New-York tribune., 1868-11-11
HEALTH AND DECENCY.

The grayest question connected with the
problem of civilization relates to the proper
disposition of the rejectamenta Of human di-
gestion.
The supply of food and clothing. the shell
tering of orr persons from cold and heat edu-
cation, and entertainment, these have been
more or less successfully secured; but the
decent and complete removal of human ex-
cremcnt, without its complete loss as manure,
and without poisoning the water of wells and
streams, is a problem which has, thus far,
met no satisfactory solution.
In The London Times of October g..
there is an account OF discussion re-
Gently held at Birmingham on the subject
of the health of towns, i'll which there
occurs the statement that "The growth
"of civilization means the growth of towns,
"and the growth of towns means, at present,
"a terrible sacrifice of human life" 1t might
have been said that the existence OF all, IN
town and country, is an unconscious struggle
against tho perncious effect of the msmanage-
ment of focal matter.
The plain instructions laid down by Moses
deuteronomy, xiii IL and l3) have been so
long disregarded and men have so long
neglected all precautiOn in the matter, or,
when they have taken precaution, have acted
80 unwisely, that untold suffering and loss OF
life have been entaied upon the race, and we
have come, finally, to accept as matter OF
course the danger, the waste, and the offensive
ness that arise from universal neglect OF the
panest requirement of intelligent living.
In the same article in The Times. it is stated
that "In the country, all difficulty is avoided
"by the Earth Closet system, which stood so
"seyerc test at Wimbledon this year."
We have investigated this question of the
Earth Closet, and are satisfied that it offers, III
all respects, the much needed relief. and think
that it should find place speedily IN every
house in the land. To rich and poor in the
city and on the farm, it promises the greatest
benefits in an absolute immunity from the
ofiensveness of the private closet and the dis
gusting accompaniments of the usual methods
of removal.
Especially for the sick-roOm, where our ne
cessties become absolutely degrading, and
where the seeds OF disease are often carried III
the vessels, it must become an indispensable
necessity wherever it is known. SO strong Is
our conviction that the principles of this sys-
TEN should become speedily and universally
known. that we have employed Col. George L.
W..ring. jr. (the author OF "The Elements Of
Agriculture" which we have recently pub
lished), who has given much study to the ques-
ton of sanitary drainage, to investigate the
subject, and to prepare pamphlet. with work
ing drawings, and full account of the ap-
paratus and of its construction and mode of use.
The result is n work which is now for sale
at our counter, entitled Earth Closets, How
"to Make Them and How to Use Them
which will be mailed to any address on the re-
ceipt OF twenty five cents.
