The Norwich Bulletin thus calls seri- ous attention to and sensibly discusses the tuberculous question now -so wide- ly interesting farmers, cattle raisers generaly,and physicians and scientists, everywhere. It says:— '" “While the report of the cattle com- missioners claims that 1 per cent. of all the cattle in the state are tuberculous, -there seems to have been no attempt to trace the outgo of milk from the dis- eased herds and to discover if among milk takers tuberculosis has developed in families where it never has been be- fore. This may not be the duty of the commissioners, but it ought to be. The reason the state is going to great expense to stamp out the disease is be- cause it is believed thatit is transmitted by the use of the milk of diseased cows to the human family. “The Hartford Courant” calls attention to the fact that tuberculosis has decreased among the people in the same period that it has in- creased among cattle. and claims that “under such circumstances the peril of it perceptably lessens,” which is true. . There is much opposition to the law and the manner in which the work is done, and “The Courant” says: “Care- ful and conscientious men and as suc- cessful cattle breeders as can be found in Conneecticut doubt the tests in some ‘cases; they question the safety of the w'ay in which some slaughters have been conducted; they are skeptical as to the evidence of disease that is said to have been produced sometimes by the well paid veterinares; they do not like the manner in which the arbitrary power to quarantine has been exer- cised; they are led to question whether public sentiment is with the commis- sion, when they catch an employeeo of the boaid writing with of it for the newspapers to be sent in by outsiders as unsolicited tributes; they object to the size of the hole that the bills make in the treasury, and they can’t help no- ticing that, so far, ali ut a third of that money beacons to the commissioners and others employed. They feel with Governor Cooke that, if this thing goes on as it has begun, we shall have an awful bill to pay for dead cattle well sold to the state.” There is no doult that this Legisla- ture has a duty to perform in this direc- tion and it does not seem impossible for it to improve the law and make it more satisf..ctorv than it is to day. “The Content" is right when it says: “This tuberculin discovery is still in a condi- tion to ju t fy a policy of ‘go slow,’ and most Cclfmlnly to call for great tact in its application.” ._--—-——<- Dr. Barnard’s Birthday.

Until lately Connecticut was the cue- mv’s country. The people of the State have long suffered. Mauv have no relief by day or rest ' by night. Among the thousands, few were able to tell the cause of their sufferings. And the enemy ruled. But a champion came. California Catarrh Cure undertook to relieve the oppressed people. And the enemy, catarrh, that had its grasp on nearly every citizen will soon be driven from the old Nutmeg State. Already the people rejoice. California Catarrh Uure has won their confidence and this is the way it does it: Among the people in Connecticut who have used California Catarrh Cure is W H. Sayles, the well known woolen manufacturer, of Dayville, Conn. Mr. Sayles suffered from catarrh, and knows what he is talking about when he says: “You may use my name in any way you see fit in advertising C. C. 0., Caliiornia Catarrh Cure. I had a pretty bad case, and every one knows what a bad case of catarrh is like. I was advised to use 0. C. C. and I tried it. I am glad I did. It is a wonderful medicine and a great cure for catarrh. I know so much of its good qualities thdt I give it my unqualified endorse- ment." Hundreds of citizens of the Norwalks are learning for themselves how true are praises of C. C. 0. Sold at R. H. Plaisted’s, So. Norwalk, 50 cents; three times as much, 31. Hoyt’s Theatre.
