NEW BRI “IN DAILY HERALD. WEDNESDAY, MARC -~ DEMCE PRAVER OF POPE BENEDICT X1 Which Shall Be .Offered in Catholic Chirches Sunday. New York, March 17.—The text of the Peace prayer which Pope Benedict XV, has directed shall be offered Catholic churches on Passion Sunday, March 21, has been received and is being distributed throughout the coun- try. It follows: “Dismayed by the horrors of a war which is bringing ruin to peoples and nations, we turn, O Jesus, to Thy most loving Heart as to our last hope. O God of Mercy, with tears we invoke Thee to end this fearful scourge; O Xing of peace, we humbly implore the peace for which we long. From Thy Sacred Heart Thou didst shed forth over the world divine Charity, so that discord might end and love alone might reign among men. During Thy life on earth Thy Heart beat with ten- der compassion for the sorrows of men; in this hour, made terrible with burning hate, with bloodshed and with slaughter, once more may Thy Divine Heart be moved to pity. Pity the countless mothers in anguish for the fate of their sons; pity the num- berless families now bereaved of their pity Europe over which broods such havoc and disaster. Do Thou inspire rulers and peoples with counsels of meekness, do Thou heal the discords that tear the nations asunder; Thou who didst shed Thy Precious Blood that they might live as brothers, bring men together once more in loving harmony. And as once before to the cry of the Apostle Peter; Save us, Lord we perish, Thou didst answer with' words of mercy, and didst still the raging waves, SO0 now deign to hear our trustful prayer, and give back to the world peace and tranquility. . “And do Thou, O most Holy Virgin, as in other times of sore distress, be now our help, our protection and our safeguard. Amen.” The prayer was composed by His Holiness. It is accompanied by a de- cree from Cardinal Gasparri, Secretary of State for the Vatican, prescribing in detail the form of services for Pas- sion Sunday. in Native eggs 27c doz.

Va., March 17.—The national guard of West Virginia will consist of only one man after June 30, when the present fiscal year expnres, unless steps are taken in the mean- time to borrow money with which to support the state militia. Governor Hatfield vetoed that part of the ap- propriation bill passed by the last legislature providing for $65,000 a year for the maintenance of the na- tional guard.

The board of public works, which is empowered to borrow money to keep the wolf from the door of state institutions, will meet this week, but it is not believed that any effort to aid the militia will be made.

We are a nation of meat eaters and our blood is filled with uric acid, says a well-known authority, who warns us to be constantly on guard against kidney trouble. | The kidneys do their utmost to free the blood of this irritating acid, but become weak from the overwork; they get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and thus the waste is re- | tained in the blood to poison the en- tire system. When your kidneys ache and feel ke lumps of lead, and you have sting- ing pains in the back or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment, or the blad- der is irritable, obliging you to seex relief during the night; when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid sto- mach or rheumatism in bad weather, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a table- spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com- bined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimu- late clogged kidneys, to neutralize the ! acids in urine so it is no longer a | source of firritation, thus ending urinary and bladder disorders.

The bill, as introduced provided that no railroad which had had a system of commutation fares in force for four years shall abolish or alter such commutation fares ex ept to change the rates charged there- fore. Mr. Spock introduced amendment providing for reference of the question of fares to the utilities commission. The mcasure was strongly opposed, Speaker Frank E. Healy | making his first appearance before | any legislative committee to oppose it. | the railroads com- an Commutation Fares. B. I. Spock, for the New Yoik, New Haven & Hartford Railroad company, speaking on House Biil No. 816, con- cerning commutation fares, presentedl an amendment providing that the rates charged for conmuiaion , or the system of commuiation shall not be changed except on approval of the public utilities commission. Under the present system the c¢ mpany had 3 ing rates of commutation in the ate between different of the same mileage. This was to the provision of the law providing a ratio between the commutation rates of 1865 and the way fares. This had giv- en rise to many complaints. In Rhode Jsland, Massachuse nd New York the utilities commis. icn had taken this matter in hand and had es.abiished uniform rates. The cost of operation of the railroad had increased to such a point that the road had got to get more money. for its transportation. If the bill becomes an act everybody would be given a right to be heard by the utilities commission. To equalize the rates will mean, in many in- stances, the reduction of rates. In oth- ers it may mean an increase. The util- ities commission now has the right to make much regulation, if the bill was enacted. The purpose was to make the | rates in Connecticut the same as in | other states. The railroad company | should not be compelled to receive in | 1915 for transportation the same | rates that it did in 1865. i A. B. Smith, general passenger | agent for the New Haven,” sald | there were as many different com- mutation rates in Connecticut as there were hairs on his head. He cited differences in rates now exist- | ing, to show the incoasistency of the | rates. The interstate commerce | commission had accepted the rates | of Rhode Island, Massachusetts and New York, as a fair and just rate. The road had voluntarily established scholars’ tickets at half the rate for adults. Speaker Healy on Deck. Speaker Healy asked what the road would lose if it reduced all commu- tation rates to the minimum the main lines. Mr. Smith was unable to on. large number of other questions nature were asked. Mr. Smith in one of his answers said that railroad could live and carry a passenger for one-quarter cent a mile. E. M. Yeomans of Andover felt that an adjustment of the rates would drive people out of the country. Moore Veices Opinion, E. Allen Moore of New Britain didn’t think a horizontal rate for commutation in all parts of the state would work. He pointed out where the expenses would be heavier in cer- tain sections. Mr. Spock points due on A a similar no said that the interstatc that a shipper of one barrel of freight should receive the same rate the man shipping 10,000 a week. If it was discriminatory in one instance, why wasn’t it discriminatory that a man traveling once a month should pay a higher rate than the one traveling four or five times a week. He main- tained that the road had to curtail its service or go under. The ques- tion of rates was one for the utilities commission.
