CLEANLINESS AND HEALTH. JoHN WESLEY 1n one of his sermons asserted that ‘¢ cleanliness is, indeed, next to godliness,”’ and the declaration has been accepted, theoretically but not practically, by the world as true. Dr. Lyon Playfair, the great English writer upon the laws of hygiene, has recently delivered two lectures at the Lowell Institute in Boston, and he summed up the lesson of hygienic laws to mean, ‘“ Wash and be clean.” Forty years agl(%) Dr. Playfair was appointed by the British Government to investigate the causes of death in the great cities and towns of England, and out of this commission has grown the attention since given to the subject in all countries. As a veteran sanitary reformer, he discussed the question’'most ably and entertainingly, and we reduce into a small space the more important statements made by him: Public health is the health of communities as distinet from the health of individuals, but they are intimately connected. The health of the individual depends upon existing and upon antecedent things; upon the sanitary conditions to which his ancestors were exposed, and also upon the sanitary conditicns which prevailed during his bringing-up, and further upon the physical and moral conditions of his life. As there is no individual who can be said to have all his organs in perfect function, so there is no community which can be said to be in a perfect sanitary state. The history of man must be considered as if he were one man, constantly living and constantly dying; and, in no less degree, the history of a community must be considered as that of a single man, and physiologically the case is exactly the same.

In explanation of this, he said that the nutrition of an individual depends upon the constant death and birth of the particles of which he is composed. “‘I canunot raise my hand with‘out the muscles of my hand dying in the act of vital manifestation, and a new particle is built into the place of that which died.” The tradition—an old woman’s tradition—was, that the body of a man changes every seven years. This he declared to be nonsense. The soft parts of the body of a man change every six weeks, and the change is incessant. A community must be considered as a single man; the particles of the community are the individuals, and the whole community is theone man. The death of individuals in a community is just exactly like the death of particles in a single man; the birth of individuals in communities is the same as the birth of new particles in a man. Excessive mortality in a community is like excessive waste of the particles in an individual, the restorative function not being in good order. It is to the interest of tﬁe community to take care of the health of each individual, and it is the duty of each individual to take care of the health of his neighbor, because upon his neighbor’s health necessarily gepends his own. ; ~ The distinction between disinfeetion and deodorization was pointed out. The latter is merely overcoming one smell with another; the former was a thorough - cleansing. The Greeks and Romans paid great attention to hy%‘ilenic laws, but these perished with their literature in the Dark A%es._, The early Christians thought the baths and cleanliness of the Pagans were part of their reli%ion, and made war on them. Public and private baths were destroyed, and Michelet declares that for a thousand years no man or woman in Europe took a bath. Of the effect of this abandoi'xément of sanitary care the lecturer said: e : ' ~“But think of bhirty-thgﬁa;ggﬁne‘me tions like Oppian, who never washed at all, and then you ean easily understand what was the cause of the terrible epidemics which

came in the Middle Ages. I mean such epidemics as came after the wars of the white and red roses—the black death, the sweating sickness, and all the plagues which appeared at that time, and which were followed by mental epidemics still more terrible. After the black death and sweating sickness had struck down one-fourth of all the people of Europe, then came those terrible mental epidemics which are so remarkable—the dancing mania, the mewing mania, and the biting mania—which were almost as terrible us the other plagues. And even when the sun of civilization was rising and beginning to throw some light upon the Dark 1 Ages, what an inheritance of filth-pro-ducing disease there was! You have all, no doubt, read Defoe’s account of the plague in London, but the plagues in other countries were ust as b:% as the plague in England. For instance, Montaigne tells us, and glives some siatistical facts, of the terrible plague from which he fled out of Bordeaux. When he left Bordeaux there were 40,000 inhabitants, and 18,000 of these perished by the plague. The harvest was not reaped, the grapes weére ungathered, and men’s minus were occupied, not with the thought of how they could preserve life, but with the thought of how they could protect their dgead bodies from the wid beasts after death. He tells one touching story of one of his own workmen, whose last act of life was drawing the earth over his expiring body.” _ :

The habitations of those ages were the palaces of the few, the hovels of the many. Dr. Playfair argued that the beginning and end of all public hygiene is cleanliness; and water, air and cleanliness were the chief articles in his pharmacopeeia. The necessity of pure air and pure water, and of that cleanliness which is essential to general purity of air, was admirably pointed out. He ad‘vised the burial of the dead in slight coffins, so as to admit of the speedy absorption of the elements of the body by the earth, as the best mode of burial in a sanitary sense. The following paragraphs from the lecture are worthy of general consideration: ““ Now, the beginning and the end of all public hygiene is cleanliness. But it is not cleanliness of individuals only; it is purity of the peasant, purity of the palace, purity of the air, purity of the water, purity of all that surrounds the family. Cleanliness, in its largest'sense, is"the beginning and the end of hygiene. So you see that after all we are brgught back to the simple faith of the Jews that demons, evil spirits, call them what you will—typhoid fever, scarlet fever, diphtheria—are connected with foul places, and this simplicity of faith is that which we possess now. Now, if I was to say to you that really the whole of hygiene can be brought into the simple words, taken in their lar%est sense, ¢ wash and be clean,’ you would naturally revolt.

¢« Foul water has been a very prolific source of disease. There has been abundant experience lately upon it. I will only give one instance, where a lar,c{;le number of people were afflicted with typhoid fever, and amongst them some relatives of mine. It chiefly came amongst children. It was noticed that all the houses which had typhoid fever got a superior kind of milk which was called nursery milk, which game to them in sealeg7 cans from a ﬁrm far away, one hundred miles from London. On going to that farm it was found that the farmer was down with typhoid fever, There was an imperfection in the drain, and a part of the drainage had found its way into the wellin which the milk cans were washed. - As soon as this was remedied the typhoid fever stopped, but it attacked many hundreds of people. .

““The same way with regard to our cesspools. Ibstead of allowing the material to decompose in the shortest way, we dig holes close to our doors, and we allow a body of foul matter to go into these cesspools, and we forget the experience of the ancients, that every foul place has its demon, and the demon comes out in typhoid fever to ravish and destroy. We throw this foul matter into our beautiful rivers, and we pollute them. Every man thinks he has a right to the river, and, like a surly wolf, he growls at the lamb who objectsto drinking his abominations. And so we goon fouling’and fouling these rivers till they become nothing but great, huge ditches. “I was going to say a good deal about dwel%ingjlouses, but I see that I cannot do it, that my time will not allow me. But I would simply say that the importance of draining the soil upon which houses are built, and upon which towns are built, is of the greatest moment. Now, to give you one instance only. Consumption is probably a chronic zymosis—that is, it is probably a fever of a chronic sort. Now, it has been found that if you thoroughly drain and aerate the streets and houses of a town in which consumption is prevalent, that you very largely diminish consumption. I will give you some instances of experiencein England. There were several towns started to drain about the same time. In Salisbury, after it was drained and its soil rendered dry so as to ventilate it, the cases of consumption diminished by forty per cent.; in Ely, forty-seven per cent.; in Rugby, forty-three per cent.; in Bunbury, forty per cent. So that, you see, for the prevention of this dread malady to which you are subject as well as we in England, hygienic arrangements are of great importance, and of the first gﬁ'eat importance is the ventilation of the house itself. In the ventilation of a house we never get sufficient air. We have learned the old ecatch, *‘lf cold wind strike you through a hole, go make your will and mind your sou%,’ and so we .shut up all the crevices and entrances, and do not get nearly enough air for the purposes or which it is required, It is not the quantity you breathe—that is very small—it is the quantity you foul by breathing. If you put a one-thou-sandth part of carbonic acid into air it is unfit for respiration. A man may live in it, but it is unhealthy. 'Wz find in our schools, for instance, that not oneHfifth of the necessary amount of pure air is s;;gpli_ed.”* VIR e ~ In course of time it is probable that the inhabitants of large cities and small towns, of villages and even of shﬁllewms, ~will become impressed with the knowledge that an abundance

of pure air, and of pure water, and of %eneral cleanliness of all premises inabited by human beinfs, are absolutely essential to good health; and that the opposite of these—foul air, impure water, and foul-smelling and otherwise uncleanly gremises—— are destructive to health and to life; that the one condition is preventive of »e;l)lidemic and infectious diseases, and the other is a producer of such. diseases; and then there will be less indifference to the sanitary laws than is generally the case at present.—Chicago Tribune.

* A Young Indian’s Love. = THAT the course of true love never did run smooth was again exemplified here to-day in the trials of Richard Black, a young Indian charged with making a false affidavit in order to procure a marriage license, and also abducting Frances Margaret Taylor, a young woman whom he made his wife. The facts brought out in evidence are these: :

Richard Black belongs to the band of Chippewa Indians settled at the villa?e of Alderville, in the township of Alnwick, in the County of Northumberland. Black has fifty acres of good land of his own on the reservatjon. He is about twenty-one years of ge, with intelligent features, and has received a very fair education, as the letter below indicates. He has been working in the township as a farm hand and as a brick-yard laborer. Everybody speaks well of him. The Rev. Mr. Beatty, the Presbyterian minister who performed the marriage ceremony in question, says of the young man in the evidence: ¢‘He appeared to me to be more intelligent, more straightforward—in fact, he made a better appearance than half of those who do come before me.” . Black has been paying attention to’ Frances Margaret Taylor, the daughter of a farmer in the same township, who worked what is called the gVlission Farm, and also a farm of his own not far oft. She was born November 13, 1863, consequently she is now within a month of sixteen years of age. She is said to be good looking, of prepossessing address, and of well-developed proportions, which led the clergyman to believe her to be eighteen years of age. The éhar%e against the prisoner was that he willfully committed perjury in making an affidavit that the girl was ei}glhteen years of age, and that he had her father’s consent for the marriage. The license issuer proved the affidavit. The parents denied that ‘they had ever given consent, and the clergyman testified to marrying ‘the couple on September 25, last. The father said he had only once heard of ‘their keeping cempany, and he then forbade it. The parents knew nothing further till the daughter was misse “about three weeks ago, and the window of her bed-room t%und open. ' The prisoner was found guilty on the secl ond count. The following letter came out on the trial: ;

ALDERVILLE, September 17, 1879. DrAREST FRANK: Having gone to Cobourg yesterday, I regret to say I failed to procure a license. I got everything ready' but the license. The reason was because the licedse issuer said that your parents must know of our starting before he could issue a license, or otherwise I must swear an oath that we are both twenty-one years of age. But I was talking to some men that know something about the law. They said that it was not absolutely necessary that the girl’s parents should know of the marriage, for I did not tell who the girl was. However, I am going to try another Flace for the license. After I failed to geta icense in Cobourg yesterday, I says to the marria-gelicense issuer * Well, if I cannot get what I demand of you,” I says *I can trust: the girl’s honor that she will wait patiently till we are of age.”” ‘“Well,” says he, ‘‘if she waits till she is twenty-one years of age, I can go and take you in spite of your parents.” As for me, I would willingly wait if we cannot do otherwise. Think of, my darling, five years before you are of age! Butif you really love me, you will willingly wait. As for me, I love you above any person in this world. Andnow, to change the subject, I am going to Hastings and Campbellford to-day, so whenl come back I can tell you what we cah do, and in the meantime I hope your best wishes accompany me, my dear loving Frank. This is all this time from your dear and affectionate, R. W. BLACK. Good-by till I see you again. I hope it will not be long. " The prisoner was immediately afterward placed on trial on the second charge, that of abducting a girl under sixteen years of age. The witnesses were the same as in the previous case, and the evidence much to the same effect. 'The mother testified to her daughter going to bed on the night of the 23d of September, but on the 24th she was missing; that on the 25th she found her in the prisoner’s company, but after the marriage ceremony had been performed. It also came out that Black had been seen with a horse and buggy the night of the abduction, and had told another Indian that he was going to run away with the girl. The ather of the young woman, when asked why he objected to the match, said it was because he was an Indian, and he didn’t want any Indian blood in his family, for he had seen enough of them. In this trial the jury had not agreed upon a verdict at nine o’clock.—Cobourg (Can.) Cor. Toronto Globe. .

The Stitch in Time. 'THE old saying that a stitch in time saves nine holds good not only in matters of the needle, but in all the concerns of life. It is the stitch in time, the retrenchment in season, that staves off the mortgaﬁe on the family estate, that prevents Mr. Spendthrift from being obliged to ask a compromise of his creditors, that emables one to place a trifle in the bank against a rainy day. The seasonable attention stops the leak in the roof that would sooner or later make the house untenantable, and treble the expense, adjusts the toppling gate that would presently drop off its‘ inges, repairs the broken fence that would let the cows into the corn field, destroys the ca,te?illars’ eggs which would hatch by-and-by, and ravage the fruit erop, pots the bulbs before the frost kills them, waters the ornamental shrubs before the drought withers them, settles bills before interest swells them, and taxes before they eat up the roperty, mends the chimney before it gurns down the house, and the highway before there are damages to pay, and puts in the coal before it rises in lpro-. gqrtion to the falling of the quicksilver. ome of us, to be sure, find it beyond our power to take the stiteh in time that shall save us cost and trouble; wﬂ are delayed about ,‘re];sirlng‘*the roof, for want of material, till the &dm:'gnpaq | cracks the plaster, and peels off the

wall-paper, and gives us:bronchitis; we would take such pleasure in settling our bills before the interest doubles them as . only he who owes them knows; we realize the necessity of a stitch in time in our affairs, but have no thread and needle, so to speak; or we fancy that we will attend to them to-morrow, or next week, or after we have gotten? through with the work in hand, and then t%xey are perhaps beyond mending. Sometimes it is our friendships that show a break, when a word spoken in season, how good itis! What tearsand regrets it saves us! An adjustment of differences at the right moment would have rescued many from quarrels that have grown into lawsuits, that have separated lovers, and brought gray hairs in sorrow to the grave. _Neg%-fact in little matters of health has proved a fertile source of invalidism; the slight cold disregarded avenges itself by distorting the vietim. with rheumatic pains; the eyesight just a trifle imperfect fails alto‘gether one day from lack of care; and ‘sometimes even our virtues get shabby, require retouching, demand the stitch in time that shall keep them from becoming threadbare, from being patched beyon§ recognition at a lafer period.— Harper's Bazar. -

Horriblg Burnings in Russia, THE Russian Courier reports a shocking disaster from Volodarock, in the Government of Kieff. A Jewish boy had been ordered at eight o’clock in the evening of the Bth ult. to fetch some kerosene from a barrel that stood in an outhouse. - The barrel contained nearly twenty vedro of this dangerous oil. After filling his oil-can, the boy attempted to turn the tap of the barrel by the help of a candlestick, in which there was a lighted candle. In doing so, however, the light; fell from the candlestick into the oil-can, instantly kindling the kerosene. The boy fled in terror, overturning the can in his flight. The flames rapidly spread, and the people in the house, followed by neighbors, ran up to the scene of the conflagration. . Some of the crowd were attempting to get the barrel of kerosene into the open air, when an explosion occurred, covering everybody who was near with the burning oil. These unfortunate persons rushed from the outhouse among the crowd which had collected outside, and thus set many- of their clothes on fire. Altog gether there were thirty-seven persons attacked ‘by the flames, of whom, at the date of this report, eighteen had already died, while there was little hope for many of the others. Another terrible calamity from fire took place on the 17th ult. at Laisheff, in the Kasan Government. The son of a peasant was celebrating his wedding, and, according to the custom, at mnight, after the conclusion of the festivities, the newly-wedded pair were conducted to their chamber and locked in by the ‘best man. The latter soon afterward retired to rest with the remainder.of the company, who were all ‘‘strongly ‘alcoholized.” At three o'clock ‘in the morning fire broke out in the house, ‘and the intoxicated inmates were all burned to death, with the exception of ‘the father of ‘the bridegroom. It was found that the newly-married couple had managed to open the door of their chamber, %ut were unable to penetrate through the sea ot fire which surrounded them. On the extinction of the fire, their corpses were found ncar eaeh other partially burned to asaes. ’

A Horse’s Revenge. THE Society for the Protection of Animals is' not remarkable for its activity in this country. The police appear to think it no business of theirs when carters or coachmen brutally maltreat their horses in the streets, or when boys amuse themselves by torvturing dogs and cats, or whatever other creatures have the ill luck to fall into their hands. The horses 'would appear to be aware of the supineness of their supposed protectors, for they have taken the matter inte their own hands, or rather into their own teeth and feet. A carter by dint of hard ﬁo%‘ging at his three horses, persuaded them to drag sixteen tons of coal to the foot of the steep hill which leads to the Boulevard Bessieres; but his powers of stimulation utterly failed to induce them to proceed ‘any further—a thick steam rose up from their panting sides and nostrils. ¢ Budge!” said the fiend; and straightway the carter began to lash and swear. A crowd gathered around the fereeious beast, who abandoned the lash and began to bang his stick into their heads and kick them with hob-nailed boots in the sides: The leader of the team took upoh himself to protest against this extreme measure. He turned round, seized the carter’s arm with his teeth, tossed him to the ground and tmm[;lled him with his' hoofs; then wseized him again with his teeth and tossed him about. The crowd and the police, which had looked approvingly on while he tortured the horses, interfered for the protection of the human monster, who was with great difficulty torn bleeding and mangled from the just equine resentment. 'He is justly punished: but surely some penalty should be inflicted on ﬁhe ‘railway company which sent out this heavy load of coal to -be drawn up-hill by three horses, when twice the number would have barely sufficed for the work. The carter ~ has- paid his penalty; Ilet theirs now be inflicted. Wiill{lahould not the police be armed with full power to dispatch to the jfourriere any vehicle lowdeg beyond the power of the horses harnessed to it?—Parts Cor. » Telegraph. S :
