II Is suggested that the European
practice Of purifying sewage before
discharging it into streams and riv-
ers is more in keeping with modern
sanitary teachings than the careless
disposition in the United States. That
epidemics are spread in this manner
is not denied, yet the matter in this
country Is waived aside without even
investigation: The dumping Of house
refuse on suburban land is at best but
a make-shift, and strangely tolerated
in civilized communities. There 10 no
doubt that the expense OF destruction
in some form of refuse burning furn-
ace would be more expensive than
present methods of disposing OF the
material, but it would be an applica-
ton Of practical sanitary science well
worth the difference.

o'clock in the morning, and sometimes
he quits at 6 o'clock in the evening,
but more frequently he keeps at It till
midnight or even daylight He re-
fuses to be disturbed for meals. It is
not surprising, therefore. that hig
physical system is deranged and that
his friends live in constant fear of his
collapse. His employees labor nine
hours a day, and when they leave the
shops they cease to think about their
work and are able to cat with good ap-
petite. Edison's case is like thou
