ANOTHER HEALTH WARNING.
The Great Danger Of Carelessness In SANTA


The Great Danger Of Carelessness In sanitary
Matters.
1--WE physicians earnestly hope there will be
no cholera here this year" said a well known
health officer yesterday, "and for my part judg-
Ing by the vast increased use of the great disn.
fectant. Platt's Chlorides, should IL come II will
not find much to feed upon among careful and
cleanly households"
What am afraid of is that as cholera has not
yet broken out, many careless people will again
return to their old habits and ways. aud the dis
infectants will be partially ignored
"our only safeguard is constant daily vigil
lance, and the immediate disinfection or de-
struction of all decaying and organic matter
that may foster or invite pestilence."
We have spoken of the vital importance of the
use of Platts Chlorides so frequently that ono
would think everybody knew about II and used
1t undoubtedly many Thousands of families do
while yet many thoughtless ones do not. 1t is
among the latter class the disease will find its
victims.

trely odorless yet very powerful and economi.
