And so. in addition to our regular market bulletin work, the experiment was tried of preparing special reports which would be of real value to this important class. In New York city the branch office of the bureau prepares special daily report for the great number of hotels and institutions in that city, and some 10000 bulletins are distributed daily One of the daily newspapers assign one of its feature writers to prepare a daily article based upon the information con tained in the report which will be of real value to the housewives in their market ing. This feature has proved success and other cities are following the same plan."

With the Fingers! Says Corns Lift Out
 Without Any Pain


 Sore corns. hard corns, soft corns or any kind of corn can shortly be lifted out with the fingers if you will apply directly upon the corn a few drops of freezone,. says a Cincinnati authority.
 It is claimed that at small cost one can get quarter of an ounce of free zone at any drug store, which is suffl- cient to rid one's feet of every corn or caIlous without pain or soreness of the danger of infection. This new drug is an ether com pound. and while sticky, dries the moment it is applied and does not inflame or even irritate the surround ing tissue.
 This announcement will interest many women here, for 1t is said that the present high-hee1 footwear is putt ting corns on practically every wo- mans feet.

By direction of Secretary Daniels. Surgeon General Braisted of the navy left Washington to make personal Inspection of the United States naval hospital ship Solace and other ves- sels of the Atlantic fleet for the pur- nose of ascertaining what basis there is for charges containued in 8 round robin signed by about thirty sick sail- ors who say that the Solace Is ihsan- itary and that they have been sub- iected to great danger of contagion while being transferred on that ves- gel from ships of the fleet to naval hospitals. The round robin was read to the senate by Senator Calder of New York, who obtained authority to have the committee on naval af- fairs make an investigation. Surgeon General Braisted has been directed by Secretary Daniels to lay the round robin before Admiral Mayo, com- manding the fleet, and to take charge of the investigation. Some confusion has arisen over the charges taken up by Senator Calder through the suppo- sition that the Solace is a hospital ship in the sense that she is float ing hospital. It was explained at the navy department that the Solace was primarily an ambulance to transfer sick men from ships at sea to hos pitfalls ashore. The statement was made that ordinarily the Solace could take a man from ship to a hos pital within three or four hours, but that longer trips were necessary to transfer patients to places where con- ditions were good for long treatment The navy will soon commission the private yacht Surf, the use of which has been given for the duration of the war by Dr. Harriss of New York, and she will serve as hospital ship. She will have all the necessary equipment and personnel.

HEALTH BOARD IS
 AFTER CLEAN MILK
Report Stntes That Most of the Res taurants Handle MIX in Most
 Insanftary Mannee.


 Insanftary Manner.
 Following close investigation into the manner in which the various res taurants in the city handle milk, Dr. B. D. Radclin. meat. milk and food inspector. is prepared to recommend to the health board a radical change in the city ordinance. As result of pr. RadcHfrs Investigations the health board has information which, it claims shows that thus far only one restaurant in the city, that owned by J. J. Walsh, handles it's milk in sanitary manner
 According to the health depart ment report, in most of the restau- rants milk is kept in large .an from which individual glasses are filled with dipper. In filling :he glasses it is said that often the milk overf1ows the glass trickles over the walters hand and finally flows back into the original csn again. The ros- sibility of contamination by this method Is obvious.
 Dr. Radcliffe also calls atten ion to the fact that all dairies must be properly screened from now on if the owners are to escape prosecution.

MT. Lin- coin said the convention would put a young man in the pulpit. who would reside here and devote his entire time to the work of the church. MT. Lincoln spoke particularly of the loy- alty and faithfulness of the New Brit ain Universalists, and mentioned one man in particular who, he said. was host in himse1f'' who was q tireless and faithful worker for the uplift- ing of the cause. It was voted to continue the advertisement each week in the New Britain Herald, which paper receives especial commendatior as an advertising medium, also as liberal, bread minded newspaper.
