IF AT FIRST YOU DON'T TRY A Menace to The J'ubllc Health 'ome la theiinlne nfa Trlfllnir lHnonlcr. Since the first outbreak or the grip, several yearn bko, the disease has been rate-fully studied. It has not Improved on acquaintance. It Is still regarded as one of the moet treacherous and dungeroiin of maladies, nil the more to Ik- feared be-eause it most ufien comes In the of a simple cold.

Its true character Is alwavn rei otntzed. until the victim lies moaning with a pain that presses on every ornan, and wrlkcs to the very bone. The grip rasteim ilelf upon people who worry, work too much. e.M too much, or too little, pjimsc themselves to cold and wet. and so set to lie weak, thin-bloom! njui run dow n.

Clearly, the way to avoid the grip is to overcome the conditions producing It. The efllcacy of a souiel alcoholic siliriiiltnt in generally admitted, and the peculiar adVMntnge of Duffy's Pure Malt liinky makes it the ntont successful of all preventive remedies. A snecite. a cough and a slight ctilU. are the first symptoms of grip.

They indicate defective circulation and general weakness. KtienKth, npietite and full reiiulsr circulation follow the use of Duffy's Pure Mult hiskey, The Insidious little cold never bet ome anything more ferious and in a fw days It kocs away Cool riddance to it. The grip Is now prevalent In the Northern nrt F.astem states, nnd the weather has favored its progress. It is likely to stick until sprlna. How to cure it is an Interesting question.

Althrvugti the sewer department ha Tiot been so artive this year a last, mill a poodly amount of work has been done. In an interview with Engineer Cadwell, dork of the board, "The Cmjr-Rnt" reporter horned facts of ponernl Interest. Sewer conetruetion (Jurine; the past yearhas been (Hmflned to a few sections.

The nfrthejt sewer and the extension of the Glen Ptreet sewer were comt'leted. a pipe sewer laid on Cherry street and a similar one on Kdson street. It was in the const rurt ion of the Glen street sewer that faulty brli ks were used, from which somethinfr more win be heard In the future. On Cherry etreet 1,900 feet of pipe sewer have been laid and on Edson street a sewer of 600 feet. This is a total of 4.0i feet laid during the year at a cost of about J-Ojjito.

Last year two and nine-tenths miles were laid, about three-itimes as much as was done the year before. The total amount of sewerage In the city at present Is 102,271.28 feet, most of the central streets being well provided for. IMirtner the year ten catch basins and fifteen receivers have been constructed in different parts of the city, against eiKht catrh basins and eieht receivers during' the year preceding. One more catch basin remains to be constructed on North street. Although the central part of the city is well provided with sewers, there are certain Rations of the city which are entirely unprovided.

West Main street and the side streets running from it beyond Vine or Curtis street, the northwest slope of Walnut hill, tin lulling Hart, Ijinwond, Orlswold, Wlnthrop, Highland. Columbia, Cambridge, the lnVer end of Kensington street and the Shuttle Meadow road are examples. Jt is well known that any section without sewers grows slowly and so the people are anxious to secure the accommodations. Work on the Cherry street fs-tension will probably be begun lrt the spring. The HfWw commissioners are already looking: over plans for the ptirllicntlon of sewage.

It is usual In all systems of purification to separate the sewage and the storm water. The solid matter In sewage under this system Is only about 2 per while under the system now in vogue here it is less than Mie-fourth of one per cent. The greater the volume, the greater the dlHiculty in purifying it. When it bii-omes nec essary in the future to bring about this change here, it is probable that a new system of pipe sewers Will have to be built to carry off the sewage proper, while the present system will be used for the storm water, For the former a twenty to wenty-foiir-lnch pipe is all that is needed. Meriden, where this system Is in vogue, has only an eighteen-ineh pipe.

As soon as the plant at New Kochelle is in working order the sewer commissioners will my a visit to it In order to obtain an idea of the plan for chemical purification, rtrotherhoo! of St. Andrew.

A goodly number of people interested in the higher education were assembled in Normal Hall last evening to listen to the lecture on the life of the ancient Creeks by professor Hernadotte I'errin of Yale University. The lecture, which was both interesting and instructive, was illustrated with stereopticon views, showing many of the scenes and clr- V-uinstanees surrounding Hellenic life 'and customs.

Professor Ben in, in own-r. ins his address, spoke feelingly of his "early association with New Britain "people and staled that it was always pleasant to ijpeak on the subject of Interest to one, but of especial pleasure I to speak to people with whom one has more than a passing acquaintance.
