The Board Of Eealth.

The Board at yesterday aud
cleared up certain routine business.
President Smith was present
The Leper Settlement is to have a
bath house and y shed at the land
ing, and the details were left to Mr..
Meyers and Dr.. Oliver.
On the subject Of vaccination Dr.
Howard wanted explicit instructions
as to how far he should go 10 the
matter Of examination OF the chill
dren. The doctor described his
method, and it was suggested that
under the circumstance it might be
we'll to have lady physician to ex-
anime the girls. DR.. Howard said
that the certificate he was asked to
sign regarding the health Of the
children made it necessary for him
to give closer examination of the
bodies of children than he was al
lowed to give by the parents and
teachers.
President Smith thought it was
getting off the track to talk about
health certificates when the subject
OF discussion was really vaccination.
He believed from what he saw while
away that dependence could be-
placed in vaccination, and that the
children shonld all be treated.
DR.. Wood suggested that al vacci-
nation was not compulsory under
the law, the only way to reach the
children was to keep them out of
school unless they we're vaccinated
There is no way to compel adults to
be vaccinated except by making a
law to that effect, but he doubted
the constitutionality of such a law,

This is hot weather, food
spelling weather, unless the pro-
per attention is given to refriger-
ator suggestions. There's all
sorts of devices for keeping food
fresh, good, bad or indifferent.
Some of the named refrigerators
are no better than dry goods
boxes; the lining is not right
and the system of draught and
air circulation is defective.
In the United States there
were complaints against the
Quincy, complaints we had not
heard of here. When we were
at the Coast a few weeks ago, we
took the trouble to investigate
and learned that the objections
were all right, but they were
against the Quincy Challenge
refrigerator and not the Quincy
Cleanable.
We sell the Cleanqble, were
appointed sole agents for the
Hawaiian Islands and we don't
sell any other. The Quincy
Cleanable is lined with mineral
wool, the greatest non-conductor
known to science; the Quincy
Challenge is lined with charcoal
and is cheap combination that
is unserviceable.
Foods are easily kept sweet
and appetizing with right re-
frigerator to help your Summer
health which is easier kept than
regained. There are many re-
frigerators, some excellent ones
but none equal the Quincy
Cleanable. Profits are forgotten
when we sell them.

to pass by the business portion of

noticed something that made him
think there was a fire inside. He
investigated and called the night
wal lehman of Wilder g. Co. to SEQ if
he was right in his suspicious, and
the alarm was promptly turned in
and as promptly responded to by
the Fire Department. The fire
which was in the rear portion Of the
business Office was quickly extin-
guished, and the damage done is
practically nominal, Except for its
early and accidental discovery the
fire might have been much more

The Birthplace of "a ilberforce.

The house in which w. Wilber-

born, at Hull, in 1859, was this week
sold by auction for $4,000. The
mansion, quaint Dutch-looking
house, with COPIED wall in front
and central gateway, is visited
annually by thousands OF visitors,
especially Americans; and it is no
unusual sight to see bands OF neg
roes travelling via Hull to visit the
place. Efforts were made to secure
it to the town by means OF public
subscriptions, but the scheme fell
through, and the premises will now
be utilized as warehouses.
