Sanitation In Asia,

The appearance OF plague at Bombay
and Calcutta has produced one good
effect at all events. Before its advent
those prosperous cities had come to Ee-
lieve that they had nothing to learn in
regard to sanitation. There was a time
when they were open to reproach in
such matters as open sewers, polluted
water, and what not. But by dint of
liberal expenditure of money and energy
they had made matters right and could
even challenge comparison with Paris,
Berlin and Vienna. When, however, the
awful eastern scourge. after striking
firm root at the western capital, flew
across the peninsula to the eastern, the
public became a little doubtful as to
whether sanitary precautions had been
duly observed. First came inquiry, then
dismay, indignation, wrath, as discov-
cry followed discovery, each more ap-
palling than the last. We refrain from
giving particulars. Even to read these
horrors is sickening. But a still more
terrible question presents itself. If the
two most cultured and w%ealthiest cities
in Hindustan are in this dreadful oon-
dition, what must be the state Of less
favored 'centers Of population in districts
where there are few whites and many
blacks? Were the plague to penetrate
inland, it would, we fear, find many
towns only too ready for its reception.

Exploring the Upper Niger.

After an absence Of three years the
expedition under Lieutenant Hourst has
safely returned to Europe from the Nj
ger. The party assembled the Senegal
river and then carried the sections Of
an aluminium boat overland to the up
per part of the Niger. On reaching this
river the pieces of the boat were put to-
gether and two native boats purchased.
In these the expedition sailed down the
Niger to Timbuktu, where a stay of
ten months was made. The voyage
from Timbuktu to Lokoja, at the con-
huence of the Niger and Benue, seems
to have been arduous, but from that
point the expedition was towed by a
launch belonging to the Royal Niger
oompany to the coast at Wari. How
much fresh Typographical information
Lieutenant Hourst's party has obtained
is not yet stated. This will depend on
the highest point reached on the Niger.
Reuters message states that the expedi-
ton first met the river Niger at
Hayes" but that town is on the Sene-
gal river. There can be no doubt, how
ever, that much valuable scientific in
formation was obtained, for the expedi-
tion travelled slowly and was admirably
equipped. One novelty was the use of a
monograph for reporting the native war
songs. The expedition kept peace with
the natives throughout the journey, in
which it differs greatly from some of
those previously conducted by French
explorers in that region. Mature.

Reflections of a Bachelor.

/ wonder why a girl always goes up
stairs ~pigeontoed.
If a woman loves a man, she will for
give him anything-except not loving
her.
You can slap a woman's face as often
rs you please if you wear kid gloves
when you do it.
The first thing a girl says after you
Kiss her is that she hadn't the least idea
you were going to.
Some widows would have the nerve,
il they married again, to hang the pic
ture of their first husbands up in the
bedroom.
The first thing some men will dc
when they get to heaven is to look
around for the men who owed them
money when they died.
A woman will forgive a man for kiss
ing her a good deal sooner than for act
ing sorry for it afterward.
When a girl is saying goodby to a
mar in the hall, why does she stand up
SO close and put her hands behind her?
Before a girl gets married she longs
for a man whom she can worship; after
she has been married a year she is gen
orally satisfied if he doesn't act ugly al
meal times. New York Press.
