London Graveyards.

There are some queer phases Of life in
London which are scarcely credible to
us in this still new country. London is
avery old city. The dead have been for
many centuries buried in small city
graveyards. Little thought is given
them after the generation of the living
to which they belong has passed away.
The old graves have been forgotten in
digging the new. The bones are scat
tered through the soil and it would seem
that in some yards fragments of bones
are as plenty as stones in gravelly soil.
A proposition has been recently under
discussion to transform many of these
old graveyards into quiet little parks,
preserving the monumental stones, but
making the yards garden-spots. This
has led to much public discussion. The
rector Of Bethnal Green, Rev. Mr.. Han
sard, communicates to the London
"Times " some very curious facts with
reference to the soil of such cemeteries,
and the danger to public health arising
from its disturbance. But another dam
ger which he points out is startling.
His rectory opens into an old graveyard.
There is no other access to it. He says
a spadeful of earth cannot be taken up
without turning up human bones. In
the part formerly devoted to the pauper
internent he has learned that the cof1ins
We're formerly piled one on another in
great numbers. The result is that the
surface is treacherous to footsteps.
Decay has left vast cavities below. Mr..
Hansard says that he has himself fal en-
eight times up to his waist in these
CHASTITY holes" once in passing along
gravelled walk! His daughter has had
two such plunges. In neighboring
graveyard he says a policeman fell in
the night into a grave hole which
yawned under his feet, and there re-
NAMED up to his neck until morning.
The horror of the night crazed him and
he died soon afterward. Numerous
other incidents are told where persons
suddenly disappear in the darkness.

Forbidden Kisses.

"Remember," said physician to his
wife, as he was leaving home for few
days, "and do not let the children kiss
any one"
! els it possible" asked a surprised
third party who was present, that
you consider it necessary to give such
instructions as that? Where is the
! danger?"
"The danger is so complicated and
yet SO certain that it would take too
much time to describe it here" said
the doctor. looking at his watch "In
my case, all kinds of people come to
my house and office to consult me, and
they often wait hours. If one of my
children happen to come in they are
almost certain to talk to it, and you
know almost the first impulse with
them. Bah! it makes me shudder-
tainted and diseased breaths lips blue
with cancer, foul and decayed teeth.
You would kill a stranger who would
waylay your young lady daughter and
kiss her by force, but the helpless. in
nocent. six-year-old child, susceptible
as flower to every breath that blows,
can be saluted by every one who
chances to think of it. l tell you it
wasn't Judas alone who betrayed by a
kiss. Hundreds of lovely blooming
children are kissed into their graves
every year."
"But, doctor, how can mother be so
ungracious as to refuse to allow people
to notice her sweet little children? 2"
There need to be no ungraciousness
about it, or, if there were, which is the
more important, the safety and we'll
being of the child or the permitting of
u habit of ill breeding and doubtful
morality at best? Let the mother
teach her child that it is not kitten
or lap dog, to be picked up and
fondled by every stranger, and instruct
it to resist any attempt to kiss it. Why,
there are agents, peddlers of household
wares, who make it custom to catch
up prattling child, kiss and pet it,
ind so interest the mother that she will
buy something she does not want I
tell you there is death in the kiss! The
beloved and lamented Princess Alice
OF Hesse took diphtheria from the kiss
of her child and followed it to her
grave. Diphtheria, malaria, scarlet
fever, blood poison and death turks in
these kisses. There, 1 shouldn't WON
der if l lost the train. Remember, no
kisses! and waving his hand the doc
tor drove away.

The Abstemious Arab.

How is it that Arabs contrive to
live in the waterless deserts of that
much-talked-of-region? They are, to
begin with, abstemious in their habits,
and know every crevice and hollow in
the hills where water will collect. They
regard this fluid more, perhaps, in the
light of luxury than as a necessity,
and use it with wonderful economy.
They would never think of wasting it
on the exterior of their bodies, and con-
slider that once in forty-eight hours is
often enough to replenish the inner
man. General Colston tells us that
when Bedouins came to his camp water
would be offered them, but would often
be refused with the remark that the
visitor had drunk yesterday. BY culti-
waiting this habit of abstemiousness.
they are able to cover immense dis
tances, which would be impossible for
a European, unless he were accompan.
led by baggage animals.

Eat More Salt.

DIR. Burggraeve, learned professor of
the University of Client, has just pub
lished remarkable work in which he
endeavors to prove that anybody who
will take the trouble to follow his in
structions may become centennarian.
His system is merely system of reno
walton, and is SIMPLICITY itself The
great panacea for all ills which he pro-
feSses to have discovered is salt, the ra-
tional use of which, he says, is sure
preserver of life. He affirms that good
health is not a matter of chance or con-
stitution; the laws which regulate
human life are calm and regular phe-
nomena, and all we have to do is to take
care that they shall develop themselves
without obstruction. According to his
theory, salt is the great regularizing
agent. If the blood is too rich, salt will
clarity it; if the blood be too poor, salt
will strengthen it and furnish it with
the necessary elements. DR.. Burggraeve
quotes several examples in support of
the sovereign virtue which he attributes
to salt. Formerly, in Holland, the great
est punishment which existed for
offending soldiers was to give them I'M
sailed bread. After a few months of
this regime the culprits almost invari-
ably died. In Saxony, at the end of the
last century, a terrible epidemic reigned
solely through the want of salt. The
Dutch savant Furthermore assures us
that salt is an infalible cure for con-
sumption and cholera. (The Russian
peasants once saved themselves from
plague by putting salt in their milk
He estimates that the quantity of salt
which every adult in ordinary health
should consume daily is two-thirds of
an ounce. In conclusion, he asserts that
if the world would only take to salt,
centennarians would become almost as
common as newborn babes.

The New Fire Engine.

The new hand engine for the Rough and
Ready (coloredD Fire Company reached
Anderson Tuesday morning. DIR. r. r.
Diver carried it to his machine shop,
where it was soon fitted up ready for
work. The engine is of the latest model,
and was made by the Gleason g. Bailey
Mfg Co., Seneca Falls, N. Y. The City
Council purchased it through Dr.. Diver,
who represents the Company. The outfit
cost about Si,1OO. Five o'clock Tuesday
afternoon was designated as the hour for
the test of the engine, so ut that hour the
Rough and Ready Company formed 1.-THE
machine shop, and, with tho engine and
reel. marched to the Court House Square,
where crowd Of citizens had assembled
to witness the test Fifty feet of hose
were attached, and in few seconds a
good stream was being thrown distance
of a hundred feet or more. The engine
was just getting in good working order
whcu one of the rockers (Which is made
of casting) of the pump handles snapped
in two. This of course brought the test
to an end. A new rocker has been order
ed from the factory, and in few more
days the engine will be ready for work
The Council had not received the engine,
therefore tho rocker will be replaced at the
expense of the manufacturers. The test,
as far as it went, was very satisfactory
The colored fremcn are very proud OF
the engine, and they will no doubt do
good work with it at the proper time.

He is practical man in every sense of the

kind and attentive as they can be to the
unfortunate beings under their charge.

is elected annually at a salary, to attend

Bolton Items.

Notwithstanding anything which might
have been intimated to the contrary, we
have one of the most orderly, law.abiding
people in the County. Since the bar
rooms have been done away with, we have
had little or no use for Marshal. To IL
lustrate: Our Marshal and Cotton Weigher
is the same man. This shows that there
is no use for that officer, as he is busy most
of his time looking after cotton, and the
town has to look after itself, which it is
able to do, as it is always sober. We
should advise all people before making
statements which call into question the
morals of community not to do so from
mere hearsay, but GO to the proper author
tiles and find out. Newspaper men are
often scarce of news, and some men are
prone to circulate things too readily which
they think will make against an opposing
party. A great deal of trouble can, some
times be saved by little caution.
The weather has opened up beautifully,
and Spring seems to have come at last.
Farmers are making good use of it.
Hymen will visit Bolton within few
months.
Merchants are preparing for their Spring
stock of goods. W. E. B.
