Council Proceedings. Continued from 1st page. “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. Wm. Camwell. S. J. Cassels, Secretary. Alderman Merrill introduced the follow ing ordinance, which was passed on first nnd second reading, viz : Be it ordained, 1st.

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. Copyright, 18S8, by world's Dis. Med. ass’w. 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 —Medical Classics, r~ m- 4- mm 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.
