CHOLERA IN NOVA SCOTIA.
Reports that the Deaths in HantspOrt
Average six a Dsy.
From the NetO York 81.

From the Neao York Sun.
BANGOR, ME-, Sept. 29.-There is much
anxiety in Eastern Maine regarding the
reports of the existence of Asiatlc cholera
at Transport, N. s., as there is a great
deal of travelling between the provinces
and the States. 1t is reported that the
deaths OF Transport average six day out
of population Of only 1000. The cpl
demic is said TO have been caused in this
way: Last fall a shoal of blsck-fsh came
up the river, which runs almost through
the village. The tide recediDg, many OF
these fish were left on the mud flats. They
weighed several tons. A local firm se-
cured the fish, and, taking large
quantity of oil from them, buried the
carcasses on the shore. This summer the
place where the fish were buried became
a regular stencil pit. When the wind
was blowing from the river the smell In
the village was almost unbearable. This
was allowed to continue for some time,
but finally covering of lime and earth
was put over the carcasses, and the
stencil ceased TO be an annoyance. The
neglect of an effective sanitary rule is at
the bottom of the trouble. Bangor is in
frequent communication with Palermo.
Messina, and other Mediterranean points
by means OF Italian vessels in the fruit
box trade, and the Widows Island quar-
anime station may come into service.

Material Generally Used-The Necessity

From the Nets York Man and Bzprsss.
"Tell me something about babies shoes.
How are they numbered"
'sNO. is the first shoe out OF babyhood
No. has a soft sole OF white kid and
pasteboard, and Is the successor of the
knit wool boots that are sold for babies in
long dresses.
No. /, , aud have what is called the
turned sole. sewed together on the wrong
side and turned out. There are from four
10 five buttons ON the side and black tns-
sci IL now fastened at the top in front.
The latest is 10 have a Vamp OF French
kid with calf uppers, or, what is still bet
ter, a hali-bOxed round toe, tipped with
patent leather"
"ls there no change in the shape Of chill.
dren's shOesW
"None. Thore can't well be, because
the sole must be sufficiently broad 10
stand the wear and tear. Square toes are
preferred 20 round because they allow
freer development 10 the toes. The spring
heel, which was introduced nearly two
years ago, is worn as early as years of
age and has recently become fashionable
for girls in their teens. IL is nothing but
a slip Of leather inserted between the sole
and that part OF the shoe pressed by the
wearer's heel. It's seldom that smaller
than a No. $ Is made with a regular heel
and that lie on the cOmmon-sense plan,
low and broad. These and the larger sizes
have a higher top than has been usual for
several years. Children would have better
looking feet II they lad wiser mothers,
aud the fault lies In the FIRST shoe worn.
One par too short will ruin the feet, no
matter how loose subsequent ones may
be.v
