Sanitary Insurance.

A plan has been sketched out by
Englishman, DR.. G. w. Sleeves, for Sc
curing at all times the sanitary condi-
tion of dwelling houses. from the palace
to the tenement. He calls his idea a
scheme Of sanitary insurance.
He recommends that the authorities of
a city in the interests of public health
organize it into sanitary insurance dis
tr1cts. There shall be board of in
spectors to visit all buildings in their
district not less than three times year.
They shall examine, register and classify
all houses, old and new, granting certifi-
Gates of sanitation for such as human
beings can live in without detriment to
health. They shall also provide the
most approved appliances whereby a
house owner may put his buildings in
good sanitary condition.
There should be added to their powers
also that of insuring buildings against
bad sanitation = that is, in considera-
tion of a proper sum paid per year by
the owner of house the board agrees to
watch it and keep it in thoroughly good
condition as to plumbing. ventilation.
etc. With certificates of sanitation
granted to all owners of houses in first
class condition. the unsanitary ones
would be rooted out of city in year, $
time, tor nobody would rent the build
ing that could not show a clean bill Of
health. Owners belonging to the sani.
tary insurance association would have
the preference always. 1t ought not to
be hard to arrange the details of such a
plan for sanitary insurance.

City Ownership of a Railway.

If the scheme which looks SO feasible
on paper should be duly carried out,
then in course of time Chicago will be
the owner of an elevated railway lead
ing from the heart of the city to an in
definite distance on the North Side. The
road will be called the North Side ele-
waited. The promoter" of the scheme.
which may be either very good or "a
veIy bad one, is Mr.. Marcus Pollasky. a
Chicago lawyer.
The plan proposed is that the Chicago
council shall charter and authorize an
issue of bonds for the road. The rail-
road company, however, will actually
issue the bonds to the amount of $4,000 :
000 in shares Of $lC0 each. All the peo-
pc of Chicago, small investors as well
as heavy ones. are invited TO put their
money into these bonds. which bear per
cent interest. The capital stock of the
company shall be at par value of $l0.-
100000. Eleven trustees or commission
els designated by the railroad COM
pany" shall manage its affairs.
After the operating expenses, interest
and all other charges shall have been
paid the net earnings remaining shall 10
to the city of Chicago. After five years,
if it so chooses, the city may call in the
bonds, pay them and itself become the
owner of the road, subject always, how
ever, to the management of the CON-
pany. For their share of the profits Mr..
Pollasky and his organizers get per
cent of the capital stock and per cent
of the company's bonds.
Grip in itself seems not so bad. but its
after effects are sometimes terrible. 1t
has been the cause of many cases of in.

system. and If there is weak spot in tho
body anywhere there its debilitating ef-
fects fasten and carry of the victim.
The number of persons of the finest in
telligence who have been deranged or
carried down to death from the after
clap of grip is melancholy to contemplate.
Speaking of the failure Of patent car
couplers to meet the situation. writer
says, "A fact that partially explains the
failure to get the perfect Car coupler is
the unfamiliarity of most inventors with
tue real needs of the situation" Just So
Why does not some intelligent brake
man invent the perfect car coupler hini-
self?
