It is astonishing the number of in telligent people who regard a cold or cough as a trivial matter, something unnecessary to pay attention to. How many times have you heard the ex pression, "O nothing the matter, only a slight cnld."

Editor Sentinel: I presume that it is not generally known that there are persons who visit our cemetery who are in the habit of mutilating the graves by plucking tbo flowers and pulling up the plants so kindly planted by the friends of loved ones gone. Last Sabbath I visited our cemetery and was surprised at tho amount of work done and pains taken to beautify the graves, by planting upon them beautiful flowers and evergreens, many of which were of rare selections. I thought how carefully do they "See that their graves are kept green." Prominent among the graves so care fully attended are those of our once worthy citizen Jacob Ish and wife. The flowers planted upon their graves were rare and tastefully arranged. The vases were filled with flowers whose fragrance filled the air above and around the spot made sacred by those calmly resting beneath. On the following day business required mo to again visit our cemetery and oh what a change. The vases wero empty, many of the shrubs and evergreens were pulled up and strewed around the grave. The beautiful laurel treo at the foot of the graves wus peeled and many of the branches cut off. I went to other parts of tho cemetery and found tho same evidence of desecration. Thy seem not satisfied with plucking the flowers but they pull them up by the roots. Now I ask is there no way to stop this work of ruin and dese cration. A Citizen.
