City of London Roused Against tho Practice. , The Public Health, Department of the city of London is embarking up- on a, crusade in which it will bave the sympathy of every decent, man, and woman and equally, it Is to be boped. the active support of public i bodies and iarge employers of labor,' says the Laueet. Tim department! heti issued a circular asking for co- operation "in 1 reventing so far as i poesible the growing babit of spit- ting in the streets and other places of public resort." The objectionable, nature of this practice on grounds of 1 ordinary cleanliness need not be em-, pbasized. It becomes painfully ob- vious tonteyances and who some day or ie all who travel by public 1 other have the misfortune to be to windward of the careless expector- ator of the omnibus top. Nor need we lay stress upon the serious import as a means of spread- ing tuberculous infection that in- diecriminate expeetoration bears in public plates. Our readers are well aware that, whatever may be the re- sult of the eonamission inquiring i into the power of infected food to spread tubercle =tong us, there is i no doubt in the mind of any au- thority upon the subject that the most formidable vehicle af infection of all is the sputum of tuberculous persons. The whole queetion is really one of edutating the public. It is not es- sential to anybody's- comfort or safety that he should expectorate freely into the air or an the ground about him. When, all his fellow men and women realize this they will ta- boo the indiscriminate expectorator. At present his perforreante is regard- ed largely as a matter of course. The working man or woman by his side knows nothing of the possible danger and is not yet "nice" en- ough to deplore the nastiness of the casual expectoration of a neighbor. Our medical readers can more than any other class of men tissist public bodies in the education of the public mind in this matter. Already both in Glasgow and in Liverpool the corporations have in- serted a clause in their by-laws mak- ing spitting on the municipal tram- way cars a finable offence. The me- tropolis in many similar rnatters is wont only to follow instead of to lead the steps taken by other cities.. -It is to be hoped, that it will not be long before the - example of Liver- pool and Glasgow in this matter is widely followed in the public con- veyances of London. 1101iESTLY PICKED FRUIT PRINCIPAL SECTIONS OF THE rzpviT miulacs ACT.

No person shall sell, express or here in his possession for sale, any fruit packed in a, closed Tackage and intended for sale, un- less such pecitage is merited as re- quired by the next preceding sec- tion. Section 6. No person shall sell. or offer, expose or have la bis posses- sion for sale any fruit packed in a Closed package, upon which pack- age is marked any designation which represents such fruit as of No. 1 or XXX, finest, best or metre good qunlity, unless such fruit consist of well -grown specimens of one variety, sound, of nearly uniform size, of good color for tho variety of nor- mal shape, and not less than ninety per cent. free trom scab. worm holes, bruises and other defects, and pro- perly packed. Section 7. No person shall sell, or offer, expose or have in his posses- sion for sale, any fruit packed in any package in which the faced or shown surface gives a false repre- sentation of the contents of such package; and it shall be considered a false representation when more than fifteen per cent. of such fruit s substantially snialler in size than, or inferior in grade to, or different n variety from, the faced or shown surface of such package. Explanations of its application may be taken thus: On packages packed or marked contrary to the provisions of the Act. Inspectors may, after notifying the packer by letter or telegram, place the words "falsely packed" or "falsely mark- ed;" and a fine of $40 inaer be im- posed for illegally removing INSPECTOR'S BRAND. It will be noticed that only "clos- ed packages" need be marked. A closed package is defined to be a box or barrel, the contents of which cannot be seen or inspected when such is closed. Baskets, berry crates, or berry 'boxes even, • with veneer covers, are not considered "closed packages," and therefore do not require marking. Cranberries and all wild fruit are not subject to the provisions of the Act. Merchants are held responsible for the fruit they offer for sale (or fruit in their possession for sale), but the original wrongdoer, if found, will in every case be prosecuted. The penalty for a violation of the law with reference to packing and marking is not less than twenty-five cents and not more than one dollar per package; for removing an in- spector's brand, forty dollars; for obstructing an inspector, $25 to $500. The fines are divided equally between the informant and the crown. Inspectors are given large powers under the Act to enter premises for the purpose of making an examina- tion and to det- in shipments of fruit, for the same purpose. The packer, however, is amply protected by the stipulation that, immedia te notice must be given by' the inspector to the packer when fruit. which at all times is at the risk of the owner, is branded or detained, and the inspec- tor who exceeds his authority is subject to A HEAVY PENALTY. The main points of this Act may m be summed up as follows: (I) The face of all fruit pack- ages must fairly represent the fruit It will pce,,v to send only Selected ApnleS of chOice individual qUalitee l'and packed in boxes rather than In e barrels.

IN ADVANCE OF THE AGE, The increased comfort and safety with which women travelers can journey these days is characteristic of the age. This is largely due, too, to the greater attention paid to the subject by the big transportation companies. This addell to the a.t- tention and courtesy on the part of - employees makes journeying alone for women or childrena trea.t in- stead of a burden, The New York Central shows it- self to be in the front rank in this matter as in so many others where the comfort of its travelers is con- cerned. The Central for instance ad- vertises that its employees "will meet you at the pier on your ar- rival in. port." That this means tnueb to some' people can be seen from the following letter to George II. Daniels from a very prominent business man of Minneapolis. The letter .stutes, "I have just received from my wife a letter ° advising me of the most efficient manner in which your ollice has taken care of her on her trip over yoUr road' and on 'her arrival in New York City. wish to thank you for the great istance you have been to ----, which lut5 greatly facili- tated nor trip and taken all worry and annoyance off her shoulders. It goes without saying• that when she returns to this country she will come west over your road, and I ,shall also take pleasure in traveling over yoer road whee I go East to receive her.' ' The Central makes a point of meeting stca.m.ship passengers, ar- ranging for the transfer of their baggage and seeing that they are introduced to the pursers and stew- ards and in every way /nal< ing traveling a pleasure, not a burden. Tt is characteristic of American lines and especially of the Central that the, comfort and S'a.foty of their pis - ('01s col r's first of rt11.-From the 1; ra Pal Gazet te.
