sD-The proposed extension OF
9Th street has already cost the gen
eral taxpayers Of Jasper about $50,
and the expense has hardly begun
yet. But when taxpayers, not
particularly interested, will sign
petitions, as in this case, to compel
mourning the large expense, they
should not grumble when tax pay
ing time comes. 1t would be a
good thing if those who pay the
taxes would consider little before
they sign petitions compelling them
selves aud neighbors to pay increased
taxes without any probable compen-
satory benefit.

1HE PORTS or THE SKIN.
Millions of Them. But If They Are Closed
the Person VIII Die


II IS the frequently expressed opinion
OF scientific medical men Of the present
day that the skin which covers the
human body acts more powerfully upon
the economy OF the system Of man than
any other organ.
So long as the surface IS kept clean 10
appearance II IS generally considered TO
have received due and proper care. But
the Office for which this external covering
OF the human frame was designed, was
not merely for ornament neither does
the duty Of its owner end with the pc
riodical application OF soap and water.
liz would be difficult TO ascertain tne
precise relative action which the skin
exerts upon each Of the various processes
that are constantly going on within the
body. IL Is a fact that II the skin OF the
body is covered with any impermeable
substance, the person dies. This expert
ment has frequently been tried upon ami
mails with but one rcsult-death.
