the premises ELECTED the fact that the
health inspector notified these people
to throw all tin cans, garbage and
other rubbish down this hole into the
receptacle below. This nuisance
should be abated at once; stencil from
this place is abominable and it is a
matter of eXtereme surprise that no
contagious sickness has been CON
tracted as result of unsanitary CON
dition in this particular section. Near
, the taro patch, on property belonging
to the Bishop Estate, on property of
Yamada, there is wash place over a
disused water-hole. Examination Of
water therein revealed innumerable
wrigglers. There was, also, swarm
of daylight mosquitoes inside this
place. A sample of the water con-
tanning the wrigglers was taken to
headquarters of our committee, bot
tied as an exhibit or sad trophy. We
examined the water in the ditch ad-
jacent to the Japanese schoolhouse
(makai of carline at intersection of
King street and Beretania) and found
the same to be banked up (this can
be observed from streetcar) under
meath the schoolhouse, with no OUT
let. This state of affairs is most in
sanitary and demands immediate at
| tention.
The gore, at junction of the streets
mentioned, is swamp and is owned

have been made Cby our club for the
abatement of the noisome place, for
some months past.

PURIFYING SMOKE BY WASHING

A method of freeing chimney
gases from SCOT and dust by washing
has given quite astonishing results
at cocoa factory at York, England.
The gases are drawn by fan from
the boiler, passed through brick
lined chamber containing the water
sprays, and then led by tortuoua
course to a rather short stack. For
800 cubic feet of hot gases per hour,
one gallon Of water is used. The pea
slack coal contains 40 per cent. of
dust and in "a hours the smoke
washing has collected as much as
1000 pounds of grit, or about 1.5
per cent. of the coal burned.

gloves to protect my hands when
washing dishes. After using them I
noticed that my silver was almost
entirely black with tarnish. I learned
from a druggist that these gloves
were coated with 'iillers," and many
of them contained sulphur, which ex-
planned at once the reason for the
tarnish. The very soft rubber gloves
are harmless, but this pair was stiff
and white-coated. If the gloves are
