Divided on LiteraCy Test Gossip
 From Washington
Especial to the Herald

Washington. March 27.-The Con ' necticut delegation in the house will divide on the Burnett immigration bill containing the provision for a 1iteracy test, it is said. Representa- tive Hill is reported to. be prepared to vote for the measure, which has the support of organized labor elements.
 On the other hand, Representative Oakley, Tilson, Glynn and Freeman will vote against the bill, it is said The bill is opposed by Connecticut people of foreign birth and parent age. It would have a tendency to re- duce immigration.
 Representative Tilson got into the debate on the bill today in order to defend Connecticut and particularly New Haven, from the criticism voiced against the latter city yesterday by Representative Focht Of Pennsylvania, who favors the bill.
 MT. Tilson said that some of the best people in Connecticut arc of foreign birth or percentage. He told of the rapid progress made by the immigrants. He denied Focht's state 1ncnt that few people in New Haven speak English. Mr. T-ocht. had said:
 CT know a man up in New England who went down to New Haven and V on tho street of that city inquired for the registers office, where he desired to have some papers recorded in con- nection with his property, and he walked three squares and inquired of every man he met, and was unable to find anybody who could speak the ~Tnglish language until he met Q col ored man. That is true enough" i
 There are mon in Yale university 1 who speak the language" replied 1 Representative Oakley.
 ''Yes," retortcd Focht, and I know some of them in Yale university | when the inquiry was made. who said there was a Frepch teacher who could speak not only French, Sbut ten other different languages, and the gentlemen who inquired about it said that certainly English was not one of them"

For nearly , years l have been studying the Chemistry of food and Chemistry of the human body. I have put these two sciences together and formulated the science of Applied Food Chemistry. By the application of this knowledge I cure all forms of stomach and intestinal diseases, and all other disorders that result from wrong eating and drinking. This method cannot fail because it con- forms to the laws of Nature.
 It is estimated that ninety-two per cent. of all diseases is caused by errors in eating. These errors are made by wrong selections, wrong cOmb binatiOnS, and wrong proportions
