Every subscriber of a local paper
should carefully preserve and file away
every number received. In after years
the pleasure of perusing the accounts
of happenings that have in many
cases passed from the memory, will be
greater than reading events fresh in
local history. Old files OF local news
papers possess an inestimable value,
providing. as they do. the means of
supplying missing links in the chain
OF local history. AS the publications
of fifty years ago are eagerly scanned
by people of today in search of inter
esting history, SO also will the papers
OF the present be Invaluable fifty years
hence.

1t is not surprising in view of the
unusual mildness and dampness Of the
winter, following a remarkably wet
fall that an unusual amount of sick
ness prevails in many places through
out vide extent of country. Fevers,
diphtheria and pneumonia are
scourging many towns and villages,
and in some the mortality is fearful
especially among children. 1t is the
kind of a season when especial care is
advisable to avoid exposures and to
keep the system in order by regular
habits, judicious diet and avoidance
of unusual fatigue of body or mind.
