“Los Angeles is ft city of from 70,000 to
80,000 people. It is almost without sewers.
More than three-fourths of it has no
nge nt all. The small sewers we have arc
choked and overflowing, and foul matter is
often forced out of them. Sewer gas from
leaks and overflowing sewers floods in the
business centers at night, and in the resi
dence portions, the air is heavy with foul
odoys t and gases from neighboring eess-pooIs.
The soil of the city is in general such that
it does not absorb the foul matter, and that
renders the situation worse. In many
parts of the city the odor at nights from
ecss-pools is so strong that residents are
obliged to close their windows. Children
are dying with diphtheria as a result of
these cess-pools.”
To longer delay action will he worse
than criminal. Money should not count
whore the health of the people is at stake.
We trust that the press of California will so
arouse public opinion that this blot on the
escutcheon of the gem of the Pacific coast
may be removed, and Los Angeles once
more regain its reputation as a health re
sort.
While in a subsequent number of the
Journal, a member of (lie city Board of
Health says : “The paragraph from a local
paper is simply clap-trap, which grew out
of a heated newspaper contest prior to the
sewer bond election, as figures will dem
strate, and publishes a favorable mortuary
report for the place, yet the cess-pool nui
sance and its odors was not denied, and the
writer voted for the bonds.”
We urge upon your honorable body, to
take such stops as will prevent even tie
color of foun lation, tor such reports in rc
gard to Thomasville.
In view, thereof, of the present financial
impossibility of your city, to make a perfect
system of sewerage, for the many boarding
houses and hotels now built and in process
of construction, we recommend that the
cartage system be applied to these buildings,
nnd that night soil and kitchen slops be
hauled away. We suggest to the council
to look into the matter of operation, cost
and practicability of the purchase of a cre
matory. Respectfully,
T. M. McIntosh,
Pres. B. of H.

CUPID’S HARNESS.
Most women naturally look forward to
matrimony as their proper sphere in life, but
they should constantly bear in mind that a
fair, rosy face, bright eyes, nnd a healthy,
well-developed form, are the best passports
to a happy marriage. All those wasting dis
orders, weaknesses, and functional irregulari
ties peculiar to their sex, destroy beauty
and attractiveness and make life miserable.
An unfailing specific for these maladies is to
bo found in I)r. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
It is the only medicine for women, sold by
druggists, under a positive guarantee
from tho manufacturers, that it will givo
satisfaction in every case, or money will bo
funded. This guarantee has l>een printed
the bottle-wrappers, nnd faithfully carried
out for many years. $1.00 per Bottle, or Six
Bottlos for $5.00.

Hurried Eating.
It is a mistake to eat fast. Justifi
cation performed in haste must be
imperfect even with the best of teeth,
and due admixture of the salivary
secretion with the food cannot take
place When a crude mass of inad
equately crushed muscular fiber, or
undevided solid material of any dis
cretion is thrown into the stomach it
acts as mechanical irritant, and sets
up a condition in the mucous mem
brane lining that organ which greatly
impedes, if it does not altogether pre
vent, the process of digestion. When
the practice of eating quickly and
filling the stomach with unprepared
food is habitual, the digestive organ
is rendered incapable of performing
its proper functions. Either a much
larger quantity of food than would be
necessary uuder natural conditions is
required, or the sistem sufFers from
lack of nourishment. The matter
may seem a small one, but it is not so.
Just as a man may go on for years
with defective teeth, imperfectly mas-
tificating bis food, and wondering
why he sutlers from indigestion, so a
man may live under an infliction of
hurried dinners and endure the conse
quent loss of health, without knowing
why he is not well or how easily the
cause of his illness might he remedied

An Iowa farmer, who believed in
having two strings to his bow, put up
'in his garden this sigh : “Boys don’t
touch these melons, for they are green
and God sees you.”
The world may owe you a living,
young man, but the account cannot
be turned over to an attorney for col'
lection.—Jamestowu News.
