A CHILD DOESN'T LAUGH AND PLAY
 F CONSTIPATED
If peevish, feverish and sick, give California Syrup
 of Figs"

Mother! Your child isn't naturally cross and peevish. See if tongue Is coated; this is a sure sign its little stomach, liver and bowels need a cleasing at once.
 When listless, pale, feverish, full of cold, breath bad. throat sore, doesn't eat, sleep or act naturally, has stom- ach-ache, diarrhoea, remember, a gen. tie liver and bowel cleansing should always be the first treatment given. Nothing equals California Syrup of Figs. for chidren's ills; give a tea spoonful, and in few hours all the foul waste, sour bile and fermenting food which is clogged in the bowels passes out of the system and you have well and playful child again. All children love this harmless delicious fruit laxative" and 1t never fails to effect a good Inside" cleansing. Di- rections for babies. children of all ages and grown-ups are plainly on the bottle.
 Keep it handy in your home. A lit tic given today saves a sick child to- morrow, but get the genuine. Ask , your druggist for a bottle of "Califor-
 mia Syrup of Figs" then look and see that 1t is made by the California Fig
 Syrup Company.

TAHITI BELLIES SUFFER
 FOR VANITY'S SAKE

Papeete, Island of Tahiti, Jan. A. The Chinese women of Papeete have, with one accord, discarded their ma tionaI dress of oil cloth pantaloons and tunic and adopted the semi European dress of the Tahitian belles of the town. This includes ne highest of high-heeled French shoes.
 The result has been the infiiction of much torture which the women are enduring with the greatest forti- tude. For centuries they have trod the bosom of mother earth barefoot ed but today they parade the length of the beach road proud in their new acquisition. As soon as they are out of the public eye off come the shoes and they return to their dwelling, after the fashion of their ancestors carrying their shoes.

WANT KING ID GIVE UP SYSTEM
Board. of Health Will Ask John T. to Release City
 From Contract

Health Officer Dr. Walter H. Brown, at a meeting of the Health Board last night in the Health and recommending that the city of Bridgeport undertake the collection of it's own garbage.
 For a number of years John T. King has had the contract for the collection of the garbage, and his contract with the city has another year to run.
 After the report of Dr. Brown was read the board voted to ask Mir. King to release the city from the con tract. The present method of col lecting the garbage is unsatisfactory and expensive according to members of the board.
 Mayor Wilson was present at the meeting. which was the first meeting of the year, and partly for the pur- pose of reorganization. The mayor presided at the meeting until the re- election of President J. H. Callahan.
 In speaking of the proposed change in the garbage collection His Honor said: we have got to come to this question of city supervision. The city can do much better work than the contractors, and many of the com- plaints received now can be avoided It will do away with many of the unsightly places which now exist When the system Is once established I don't believe the operating cost vii be any greater than under the pres ] ent system"
 In his report to the board, Dr Brown made the following recon l mendations:
 That the board establish in tn, , Health Department a Division o Waste Disposal, to be charged witt the collection ashes, rubbish and gar bag9. Also that all of these service be taken over by the city.
 That funds for the ash and gar haze collection be required from tn Board of Apportionment, and plan be completed for the institution 0 the work.
 That an effort be made to annu the present contract for the collectio, of garbage. the equipment be take! over and the collection be placed un der the supervision of the abov named division.

PREDICTS NEW
 AIR WONDERS

London, Jan. 15.---(Correspondence ders of today in the air will be as naught compared with the wonders of tomorrow" was the way J. A. Whitehead, the inventor, summed up his view of the future of aviation in an address here.
 The face of the world" he de- clared, will be changed. Our towns and cities will be as different from the towns and cities of today as the streets and houses of London are diff ferent from the streets and buildings destroyed by the Great Fire. Our methods of life will be changed. Our Ideas of speed will alter We shall be the people of the Air Age He said that England's future as a nation depended on the question of the commercial use of aircraft, and that this country's task would be to control the aerodromes of the world
 They must be planned and laid out" he continued, "by our own work men. We should develop, by means of aircraft, distant and undeveloped parts of the world and secure inter ! national cooperation for the devel- 1 opment of commercial aircraft.
 The success of the business world is won by speed. The use of the air plane in the development of the
 worlds resources is a matter not alone for the city man and the s1lbur- ban speculator, but for the govern ment. An exploration department to find out how our surplus labor and
 wealth can best be expended for the
 good of the nation is not only an | idea---It Is a duty"
