food inspection, quarantine, reception,
cure and protection of imigrants-these are

caution that tends to prolone life and min
imize the dangers from disease will be
shown either by actual appliances or
models; the evils of tho tenement and
'swesting" systems will be brought out
very forcibly by models of old-style tone
nent and sweat shops exhibited. besides
models of the best possible apartment
houses and workshops. Heating, lighting
and drainage systems will be shown in con-
trast with exhibits illustrating the diseases
and deformities caused by unwholssome

some quarters for the workingmen. The
various state boards OF health are already
preparing exhibits of their methods for the

such exhibits is expected to be very vaIua-
bic. affording experts an unusual oppor-
tunity Tor study. Mr.. F. W. Brewer, of
