For THE RECORD.
MALARLA, SEWER Gas, ETO.

These are the popular terms now used to
attract the attention of the people of the State
at large, of the cities, towns and places of
summer resort, and then to intimate that suf-
feriug, impaired health and even death must
result if those dangerous elements are permit
ted to generate and exist.
So completely have these ideas taken hold
of the medical faculty and scientists through
out the country, that five years ago sanitary
association was organized in New Jersey, and
ON December 7th last the sixth annual session
was held at Elizabeth, and from the Nc,o
Jersey Journal which reported the proceed
ings, we make extracts
Papers were read and statements made that
were highly instructive, and in the discussions
which followed other facts were added and
generally confirmed.
At a previous meeting subjects for men,
bers, on rather committees of members, had
been assigned, and they were ably responded
to.
J. G. Bayles, editor of the hon Age. made
a report on 6 Inspection of Buildings" in
which he said broad common sense must be
the rule (of Inspection, and it Is far better
than theory The sense of smell cannot be
relied upon to ferret out dangerous odors, for
every house has its characteristic smell, which
often overcomes the stranger, in which the

Clearing sales occur at the
close of every season; but
they commonly are sales of
broken assortments and odd
garments, and of small guam

Here toward the end of
our most successful season
we are clearing out what

Now the sole reason fer
selling this mass of valuable
clothing, without even an at
tempt at profit, is that stated
above, which may be put into
different words, thus: To get
our stock into the most at
tractive condition, without
regard to immediate profit.
And SO, while this sale is
going on, the choicest, most

Last Thursday morning was thought to
be about the coolest day that we were likely
to have this winter. DIR. G. H. Larson Their
mometer indicated 50 below zero at 9 A. NJ.
and 100 below at and o'clock A. nj. Other
thermometers in our city indicated 80 as the
lowest. On Friday morning, the cold was
less intense, the thermometer being at about
40 below zero. But on Saturday morning the
thermometer fairly outdid itself in this Sec
ton. At o'clock A. M. it indicated 900 be-
low zero at DR.. Larson's residence. AT Mr..
Reuben P. Ely's, not far from the DOCTORS,
the thermometer stood at 2lo below, and at
Rev. FL. G. Williams residence, on the oppo-
site side of tie street 100 below. This is the
lowest the thermometer has ever reached in
this city, SO far as any record has been kept.
Sixteen degrees, we are told, is the lowest
point heretofore reached by any well reguat-

Mr.. J. H. Butterfoss is now manufactur-

a new kind Of can for fruit, which he will use
for packing next season. The cans are solder
ed on the outside, and there is, therefore, no
chance for solder or rosin to adhere or get
upon the inside of the can. II has been dis
covered that the solder, which contains lead,
is sometimes poisonous, and rosin injuries the
favor of the fruit. BY the new plan these
objections will be entirely obviated.
