BAD INFLUENCE OF DIRT.
Undoubtedly Exercises a Deleterious
Moral Ctfect.
Dirt Is contagious. If anybod
doubts It let hini observe tho street'
Uttered with all sorts of rubbish, the
offer a positive Invitation to over
body to toss or sweep his surplus ma
tcr Into them. If tho streets wei
kept In a proper state of cleanllnes
no decent person at least would thin
of throwing anything upon the roaf
way or In the gutters. There Is alp
a moral effect. Cleanly surrounding
teget clean habits. Children going i
and from school aro unconsciously 1:
Ouenced by what they see, and dirt
streets being a standing example
intldlness In those to whom thoy m
urally look for leading, they grow 1
different and careless. Thus the tolc
atlon of dirt on tho streets bcconn
not only a menace to health, but v.
influence for evil. Considerations
this sort may have no placo in tin
average alderman's mind, which seen
to take Its Inspirations from medlew
times when the public thoroughfa:
were the common sewers. Chlcat.

left hideous scars. But at tho presen
day the manner In which arteries ai
ligatured, tendons spliced, Intestine
sutured and wounds closed is the
foundation of success, no skilled use
of the scalpel taking its place.

woo." Others say that this Is not so,
for one may smllo and yet bo a villain,
nd tho smllo Is what makes the fa
clal characteristic.
