New SANITARY MovEMENTs.-There' has
been an unquestoned awaking over the
land on the subject of better sanitary re.
form. The scourges that have made such
desolation in certain cities in the South,
especially Memphis, the past two years has
aroused an awakening to the Importance
of the subject. The causes why malarial
disases have been 30 affecting to Ger.
tain cities is q matter for investigation, for
the reasons may have had an existence for
years in some insidous but undesirable
form. The same thing may apply to fami-
lies and neighborhoods as to cities, though
in much more circumscribed form. These
poisonous influences that cause so much
sickness and death can be found out by
scientific research and we are glad that the
proper efforts are being made in this di-
rection. In noting the evidences Of move.
