Find a House's Health Record Be-
fore You Move In.
:.i
(Phfadolphia Record.)
Some timely suggestions or hints to
persons about to move into new homes
are given in the weekly bulletin issued
by Dr. Neff, liestd of the Department of
Health and Charities. Every one, he
points out, should exercise the greatest
care, in changing his domicile, in safe-
guarding against the contraction of dis-
eases from which former residents of
the houees may have suffered. In order
to be certain of the cleanliness of the
houses the Director suggests that infor-
mation as to former tenants be sought
from his department, and 'that it would
be well to avoid a building recently oc-
cupied by a patient suffering from some
contagious malady. In his warning the
Director says:
No sane person would move into a
house where there is a serious nuisance
plainly visible to the eye, or where there
are foul odors from imperfect or impro-
per drainage, without having the owner
correct 'the trouble; yet a much graver
danger, that cannot be detected by the
senses, may exist in germs of contagious
diseases.
If the room or house has previously
been occupiedby a person suffering from
contagious diseases thorough disinfection
should be made before ocupaney. Tele-
phone or write to the Bureau of Health,
City Hall, where complete records are
kept of all contagious diseases reported
to the Bureau, and the desired informa-
tion will be furnished. There will be a
few houses where contagious diseases
have occurred of which there is no re -
card, owing to failure of physicians to
report them, although required to do so
by act of Assembly. The responsibility
for loss of life from their neglect must
be assumed by them. C'pon application
such dwellings or rooms will be fumigat-
ed by the disinfectors of the Department.
The law at present compels plumbers
to submit plans for alterations and new
buildings to the Drainage Division of the
Bureau of Health, and these plans must
be duly approved before any work is
done. A similar law should be passed
governing the rental and sale of houses,
compelling the insertion in the lease or
deed of a clause, protecting the purchaser
or Iessee front these evils. Renters
should demand from real estate agents
Ina owners a certificate to the effect
that the house has.been examined by the
'health officials and that it is in good
,sanitary condition and free from conta-
gion.
Tuberculosis germs under favorable
.conditions, such as the absence of Iight,
live for a. long time after the room has
ceased to be occupied by a person suf-
THE COME AND SEE SIGN
This sign is permanently attached
to the front, of the main. building of
the Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine
Company, Lynn, Mass.
What Does This Sign. Dlean ?
It means that public iinDssppection of
the Laboratory and methods of doing
business is honestly desired. It means
that there is nothing about the bus-
iness which is not "open and above-
board."
It means that a permanent invita-
tion is extended to anyone to come
and verify any and ,m.1 statements
made in the advertisements of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Is it a purely vegetable compound
made from roots and herbs — with-
out drugs ?
Come and, See.
Do the women of America continu-
ally use as much of it as we are told.
Come and See.
Was there ever such a person as
Lydia E. Prnk'ham, and is there any
Mrs. Pinkham now to whom sick
woman are asked to wl.ite ?
Come and See.
Is the vast private correspondence
with sick women conducted by
women only and are the letters kept
strictly con�.dential ?
Come and See.
Have they really got letters from
over one million, one bauldred
thousand women correspondents?
Come and. See.
Have they proof that Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has
cured. thousands of these women ?
Come and See.
This advertisement is only for
doubters. The great army of women
who know from their own personal
experience that no medicine in the
world equals Lydia E. Pinkham's
Ve etable Compound for female iris
will still go on using and being ben-
efited by it; but the poor doubting,
suffering woman must, for her own
sake,be taught conlid.ence for she also
might just PA well regain'her hes,lth.
Mrs. M. Barrett,
boa Morvan St.,
Montreal, says:
" A horrid
rash came out all over my baby's Lace and
spread until it had totally covered his scalp.
It was irritating and painful, and caused
the little one hours of suffering. We tried
soaps and powders and salves, but he got
no better. He refused his food, got quite
thin and worn, and was reduced to a very
serious condition. 41 was advised to try
Zam-Buk, and did so. It was wonderful
how it seemed to cool and ease the child's
burning, painful skin. Zam-Buk from the
very commencement seemed to go right to
the spot, and the pimples and sores and the
irritation grew less and less. Within a
few weeks my baby's skin was healed
completely. He has now not a trace of
rash, or eruption, or eczema, or burning
sore. Not only so, but curer of the tor-
menting skin trouble, he has improved in
general health."
Zam.Buk Is sold at all stores and medicine ven-
dors, 5oc, a box, or post free from Zam•Bult Co.,
roronto, for price, 6boxes for $2.5o. A certain cure
for all skin d,seases, cuts, burns, etc., and for piles.
fering with consumption. A great many
eases of consumption are contracted by
healthy people moving into apartments
that had previously been occupied by a
person suffering with the disease. .As an
illustration, in February, 1907, 'the chair-
man of the committee of a certain home
for incurables where consumption is
treated wrote to the Department that
during the preceding few years about 25
applications from consumptives for ad-
mission to the home were received from
certain houses located on Monroe street,
from Second to Fifth --a larger number
than had been received during that per-
iod from any other street in the city.
A list of these houses was obtained, and
all were thoroughly disinfected. Since
that time there has not been a single ap-
plication filed from any of these houses.
QUININE IN ITALY.
State Sells It and Uses the Profit to
Fight Malaria.
The sale of quinine in Italy is carried
on in a peculiar fashion. The Govern-
ment sells the drug to the peasants in
malarious districts and then uses the pro-
fit to fight malaria.
The first aim is to protect the pea,.
sants from mosquitoes. But it is ahnost
impossible to get them to take care of
the wire screens which are given them
for their hcuses.
As for their \veering veils and gloves
when they go abroad, as they are urged
by the authorities to do, anybody who
knows the Italian peasants can guess
how many of them will do it.
The Government has therefore to de-
pend chiefly on draining and filling up
the pools where mosquitoes breed and
on what is called bonificaanento, or the
improvement of the land in various
ways. Last year the Government sold
to the peasants about $300,000 worth of
quinine, with a net profit of about
$75,000.
How One Farmer Does It.
A farmer wrote as follows to his
home newspaper: "When I ' a ready
to sell my stuff I insert alittle adver-
tisement in the local paper telling the
people what I have to sell, and if live
stock, how many head of each and
when they will be ready to ship. The
result has been that the buyers are
right after me, either personally or by
mail, and naturally I always get the
highest price. If 1 want to buy a cow,
a steer, a horse, or a dozen of each, I
insert a little ad. that costs me maybe
25 or 30 cents, and instead of travellnig
over the country inquiring of my neigh.
bors who have this or that for sale, the
newspaper does it for me at less expense,
and those who have what I want lean -
age to let me know in some way. 1
save the time and expense of travelling
aimlessly about and get a better selec-
tion to choose from."—NewaTimes, Ma-
ma, Ill.
THE VALLM OF A SMILE.
What It Did for a Scotchman in Cal.
gutta During Plague.
On the door leading into the private
office of the treasurer of one of the
Hartford banking institutions may be
seen by all earners seplain white card,
on which are these two words; "Keep
Smiling." •
Aek the treasurer the significance of:
the placard, and he will say simply;
"Just keep smiling. That makes every-
thing easy. That's what snake are for.
A good, unfeigned, sincere smile is a
veritable battering-ram to knock hard
things out of , the way. Sometimes 1
smile out loud, all to myself, when 1
run against anything hard; and the in-
vitation is out to whoever enters my
door.' I take it that people' will smile
as they read the card, and 1 want them
to continue the act while in here!"
He tells of a visitor who came to see
him last winter, a Sooteluuan, who had
nerved in Iudit in the army. "My dear
sir," said the visitor, "I am greeting
that legend heartily.' Many years ago,
when the plague was raising 1 was in
Calcutta, and sick. The hospitals were
full, an with other patients 1 was ly-
ing in a shed, a very sick man. On
each side of mea poor chap had died,
when a man came around with one of
the doctors to measure the bodies. As
they finished the second fellow's mea-
surement they looked at me, and the
man said: 'Three of 'em, heigh7" and
whipped out his tape measure at my
side. In spate of all effort, I could only
stare. To save my life I couldn't speak
or move. All I. could do was to smile,
and I just smiled. Instead of the mea-
suring line I was given better attention,
and recovered. The smile did it! That's
right! 'Keep smiling!' "—Hertford

A Misunderstanding.
A Manila mother-in-law had stayed
'so often with her daughter as to cause
a quarrel with the husband, and one day,
when she again came to stay, she found
her daughter in -bears on the doorstep.
"I suppose George has left you," she
sniffed.
"Yes." (Sob.)
"Then there's a woman in the Daae?"
she asked, her eyes lighting up expect-
antly.
"Yes." (Sob.)
'Who is it?" she demanded.
"You." (Sob.)

asked to explain how this apparently
impossible feat had been accomplished.
"Did he have the usual childish diseases
—measles, homing cough and so on?"
the father was asked.
"0, yes."
"How, then, could he have always been
at school?"
"The fact is," explained the father, "he
always had 'em during the holidays."—

Has a Blind Beggar Woman to Adver-

Enterprise takes various forms, even in
Warsaw. A young oculist, finding that
patients were few and far between, hit
upon an original means of advertising.
He engaged a blind woman who sits
and begs by the Church of the Holy
Cross to hold a Iight board whereon are
written his name, address, professional
qualifications and consultation hours.
As the church is in the busiest thor-
oughfare of the town the notice attracts
a good deal of attention. The beggar
herself says she is quite satisfied with
the results, as many people notice her
who would otherwise pass by, and as the
doctor has added his assurance that she
is hopelessly blind, benevolent old ladies

Sagacity of Rats.
The average rat possesses extraordin-
ary sagacity. On a sailing ship bound
for Calcutta from Capetown some years
ago it was decided to try to reduce the
number of rate which had boarded the
vessel at 'the latter port. The end of
an ordinary cask was planed perfectly
smooth, coated with grease, end a meat
bait tacked in the centre. The end
was fixed on with two nails, balanced
so that should anything touch it off the
ventre it would go down. The eask was
partly filled with water and buried in
the balast to within a few inches of
the top. The first night more than two
hundred rats were caught, the second
night few, and the third night none were
caught. It was found by the remarks of
rats' feet in the grease and the mtasing
bait that they had discovered the exact
centre and took the bait as they Iiked.
Half an ineh on either side of the centre
meant death.—Kansas City Star.

After a theatrical performance in a

over the establishment by the director.
They saw a lunatic disconsolately sit-
ting alone on a bench. "That," said the
director. "is an unhappy man who went
mad for love of a woman who jilted him
and married another." "He looks quiet
enough," an actress observed. The par-
ty moved on, and came to the dangerous
patients. In an iron -barred cage a luna-
tic, raving . mad, was behaving like a
wild beast. "That," said the director,
"is the man she married."—London Tele-

You get into your morning second-
class compartment on the S. E. & C. Rail-
way to come up to the office. You meet
in the main the same nine other 'nen
every day. You do this for months, nay,
years; but you never speak. If you ven-
ture to make the bad, bold, rash experi-
ment, you are frozen to death with a,
look as if to say, "What the deuce do
you mean by speaking to me?"—Grocer's

Sagacity of Rats.
The average rat possesses extraordin-
ary sagacity. On a sailing ship bound
for Calcutta from Capetown some years
ago it was decided to try to reduce the
number of rate which had boarded the
vessel at 'the latter port. The end of
an ordinary cask was planed perfectly
smooth, coated with grease, end a meat
bait tacked in the centre. The end
was fixed on with two nails, balanced
so that should anything touch it off the
ventre it would go down. The eask was
partly filled with water and buried in
the balast to within a few inches of
the top. The first night more than two
hundred rats were caught, the second
night few, and the third night none were
caught. It was found by the remarks of
rats' feet in the grease and the mtasing
bait that they had discovered the exact
centre and took the bait as they Iiked.
Half an ineh on either side of the centre
meant death.—Kansas City Star.

Degrees of Madness.
After a theatrical performance in a
madhouse a party of actors 'were shown
over the establishment by the director.
They saw a lunatic disconsolately sit-
ting alone on a bench. "That," said the
director. "is an unhappy man who went
mad for love of a woman who jilted him
and married another." "He looks quiet
enough," an actress observed. The par-
ty moved on, and came to the dangerous
patients. In an iron -barred cage a luna-
tic, raving . mad, was behaving like a
wild beast. "That," said the director,
"is the man she married."—London Tele-

A Winning Bet.
A witty individual one morning wager-
ed that he would ask the same question
of fifty different persons and receive
the same answer from each. The wit
went to first one and then to another,
until he had reached *number fifty. And
this is how he won the bet. He whispered'
half audibly to each:
"I say, have you heard that Smith has
failed?"
"What Smith?" queried the whole
fifty, one after another; and it was de-
cided that the bet had beenfairly won.
