We want you to see the
-HUMANA

Those who come here and see
the eLAUTER-HUMANA for the first
time are apt to be skeptical about it's
artistic possibilities; they quickly
change into enthusiastic admirers
when the instrument has been played
for them, or when they have played
upon it for themselves. With this in
strument, as with no other of its class,
the most artistic results are realized, for
every shade of expression is possible to
as great an extent as in playing by
hand. With the LAUTER-T1UMANA
the performer can play exactly as he or
she may like to play.
Imagine the delight Of having a
LAUTER-HUMANA in your home.
With it every member of the family
becomes a performer; with it music is
accessible to all. All classes of music
can be played classical, popular, vo-
cal, dance, etc., etc.
The LAUTER-E1UMANA is act
ually TWO PIANOS IN ONE. 1t
can not only be played with the aid Of
music roll and treadles, but it can also
be played by hand in the usual way.
Perhaps you have piano in your
home which is seldom played upon
because no member of the family
plays satisfactorily. We can take it in
part payments of LAUTER-EIU-
MANA; we will arrange to receive the
difference in reasonable sums monthly.
We gladly send catalog of this
wonderful instrument to any address
on request.

THE BOARD OF HEALTH MEETS
scarlet Fever Cases Decreasfng-M Milk
and Dairy Inspection Discussed.

Scarlet Fever Cases Decreasing-Mil
and Dairy Inspection Discussed.
The regular meeting of the Board of
Health was held on Monday evening.
The report of DR.. Douglas, the health
physician showed that seventeen cases
of contagious diseases had been dis
charged from the hospital and from
quarantine. A number of other cases
had been examined but not discharged.
He had also visited children sent home
from school. Scarlet fever cases are
decreasing in number but it was the
opinion of the Board that no vigilance
should be spared to safeguard the pub
lie health as in the long and tedious
period of convalescence people grew
careless about exposure. A set OF
rules for quaranteened houses were
ordered prepared which would be rig
orously enforced or patients would be
sent to the hospital. The matter of
persons going inside the lines to talk
with patients at the hospital was dis
cussed and it was decided that a few
arrests and fines would stop it.
The secretary was directed to COM
municate with negligent physicians
and ask them to explain why they neg
lected to report tuberculosis and other
contagious diseases with the warning
that a repetition of the offence will
bring legal proceedings.
The health inspector is a busy man
as his report for February showed six
complaints received, thirty-two in
spections made, thirty-fve nuisances
abated, eleven houses and forty eight
rooms fumigated. The contagious dis
ease cases reported were scarlet fever
nine, diphtheria three, tuberculosis
two, typhoid fever one.
The matter of milk inspection was
taken up with the understanding that
the board would make a tour of in
spection and also ask for reports OF
tubercular tests.
