During the past tive months suspicious

Recent Information from the New York
state department of health apparently
indicates that infectious jaundice has
been present in that state in several To-
ealized outbreaks since January, 1926.
"The disease, which is sometimes mis-
taken for influenza, IS characterized in
most cases by a sudden onset with head
ache, fever Gotten 1e3 degrees or morel
nausea and vomiting, and pronounced
gaGtro-intestinal disturbance. Jaun-
dice rapidly develops accompanied by
marked itching. Nervous manifesto
tions, dizziness. and persistent hiccOugh
have also been reported in many in
stances. While the kidneys we're affected

Councillor Mrs. Anna Fenner said:
Now is the time for us to take action,
and not wait until we have an accident
which will entail eoss of life or injury"
She favored the motion which called for
immediate inspection and report of every
public building in the city. No criticism
was offered in respect to any hall or the
atre in the city but it Ia expected the
city manager will go into details in his
report at the next meeting of the council.
In accordance with instructions issued
at the last meeting of the council City
Manager Barlow said he had been in
consultation with officers Of the Connee-
dcHt company and as a result there
would be slight reduction IN street rail-
way fares beginning March /. On that
date the company proposed to sell three
tickets for 25 cents. In Bridgeport, it
was stated the company was trying a
five cent fare. without transfers, for a
period of so days. but the plan was
causing loss to the company.
The proposed traffic ordinance passed
the thr d reading and is now a law. In
der the new regulations there will be
more room for private vehicles at the
railroad station, and the jhney drivers
will be somewhat restricted In their
present stand at the parade.

New London. Jan. 3o.-Asserting tina
many buildings in New London are no
constructed according to the presen
building code, and therefore to be con
sidered unsafe, Councillor Waldo Clarke
at the meeting of the city council tonight
suggested a measure of safety. After
thorough discussion it was voted that the
city manager consult with the building
inspector and if action Is necessary in
any case. take immediate action to pro-
tect the public from injury or catastrophe
such as has recently been reported from
Washington and New Haven.
In remarking upon the motion Coun-
cilor William C. Fox said his attention
had been called to the almshouse and
particularly the third floor of that build
ing. There are several bedridden pa
tients on that floor" said Councillor Fox,
and in the event of fire they have no
method Of escape. There is q wooden

Reports from different parts OF
the country point to the probability
OF another and widespread outbreak
Of influenza, or grippe. The ex-
tremeiy serious character OF TINS dis
ease and the extraordinary rapidity
with which it spreads make 1t OF
the utmost Importance that every
person should have some knowledge
Of how it can often be escaped.
1t is now known to be fact that
this highly contagious disease does
not attack every one who is exposed
to 1t. 1t is perfectly clear that If
1t did do so no one would escape
Rn attack during an epidemic. 1t
has been proved to the point OF alb
solute certainty that influenza only
develops In those who have had their
yital forces, or powers OF resistance
TO infection, reduced below given
IeTel OF safety. This reduction OF
the vital forces may result from
reseated exposure to cold or damp
ness or 1t may and often does result
from some miner illness that has
been quite forgotten. 1t is fer this
ressen that an outbreak of influenza
often fellows q prolonged period Of
severe weather and generally claims
fer It's sufferers the old and enfeebled
or those In a dehilitated condition,
With this understanding Of why
seme are more apt than others to
contract influenza, 1t Is plain that
the best way to escape the disease Is
BIZ keeping the vital forces at tht
highest possible level. This can bs
done by the use Of reliable restora
tive. AS matter Of fact. the timely
use Of a promptly acting restorative
often prevents an attack OF inauenz,
from assuming dangerous type.
One of the greatest dangers con
aected with influenza is that III
