at the time of writing, is more than $900,000 each year.
 The total cost to the state for the care of delinquent, defective and de- pendent persons is large, but it is diff ficult to see how any material de- crease can be expected in the near future. The normal development of existing institutions and the establish ment of new institutions and measures for which there is already urgent need will demand increased rather than diminished expenditures. Hope for ultimate relief lies in bringing all our instrumentalities of charitable and correctional work to the highest possible degree of efficiency and Tn adopting official preventive measures which shall reduce crime and pauper- ism and disease to their lowest terms. Respectfully submitted, Edwin A. Down, president, Hartford; Martha H. c. Mitchell, Norwich Anna C. Walter, Middletown; Thomas F. Kane. Hartford; J. B. Holman, Say brook, members of the state board of charities. Charles P. Kellogg, sec retary. Waterbury.

KIDNEY TROUBLE CAUSES
 INTENSE SUFFERING

, Sixteen years ago l was taken sick with Kidney trouble and suffered ter ribly for three months. | did not work during this time and was mostly confined to the bed. After using other remedies I finally tried a bot tie of Swamp-Root. I immediately began to feel better, and after using seven fifty-cent bottles, was entirely cured and have had no Kidney trou- ble since. I can truly say that owe my good health to Swamp-Root You may publish this letter for the benefit of other people afflicted as I was with the hope of bringing to their attention this most wonderful remedy.
 Yours very truly

BILE AND BIlIOUSNESS


 Coated tongue, bitter taste in the mouth, indigestion, headache, lack of appetite, constipation and feeling of fatigue are effects of excessive secretion of bile.
 This condition is called biliousnese and points directly to the need of something to regulate the liver. For this purpose Plnklets, the new laxative, are greatly superior to old-fashioned liver medicines which over-stimulate the liver and, when their use is stopped, leave it more torpid than before. Pinklets are tiny, sugar. coated granules that do not upset the stomach or cause gripping.
 Write the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,, Schenectady, N. Y, for free sample or get full-size 25-cent bottle of Pinklets from your own druggist.

excellent institution for the treatment of offenders between 16 and 25 years of age for whom there is some hope of regeneration. The Colony for Epileptics, with it's liimted initial ca paclty of so patients, is already prov ing its usefulness, but should receive substantial appropriations from the general assembly in order to provide sufficient accomm odations for the many cases of this disease which are in great need of suitable institutional care and treatment.
 In the case of the Connecticut School for Imbeciles, it is urgently hoped that the coming general as- sembly will accomplish the removal of the institution to a more accessi- ble location and will provide it with sufficient land and equipment to car ry on the curative and preventive work that it should perform for this large and dangerous element in our population.
 Considerable development may be noted during the period under review among the general hospitals of the state. New and extensive buildings have been added at the Bridgeport hospital, new city hospitals for con- tagious diseases have been con- structed in Hartford and New Haven, and alterations and improvements of more or less Importance have been made at the hospitals in a number of other places. The general condition of these benevolent institutions throughout the state shows a high or der of excellence in equipment, man agement and the care of patients.
 Outlived Original Purpose.
 The care of dependent children in Connecticut offers one of the most difficult and at the same time one of the most hopeful fields of activity in the states charities. It is quite evi- dent that the eight county temporary homes with their average population of about 1000 inmates have long since outlived their original purpose as temporary shelters. There is reason to believe that the time has come when careful survey should be made of the whole field of caring for dependent and neglected children in Connecticut, including not only the county temporary homes but also all private orphan asylums and children's homes, child-caring and humane so- cieties, and any other agencies that may deal with this matter. For this purpose it is suggested that a com mission be appointed by the governor to study the whole subject and to make report with their recommends tions to the next general assembly,
 The foregoing statement in regard to dependent children should not be closed with out reference to the new St. Agnes Home for children in Hart ford, which was opened for the recep- tion of inmates in September, 1914. It is designed for the care of infants and children under five years of age, and furnishes a much addi- tion to the child-caring institutions of the state, because, as is we'll known, the county temporary homes and most of the orphan ylums do

formatory for women offenders, which has been advocated for a num- Der of years, resulted in the passage of an act, No. 18O of the special laws of 1913, under which a commission of five persons was appointed by the governor to investigate the matter and to report it's findings and recom- mendations to the next session of the general assembly. Another commits sion appointed under an act of the legislature of 1913 was one of three persons authorized by special law No. 363 to investigate the sub ject of convict labor in the penal in stitutions of the state and to make it's report in January, 1915.
 Two Notable Additions.
 Two notable additions to the list of Connecticut institutions were made during the biennial period under re- view by the opening of the Connecti- cut Reformatory at Cheshire in June, 1913, and the Colony for Epileptics at Mansfield Depot in May, 1914 both of which were mentioned in the boards last report as then under construc- tion. The reformatory provides an

 Visits of Inspection.
 Tn accordance with the provisions oi Section 2,862 of the General Stat utes, regular visits of inspection have been made by two representatives of the board as often as once in three months to the State prison, the Con- necticut reformatory, the Connecticut School for Boys, the Industrial school for Girls, the hospitals for the insane at Middletown and Norwich, and the colony for epileptics, and interviews have been had with a number of the inmates in response to their requests. Visits to other institutions included in the preceding list of 1ss have been made at intervals, the inspection of a]mshouses being an important part of the boards work.
 A general survey of the charitable and correctional institutions of the state reveals condition of reason able excellence in equipment and man agement. Certain institutions may be recommended as standing high among their kind, while others lack many of the features desired to accomplish the best results and need the application of a continued and vigorous stim ulus to bring them up to an acceptable standard.
 The visitation and supervision of nearly 1,4OO children from the eight 1 county temporary homes who have been placed out in family homes or with relatives is one of the most inn portant of the boards activities, An other feature of the boards work ! that should be noted is the investiga- tion of applications for licenses to i board dependent children as required ! by chapter 62 of the Public Acts of 1 1911. Already seventeen licenses have 1 been granted for this purpose and a number of other applications have i been kept under advisement until the ! applicant should give proof that all
 
 Legislation and New Developments. The only new institution which was : authorized by an act of the general 1 assembly of 1913, viz, a state farm for inebriates, failed of establishment. | When such an institution is esta- 1 lished it would be we'll if it were not ! limited to the care of inebriates but would include q department for the use of the state poor. A hospital l section. also, is greatly needed for 1 the care of infectious, incurab ble dis 1 eases-such as cancer and the like which the general hospitals will not 1 now receive and which are frequently ! found in almshouses under conditions distressing alike to the sufferers and l to the other inmates.

 Expense to the State.
 Approximately sixty-five of the in- stitutions for the care of delinquent, defective and dependent persons in Connecticut ment ntioned at the begin ming of this report, that is, practically all except the ralmSh ouses and private institutions for the care of children, aged persons, and mental diseases, re- ce1ve financial aid from the state treasury. In behalf of these institu- tions and certain other allied agencies, the appended tables show that there was expended by the state in the fiscal years 1913 a. net total of $1, 998, ,S62.I, of which $1,434,48 481.48 was devoted to maintenance, super vision, etc, and $564, 4,3S1.23 was ex- pended for land, buildings, and equip ment. In the fiscal year 1914, the cost to the state was $1, ,946, ,517.92, of which s1,69O,970.77 was for main tenance and supervision, and s255,- 547.15 was for buildings and perma- ilSul HI oNellISIllS. faS cum pdl tb with the expenditures for similar purposes for a number of years past, the amounts devoted to maintenance and supervision show a steady in crease. The amounts expended for buildings, etc., vary, however, from year to year, according to the appro- priations granted by successive legis- latures in response to the different de- mands made upon them. In addition to this expense to the state, the cost to the towns for the support and re- lief of dependents and detectives, for which complete returns had not been made to the state board of charities

Not as Good as Last Year.
illinois has not shown the class It

Pogue and Clark will be in the game,
but they will be closely watched and
hit SO hard when they carry the ball
that the Orange and Blue element
will be weakened accordingly when
either is removed from the game.
