CLEANLINESS NEXT TO GOODNESS.
Valued Advice from the Women's Sanitsr,
Association to the Public.

The Women's Sanitary Association. which
was organized some weeks ago. has pre-.
pared the following words of wisdom as an
address TO the people of Indianapolis:
We have good laws and enough OF them. We
have a good and active Board of Health. But
laws and board together cannot do without the
instant and constant help OF citizens. Cholera,
typhoid fever and dlphtheria are classed among
NTH diseases, because they are intensified, ex.
aggerated and made more contagious by filth.
Let cleanliness, therefore, be the order Of the
day. Let every householder and housekee per
be clean In person, in clothing, in walls, floors,
carpets, cellars, sinks, yards and stables.
A frequent and generous use of water is one
great hindrance and preventive of disease.
Cleanliness is the main thing. but disinfectants
are also needed. Chloride OF lime is the cheap
est and one OF the best. Sulphate of IRON, sui
phate OF zinc. sulphate Of copper and carbolic
acid are perhaps quite as good. Charcoal,
crushed and fresh, is q disinfectant when freely
strewn on damp and moldy places. Youi
druggist will tell you how to use the other disin,
fectants.
Air Is u disinfectant and as much of a purifier
as water. Let pure air have full and free circu,
lation through open windows in good weather.
Let the sunlight also stream in.
Light, air and cleanliness will save doctors
bills and still worse things.

r%ection, was i~ncorruptible; hence, spirit

plants. Easter lilies were abundantly pro-
vlded about all the affairs.

Evils of Hasty Legislation.

Public attention has recently been direct
ed to various statutes passed by the late
Legislature upon which more or less critl'a
cism has been based. Among them are
the acts amending the corporation laws
of the State which it is claimed are sucept-
ible of every diverse interpretations, and
the marriage license law, which it is said,
if literally taken, makes the procuring OF
licenses unnecessary until after the first
day of October, 1895. The Act of
May IS, 1893 which provides that
all deeds shall be recorded within 80 days
from its execution, or they will not be
valid against a subsequent purchaser or
lien creditor of the grantor, also seems to
make another important change in the law,
which was probably not contemplated by
the Legislature. That change is, in effect.
that deeds must be acknowledged by the
makers, or by one or more of the witnesses
in the county wherein the lands conveyed
are situated, or before a justice of the Su-
preme Court in some other section of the
State. Ifthis is the correct Interpretation
of the act it will be the cause Of much
trouble and expense to grantors living in
a different county from that in which the
land conveyed is situated, as it precludes
them from following the former practice
of acknowledging their deeds at their own
home, unless it should happen also to be
the home of Supreme Court Justice.
Another act which is the subject of criti-
cism is that of June 6, 1898, which pro-
a fknf all raI,
made before the act of 9th day of May,
1889,
Shall be valid and of the same effect as if
the proceedings under which said valua-
tions and partitions were made had been
commenced and instituted prior to the pas
sage of said act of the 9th of May, 1889.
provided, however, that this act shall not
affect any judicial DEGREES heretofore made
or apply to pending litigation.
Noting the italicized words and the
proviso, it is difficult to get any sense ont
of the act or to come to any other conclu
sion than that. whatever its object may
have been, it totally failed to find express
sion
The Harrisburg Patriot which has taken
the lead in pointing out these defects,
severly criticises Gov. Pattison and Attor-
ney General Hensel for approving of the
defective acts and says the remedy is to be
found in sending capable, industrious and
thoughtful men to the Legislature and in
the Governor always choosing an ATTORNEY
General who is lawyer, but something
more than this is required. As long as the
practice of rushing through important
legislation in the last days of the session
is adhered to the evil of ill-drawn and
nonsenically expressed statutes is likely to
continue. .-Pittsburg Times.

On the Decline.

Not the least important feature Of the
late elections was the indubitable evidence
which they afforded of the rapid decline of
the PopuliSt movement in the West and
South. There were hopes even among
Republicans that in some of the southern
states as in Virginia, the POpulists would
make serious inroads upon the Democratic
party, but such was not the case. The
same is true of the West. Had the Popu-
lists not largely abandoned their party
there was fighting cnance for Democratic
success in Nebraska, where there was dis
satisfaction with some of the Republican
candidates Notwithstanding these disad-
vantsges the Republicans were all elected
by good majorities There as no state
ticket in Kansas, but the results in the
counties plainly show that the Populist de-
lusion o longer holds sway, and there is
every probability that the congressional
elections of next year will mark the re-
turn of the great majority OF the Populists
to their old political affiliations.
1t is specially significant that in the sill
yer producing states there was the same
drift. In South Dakota, where there was
no special excitement. the Republican,
cast about 60 per cent of the vote, while in
Colorado they carried two thirds OF the
counties by large msjorities. The msJor-
tiles were quite as large in the silver min
ing counties as elsewhere in the state, and
the Populist governor must have opened
his eyes very wide when he read the re-
turns Commercial Gazette.

A Remarkable Discovery.

The neighborhood of Saxonburg was
stirred to its depths week ago by the re-
markable find made by three of its promi-
nent citizens. On The day following the
late election, three leading Democrats be-
took themselves to the forest to find, if
possible, consolation and forgetfulness of
their defeat, in the fascinating pursuit of
the toothsome pheasant and nimble gray
squirrel. For their hunting ground they
chose the wood which lies between
Davis and Bull creeks, through whose
dense shades in olden times wound the
Bull Creek road, and along which the fancy
Of tellers of old stories and legions are
wont to lay the scenes of many of their
most grewsome tales. But anticipation is
as much out of place in this staid chron-
icle as in the thrilling dime novel.
While wandering through the dense. un-
derbrush the trio stumbled over what was
thought to be the headstone of grave.
The gallant hunters were at once overcome
with feeling of the deepest solemnity,
and visions of all manner of cruel muir
ders, and secret burials of ILL gotten treas
ures filled their minds, and led them to
determination to investigate at all haz-
yards.
Procuring implements they proceeded to
unearth that which was destined to wildly
excite the neighborhood and interest scien-
rific Pittsburg. After two ieet they
came upon what proved to be rude vault,
walled on either side with sandstone and
filed to its entire depth with broken stone
Three long weary hours were spent throw
ing this ont, and after going six feet more,
and just as the sun was sinking beneath
the horizon and as its slanting beams were
touching the yellow leaves into more gold
en- hues, they cam 20 the bottom of the
grave, for such it was Two immense fiat
stones, raised with much { iiiculty, dis
closed the remains of a rude stone coffin.
Within were the bones of what must
have been a remarkable creature, whether
man or beast. The skull was missing bnt
the immense size of the thigh and other
bones and the great length and width of
the vertebra showed the original to have
been of gigantic size and stature. Every
thing indicated human origin. Several
copper instruments and copper ring 3
feet in diameter were found in the grave
The skeleton was carefully removed and
shipped to an anatomical specialist in
Pittsburg for identification and articulation
and will most probably furnish food for
another great controversy among the
scientists.
We shallkeep your readers fully supplied
with data from time to time on this
extraordinary find and its value to the
historical and scientific societies.
