AID. cullerton said scavenger work had been
done easily in his ward. It vas truo that the
streets were not paved. Justice must DO done
in the case.
Mr. Downie said that he kept every thing going
nicely until the horse disease came, and then
winter followed. The occupants Of private
residences generally neglected. to plaea the

away. When the garbage was not ready for re-

made false report. There was nigger In the

Aid. Heath knew that in his neighborhood the
citizens did not put their sviu into proper vos-
se1s for the scnyenger, but threw it into the al

did his duty7
Dr. Rauch said it was the duty OF tho Board
AID. Heath snid then let the Board Of Health
do it's duty aud make the citizens perform their
portion Of the contract.
DR.. Rauch said it was hard matter to sue the
offenders. There gyas as much fault on the part
Of the citizens as on the scavengor- II was i'm
practicable for the ecagengor work to extend
over the city. Where population WAS sparse,
there were cows to eat the ewill The vessels
provided by the citizens were stolen, or their
contents frozen solid. Tho difficulties in the
scavenger work we're greater this year than any
other. There was no doubt that the man had
done more than he was paid for.
AID. McGennias said, that the work had been
abominably done, Ill we're fully agreed. Tho
great trouble was that the contractor had not
been paid enough.
Aid. Cullerton said that he had to mike re-
port. What kind Of report could he make7
AID McGeunlss said there was only one re-
port to make, and that Was to the effect that the
work had been abominably performed, and that

Simplicity in Living.

TO live simply, to master and control
our expenditure, is sore need in all
classes. The influences which surround
us, the ideas in which we have been
brought up, the habits which we fall
into as a second nature, all sway in the
same direction. Every family and every
class seems to have caught hold of the
skirts of the one above it, and to be
desperately holding on. Well, as Mr..
Goodwin Smith says, the best thing
they can do is to let go-th only thing
indeed which will give themselves any
comfort or make their lives of real use
in their generation. The moment they
will do SO, and begin resolutelv to live
without regard to what their neighbor
on the right spends on carriages, or
their neighbor on the left in upholstery,
they will find themselves rich for all
good purposes. From that moment it
can no longer he said of us with truth,
that we dare not trust our wits to make
our houses pleasant to our friends, and
80 we buy ice-creams. And this most
needed OF all reforms is Just the one
which every soul of us can carry through
tor himself or herself. We cannot
sweep our whole street No doubt.
But every one of us can sweep our own
doorstep, and, if he will do it quietly
ana regularly, anon his right and left
hand neighbors follow, and before long
the whole street Is swept. And in this
ana ON this means, can almost all those
social tangles which we have been
glancing ut casually, this evening. I've
set right. Simple living! To it even
the great household Question OF 60.
the most ridiculous and the mos, harass-
ing of social troubles, will in the end
yield, will begin at once to look not
wholly insoluble and hopeless. Speak
ing OF this sore question in the nation.
