Much of this trouble comes from the
loose manner in which men often
make bargains or contracts. Men
are too apt to make verbal agreements
and, while all parties may be
perfectly honest, the wrong in
terpritation of some point, or fault
of memory, often leads to pickering
and dispute. If all contracts are
reduced to writing, stating plainly
every detail, it will be no trouble to
sift the chaff from the wheat and tell
who is right and who wrong, thus
saving ill feeling and often expense.

THE number reported for the corresponding

The same difference is noticeable in the re-
turns throughout the month, owing mainly to
the absence Of the epidemic Of influenza, which
at this time Of last year was at its height. At
the present rate Of mortality the city is
at its normal degree of health, the
rate for the last fourteen years being about

such an extent in fatal form As to excite
anxiety, there having been but four such cases
during the week and only one death from
typhoid fever. Deaths from acute lung COM
plants declined from twenty -four to eleven
and from kidney maladies from seven to four.
