DEFECTS AND REMEDIES.

1t is not difficult to find defects in
everything, but it is vastly different to
correct them. Those who have broken
Natures laws through carelessness,
overwork or wrong living, have not
only to recognize the presence of dis
ease, but must suffer greatly before
they realize the necessity of seeking a
remedy, which will entirely wipe out
every vestage of the old trouble, so that
nature may reassert herself.
Too many make the mistake of seek
ing temporary relief. giving the future
no thought, and they gradually drift
into conditions that preclude any posi-
bility of permanent relief.
There is no question but what if the
right remedy is applied, the system can
be restored to normal condition, is the
statement made by the eminent physi
clan, DR.. l.. NJ. Turbin, of Chicago, who
honors our city with one days visit
each month, and offers his services tc
those of our friends, who are suffering
from any form OF chronic disease.
The doctor is so widely known for the
good he has done, and the remarkable
recoveries he has been the means o.
bringing about, that he needs no Other
recommendation. He is thorough
conscientious physician, who keeps hi
promises to his patients, and gives ad
vice to any who consult him at his offic,
in Wausau. He will visit Wausau a
the Bells hotel, Monday, Sept. 2lst.

SEVERAL VIOLATORS.

On Thursday the engineer at the
pumping station reported that over
$500, 900 gallons of water were pumped,
or about / ,000000 more than ordinarily
at this period of the year. This set the
city officials thinking, with the result
that several "spotters" were set to work,
armed with wrenches, and as result
numerous people who had violated the
city ordinance regarding sprinkling be-
tween the hours of s a. m. and 5. p. m
found themselves without a water
supply. 1t will cost them So to have the
water turned on again. In addition to
this they are subject to fine under the
provision of the ordinance. Everyone
who has water service In his house
ought to be familiar with the wording
of the ordinance and there is no excuse
for the violators. Waste of water at
such time as this when the whole sur
rounding country is threatened with
destruction is criminal.
A noted Frenchman said that France
could live opulently on what America
throws away.
AS an evidence that the statement OF
the Frenchman is very little, if at all,
overdrawn, we only have to point to one
common instance of our prodigality-
the use, or rather misuse, of our public
water supply.
Go into any hotel, factory, store or
even your own household, and how
many persons will you find who make a
modest use of this convenience. What
hotel guest, tenant, employe or member
of the family circle will close faucet
as soon as a reasonable amount Of water
has been used
The fact is that wastefulness is so
common that people think nothing of it.
The habit is widespread, deep rooted,
inborn 1t is trait of the American
people.
At time as this when there are fires
almost everywhere in the surrounding
country, every drop of water should be
conserved, and he who is guilty of
wastefulness is not deserving of any
sympathy for any penalties which the
city authorities may impose upon him.
a city ordinance has been passed and
was placed on the ciy's books years
ago, regulating the use of water. Ii
was never enforced because at most
times there was an ample supply, but at
the present time no one should blame
the city authorities for taking steps
| toward its enforcement.
