A DISEASE UNAccoUNTAsLY PREVA-
EMIT.

The prevalence of ailments attributable
to miasmatic poison in the air that people
breathe and the water they drink, Is well
nigh unaccountable Not alone in pesti-
lential swamps, badly drained suburban
districts, and marshes exposed to the suns
rays by the receding tide, is this scourge
of humanity found. Even in great cities,
healthfully located, skillfully severed: well
looked after in every respect in a sanitary
way, we find malaria. Its presence is often
ineXplicable, but its attacks are always
preventable The protector is Hostetters
Stomach Bitters. The eradicator bears
the same name-a name known to thou
sands throughout our broad land and
elsewhere as a synonym Of relief preven-
tion and cure Of the insidious disorders IN
its abominable phases-chills and fever,
bilious remittent, dumb ague and ague
cake, as well as others Nor is the Bitters
less effective for indigestion, kidney com
plant, biliousness and rheumatism.

A Feature Of Western Dwellings.

One feature in the plans Of western
city dwellings must be very clearly de-
fined. This is their openness- Not only
are the windows upon the average
larger than in the east, but they are
more frequent, as are also bay windows,
oriels, ETC.; while in the general plan
rooms are more closely related, openings
between rooms are wider and single
swinging doors less frequent
Several dwellings in Chicago-and
there are many in other western cities
have no doors whatever in the first story,
except those at the entrance and between
the dining room and buffers pantry, cur
tains being exclusively used This is Ger
tainly carrying ont the idea Of openness
TO the extreme. rs it Is the destruction Of
all privacy. and of all those suggestive
glimpses upon which 30 much Of the
artistic effect Of house depends.
