An Important Sanitary Reform.

One of the most important sanitary
reforms. which has swept the country
in recent years and one to which at
tention cannot be called too often,
is that directed against the public
drinking cup. And in this, as well
as in other matters, sanitary Dawson
should keep pace with other places.
Individual drinking cups have come
in for a large share of public atten-
ton and use for the reason that they
are recognized as being one of the
surest means of conveying contagious
diseases. Travellers are already real
izing that they must carry their own
drinking cups, for railroads of the
country, whether or not they are OPP
Grating in states which have legisla-
tion on the subject, are gradually
withdrawing public cups from their
cars The better hotels have long
since done this, and it seems now

refreshments are served will use the
same precaution,
