Rules and Regulations by the
Board of Health.

Oh nllcJhi 4 UNIV, hSiN -
it was decided to adopt and, so far
as practicable, to enforce the follow
ing rules and regulations relative to
the controlling and stamping out of
scarlet fever:
/. CARE OF PATIENTS. The pa
tent should be placed in separate
room, and no person, except the
pbysician, nurse, or mother, allowed
to enter the room, or TO touch the
bedding or clothing used III the sick
room, until they have been thorough
ly disinfected.
.. INFECTED CLoTH1NG.-All bed
ding, clothing, or other articles not
absolutely necessary for the use of
the patient, should be removed from
the sick room. Articles used about
the patient, such a sheets, pillow
cases, blankets or clothes, must not
be removed from the sick room I'M
til they have been thoroughly dis
infected by placing them in tub
with the following disinfecting tluld;
eioht ounces Of suiphate Of zinc, one
ounce of carboljc acid, three cations
Of qcater. They should be soaked
in this fluid at least one hour, and
then placed in boiling water for
washing. A piece Of muslin one
foot square should be dipped in the
same solution and suspended IN the
sick room constantly, and the same
should be done in the hallway ad'
joining.
3. All vessels used for receiving
the discharges of patients should
have some Of the same fluid con-
stantly therein, aud Immediately
after use be cleansed with boiling
water. All straw beds should be
burned; aud itls advised not to use
handkerchiefs about the patient, but
rather soft rags for cleansing the
mouth and nostrils, which should
then be burned.
4. The ceiling and sidewalks Of
the sick room after removal OF the
patient should be- thoroughly cleans
ed and lime washed, and the wood
work aud floor thoroughly scrubbed
with soap and water.
3. Families that have recently
had scarlet fever in their houses
should attend to this last precaution
without delay, also to the one re-
lating to the thorough dlsinfection
Of clothing.
6. Public funerals are strictly for
hidden. Bodies that have died OF
scarlet fever must not be taken to
churches, nor exposed to view IN
private houses, but should be buried
privately and as soon after death az
possible.
Z. People living IN house where
scarlet fever exists must not 90 to
churches or places of public gather
ing, neither must they 90 to other
peoples houses, or admit others to
theirs. The greatest precaution
must be used in these respects.
s.. The attention of resident ply
siciaus is respectfully called To Sec
ton 3, Chapter 1871, Laws Of 1888
which relates to the reporting to
the board of health, cases of conta-
gious diseases.
O. The board Of health has power
to enforce all the rules and regula-
lions herein made; and 1t would be
well for each family in the city to
cut out and preserve copy forI
reference in case they should be so
unfortunate as to have scarlet fever

hisutteranees to be taken as the language
of piety, and himself as one of the most
prosecuted Of saints.
But if Mr.. Jones cannot read himself,
there are others who can; and although
they may not have an ignorant, gaping
crowd at their heels to cry amen to their
liking, they nevertheless think that Mr..
Jones should not have his own way. They
feel that they have an interest In our COM
mon Christianity which they are bound to
defend against the perversions, caricatures
and Misrepresentation of that gentleman
and his ilk. Let him alone, and the seed
which he is now sowing will soon bear an
abundant harvest of scepticism and lnhdel-
ity.noxious weeds now already too abund-
ant in almost every land.
would not be understood as lntlma-
ting. that the more intelligent and truly
pious of the Methodist clergy and laity
give eountenance to the methods-es-
pecially the low vulgarity-Of Mr.. Jones;
/ am satisfied they do not. Indeed, shall
not be surprised, if in less than one year,
unless he mends his ways, the whole
Methodist Church should turn its back
upoD him. | once heard the venerable
Bishop McKendree-of knee buckle and
silk stocking memOry-'say in reference
TO certain levitieS that were going on
among his Clergy at campmeeting: are
the preachers playing pranks?" Now MI.
Jones is simply playing pranks before
high heaven, such rs make angels weep:
That he says some very good things freely
admit; but they are like a grain Of wheat
in q bushel of chat. From my standpoint,
Mr.. JOnes-fOr the sake OF
little cheap nOtOriety, per-
haps-is dragging MethOdism in the
dust, and casting slur upon our common
Christianity. Instead of paying him
''SlOO'' for his services, it seems to me it
would be wiser TO pay him the same
amount to go and preach to the MOrmons,
who would better appreciate his address;
or better still, that he should be retired
altogether.
Mr. Jones assumes to be a sort of Elijah,
or John the Baptist, or somebody else
having great power and authority, and
CARRYING condemnation directly from
heaven. But when did did Elijah or John
the Baptist, or Paul. or Christ tell the peO-
pie that they should come into the cOngre-
cation with "a broad grin upon their
faceS?" This might suit the JOneses and
Beechers, and their sensatiOnalists of mod
ern times-whOse piety, to say the least,
is of doubtful character-but they will
| find no justification for such course in
the conduct of the early teachers of Chris
! tianity.
Mr.. Jones utterly failed to explain why
his books were sold on Sunday. He was
sorry" So is almost any other evil
dOer when he is found out. But for any
thing that appears in his attempt at ex-
PLANTATION, the public is left to draw its
own inference as to whether or not he was
pariefpS criminals.
Mr.. Editor, if there is any one thing
essential to true and devOut religious wOr-
ship, it is rCrGence-a quality to which
Mr.. Jones does not pretend to lay the
slightest claim. Nay, he turns it into posi-
tive and downright ridicule. Is he 4 man
of God? Let the public decide.

A Critique Upon His Work and Meth

A Critique Upon His Work and Meth
DDS.
To the Editor Of he Register:
1t is more in sorrow than in anger that
would, at present, refer to the man and
his methods, whose name stands ut the
head of this article. 1t would seem that
Mr.. Jones-who, believe, is reformed
drunkard, and who of all men should try
and be modest in his pretenSiOnS-claims
to be % kind OfretOrmed general, dictator
in public and private morals, an invaluable
guide, or nOn-Such, for ignorant and half
educated people to cape and stare at, and a
friend of politicians, who would he only
too glad to convert him to their own use.
II seems that this Mr.. Jones has made
an Intellectual attempt TO reform himself,
in one important particular at least; that
is, in the use of tobacco. Now, his failure
in this matter ought to teach him, think,
to be little more modest and less exact
ing upon Others, whether their sins be real
OF only imaginary. What renders the SUI
perlative vanity, self-eOnceita and ignorance
of Mr.. Jones most conspicuous is the fact
that what eminent Christians have hitherto
regarded rs cardinal virtues. and what
Christ and his Apostles have emphatically
enjoined rs such, and denounced by him
rs evils, and ridieuled rs follieS. / refer
particularly TO SObriety and prayer BE
We sober, and watch unto prayer" Watch
and be sober" Continue in prayer and
watch in the same" The language of Mr..
Jones on these topics is shocking to- the
moral sense Of every really sincere and
deyOut Christian. | am not cOntending
for sour gOdlineSs, or any other extreme,
but simply for the honor of the Chriitian
religion.
The trouble with Mr.. Jones seems to be,
that while he would claim to know more
than all other men, of things in heaven
above, in the earth beneath, and in the
water under the earth, he is utterly ignorant
Of himself Like other sinners, he does not
wish to know himself; and this is evident
from the fact that when he is Justly re-
proved for his follies and ahsurdities, he
retorts from the pulpit in language the
most resentful and yindietive, and wishes

THE SOCIALISTS VS.. POWDERLY.
A prominent lecturer among the Knights
of Labor says that strong effort will be
made by the Socialistie element of the
order to defeat Mr.. PowDERLY in the con-
vention of knights at Richmond in Octo-
Der. The Socialists denOunce Mr.. Pow
Derby for his condemnation of Anarchy
and Socialism, "giving away the secrets of
the order and for writing for books and
magazines as the head OF the Knights of
Labor" IfMr. PowDERLY can not be
defeated in election, it is said an effort will
be made to impeach him.
As Mr.. PowDERLY has shown such good
Judgment and sound common sense as the
head of his order, it is only natural that
the rash and visionary element should be
against him. Here one of the visionary
ideas of an Anarchist.
When the Anarchists come into power
estimates will be made upon the amount
of goods il will take to furnish the country,
and the labor will be divided accordingly.
For instance, an estimate will be made as
In how many shoes il will take to supply
the demand Oian the people in the nation,
and then all the shOemakerS will be put to
work to make that many and no more
There will be no over production, and as
we have calculated it the labOring classes
will then only be obliged to toll two hours
and a half per day to supply the nation Its
wants There will be sale and profit, each
trade will work for the other and exchange
equivalents. The pantSnaker will make
pants for the shoemaker, and the shoe
maker will pay for them with shoes, and
SO on through all the trades. We want
this competitive system done away with.
Mr.. PowDERLY, as every other sensible
man, would like to see the Socialists try
this Utopian scheme on a smaller scale be-
fore they force it upon the entire country.
Others have tried it to their heart content
and have given it up in disgust. ROBERT
OWEN bought 20, 900 acres of land at New
Harmony, Ind, and founded a sOcialistlc
colony of more than |, coo people. But in
four years he gave up the scheme in dis
gust and sailed for England. The Brooke
Farm ut Roxbury, Mass, was on plan
similar to that OF Mr.. OWENS, but it was
4 failure except SO far As to furnish HAw-
THoNE a subject for writing a pleasant
romance. But men and women can not
live ON romance and dreams even if
I'VE are such stuff rs dreams are made of
And our little life is rounded with sleep.
If the crack Drained Anarchists and So
cialists want to convince people of the rac-
ticabiHty of their schemes let them demon
strate by their own experiments
