Hints About Health.

The following from the Newport
News Press applies to Henderson as
we'll as elscwhere: "People cannot
attach too much Importance to keep
ing their premises clean and in good
sanitary condition. This is the season
of the year when disease is bred in
every pile of rubbish, when death
turks in emptied slops, and there is a
possibility of the hereafter in every
atom of filth. Back yards, that appear
to the naked eye, harmless and not
altogether unsightly are often the
abode Of germs, which, could they be
magnified sufficiently, would scare
the owners of the premises into pre-
mature graves. Could condition Of
perfect cleanliness environ us mo st
of the evils to which flesh is heir
would be strangers to our homes.
Perfect cleanliness may not be attain
ed in this dirty world, but we may,
at least, approach thereto, and there
is no excuse for filth
