Is much simpler than is sometimes
supposed. Health depends chiefly upon
perfect digestion and pure blood, and
the problem is solved very readily by

COMMERCE STREET.-A prominent
physician in a conversation yesterday
spoke of Commerce street. which has
been recently repaired at an expense OF
$3.50, and said "that there was no coun-
try road in the vicinity Of Alexandria
that was as bad as that street" Cam
eron street, between Columbus and AL
fred streets, remains INSTRUCTED with
torn-up cobbe stones, and the pave
ments of citizens are piled up with
bricks torn from the gutters. No effort
has been made to rectify this ugly con-
dition of affairs. Streets and alleys are
in worse condition than ever before
and more money has been spent on
them than ever before.

during the latter part of which heavy
thunder storm occurred, the weather
turned suddenly cold, the deepest snow
for years past fell. the mercury drop
ped below zero and veritable blizzard
prevailed for some days. One remark
able feature of this fall and winter has
been the absence of high winds.
