Contractors to Supply Health.

Perhaps the most interesting suggestion in Mr. Edwin Chadwick'S presidential address to the Sanitary association was that about Health Contractors" Mr. Chadwick is a veteran in the cause of public health and has the old mans privilege of looking into the future. A time will come, be seems to think, when communities will invite tenders for the supply of public health just as they do now for the supply of moro tangible com modities. 'Sanitatlonists' twill that be the terrible wordD will contract to supply SC much public health per 1000 for so much a year. Even now, said Mir. Chadwick, ''a contractor with enlarged and commensurate powers might contract for the reduction of the death rate of Manchester from 27 to 1G in 1,00O" No doubt he might-if he were given commensurate powers" It all turns on that, And as the powers would be likely to trench on moneyed interests at every turn, it will be some time, we fear, before Mir. Chadwick's dream is fulfilled
 The logical basis of Mir. Chadwick's argu- ment was the monetary value of saving a human life. Every human being ill the land is worth, he says, e159. But is this really soa MT. Chadwick might remember the story told of bishop, who is we'll known for his dislike of cant and his skill in snubbirg those who practice it. A pious lady of his diocese was illustrating the doctrine of spe cial Providence by a case in her experience. An aunt of her own was setting out on sea voyage, when she felt "a warning from on high" She obeyed the warning and did not sail. Next day the ship was wrecked and all the passengers perished. "Was not that say ing of my aunts life clear case, my lord, of Divine Providencef 1T cannot say" re- piled the bishop. ''for I do not know your aunt."-Pall Mall Gazette.

THE MYSTERY SOLVED.
Probable Identity of the Body Foun
 Near WinSted.

Near Winsted.
 The mystery of the dead man found near Winsted is apparently about solved. It IS now thought that the dead man was Daniel Smile, of Colebrook River, who came from St Paul, Minnesota, about May 1, and who peddled notions hereabouts after his return from the west. The last seen of Smile was July :, when hestopped at the Naugatuck railroad depot and gave his peddling outfit to Fred Cotton, the Colebrook River stage driver, to return to Smiles sister, and told Mr Cotton to say that he would not want the property any 'onger That was the last seen of him. All the indications, judging from dress, etc, are that the dead man found was Smile. The body will now be resurrected, and as Smile was just out of the St Paul hospital when he came east, if the body was Smiles it will be easily determined from the fact that he had suffered from frac tured leg bone, and if the evidences of broken leg are found it will in connection with the other evidence establish the fact beyond doubt that the dead man was l Daniel Smile.

Value of sunfiower Seed.

Owing to the diversified and recently de veloped uses of sunflower seed it is yearly growing in commercial value. Its whole someness as an admixture to chicken food is undisputed, and much of 1t finds market for that purpose. It Is used by the veterinary profession in a medicinal or corrective way ill the treatment of horses. The extraction of valuable oil from it is looked for re- suit. With its reputation as preventive of malaria its growth is becoming widespread, especially at the west-New York Tribune.

An earthquake always begins with small vibrations, according to Professor J. A.

There were in the collection single stamps valued at $100 each, md several groups of six were placed at S1 GOO.

One group, consisting of four government stamped envelopes now obsolete, was ap- praised at $400 -New York Sun.
