Antique brasses for sale at the Ori ental bazaar which opens Thursday evening in the Auditorium of Academic Hall. CAMBRIDGE, Ma-s., Dec. 2. It is the intention of those Harvard graduates who have taken the initiative in raising the Charles William Eliot fund, in rec ognition of his two score years of ser vice to the college and university, to conduct the subscription with as little publicity as possible. They feel that it is essentially a matter between the graduates, and that in order to make the subscription general it is better not to publish information concerning amounts subscribed. They desire that contributions be voluntary and include the largest possible number of gradu ates. For this reason F. L. Iligginson, '(53, who is the receiver of the subscriptions, was unwilling to make any definite statement today at his office, 50 State street. He said that not all the cir culars had yet been sent out to gradu ates. Unless the plans are changed there will be no statement of the fund until next spring, when at Commence ment it is likely that the committee which has charge of raising the fund will make a report to the graduates. The detailed work of the fund commit tee is being done through the office of the alumni association. The plan is to raise as large a fund as the graduates care to give and to incst the money, paying the income to Presi dent and Mrs. Eliot during their lives. Afterward the fund will be disposed of in accordance with the wishes of Tresident Eliot. The committee in charge is as follows: Charles Francis Adams. 'S3, of Boston; Alexander Agas siz, '55. of Cambridge; Joseph H. Choate, '52. of New York; T. Jefferson Coolidge, 50, of Boston; F. A. Delano, S5, of Chicago; Charles S. Fairchild.

A new treatment for tuberculosis of the bones, discovered by Dr. Emil Beck, of this city, has had a trial of five weeks at the Home for Crippled Children, and the results are said to have been remarkable. The .treatment, which promises to bring relief to a large percentage of sufferers from this form of the great white plague, is simplicity itself and consists for the most part of filling the cavity caused by the disease with a metallic substance, bismuth subnitrate, combined with a basis of vaseline. The discovery was incidental to tak ing an X-ray photo of a little invalid. The solution was applied to fi the out line of a tubercular abscess and beiii'.' left in the cavity, proved a healing agent. Dr. Beck told his discovery to Drs. John Ridlon and Wallace B!jn chard, at the Home for Destitute Crip pled Children and, in a five-weeks' trial, twenty out of forty crippled children were cured by the treatment. The formula contains thirty grams of bismuth subnitrate. combined with sixty grains of vaseline. The paste so formed is solid at the temperature of the body, but if a fever is induced, will run o:;i of the cavity. As the healing continues the mixture is absorbed. Medical men estimate that fully 5o per cent of all crippled children are suf fering from tubercular disorders.
