. Prepare for Cholera 20.


Under this head the Relief Committee of
the Young Mems Christian Association of
Chicago have issued the following circular,
copies Of which are for distribution. The
directions herein contained are web worthy
of being needed: a.
There is every reason to expect that the
cholera will be here by the middle of May
or the first of June It's victims will be
principally:
1st. Those who use intoxicating drinks.
I'd. Those who are not clearly in their
persons and houses.
Sd. Those who are IRE gular in their hab-
its, keeping unreasonable hours, eating
irregularly, &c.
4fh. Those living in filthy, dirty localities
TO PREPARE FOR CHOLERA.
1st. Be scrupulously cleanin person, bath
ing the body daily, an keeping the entire
clothing clean.
I'd. Clean thoroughly, and whitewash your
rooms, outhouses and premises generally.
Sd. See that no swill, garbage, or other
refuse matter is thrown either on your lot,
street or alley. Clean up thoroughly your
whole premises, in doors and out, and set an
example of cleanliness to your neighbors.
4th. If your landlord refuses or neglects
to do his duty in putting his houses and lots
in proper order, report him to the Health
Officer or our Visitor in your district.
9th. Abstain from all intoxicating drinks,
ale and beer, as well as whiskey.
9th. Use simple, wholesome food, thor
oughly cooked, avoiding stale vegetables or
tainted meats. Do not give way to fear or
panic. This viii increase your danger
Cholera win in most cases yield to skilful
treatment if taken in the first stages.
Watch for the first SYMPTOM, which is usually
diarrhea. Do not neglect it for single
hour, however mild il may be. Delays are
dangerous. Avoid all nostrums and adver-
tised " cholera medicines" (most of them
will do more harm than good Apply at
once to some reliable physician. None of
our physicians will refuse their services at
such time to the poorest.
Lastly, but first in Importance, prepare
for it by giving your heart to the Lord Jesus
Christ Then you viii be fitted for either
life or death. You may not fall by cholera
this summer. But death is certain to all
and nav come to you soon. If yoa are
Christian you are safe; if not, yoc are IN
safe, and cannot be at peace. /" Be ye also
ready, for in such an hour as ye think not
the Son Of Man cometh,'
