There must bo cWhnlinosg—of the dishes, the cleansing water an l the hands of all who touch the food or its receptacles.” Ho gives this dictum: “Every dish and glass should be washed In boding water and rinsed with pure, boiling water. You can not have clean or safe dishes if they are dlpi>ed In a pail of vllo and contaminated water. There imisflio actual effort at cleansing, or wo might ns well 'eat from a common dish with no pretense at purity.” RIVER DIVERTED TO GET BODY OF DROWNED BOY CISCO, Cal.—A river's course! fT BUSINESS AS U8UAL VALLES DEN.
