Local People Urged to Use Vigorous Measures to Com bat Further Spread of Deep Grippy Colds.
PNEUMONIA CHIEF DANGER
Grippe Attacks Weaken Body's Re Sistancc 10 Germs of Pneumonia All Colds Should Be Treated Promptly.

Deep grippy colds have been un usually prevalent here this winter. The situation is fairly general throughout the States. In some sections these colds are called 'In- tluenza", but the majority of health officers report that they arc much milder than the original epidemic and resemble more closely the old fashioned la grippe. They are usu- ally accompanied by a headache or achy feeling over the body, run ming of the nose" sncezing and fre- quently by gastric and intestinal complications such as hiccoughs. nausea, diarrhea. etc.
 Colds are too often neglected un- til they have lowered the vitality sufficient 10 permit the lurking germs, which cause pneumonia, bronchitis and influenza to attack the body.
 Don't Take Chances
 The only safe plan is to attack n cold right at the beginning. A hot foot bath, laxative, a sweat and a vigorous application Of Vick's Vapo- Rub at bedtime over throat and chest will often break up a cold over night.
 For hours after Vick's is applied the vapors of camphor. menthol. eucalyptus, thyme and turpentine. released as vapors by the body heat. are inhaled directly into the infect ed air passages At the same time it warns and stimulates the skin like a poultice. drawing out" the soreness and paln.
 It is an obstinate cold indeed that can resist this direct. double action.
 Vick's Vapor steam
 If the air passages are badly Up, try tho 'teakettle and tent" treatment This method - fully explained in the directions consists, briefly. Of vaporizing Vick's in toakoftle and arranging a news paper tent" over the patients head so that the combined warm steam and medicated vapors can be in- haled.
 Mothers especially appreciate | Nick's for the frequent colds of chil- dren. as ii can be used freely and | often. without disturbing the diges- tion-you "just rub 1t on" Over 2r ] millions jars are used yearly.-advt.

NO SURPRISE IN THIS FAMILY IF
 STORK NhXES VISIT WITH TWINS
Seven Pairs Recorded With C. M. and c, D. Phillips of This City Two of Them.

Tho advent Of twins in a family
 IS an occasion which, though com-
 mon in the history oc tho human
 race always is hailed as unusual.
 A family or which a resident of
 New Britain, Martin $, Phillips or
 -'' Chapman street, is q member
 "n'ch bears out the argument thai l"inS run in family" has come lo hSh' In the generations begin. hnE with Mr. Phillips grandmoth. ef' theF" have been seven hairs of | '"lNS' and in a direct line, four pa'rs' 'hreo sets being boys and one being girls.
 Tho family. which is primarily the Dickinson family, is on the female Side d direct branch.of the family Of when Robert E. Lee, famous general o' the Confederate army. was T member. Through four generations .he seven pairs of twins have been born.
 Mary Lee Dickinson, who wasa resident Of Lttchneld county in this S'ate' was the mother of twins, both or whom are still alive. They are water Dickinson Of Southbury and Wallace Dickinson of Marion. They are 7S years old.
 Wallace Dickinson, one Of the rair, IS the father Of twin boys, Fred and LI' Fred resides in Marion and Ed m Falls Village, Litchdeld county, They are St years Of age.
 Wallace and Walter Dickinson are unclcs of Mir. Phillips Of this city. and to complete the run Of genera uohS' Mr. Phillips is the father Of pair Of boys. IT years old, who re- sile with their parents. The boys are Carlton M. and Charles D. Phillips.
 Mr, Phillips daughter, Mrs. Rav- mond Winchester Of Hartford, is The member or the present generation who heIph keep the record of sue cNsslve progeny, She is the mother O. a pair of twins, but in this case, the first departure is noted as both her children are girls, They arc two years old and have been named Audrey and Adair.
 In other branches Of the family directly connected with the first of the linc, Mary Lee Dickinson. there have been other twins.
 Lizzie Lee Cummins of New Mil. l ford, sister 10 Mary Lee Dickinson. was the mother Of two sets of twins, i one pair q boy and girl and the other two boys. Another member Of inc !. family, Mrs Alice Dickinson Pierce. l. or RoXbury, Conn. also enters into this strange succession Of births. She IS first cousin or Mir. Phillips and was the mother Of twins, a boy and S'rl. The girl died in infancy, but <. the son, Willard Dickinson. 27 years l old, is still living.
 A peculiar trait of tho twins has also boon noted. Instead of being like most twins arc reputcd 10 be. simi.ar III disposition. tastes and modes ot living, the Dickinson family of twins is opposite in everything. One likes 10 Dc meticuous ill his dress while the other cares not for personal an. {. pearance, One turns 10 mechanical lines, the other is q dreamer

COUNCIL UPHOLDS
 VETO BY PAONESSA
No FulI'Iime Deputy Inspector
 in Building Dept.

Approving a veto submitted by
 Mayor A. M, paonessa, the common
 council last night reversed its de-
 clsion of last month and voted
 against appointment Of full-time
 deputy building inspector.
 It Is planned to continue the
 present inspecting staff which in.
 cludes a part-timo deputy building
 inspector this plan having been
 faNored by Mayor Paonessa on
 grounds of efficiency and economy.
 Mayors Veto
 'Gcn,lomen of the Common Coun- ,Cil:---
 T am returning herewith, disap- proved, your resolution oC January 70 creating the office of deputy building inspector on a full-time basis.
 My decision 10 veto this resolu. ton followed careful consideration Of our building problem. We have experienced a year of abnormal building during which it was neces- sary to engage a part-timc assist ant to the building inspector. Wo were fortunate in securing a deputy who had long experience in this line ot work and who was sufficient " interested to give his full time although engaged and paid on q part-timo basis. His salary is now several hundred dollars less than was paid him some years ago when he was building inspector. It would be unreasonable 10 expect that we could maintain the present staff Of inspectors unless there was to oe a material increase in salary and 1t is 10 be presumed that adop- ton Of your resolution would de- prive us of the services of our pres ent deputy.
 Admitting that the building boom has not yet subsided, we must also consider the findings of your committee, who reported: it is the opinion of building authorities and institutions that building operations will decrease during the present year..
 If so, then I fail to see the logic Of naming a permanent deputy at this time. A charter provision which permits of the appointment of extra help during periods of need assures that the department will not he undcrmanncd at any time. Dur. ing periods when there is a boom it is possible for the department to engage a part-timc inspector, pro- vlded you approve, while at other times, when there is no need for deputy, the city is not required tc pay the extra salary.
 T fail to sec how zoning will in. crease the work of the inspectors since the maps and ordinances are now fully comprehonded by the de- oartment. and all disputes are handled by the board of adjustment, The building ordinance, likewise, hough changing many details of should offer no great once the department has become familiar with it's provisions.
 Tn view of the likelihood of q 'eduction in building operations, tho certainty of increased costs if permanent inspector is to be named. | nd a likelihood that the depart nent'S efficiency not only will not 'e improved, but probably impair d, l feel this recommendation
