In some countries in the making of walking

fore, for such of human ills as come
from the surface Of the body, is soap
and water, applied with considerable
energetic rubbing.
For the purpose of thoroughly re-
moving the distractions and accumu-
lations from the surface of the skin, a
pure soap should be employed, be-
cause such soap is an easy and perfect
solvent to dirt. 1t has been found also
that the purer the soap the stronger
it's antiseptic properties. BY antisep-
tic properties, we mean it's power to
destroy bacteria.
With good public sanitation and
careful personal cleanliness, the
chances for bacterial disease getting a
hold upon the individual is materially
lessened, and serious epidemics made

WATCH
But the Thief, VIII Scott, Skipped
Away.


Harry Mckay, a well known deputy
sheriff. did some smooth detective
work yesterday in recovering a watch
stolen from a Colorado horseman by a
young nan named Will Scott, whom
he was grub stalking. Scott, who was
formerly employed at the Alvarado,
lost his job and was up against the
real living proposition. The horseman
took pity on him and give him a lift
on meals and other sundries. Satur-
day night an informal affair took
place in the horseman's rooms on First
street at which Scott was the only
guest. He departed late and the next
morning a gold watch and considerable
money was missing, so was Scott.
1t seemed like a case of he came, he
saw. he grabbed, but Harry McKay's
quick ear caught a umo that one of
the cooks at the Alvarado had recently
hit a bargain on q fine gold watch. He
investigated and found out that the
cook had purchased the watch from
scott for S.. When the horseman saw
the watch he identified it as the one
he lost. Scott has gone and that seems
to be all there is to it.

ABOUT BACTERIA.
Their Nature and the Ways of Getting
Rid of Them.

Bacteria are jelly like cells, of mic
roscopal size, and of various shapes
and species, which produce disease.
These cells vary in size from one-fif-
tieth of an inch to as small as one
twenty-five-thousandths of an inch.
Bacteria belong to the vegetable king
dom. and multiply with great rapidity;
the method being by dividing into two
equal parts. This division is said to
sometimes occur as often as an hour.
1t is only lack of sustenance that pre-
vents their assuming enormous pro-
ions. These bacteria exist in almost
everything; in the air, in the water, in
of our bodies, in the cavities thereof,
in fact almost everywhere.
Perhaps there is no way, or place,
that these bacteria may do more o n
slant and daily harm to health than
upon the surface of the human body.
The basteria thrive best and multiply
faster in dirt, and heat and moisture.
Almost twenty per cent Of the total
execration of the body is through the
skin. The skin itself is constantly re-
newed from underneath, and the cpl
dermis, or outer skin, is constantly
being cast off. These two facts, to-
gether with the inevitable external ac-
emulation, supply a fertile field for
the bacteria, while the heat and mois-
ture are furnished by the body itself.
Unless the skin is persistently and
constantly %cleansed, all kinds of trou-
blous diseases result. This cleansing
is largely mechanical. Rubbing with
water produces much of the needed
elimination. The use of soap makes
cleansing more easy and more effect
i've, because soap is a solvent, and
~loosens the accumulation on the skin
so that they may be more thoroughly
removed.
Medication, in soap, is of small
value, because the progress of the eX-
creta is outward, the work of the SOAP
is only to remove debris, and 1t is diff
ficult to impregnate a stream from
mouth to source The remedy, there
