Humpty Dumpty,

Tony Denler's excellent company ap-
pears at Harper's Theatre, on Saturday
evening in "Humpty Dumpty'. The
troupe is first class 10 all respects. We
clip the following from an exchange.
Tony Denier, the well-known clown and
manager and director of Pantomime Com
panies, is an artist in his line, being the
only one of the numerous successors of the
inimitable Fox at all worthy to bear that
actor s mantle. There is such temptation
for clown to be little coarse aud vulgar,
that when be resists, as Grimaldi does alto
gether, he is deserving of the special rec
ognition which we now take pleasure 10 Civ
ing Grimaldi. - GeUelGnd Herald, Jan. 20.

Health Precaustons.

During this changeful weather the
utmost preeaution should be used. This
city has been kept comparatively free from
sickness thus far, and much Is due to the
stringency Of police regulations requiring
everybody 10 keep the alleys clean. Ac-
cumulated garbage, and refuse matter
will do more to bring about contagious dis
eases than anything else, especially IT 1t
Law for any length Of time. As q further
precaution the Board of Health has adopt
ed the following rules which everyone will
do we'll to observe:
1. The most scrupulous cleanliness in
and about dwellings should be observed:
Especially should cellars be kept clean and
well aired, and if damp should be iuml-
gated with sulphur. All refuse should be
Immediately burned or covered with earth,
after being carried away. About every
house and into its every room should sun
light and air be daily and freely admitted.
The liberal use of disinfectants ever
returns an ample reward, aud many oil
them are quite inexpensive. Cleanliness
pure water. good food. and warm clothing
are the great safeguards against infectious
| diseases.
2. The rules against infection are
that no house refuse, filth. excrementa
matter. or foul, dirt producing, noxious
gases, should be allowed to remain about
inhabited premises All occupied dwell,
Ings should have an abundant supply OIL
| pure fresh air. All water used for cook
ing should come from uncoutaminated
| sources.
8. To absorb moisture and putriC
fluids fresh stone lime should be pulveriz
ed and scattered over places to be dried
in damp rooms it should be placed in pans
in liberal quantities. To absorb putrit
gases the lime should be mixed with al
equal part of pulverized charcoal.
4. To disinfect privies. cesspools
drains, sewers, and all vessels AM
places receiving the discharges of til,
sick, there is nothing better than a solu
ton made by dissolVing ten pounds of cop
peras in ten gallons of water, and addini
to this one pint of impure carbolic acid.

amount every three weeks during the no

than the fumes Of sulphur or sulphurou

The Way to Act.
From Ill. State Register

The democrats in congress have deter
mined, it is reported, to push the appro-
priation bills through this week, and then
October or November. 1t is to be hope
that the report is true, and that the ma
jority will no longer tolerate the fiibuster-
ing of the Jacobin minority. The major
ity in congress have the right to pass ap-
preparation bills for such purposes as they
choose, and the president has the right to
veto the bills if he chooses-the majority
and the president being responsible to
the people for their acts. Already liberal
appropriation bills have been passed by
congress and vetoed by the president, and
the only defense for bis action is the pitt
full and absurd plea that he is not RESPONSE
BILE for his vetoes, but that the congress
which passed the bills is responsible for
the fact that the bills which they passed
did not become laws. Let the congress
put stop to all this fooIishness by the
passage of the appropriation bills with
| just such restrictions IS to the method OF
expanding the money as it pleases, and
then if the president vetoes the bills, or,
possibly, without waiting for his action,
let ths congress adjourn and 90 home.
Then, if Mr. Hayes. or any OF his bench
men, 60 monkeying about the polls with
soldiers or deputy United States marshaIs
or federal supervisors, there will be nc
trouble in dealing with him or with them.
We don't believe he will veto the appro
lpriation bills, and thus leave the whole
hungry horde of federal offceholders with,
out means to contribute to the campaign
funds, but if he chooses to do SO, let US
lhope that he will at least be manly enough
to take the responsibility for bis veto and
not plead an official baby act

sive, fire is more necessary to protect
us than in the cold of winter; and the
rooms of dwelling should never be left
without the means of warming and dry
ing. Investigations have shown that
many of the most fatal diseases are
caused by the germs Of vegetable and
animal life, and that a humid atmos-
phere is most favorable for their pro-
pagation. 1t is, therefore, neglecting
to avail ourselves of the great discover
les of the age, and failing to protect
ourselves from scourges which so fear
fully affilct families, when we ignore
the dangers which surround US. Apart
ments exposed to the full action of the
sun may be less comfortable in hot
weather than those from which the suns
rays are excluded, but they are more
wholesome, and when contagious dis
eases prevail in closely built cities it is
found that inmates of houses on that
side of the street exposed to the sun are
less liable to be attacked, while the
greatest number of sick are always
found where there is the least exposure
to the great disinfector-the sun.
