kind Is an exception. DR.. Stone says
that while drainage has been an important
factor IN the city'S healthfulnesS. the change
was so immediate and marked upon the in
troductlon OF the artesian water and the
abandonment of the surface wells. that he
attributes the greatest measure of credit to it.
heeping pace with the good work of
drama se outside of the city, and the sub
stltutlon of the artesian for the muddy
water OF the Savannah river and the pol
luted waters of the surface wells, the CITY
authorities have been giving closer atten-
tlon to thedralnage of the city, so that storm
water, which q few years ago used to accu-
mulate IN the streets and stagnate under the
rays of summer sun, is now carried off.
This has been effected by putting in larger
number OF sewer traps and catch basi as
and keeping the sewers we'll flushed in times
OF drought. Other sanitary measures are
under consideration,
THE HOUSE DRAINAGE QUESTION.
The question of a thorough system OF
house drainage is being considered bv the
council, and while plan has not yet been
agreed upon, surveys are being made look
ing to the location of an outlet for the house
sewage i'll the Savannah river at q sale
distance below the city, where the sew
age will be thoroughly resolved int
minute particles by the action OF
tides and current and carried out to sea
When the Topographic m lp is completed il
will be sent on TO Rudolf Herring, the New
York sanitary engineer. for his report as to
the most practicable outlet.
The city has also let the contract for sink
ing deep artesian well on the Springfield
plantation at the foot of Gwinnett street
and work was begun on the well last week
1t IS calculated to go down 1000 feet Oh
more, II necessary, with view of reaching
veins such as supply the spouting wells Of
st. Augustine and jacksonville, and it i
expected that the experimental well
with its 12-inch casing, will flow severa
million gallons daily. If the well is a sue
cess, other deep wells will be put down
and the danger of a scarcity of water
averted by double plant, in which pur,
water will be abundant.
The failure of the Hughes crematorv
erected on the Springfield plantation this
summer, to effectively do the work of ere
mating the garbage and night soil has no
discouraged the city authorities. although
1t was disappointing. II was the expert
ment OF the crematory company and moi
that OF the CITY, and incurs no financia
loss to the city. The project of burning tn
night soil and garbage has not beer
abandoned. DIR. Harris, chairman of tn
health committee of council, il
answer to an inquiry by
MORNING News reporter, says 1.-THE crema
tory will be built as soon as we are able t,
satisfy ourselves as to the best patent"
With the drainage work of the count,
commissioners, and the sanitary work con
templated by the city authorities, the in
creasing healthfulnes of the city will sool
attract the widest attention throughout tn,
country, and make Savannah, as it was in
tended to be, the most prosperous and on
of the most populous cities of the south.

DR.. J. B. Read, county commissioner and
member from the county of the city SAM
tary commission, corroborates the cumula-
tive testimony to the marked increase in
late years, of the city's healthfulness. He
attributes it in the main to the drainage of
the low lands outlying the city. Malarial
fevers are rarely met with In his practice,
and malignant types of fever are rare. This
change has come about during the past
twelve years, in which the county commits
sionerS have constructed thirty-four and
a half miles of canals and bitches, which
drain not less than 10000 acres OF
land outlying the city, and have drained
the southern, southeastern and southwest
ern portions of the city, and palatial resi-
dences now stand where but a few years
ago were swamps and quagmires, and this
drainage has been so effective that it has
reclaimed about 1000 acres of land for
cultivation. To continue and extend to
remoter points from the city this system
of drainage, and to adopt the pail system in
the city for the removal of night soil
and bury it or cremate it, DIR. Read says,
will bring the sanitation of the city to a
maximum of effectiveness and reduce dis
eases TO minimum.
DR.. Stone attributes, in a very large
measure, the decrease in malarial diseases
to the introduction of artesian water. Pure
water, DIR. Stone says, is one of the most
important things In hygiene, and in the first
year Of the Introduction of pure water in
Savannah he noticed a decrease in the mum
Der of his malarial patients, and since thee
the decrease has been steadily main

Paris is childless. You see beunes
in dainty caps and aprons t%rundling
the offspring of the wealthy, but in
the lower sections Of the city among
the bourgeois, little ones are invisible,
The tradesman who has his shop on
the ground floor and his sleeping
on the fourth or fifth story
could not keep his children without
losing the services of his wife, whom
he wants to help him in his business.
II he kept children his wife would be
Obliged to live upstairs, so he sends
out his babies to Nurse as soon as they
are born, with the intention of letting
them remain in the country until they
are 5 or 6 years old; and the ouvrier,
who has generally but one garnet
room up a dozen flights of stairs, does
the same thing. The result of this is
that more than 80 per cent. OF the
children born in Paris die in the baby
farmers hands before reaching their
second year. All that the Assistance
Publique has tried to do toward check
ing this shocking waste OF life has
been Of little avail. Forty creches
have been instituted, but they meet
the wants of only a small number of
mothers. A system for registering
and inspecting the homes of peasant
women who take children to nurse
has been attempted, but the Assistance
gets little help from the parents Of the
working classes in ~contending against
the rapacity of baby farmers. A
nurse, OF whom no questions are
asked, charges twenty-five francs a
month for the keep Of a baby; those
who are registered and SO controlled
that they can only receive one child
demand fifty francs or more. Those
find their customers among the bour-
geois, but the working classes cannot
afford to ~patronize them.-Philadel-
phia Times.

The general idea OF casting a horo-
scope was that the first hour Of each
day was presided over by the heavenly
body that belonged to that day, as set
forth in the Frenchnames for the days
of the week, viz. The sun for Sunday,
the moon for Monday, Mars for Mardi,
CTuesdayl, Mercury for Mercredi
wednesday,, sJupiter for Joudi
Thursday, Venus for Vendredi (Fri-
day., and Saturn for Samedi Satur-
day.
The second hour Of the day belonged
to the second in this order, and SO on,
repeating these even deities as often
as was necessary until the birth hour
was reached.
III, therefore, we wish to cast the
horoscope Of a child born at 8 q. m. on
March 2, 1880, we observe first that the
day was Tuesday and that the sun
rose on that day at 9 "a. The first hour,
then, 6:34 to 7:34, belongs TO Mars;
the second, 7:34 to 1884, to Mercury ;
the third, S:34 to 9:34, to Jove; and
the child, being born under the infiu-
ence Of Jove, will necessarily have a
jovial disposition.
A more extended and laborious cast
ing of the horoscope consists in calcu-
lating backwards to find the exact po-
sition of the planets at the hour of
birth, and what their relative influence
might thus have been upon each
other. The heavens being regularly
divided into sections, if Saturn should
be found in the house (section) of
Jupiter, his s%aturnine influence would,
Of course, qualify the jovial influence
OF the lord Of that house.-St. Louis

The following Sensible remarks in rela-
ton to taxing mortgages from the MIN
neapolis Star we fully endorse:
An organization of the Minneapolis real
estate dealers has appointed q commit
tee to prepare bill to be submitted to
the legislature removing the tax on mort
cages. This is step in the right direct
ion 1t is something in which all classes
of the community are interested as well
as real estate dealers. A tax on mort
cages is in effect double taxation. The
land pays one tax upon its full assessable
value, and if the mortgage is taxed the
same value, pledged as security, pays an
other. It is useless to say that the capt.
alist who loans the money is reached by
the tax on mortgages, because he adds
the tax to the rate of interest, and the
borrower, the owner of the. land, has to
pay it. Thus he is forced to pay two
taxes, simply because he is poor and un-
able to pay cash down for his land while
his wealthy neighbor, who can pay all
cash, is let off with one tax. This is an
unfair discrimination against the poor
man, the borrower. But the broad argu-
ment in favor of the non-taxation OF
mortgages is that it would bring down
this rate of interest. This is an important
consideration in new state like ours,
which is constant borrower from the
older communities Of the East. With no
taxation on mortgages it would be much
easier to borrow money on real estate
and it could be borrowed at considerably
lower rate of interest. Thus this measure
would fetch capital here and infuse new
life into trade.
