Sanitation In the Middle Ages.

g. The Greeks and Romans paid speciai
attention to the physical culture OF
their youth, to public water supplies
and baths, and Athens and Rome
were provided with sewers early IN
their history. During the middle ages
sanitation received a decided cneck,
and this was the most unsanltary
period in history. Most european
towns were built compactly and sur
rounded by walls. The streets were
narrow and winding, and light and
air were excluded. The accumulation
of filth was frightful. Stables and
houses we're close neighbors. The
dead were buried within the church
wards or in the churches. All condt
tions were favorable for the spread OF
Infectious diseases, and in the four
teenth century alone the Oriental or
bubonic plague-the Black Death OF
recent historians-carried off fourth
of the population of Europe. The
birth-rata was much less than the
death-rate normally. The cities had
to be continually re-populated from
the country.

Familiar Phrases overworked.

In the Era William S. Walsh pleads
for much-abused words and phrases:
In these days when everybody is
writing and everybody seems to sue
ceed, would it not be we'll to start a
society for the protection of words
and phrases? Many Of these are so
brutally overworked by the amateur!
The winged words, the words that
burn, the thoughts that breathe, the
telling phrases, do they not clamor
loudly for a rest? That very sentence
affords an Illuminating example of
what l mean. How apt, how vivid,
how expressive it would be If all its
epithets had not lost their vitality
through overwork. To the sated
reader the whole sentence is but the
echo of an echo; it not merely means
nothing, but it is robbed even OF its
sound aud fury. The greenhorn who
complained of Hamlet that it was too
full of quotations unconsciously ex-
pressed a great fact through the me-
dunn of bull. In wrong-headed way
