A WORD OF PROTEST.

As to the Throwing of Rubbish into the
streets and Alleys.
Throwing dccayc'l vegetables, parings,
end refuse into back-yarGs is practice
that cannot be too strongly condemned.
The soil about our dwellings cam
not be too carefully guarded in the
matter Of cleanliness. Where the house
refuse cannot be buried, it can be burned;
with some trouble, to be sure, but with
less tllaD to have typhoid fever or diph-
liberia, or any filth disease in the family.
House slops that cannot 90 into the un-
derground drain, should be distributed,
scattered, not thrown in one place until
the air is tainted for rods around.
Chloride Of lime and copperas are
cheap disinfectants and should be fire.
quently used in solution where the soil
is sour and has odOfs unpleasant. Indoor
drains can be kept sweet by the occa-
siOnal use of solution Of carbonate of
soda, one Of the cheapest and best of
cleansing materials. There is another
source of disease to be guarded against:
the filling Of door-yards with soil drawn
from uncleanly sources because it can be
had for taking it away. 1t is not cheap
at any price, for it lowers the tone of
health, diminishes resistance to disease
and impairs the strength to breathe
unwhOles0me air. The drainage from
such soil reaches the water supply and
makes the well q fruitful source of dis
ease. While the ground is frozen the
danger is held in allegiance, but when the
frost comes out in the spring, and the
damp soil warns into a steamy eyapo-
ration, what is to hinder the develop
ment of any amount OF disease gerNs.
One cannot protect ones own household
in sanitary matters unless the immed-
late neighbOrhoOd co-operates in careful
ness.
It's as often through ignorance of
the danger and of the remedy as through
negligence. Stables, hen-yards and
easy household ways" are out of place
in crowded neighbOrhoOds, and only ex-
treme care prevents their being a menace
to health. Our health officers are busy
men, and the doctors cannot spend their
time in going about instructing people
how to prevent i'll health. But intelli-
gence and painstaking on the part of
each family can make our back-yards as
wholesome as our front ones.

YE OLDEN TIME PAPERS.

Two Papers that are of Sufficient Ago to
Relics.
A patron of the Enterprise handed US
two papers published in Olden times.
One, the Massachusetts Gazette" pub
lished in Boston, bearing the date March
3, 1774, contains one headed article CEN
suring the Cmgregationalists for causing
the arrest and imprisonment of eighteen
members OF the Baptist Church for refus-
ing to pay the special tax to sustain the
church Of the land.
One local paragraph states, '1t has
been fifteen weeks since we have heard
from England, twelve weeks being the
usual time, and the delay of three Weeks
Of the arrival of the vessel is causing
some ALARM
Aihang the advertisements appears fol-
lowing:
WANTED--A sober, discreet girl to
work In small family.
One druggist adyertises special pills
for the cure Of mad dog bites.
A dealer in grain has peas to exchange
for wheat.
The other paper is published in Kings
ton, n. Y, and bears the date Of January
A. 1900. Its columns are dressed in
mourning and gives full account of the
death ard burial Of General Washington
which occurred at Mt. Vernon, Va.
Political matter ran quite high in those
days.
Among the advertisements is found a
notice for the sale Of number of slaves.
The editor of the paper offers cash for
rags delivered at his sanctum. The style
Of type used in both papers makes it
difficult matter for the present genera
tiOn to read it.

The man who eats because lie is hun

moment his hunger is appeased is the

STARING AT STARVATION.
Mines in Michigan Shut Down and
Many Miners Are "Foodless."

Bessemer, Mich. August 2.-The Til
den mine yesterday closed down both
the day and night shifts of No. 8 shaft.
This completes the shut down of the
Rockefeller mines in this city. Nos. g.,
{, :. and 10 shafts now employ just
men enough to keep the mine clear of
water. In Il large number of the mines
the pumps have been taken out and the
mines allowed 20 fill with water.
The Gogebeck range mines are practi-
cally all shut down at Hurley, Ironwood
Bessemcr and Wakefield. There are
less than one thousand men at work on
the range, where at one time over 5000
men were employed. 1t is certain that
II few months of idleness will find hun
dreds Of families in destitution. The
several mining companies have allowed
their employees all unoccupied lands for
use as "Pingree FARMS" but the army
worms have destroyed the last hope of
the miners of having at least vegetables
to keep body and soul together during
the coming winter. The poor fund is eX-
hausted and there are large number of
outstanding orders, and the idle miners
and their families are therefore staring
starvation in the face.
