amounts to $4,000, leaving 100000

A COMMON SENSE FILTER.-During
these times OF epidemic fever, the
greatest care should be taken for
lessening the chances OF acquiring the
germs of disease by what is taken into
the human system. Probably the
most direct channel for such poison is
by what we drink, and it has been
known for months past that our city
water is subject at times to pollution
from organic substances that invite,
if they do not cause, disease. What
greater boon can. therefore, be offered
than a reliable filter at moderate
cost? The Monitor filter seems to
meet all requirements, and l.. E.
Freitag has them for sale at Merri-
fields hardware store. He guarantees
their utility by allowing a trial before
the article is paid for. Call and see
them.
OUR WEATHER.-One Of those re-
positories of wisdom, medical alma
nae, gives rather an unwelcome fore
cast of December, basing its predic-
ton of the meteorological conditions
largely upon two full moons which will
be accorded this month, the first on
the Cd and the second on the 3lst.
The prophesier says: Reactionary
disturbances will be in progress at
the opening of December, and will
end in a cold wave on or about the
I'd to 4th." This has been fulfilled,
so far as variations in our mild and
equable climate can obey the general
law. Prom 9Th to the 9th is regu-
lar storm PERIOD" as the prolonged
rainfall has amply shown. From the
10th to the Goth will be "a period of
abnormal disturbance, and will bring
many severe storms on land and sea.
Billiards in many western and north
ern sections are probable, and \ sweep
ing cod wave throughout the country
will come in behind the storms"
Cold weather is predicted for Christ
mas and warmer at the close Of the
month.

for it does not seek the light, but hides
its evil head in the most squalid and
quarter of our cities and
towns: let us enter. Here we see four
young men at the ages of seventeen
to twenty years, playing cards for
drinks. At the counter stands another
group shaking dice, yonder asleep IN
that chair is boy of tender years
whose bloated appearance suggests an
early acquaintance with the paths that
lead downward to ruin, and here
haggling with the proprietor is a
man of forty years or more who is
seeking to dispose of some article, prob
ably stolen, for drink. SalOOnkeep-
and in many cases as receivers Of stolen
property. Here are to be found the
men who seek the young to educate in
crime, in vice and debauchery, and it is
to this den, or some other of its kind,
that the young men and boys are en-
ticed that they may be so educated.
The salOonkeeper of this class is devoid
of conscience, disregards the law, bribes
the police, sells to minors, and at all
hours, to swell his ill-gOtten gains.
This is one of the most fertile sources
of crime. 1t is here that thieves con-
gregate, here that the police seek the
criminal when wanted. Yet this place
and all others of it's class, has the Ii
cense of the community to pursue its
course of evil. Is not society response
BILE for this? It is useless to cast the
blame on license commissioners, alder
men or mayors who grant the license
Society placed these men in office there
fore society must bear the blame unit
the evil is remedied. II.
