DRINK PLENTY OF COFFEE, if there is sickness around" writes pr. James Abernethy, in the British Medi- cal Journal Coffee is good preven- tative of typhoid fever and diptheria. This has been thoroughly demonstra- ted. Diphtheria and typhoid germs have been thrown into coffee, and the aromatic drink has invariably killed the germs within an hour. Hence amid ntagious conditions, do not neglect among other precautions to drink two cups of coffee every morn ing for breakfast"

THE GERM CATCHER:

The court house janitor this

catcher out to give it an airing
and the Health officer is supposed
to know about how many
Germs" the said janitor mur-
dered Somewhere between forty
and one-hundred and eighty mil
lion we suppose. Some people
are Directing to placing the said
germ catcher" back in place
and think the county should buy
a new germ catcher" at cost
of 800 to $500. What 5 the use?
Surely since the janitor has re-
novated it. it will be able to give
any new germ catcher points
in the game. 1t is an old story
we must not desert the old for
the new, besides the county
needs the five hundred dollars
for a new court house Then
again most of the high muck-e-
mucks at the Court house who
use the Germ Catcher" couldn't
be lucky enough to catch suf-
fcient germs" to do them any
injury. If the janitor can stand
it they ought to. Place the old
carpe. back in the old hall and
let 1t stay there as long as
the court house stands, when
the O. d court house is a thing of
the past, let the germ catcher

As To keiQhbOrS.

A good neighbor is always the
most desirable of possessions,
although in some cases their So
cial value is underestimate, says
an exchange. What constitutes
a good neighbor is also frequent
ly misconstrued, although tn
sensible deception of the term is
the neighbor who is friendly with
out being officious' helpful with
out being superfluously so and
finally, one who respects the pri-
vacy of others, household affairs
by a certain degree of formality
of manner
The social neighbor is not always
the useful neighbor, yet each in
her place has special influences
TO exert of equally beneficial
consequences. The sympathetic
neighbor is also a popular one,
but she has to exercise contin-
uous tact, lest her solacing in
fluence may occasionally be over
done orutilzed at untimely peri
DDS. The inquisitive neighbor is
always a dread to every body
within the reach of her inqusitive
curiosity, as she boes not seem to
have any intuitive respect for
others feelings as regards their
divulgence Of personal affairs to
an outsider.
The truest and most respected
of all neighbors, however. is the
one who always speaks well of
everybody who devotes the lar
gest share of her sympathies to
her own affairs, is chary of adj
ministering unsolicited advice,
and who always waits until her
social and useful capacities are
requested, and never renders her
self officious even in her most
sanguine efforts at proving to be
a good neighbor.
