Letter to D. P. Mcclellan

Dear Sir: Mrs. S. @. Ashes house in
Yorkville, S. g., was painted Devoe &
Reynolds 2l years ago and hadn't been
painted since; it is handsome house
and the paint was in good condition
when we were there three years ago.
Do we therefore say that Devoe 81
Reynolds wears q years in South Caro-
lima? No; on the sandy coast, where
the sun is hot and the flying sand cuts
the bark off trees, Devoe & Reynolds
is the only paint that wears more than
one year.
Localities differ; Devoe doesn It diff
fer. 1t is the paint that takes least
gallons to cover job and makes least
cost and wears longest; how long de-
pends on sun wind sand etc.
Yours truly

THE BOARD OF HEALTH MEETS
A Clean Bill of Health Reported from
Infectious Disease,

The regular monthly meeting of
the Board of Health was held on Mon
day evening, and it was very gratify-
ing to hear the report that for several
weeks Morristown had clean bill of
health so far as Infectious disease was
concerned, and at present had but one
mild case of diptheria, which was be-
ing cared for at All Souls, The Mem
orial Hospital authorities had taken
advantage of the lack of patients in
| the Barker pavilion TO make necessary
repairs and additions to the heating
plant. When case of diptheria was
reported the All Souls Hospital au-
thorities very kindly took the child in
an isolated room in the annex and
thereby prevented the possible spread
of the disease.
The dairy inspector reported that
all milk producers had complied with
the ordinance and the milk conditions
! were about all that could be desired
so far as condition of cows and care of
milk are concerned.
Some difficulty was reported in re-
gard to inspection of plumbing work
owing to failure to file proper plans.
1t was decided to call the attention
of the negligent parties to the pro-
visions of the code, after which any
neglect in this regard would involve
legal proceedings. The plumbing of
buildings is especially important in
view of the near completion of the
sewer system, as any defect renders
the occupants of the house with de-
fective plumbing liable to exposure to
infection from any part of the town.
The statistics for the month fol-
low -
Marriages, 13; births, IS; still
births, deaths, Is; total, As. Con-
tagious cases-typhoid fever, 5.

The immense success which has fol-
lowed L. T. Cooper during the past
year with his new preparation has eX-
ccedel anything of the kind ever be-
fore witnessed in most Of the leading
cities where the young man has intro
duced the medicine. Cooper has a
novel theory. He believes that the hui
man stomach is directly responsible
for most disease. To quote his own
words from an interview upon his ar
rlral ii. an eastern city: The average
man or woman cannot be sick if the
stomach is working properly. To be
sure there are diseases of a virulent
nature, such as cancer tuberculosis,
diabetes, etc, which are organic and
are not traceable to the stomach. but
even fevers can, in nine cases out OF
ten, be traced to something taken into
the stomach. All of this half-Sick

common, is caused by the stonacilic
