the originator Of the idea that nature

Why do some people in China and
when cholera or some other scourge
comes? The answer. In one word, is
dirt. The people live in filthy homes
with filthy surroundings. They know
nothing of the laws Of sanitation. They
permit litter and garbage to lie around
the premises. Thousands Of them live
like pigs in pens. When pestilence
stalks abroad they are its easy victims
In towns where the people are wise
enough to keep their streets and their
private premises clean such plaques
find comparatively few easy marks
Happily. most people in America are
not to be compared with the ignorant
Chinese and the low class Hindus In
the matter of cleanliness, and yet there
are some Americans who violate the
laws OF sanitation constantly. 1t is
to show this sort of citizens the error
of their way that the nation wide
campaign for cleanliness is being
waged- Cleanliness of person and
premises is preventive Of disease
In most towns the authorities keep the
streets and other public places measur
ably clean, and In some towns there
are local laws requiring people TO
make their back yards presentable.
but mans home Is his castle. even
though 1t be but howell. and it is W
to the family and not to the law to
keep the interior premises in a sanitary
condition.
Recent experiments and inveStiga
lions have proved conclusively that

are spreaders of disease The Hy

Water Colors.

Pigments have been used from the
earliest times and are now used by all
savages for decorative purposes. But
the paint used in Babylon and Nineveh
and In Pompeii was composed of pig
ments mixed. not with oil. but with
water to which had been added a lit
tie glue, egg albumen or perhaps some
times casein. which is albuminous mat
ter from milk or the gluten from
cereal grains. Glue. however. which
was well known TO the ancient
Egyptians. was the most used binding
material. Such paints are now known
as fresco paints or water colors.
