It is a fever or blood poisoning, due to a germ in the air. ami that germ either originated, or found food for its growth in the decaying vegetable matter, the lcsult of our open winter. De caying vegetatiou is a very dangerous thing. Last spring nearly all the mem bers of a certain family in this town were down with typhoid fever, and the well water was supposed to lie the cause of it, hut we have since learned that the family had cabbage stored in their cellar the pre ceding winter. Some years ago a family in one of the towns of Butler county, were all taken down with dysentery, in mid winter. The doctors of the town thought that remarkable and instituted a search, and found decaying cabbage iu the cellar, and also that the family was throwing its slops—its dish and wash water —where it would drain into the well. The family were making a suro thing of it, they were poisoning both their air and water. —An uufortunate victim of the grip, whose best girl went oil' with another fel lows bewails his loss in follows: Alas, 1 can no longer sip The honey from her rose-bud lip, For while I wrestled with the grippe She ran away—gave mo the slip- Anil with another man (lid skip.

Then the Council met and gave him the job of making plans, peciti cations and estimates of the cost of a system of sewerage for tin! town, his fee to be $250, and $lO a day while working on the plans—about SSOO iu all. Mr. Heydrick and his son agreed to mark the elevations on a plot of the borough for sls a day, and said it would take them from ten to fifteen days, and were given that job. Air.
