typhoid fever, dysen-
terry cholera or other disease.
The subject of pure water supplies
for drinking and cooking purposes is
discussed in a bulletin just issued by
the United States Public Health Ser
vice under the title Good Water for
Farm Homes"
The germs of the so-called water
borne diseases come from the bodies
of persons afflicted with those diseas-
es. They do not live long outside the
body and do not originate spontan-
eously in nature. A few diseases are
communicated from animals to man,
but for the most part the germs which
get into drinking water and produce
disease come only from human beings.
If we keep the waste products from
the bodies of hmuan beings and ami
mails away from our water supplies,
we keep the water free from disease
germs.
The usual sources of farm water
supplies are wells, springs and els
terms. Running streams are so sci
dom free from dangerous pollution
that without publication they cannot
often be considered safe for domestic
use.
The most common form of supply
is the shallow well, reaching into {
layer of earth saturated with water
Few of these are fed by flowins
streams, except in limestone forma
tons, and they are really little more
than reservoirs for surface water.
Since they drain the surface for {
radius of sometimes several hundred
feet their location with reference t
stable, outhOuses and stock pens is
matter of prime Importance. Othe
possible sources of pollution are I
leaky or loose well casing, a defectiv,
curb, or a cover that is not water
tight. The best methods of construct
ing such wells and protecting thei
