Our City-Its Health.

Time was when Plymout was consider
ed one of the most unhealthy localities in
Northern Indiana; and not without
cause. But time has brought about a
change. Marshall County can now
boast of being quite as healthy ais any
county in the west, and for the last two
years, no town or citywithin one humid
red miles of this place, has been so free
from disease as Plymouth. Our forests
have been cleared away and the surface of
the country has been drained of its sur
plus water Vegetation is not suffered to
decay and poison the air as had been tne
case in years past We hopefully look
forward to the time when our neighbor-
ing cities and towns will cease to urge
against Plymouth, that it is unhealthy.
Property is comparatively cheap-rents
are low, and business generally good; but
it might be better; and will be, if our
people are active in their own interests,
and let people abroad know just what
kind of country we have.

To Parents.

The habit of pushing the carriage so
that children are rolled along backwards,
is a practice that deserves the severest
conformation. Ifyou don't believe that
it is a very uncomfortable mode of pro-
gre ssion-if riding backwards can be so
terned-get into vehicle and try it
yours elves. 1t is not only disagreeable.
but positively injurious There are many
whom it nauseates, and certain persons
even vomit from this cause. Is it reason
able to suppose then that children can be
conveyed in this manner with impunity ?
Common sense answers-ssNo."
Put yourself under the dominion of
that greatest of tyrants-Fashion, if you
see proper; but don't subject your child
rem who are powerless to his rule. Look
to their health and comfort, ard don't
transport them backwards in their cabs
merely because it is fashionable, and per
haps a little easier than the old way OF
pulling them.

We do not suppose that the trustees in
tended to have it understood, by their
vote, that Mr.. Langenbaugh is not quail
fed to fill the position, nor that he would
not have discharged the duties of the

been elected. Mr.. Mcdonald is an old
