Lock Into the Back Yard

Many back yards are an abOmi-
nation to the eye and nose. One
finds in them all sorts of refuse
from oyster shells to old boots.
Here the slOps of the kitchen are
poured to increase the OdOrS which
ought to warn every healthful per-
son of the malaria influence breed
ing there, to break out eventually in
feverS or diptheria. If any member
of the family dies from one of these
diseases, his death is probably la
mented as "mysteriOus dispense
ton of Divine Providence" but if
the minister would visit the back
yard he would say that death was
caused solely by a violation of by
gienic law. a very strong argu-
ment against a dirty back yard is
the spirit OF deception which 1t Is
apt to foster in the young members
of the family, for it is a constant
deceit to present a clean and at
tractive front yard to the gaze of
the people passing by, while the
back ward is not fit to be seen.
Children should be taught to be
clean for the sake of cleanliness,
and not because outsiders are like
ly to criticise them. Do not allow
anything to be thrown about. Have
drains made to convey all slOps en-
tirely from the house. VI axe good
walks and let the ground have afine
covering of grass, no weeds. Make
it rule to have the back yard at
all times as clean as the front one.

His OutspOken Opinion,

The very marked testimonials from College
Professors, respectable Physicians and other geu-
tlemen of intelligence and character to the value
of Warmers SAFE Cure, published in the edito
rial columns Of our best newspapers, have greatly
surprised me. Many Of these gentlemen know,
and reading their testimony ] was impelled to
purchase some bottles of Warmers SAFE Cure
and anayzeit. Besides, took some, swallowing
three times the prescribed quantity. l am salts
fed the medicine is not in drious and will frank
lv add that If found myself the victim Of a Sc
rious kidney trouble should use this prepare
tiou. The truth is, the medical profession stands
dazed aud helpless in the presence of more than
one kidney malady, while the testimony Of hun
dreds of Intelligent and very reputable gentlemen
hardly leaves room to doubt that Mr.; h. II. War
ner has fallen upon one Of those happy discover
les which occasionally bring help TO suffering
humanity.

Our Jail contractor says hess ad-
vancing the brick masking busness Is
rapidly as possible, by digging mp the
material, freezing it and generally
doing what is necessary il order to
have bricks enough at an early saa
ment. We need that jail, if we ever
needed anything in the shape Of a
prison, and can't haze the use of it
any too soon. We know some PeO-
pie do not like to i've in Jail, but then
we can't all be gratifed in our wants
and preferences; and nov, since we
come to think of it, We can't recall a
single pers9nIs pane, Fho eyer said
he did like Jail as residence, and
we wonder, (this being the case) why
jails are built at all. We have an idea
that there is large majority Of men
in ibis world who would much prefer
a bar room. Then we have noticed
also, there are good many who don't
care much about Q church.
