LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
A Word for Cleanliness.

Mir. Editor: This is an age of progress, and perhaps in no department having to do with human welfare is greater advance being made than in the science of sanitation. Laying un- der tribute, as it does, the higher sci ences, it still has it's foundation in simple cleanliness. Uncleanness, wherever found, is recognized as fer tile source of disease. Whether in food or drink, the air we breathe or the thoughts of the mind, it is bound to produce it's evil effects.
 Tn the matter of food products, com mendable effort is being put forth to protect the consumer from adultera- tions; and cleanliness in manufacture and distribution is being more and more insisted upon.
 Of the later manifestations of public opinion is the demand that more re- gard for cleanliness to be observed in the manner of bringing to notice of the buyer the fruits and vegetables offered for sale by the retail dealer. That they should be exposed under conditions fla voring contamination by street dirt and inviting flies from the nearest sta- ble or garbage barrel to track and trademark with their filth without let or hindrance is an Offense against cleanliness that twentieth century first decade enlightenment will not much longer tolerate. Questions of health and fastidiousness forbid.
 Some cities are already demanding reforms that shall protect from un- wholesome conditions all foods until they are placed in the hands of the consumer. Norwich should be found in the van of this movement, and not a tailender. The demands of health, civic pride and our own sense of re- finement should offer a sufficient in- centive to the accomplishment of this purpose. An ordinance of the health department would no doubt be the shortest and quickest route, barring that cooperative determination to turn down" any food exposed to flies, dust or other contamination. Dealers are only awaiting the word to serve us as we desire. R. A.

A Question.

Mir Editor: There is a small locali- ty in the Rose included within a ra- dius of three hundred feet in which there are more than twenty residences, the owners of which keep their grounds and sidewalks in more than an aver age good condition; but the streets are none the best, while the gutters are grown up with weeds, some two feet high. The inhabitants are law abid- ing, long suffering and feel that they pay fully their share of the taxes with little in return. Now is this treat ment just right? or is it what they must expect?
