were TO be used to register the. names OF
the various women, the names OF the men
they were supposed to be initiating and
the various peculisrities of manner OF
speech that had lead to the supposed rec.
ognition. Even mustaches n boards were
supplied by the thoughtful hostess, these
being passed about next, and then cikars
cigarettes and a generous variety of pipes
also gloves, eyeglasses and canes, tina
nothing might be l~acking-and then the fur
commenced in earnest. Many a valuabl,

The Typhoid Few er.

The prevalence of typhoid fever in
the town has caused the local Board Of
Health to advise and urge the boiling OF
all water to be used for drinking.
There are said to be over hundred
cases in the town, which is not greatly
alarming for a population of fifteen
Thousand and better, Jut the fear is
that it will spreai, and become epidem-
ic.
Whether or no the present water sup
ply is the cause is a question, as it mas
not been analyzed, but the more pre-
cautions taken the better. Some weeks
ago when the dam burst and the supply
ran short, almost everybody, for few
days, used water from the old wells
about town; and besides this the drain
ings of the dam went into the pipes, and
and the filter became clogged.
Physicians generally ascribe the pres
ence Of the typhoid germ to impure wa
ter, and yet the same germ can and
does live in the air, and the excavating
of old cess-pools has been known to
spread the disease.
We commend the Board of Health
for their action, particularly as there
arc some cases of typhoid near the new
dam, and also recommend the burning
of all decaying vegetable matter about
your premises, the spreading of lime on
cellar floors, back yards, etc.
And another thing, as the small pox
will probably spread from the city over
the country, it would be we'll for every
body to keep a saucer of cream of tar
tar sitting on your table or sideboard.
and for each person Take q pinch or 1l
before each meal.
