VENTILATION OF SEWERS.
How to Prevent Contamination Of th
House Air.

How to Prevent Contamination Of the
House Air.
The modern sanitarians agree that
there is little dependence to be placed
on the primary sewerstrap as means
of keeping sewer gas out of the house.
The chief means of surety lie in thor
ough ventilation. The ordinary house
sewer should measure four inches and
no more, because a larger pipe is not
so easily or thoroughly flushed out in
every part as smaller pipe. The pipe
should be ventilated just outside the
house or at it's lower end, and the pipe
should be extended its full length to at
least eight or nine inches above the
peak Of the roof, and capped by a regu-
lar ventilating plow. BY this means air
will be continually pumped through the
pipe. There are multitude of patent
devices that save plumbers work, and
are supposed to take the place of this
simple method of ventilation, but all
are makeshifts. Do not let the plumb
er persuade you that it is not necessa-
ry to extend the pipe its full size. but
that a two-inch pipe will do for venti-
lation. 1t costs but little more to ex-
tend the pipe to the roof in full four
inch size. Now, that nearly every viii
lage has system of sewerage and
water supply, it is especially necessary
that all persons understand that safety
from sewer gas is not in shutting it out
by water trap, but in purifying it by
the introduction of current of pure
air. Main sewers should be as thor
oughly ventilated as house sewers, as
the simplest precaution against the
dangerous accumulation of gas. Yet
this is too often neglected.-N. Y.

Chiffon.

The collar on gowns is becoming less
in evidence. While the huge bouffant
collar of winter is reproduced in chif-
fon on French capes, the collars on
dresses are considerably simpler than
they have been. There are some rolled
back Byron collars, showing a simple
band inside, and many of the French
gowns are finished with the straight
band of three years ago. Others are
plain crush or folded ribbon collars
finished with a bow or rosette or small
bow at the back. For summer dresses
the low throat finished with ruffie of
inch Valenciennes will be used. Many
sheer cotton gowns will be finished
with elbow sleeves, and draped over
the shoulders with Marie Antoinette
fichus. edged with Valenciennes, point
d'esprit, or Maltese lace. One or two
rufies edged with lace are sometimes
used on the bottom of the skirts or in
sertions of the lace are set above the
hem.-N. Z. Tribune

Money Lost.

Until one week ago Peter Skolman
was the owner of very fine farm in
Wright county about six miles from
LIE Carrie. He had grown old on the
farm and the life was distasteful to
him, and he sold out his farm to man
named Bergholt, who resides at LIE
Garlic, for $1,000 spot cash. The deal
was consummated late in the afternoon
and at an hour when it was impossible
for Skolman to reach town and deposit
the money in a bank. He was AFRAID
to keep it in the house over night, and
consequently secured a pretty tin box,
put the money in it and buried the box
among the roots of tree about
quarter of mile from the house, in
tending to go get the $1,000 money in
the morning and take it to the bank.
Skolman was very careful that no one
should see him bury the money; at
least, he thought he was careful, and
retired to bed in contented frame OF
mind, feeling that his money was secure.
Bright and early the next morning
Peter arose, dressed and before break
fast went out to the tree and dug down
for the box. To his horror no box was
to be found, and the $1,000 clear cash
was gone and represented to Peter the
loss of his farm, stock and home as WELL

ONE who has ever had Typhoid fever. Mr..
Baker said in part:
II was living in Beaufort county, and on
the I'd day of October, $685. Twas stricken
down with typhoid fever. had the best
of physicians to attend me and on the 18th
day of January, 1894, was allowed to get
up. was emaciated, weak and had no ap-
petite. Icould only drag along for short
distance and would be compelled to sit
down and rest. This continued for some
time and began to give up hope of ever
getting well. l lost my position in Beau
fort county and having secured one in Pitt
county, clerking in store, | undertook it,
but was so weak I could not do the work,
and had to give it up. The disease settled in
my knees, legs and feet. was taking first
one kind of medicine and then another, but
nothing did me any good. Twas mighty
low spirited. I moved out to Col. Sugg's
about four or five months ago and COM
;menced taking DR.. Williams Pills. 1 took
three a day for about three months. began
30 regain my appetite in a weeks time,
and then my weakness began to disappear,
and hope sprung up with blessedness that
is beyond all telling. AT the expiration of
the three months was entirely cured and
could take my axe and go in the woods and
do as good days work as any man. Twas
troubled with dyspepsia and that has disap-
peared. It is also splendid tonic for weak
people. I say, Mr.. Editor, God bless DR..
Williams. May he live for a long time. I
know he will go up yonder to reap his re-
ward, for he has done a wonderful lot of
good. Tell everybody that asks you about DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People that if
they will come to me can certainly satisfy
them as to their merits. I always carry
box of pills with me and whenever feel
bad take one."
We were forcibly struck with the earnest
ness of Mr.. Baker and his statement may be
relied on.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills contain, in
condensed form, all the elements necessary
to give new life and richness to the blood
and restore shattered nerves. They are an
unfailing specific for such diseases as loco
motor ataxia, partial paralysis, st. Vitus'
