The Worlds Health.

While we have not room here to
produce the statistics in support, il
may be confidently asserted that the
average health of the worlds civilized
people is improving with every decade
Two principle causes are progress i'm
both medicine and hygiene. A hun
dred years ago smallpox was as much
dreaded as Asiatic cholera or yellow
fever are now. Seyenty-two years
ago to-day died DR.. Jenner. the man
who on May II, 1896. performed the
first incubation for the prevention of
smallpox. To-day his history is
known and adopted by the majority
OF physicians in all nations. Pasteur,
the Frenchmen, has earned the
thanks of the world by his inocula-
tion for the cure of hydrophobia A
new triumph of the germ theory of
disease seems to be the diphtheritic
anti-toXine, which promises TO he
safeguard against that scourge of
child-life. On the side Of hygiene, as
great improvement has been made in
clothing, exercise, cleanliness and
food. Especial attention has been
directed to the latter, and the efforts
of legislators have been persistently
used to secure purity of food, while
its preparation for consumption has
become science. The public caterers
are alive to the demand, and the cook
ing of America no longer deserves
the name of barbaric. Leaders in
this food reform have been the great
railroad companies, with their dining
cars, on which the best and choicest
Oatables are cooked and served in the
finest style. Pre-eminent among all
are the peerless dining cars of the
Burlington Route, operated on the
cafe plan. The many attractions of
these lines makes il the part of
wisdom to buy your ticket over the
Burlington, and this can be easily
done by applying To your home ticket
agent, or by writing to W. j. c..

"Oh, MY Poor Boy"

There are some persons who find
amusement in the misery and mad
ness of the Incorporate; and there
are intemperance speakers who
evoke mi.th b. nictuging scenes
which cause only misery But
those who have experienced the
terrible evils of intemperance find
little amusement in such exhibit
tions. Said one woman into whose
family this curse had entered,
"When l hear temperance lecturers
mimic, and make fun Of men who
get drunk, it makes me madl 1t is
no laughing matter to have a man
come home drunk"
There are some women-God pity
theml who have knowp what it is to
see for the first time a husband or a
son drunk! VINO can tell the
anguish of those through whose
souls the sword has thus been
thrust Those who have seen such
a sight will not soon forget it. Those
who have not seen it may count
themselves happy.
About the year 1862, says j. F.
Sanderson, | saw a scene [ shall
never forget. | was walking down
the main street of Nashua, n. H.,
and came in sight of Jim Bright's
saloon, a horrible place, from which
honest and sober people turned
aside with disgust and dismay. AS
| drew near the door opened, and ]
saw them lead out a boy of fourteen
or fifteen years, who was drunk,
sick and helpless Being unable 10
walk, he sat down upon the sidewalk
the picture of wretchedness and dis
tress. a number of persons stood
around him, laughing at his pitiable
condition, and cr3cking their
customary bar-room jokes. As /
drew nearer, | saw a well dressed
bright, intelligent-looking lady
walking up the street. She came
along apparently happy and uncon-
cerned, until she was. opposite the
saloon, when she cast a glance at the
helpless creature on the sidewalk,
and exclaimed, in tones that | shall
never forget:
"OH, MY POOR BoYp,,
Itseemed as if lifetime of agony
was condensed into that one ex-
which marked a revela-
ton of such sorrow as she had never
known before.
She could not leave him in his
misery and disgrace. Some of the
by -standers helped him up, and the
poor mother led away her drunken
boy.
There are places all about us
where mere boys are poisoned, de-
bauched and ruined by the accused
cup. Shall this curse consume
forever? Shall mothers rear children
to be devoured by this dragon? Or
shall men and women who fear
God and love righteousness, rouse
from their slumbers, and
seek to Danish this dire and bitter
evil from the homes and haunts of
men. Selected.

The plan for the SCriOtlOu IF the
liberties of the young people OF the
smaller Northwe stern cities by police
regulations that shall COMPEL them
To be off the streets by certain hour
of the evening, and which is now in
force in Saltwater, Grand Forks and
several of The lesser places in Mime
sofa and the DakOtas, is the out
come of agitation that has been kept
up for the past year or more by the
country papers all over the state,
whose editors have seen the evil effects
Of too much running about at night
by the children of their towns. The
ideathat this prOtectOrshipi is necessary
is spreading 10 many of the towns in
Minnesota, and it will not be at all
surprising if in the course of year or
two there shall be many places in the
state where some such injunction is
in force. The tendency of the age to
allow young America TO wander the
streets after dark at his or her, own
free will is becoming one of the
greatest evils of the day, and if this
police regulation shall have the
proper effect il will be cause for
congratulatiOn Those heads of
families who haven't the backbone
or wisdom to properly train their
own children, should be assisted by
the state, to the end that there may
be less neeu for prisons and police
courts in the future. The country
