The Philadelphia Record says: AN
old housekeeperi in charge
Of u large down town mansion with
few occupants is noted for a queer
manner Of tidying up each room dai-
ly between intervals Of thorough
cleaning. Sometimes she merely
changes the chairs about in the un-
used rooms or transposes articles on
the mantelpiece, or taking broom
circles it once or twice around the
floor. The result is absolute freedom
from mice and rats. She says she
learned years ago from frontier
hunter that all such animals avoid
places which, to their acute senses,
show signs of recent disturbance. He
informed her that always before ly-
ing down at night on the prairie he
stuck his hunting knife in the ground
and drew it entirely around the place
where he was to sleep. A snake or
any other dangerous prowler would
stop as soon as it came upon the
freshly disturbed earth and beat a
hasty retreat"

Sanitation and Health.

From 1900 to 1850 the death rate in
London was 80 high that the population
stagnatcd In the former year the in
habitants numbered G65. 200 and in the
latter year 653. 900. During this period
the deaths were in the ratio Of about
one per 80 persons living. BY 1901 the
population had crcpt up to III, 900, and
the deaths had fallen to one in al per-
SONS living. This great improvement in
the state Of public health in London was
not, except to trifling extent, the re-
suit Of sanitary legislation. People
were becoming more enlightened on
many matters affecting their health,
partly owing to more general knowl
edge Of chemistry, physiology and other
sciences relating to man and his sur
roundings When those intrusted with
the conduct Of public affairs became
aware how much the health Of the pco
pie was affected by bad water, by foul
carnations and even ccsspools, and by
too great density Of population, they
began to secure supplies Of pure water,
to construct proper house drains and
street sewers, to remove systematically
filth from houses and to widen streets.
The PRONUNCIATION Of the natural laws Of
health preceded the enactment Of laws
Of health by the state. Jcnncr' discov-
cry Of prophylaxis in smallpox had for
its corollary the vaccination laws The
chemical analysis Of water was the ba

ter and rivers. Charles Cameron At
