Warmth In Old Age.

In old age remember that warmth and
an even temperature are just as essential
to the welfare of the aged as proper
food Many old persons die from bron-
chitis, for example, induced by exposure
to q temperature which, harmless to
the young and middle aged, acts severe.
ly on the lungs of the old. The bedroom
of an old person should be kept at a heat
of not less than 60 degrees, and natural
ly chills should be especially guarded
against. In respect of the feeding of the
aged, second childhood is like the first
childhood. Little and often," is the
motto, and old people should have their
food given them in a state of easy di-
gestion, above all things.-New York

CONSIDERING PLANS.
The Board Of Supervisors In Committee 81
the whole.

The Board Of supervlsors In Committee Of
the whole.
The board of supervisors heard the
report of the building committee this
morDing-practical as given in THE
ARGUS Monday eveniDg-which was
received and placed on file. The
board then resolved itself into q COM
mittee of the whole, with Supervisor
Carey as chairman. for the purpose
Of considering all the plans presented
for the new court house.
NUNS, the Word.
The policy of keeping the public
in ignorance of what is transpiring
regarding the plans and specifications
for the new building, is still being
adhered to. Several prominent citi-
zens, actuated purely from unselfish
motives, were denied admittance to
the sacred chamber. although the
county officials were allowed to feast
their eyes upon the carefully guarded
documents. just what special pre-
negative these officials have over pub
lic.spirited citizens, The ARGUS fails
to understand. Neither can we see
why their wishes should be consult
ed, unless it be that they are to have
a life tenure on the different Offices
they occupy, and it is the desire of
the board to arrange each Office to
suit the ideas of the present occu-
pant.
Labor Resolutions Presented.
The mass of resolutions passed by
the various labor organizations, pro-
testing against the proposed appoint
ment of S. j. Collins as superintend-
ent of construction, we're presented
to the board last evening. They
we're received and placed on file.
