The State Board of Health has issued a
circular emitted Rules and Regulations for
Local Boards Of Health" It contains list
of bylaws to be adopted by towns and the
following directed to the municipal officers of
towns:
The State Board of Health hereby calls
attention TO the law which requires the munich
pal officers Of town to perform all the du-
ties OF health officers, unless the town, at its
annual meeting, has chosen health-eommit-
tee, health officer, or a board of health.
(Revised Statutes, chapter IA, sections, IA,
10 and 34.)
The necessity of strict compliance with
sanitary laws at all times apparent to those
familiar with the subject, is peculiarly ur-
gent at the present time, when this country
is threatened with an invasion of epidemic
cholera; and the State board of health, de-
sirous Of aiding, in the discharge of their du.
ties, thOse to whom are entrusted the interests

panying model. and secure their adoption as
bylaws of the town, Cor ordinances of the

other section can be omitted without great
disadvantage The regulations when adopted
should b. printed il C .nvenient form, and q
copy paced IN every household. Without
this universal diffusion of information, the
desired result cannot be attained.

The Orono correspondent of the Bangor
Wing, writes: Happening to be over to
Webster station Friday afternoon, it was
found that the station agent had turned the
station into miniature castle garden. A
poor lone Frenchman was found there with
three small children, who had arrived the
night before and had no money or friends and
wanted to get to Augusta. The station agent,
very genial fellow, and an exception to
many of the profession in this regard, solicit
ed money enough to pay the fare, gave them
the use of the depot for the night. while the
ladies of the place saw that the little ones
were properly clothed and fed. They left
on Conductor Hathsway's train in the after
noon.

afflicted with the suicidal fever Saturday fore
noon. On arising she acted strangely and
told sick person in the house that she was
eoing away, not to come back again. She
then proceeded to point on the river bank
opposite the Maine Central car shops. waded
into the river up to her arms,
laid her head down against rock and COM
menced to screech at the top of her voice.
This aroused the residents in the vicinity and
e Gordon, rushing down, dragged her from
the water, taking her to house near by.
She was given some dry garments, and after
wards went to her boarding house. Troubles
which she had experienced caused the young
woman to act in this strange manner.
