And sorrow here below:

And folks that only set
Around all day i'm luxury.

Some achin' hearts inside!

OF bloatcd millionaircs.
But no such lucky people live
Around here anywhcres.

Loom up immense and grand,
with trees ana things around them and
a mighty lot of land.
But oh they're only empty shells.

Have dinin' rooms and parlorS which

The papers talk about the rich,
There's, no such people; though,
We're all IA lot of miZZcrbu
Poor pauperS here below.

Are only paste, | guess;
The chromOS on the walls are worth
Ten cents apiece or less;
They'd give their grand pianos to

If he was only kind enough
To haul the things away
The papers talk OF people who
Make millions every year.
But no such lucky ones as that
Are payin taxes here.

And see the windows shine:

And things that look So tinc:

Have millions piled away.
But amt never found none yet.

Contra Ia saluDridad
Los tubOs reSpiratOriOS.

Conforme con 10 que escribe <La
Hygiene, raproducimes de sus CO.
lumnas lC que sigue:
<Se ha dado en- la mania de CO.
locar tubes de hierro, manera de
chimeneas, en- los inodoros, y cier-
tamente hemos podido descnbrir la
razon cientifica de esta determine
ci6p.
Lo unico que Sc 1ogra es 1evar
los p's3s baios los gases irrespil a.
bles que los tubos llevau de las cloa
cas- o de los 'fpczos negros con ino-
dor0s.."
Cuando uEa casa no tiene en- CO.
nexi6n su excusado con ia cloaca no
deEe tolerarse Ell inodoro: porque
est9 necssita sgaa en- abundancia y
es de suponer que pronto ell inodo-
70 sera un foco de emanaciones inso
portables.
En- muchas casas de Ia Habana
Sc han puesto en- communication los
escusados de pozos regrcs con las
cloacas y Sc les ha puesto inodoro s;
entonces Ell pozo negro no Sc ena,
siao q medias, deramandose en- la
cloaca por su parte superior.
S 6 estosIinodoros s. les af1ade
el ap6ndice d d una chimenea, les ga
ses que por ella salen ser&n insopor-
tables En- los dfas de POGO vientc,
bajaran los gases y ar&E inhabi-
ia bles las ca sas proxlmas.
No nos e explicamos esos tubos
en- los inodort IS bien colocados: pero
aurque no nos los expliquemos Sc
guiran poniendose con perjuicio de
la salnd pdblica.
<Nuestra experiencia confirma
10 dicho por La Higiere.'' y recla
mamos, pues, que desaparezca ese
atentado contra la saluDridad.
