MANY Think!

when the Creator said to woman,
I'm sorrow shalt thou bring forth
children" that a curse was pro-
nounced against the human race,
but the joy felt by every Mother
when she first presses to her heart
her babe, proves the contrary.
Danger and suffering lurk in
the pathway of the Expectant
Mother, and should be. avoided,
that she may reach the hour when
the hope of her heart is to be real
lied, in full vigor and strength.

An Old Citizen Tells What He Knows and
Thinks About 1t: Let's Have Artesian
EDITOR ARGUs;-We see in
your paper Of February 1st an
article in regard to pure water
from Little River.
OF that matter we have to say
that we know something about
that stream. The farmers in
Johnston county who work the
lands on Little River do not
drink the river water. They know
that it is not fit to drink. There
are five dams on the river in said
county. The nearest one to
Goldsboro is about IA miles away.
That dam IS about 12 feet high
and Was first built in 1857. With
in the first five miles above said
dam in the river, there are over
one thousand logs, trees, brush
and all that it takes to poison
water and render it unfit for a
hunan being to drink. Much
nearer Goldsboro than the above
dam the river is partly filled
with logs, brush and filth OF ev.
cry kind. Had We been here las
summer when DIR. Mckee visited
the city in regard to the malig-
nant type Of fever then existing
here, we would have asked hin
to let's take trip up the river.
that he might see the condition
OF the stream from which the
people of Goldsboao drink so
called "city water. % The waite;
from Little river, either boiled
frozan, or filtered, is entirely un
fit for the people Of any city o.
town TO drink.
Give US taxation, artesian wa
ter and sewerage, and let's max
it better for the rising genera
ton, if SO we can.
We viii. cheerfully pay ou
part.

Yours respectfully,
THOS. B. Stillman."

Again, when the Health Con-
ference was held here October
IS, 1897, DR.. Richard Lewis (of
the State Board of Healthy
stated in answer to question
''that the water supplied to the
patrons Of the Goldsboro Water
Company was good. and that the
amount of alum used for coagula-
ton was SO very small that it
was not injurious" If Little .Riv-
er is partly filled with logs,
brush and filth of every kind"
why does not the Board of Health
enforce the law which makes it a
misdemeanor for any person "to
place anything or substance by
which the water of Little River
above the pumping station and
in Wayne county shall be rene
dered Or become liable to be rem
dered unwholesome, contaminats
| ed Or otherwise unfit for domes-
| tic purposes"
Almost all authorities on the
purifca ton of water for domestic
purposes, advocate sand filtra-
ton. Is it probable that thous>
ands of sand filters are being ops
Grated all over the world at an
enormous expense by companies
who have made the publication
of water study, if it had not
been definitely proved that it is
the best known method of filtra-
ition?
