Statistics gathered by Depart- ment of Fine Arts show that since a fee has been charged for admis- sion to museums and picture gal- leries the number of visitors has steadily increased. The Louvre is the most frequent- ed. Then come the palaces of Ver- sailles and Fontainebleau, and the Abbey of Mont Saint-Michel. The additional resources furnish- ed by the charge for admission have enabled the department to increase the staff. It can now make per- manent a number of exhibits which hltherto it has only been possible to show to the public from time to time.

WEEK-ENDS RUN P GRUESOME RECORD 1937 Ahead of 1926 in Motor Yehicle Accidents Hartford, June 30 — One or more deaths, scores of injuries and prop- erty loss reaching thousands of dol- lars is the toll exacted of Connec- ticut motorists because of accidents cn each holiday, Saturday and Sun- day during the summer months, it is shown by statistics compiled by the state motor vehicle department. Accident totals for the gtate seldom fail to reach the 100 mark on such days during July, August and Sep-, tember, the figures show. July 4th and Labor Day have particularly bad | L Y 95 | Tutles, William Keefe, Harold Smith records, the latter holiday in 1925 providing the greatest one day to- tal, 157, in the accident history of the state. Sundays, when it is admit- ted the heaviest traffic of the week is abroad, regularly furnish the largest numb?r of accidents, but Sat- urday totals are not much lower. Inclement weather seams to have little effect on “week-end” accident totals, according to the figures. Un- favorable road conditions offset, ap- parently, the fact that traffic is light- er on cloudy and rainy days, or else motorists do not allow the weather to interfere with projected excur- sions. A sample month is provided 1926, when there were two bad-weather Sundays and two pleasant. The first Sunday of the month it rained and the accident total was 139. A cloudy day marked the third Sunday and tharc were 118 accidents. The weather wus pleasant on the other two Sundays and the accident totals were 133 ard 129 re- spectively. Unless there is considerable fm- provement, ‘“week-end” casualties this year will be numerous as in past year, and may possibly in- crease. The first thre Saturdays and Sundays of June produced more ac- cidents than the sarhe days of June, 19 The records for the Saturdays, \Which are particularly vad, are 119, 96 and 102 accidents, as ccinpared with 83, 103 and 42 for the corres- ponding days a year ago. Qctober has also become one of the “danger” months. Last year there were 1,105 week-ead accidents in October, an increase of 152 over the month in the previous year. The Sunday accidents reiched 552, despite the tact that only one of the five Sundays of the month was pleasant. Accident totals during the Satur- days and Sundays of July 1925 and were 863 and 778, r.spectively. r the next three months of each year, however, the 1926 totals were higher. In August, 1926, there were 1,132 accidents, as compared with 1.061 the previous year; in Septem- ber, 954, as compared with 80§, and in October, 1,105, as compared with 953, Figures for holidays give July 4, 1925, a total of 129 accidents, with two deaths listed. On the same day in 1926 there were 123 accidents and one death. On Labor Day, 1925, there were 157 accidents and one death, and the next yeaf 137 acci- dents and five deaths. Property damage on a busy day, when accidents go above the 100 mark, according to conservative esti- mates, average more than $2,000 as a result of the accidents.

Millions of Families Depend on Dr. Calfilfill’s Advice When I started to practice medi- cine, back in 1875, the needs for a laxative were not as great as they are today. People lived normal, quiet lives, ate plain, wholesome food, and got plenty of fresh air and sunshine. But even that early there were pills, tablets and salt waters for the relief of constipation, and artificial reme- dies made from coal tar, which I did not believe were good for human be- ings to put into their system. So I ‘wrote a prescription for a laxative to prescribe to my patients. The prescription for constitpation that I used early in my practice, and which I put in drug stores in 1892 under the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, is a liquid vegetable remedy, and I have never had rea- son to change it. I intended it for ‘women, children and elderly people, and they need just such a mild. safe, gentle bowel stimulant as Syrup Pepsin. I am gratifled to say that under successful management my prescrip- tion has proven its worth and is now the largest selling liquid laxative in the world. The fact that millions of bottles are used a year proves that it has won the confidence of people who needed it to get relief from headaches, biliousness, flatulence, in- digestion, loss of appetite and sleep, bad breath, dmmp-lu. colds and against permitting the army to at- tav tempt a flight from the United ers. States to Honolulu because resi- dents of California had raised $500,- 000 to promote a similar flight.
