Without comment, and with tears all
unused to being wept, We quote from
the Auburn Advertiser:
"There are no business men in the
world 90 subject to the sponging pro-
cess as the publishers of newspapers.
It really seems that public corpora
tions, societies and associations in gen.
eral, and many persons have funny
notion about printers. They think we
ought to print, puff and publish all for
nothing, that is, free gratis. In other
words, they seem astonished if we ask
half price for an obituary notice, card
Of thanks, tribute Of respect, personal
communication or anything that only
interests q few persons and not the
general reader. They forget that it
takes money to pay the compositors,
to buy ink, type and paper, and lastly,
they often forget to even thank you for
gratuitously serving them or the pub

A Truthful Sketch

Let man fail in business, what an

ed that would not have seen the light
for months to come, but for the misfor-
tunes of the debtor. If it is paid, well
and good; if not the scowl of the sheriff
perhaps, meets him at the corner. A
man that has never failed knsws but
little of human nature.
In prosperity he sails along gently,
waited by favoring smiles and kind
words from everybody. He prides
himself on his name and spotless char
acter, and makes his boast that he has
not an enemy in the world. Alas the
change. He looks at the world in a
different light when reverses come
upon him. He hardly knows how to
move, or to do this thing or the other
there are spies about him, 8 writ is
ready at his back. To know what kind
of stuff the world is made of, person
must be unfortunate. and stop paying
once in his lifetime. If he has kind
friends, then they are made manifest.
A failure is moral seive, it brings out
the wheat and shows the chaff. A man
thus learns that the words and pretend.
ed good will are not and do not consti
tute real friendship.

State Board Of Health.

The State Board Of Health, which
was organized in 1876, and consisting
of seven persons. appointed by the
Governor, has been doing a great deal
of good by the several and united labors
of its members. Notwithstanding the
labors OF the Board are to be gratuitous,
the members have prepared very able
papers, which are of vital interest to
the citizens of the state, in regard to
health and sanitary precautions. The
first annual report contains papers on
the following subjects:
Small Pox and its Prophylaxis. by DR.. E. L.
Griffin, of Fond du Lac.
Sewerage and Drainage, BY DR.. Solon Marks,
of Milwaukee.
Ventilation Of Pablo Buildings and Dwelling
Houses, by James Bintlin. of Janesville.
Mental Hygiene by DR.. John Favin, OF
| Madison.
Foods and Domestic Beverages, by DR.. o. G.
| Selden, of TomAh.
Registration, by DR.. Joseph Hobbins, OF
Madison.
We will refer and make extracts from
they treat of vital interests to the peo
pie.
As knowledge of vital statistics liet
at the foundation of the successful study
of sanitary science, the Board greatly
desires to secure general sentiment il
favor of the observance of the registra
ton law of the state, and for the conven
lent reference of those who may b.
willing to aid in this object, it note tn,
following points:
l. A law Of the State requires, under
penalty of not less than fifty dollars
that all persons solemnizing Q marriage
shall within 80 days report the same te
the Register of the County in which the
ceremony was performed.
2. Physicians under similar penalties
are in like manner required to make
returns of all births and deaths occur
ing in their practice.
| 3. Blanks on which to make these
returns are provided by the state, and
may be obtained from any Register OF
Deeds in the state without cost.
4. Circulars calling attention to these
facts have recently been issued, botl
from the Office of the State Board Of
Health, and from the Office of the SEQ
retary of State, which have been SEM
to every physician, clergyman and jus
tice of the peace in Wisconsin, whose
