DisQBAOKFtJii PaooBBoiNas. It has
been brought to the notioe of the city
authorities that the boys of our town,
or, at leaM, a considerable portion of
them, indulge in the most obaoene and
profane language possible right in tbe
presence of little girls and others.
Some of the lads are well up in years
and know better. It is a faot that
both boys and girls often, and in the
beariug of older persons, use language
that would put tbe deyil to shams.
Our principal, Prof. Wier, is endeavor
ing to stop this, and will do it so tar as
his authority goes, but that is only six
hours of the day. Parents should take
this matter in band, for it is beoomiog
absolutely disgraoetul. With their
assistance together with what will oome
from the town authorities and our
school, a reformation ought to be ac
complished. Large boys, and even
some of tbe opposite Bex of oo isiderable
years down, ought to have some respeot
for themselves, if not for otbeis. It ought
not be necessary to rule this olass of
young people like little children. And
we will say, too, that many children get
out of evenings on the excuse that they
go to tbe reading ro.im. Most of them
fail to reaob there. Better draw the
reins a little tighter now and save
trouble in after years.
Town Legislation A new liquor
oruinance is being considered at tbe
bands of the oounoil. It will probably
provide for the issuing of licenses
quarterly for 8100) payable in advance.
This will do away with tba bund nui
sance. Tbe ordinance making the
owner of a bouse whiob is used for
immoral purposes as liable as tbe in
mates has been passed. Tbe one punish
ing minors for frequenting saloons will
become a law shortly. Heretofore the
saloon-keepers were cinched while the
minor went "Scjtt" tree; the new ordi
nance holds both liable. The ordinanoe
relating to tbe use of profane and ob
scene lauguage on tlu streets has been
legalized aud will be rigidly enforced.

the following thanksgiving proclamation:
"While t e American people should
every day remember witb praise and
thanksgiving tbe divine goodness and

theirbeginniug as a nation, it is fitted
that one day in eaoh year should be es
pecially devoted to a contemplation

ful acknowledgement of hia loving
kindness ; therefore, I, Grover Cleve
land, president of the United States, do
hereby dtsiguate and set apart Thursday
tbe 30th day of the present month cf No
vember, as a day of thanksgiving and
praise, to be kept and observed by all
people in our land. On that day let us
forego our ordinary work and employ
ments and assemble in oar usual lxoe
of worship, where we may rtcalfnll that
God has done for us, and where, from
grat ful hearts onr united tribute of
praise and song may reach the throne of
grace. Let tbe union of kindred and
the aocial meeting of friends lend cheer
and enjoy ment to duty, and let generous
gifts of charity for the relief of the poor
and needy prove the sincerity of our
thanksgiving."

Bacteria are not insects or "bugs,"
lays the Popular Science News, but
plants. They have, however, the power
of spontaneous motion. Like other
living things they take in matter and
potential energy and give off matter
and manifest energy.
In common with all vegetables not
possessing chlorophyll they require
organic food for the maintenance of
life, but they can subsist upon food that
contains no proteid, being able to take
nitrogen and sulphur from inorganic
sources and carbon from orgnnic
sources, and with water they build up
proteid material. They share resplra-

tion in common vitli an living tmngs,
taking in oxygon and giving oft carbon

not require free oxygen, being able to
unlock it from tho substances in which
they exist; and certain chemical pro
cesses attributable to them evidently
depend upon this power of unlocking
oxygen from stable compounds, llac
teria ere very widely distributed, being
present in the atmosphere in vast num
bers, and also existing in earth and
water. Tbey cover the surface of our
bodies and line our entire alimentary
canals; fortunately, however, they are
chiefly of tho benign variety, which
will not thrive in living tissues hence
called non-pathogenic.
These micro-organisms are among the
smallest objects which the microscope
reveals. A very common form of bac
teria is that known as the bacterium
fermo, which is an elongated, rod-like
cell about 1-25,000 of an inch in breadth
and less than twice its breadth in
length. It is non-pathogenic, easily
killed by antiseptics, and is always
found in putrefying- or septic fluids;
hence it Is sometimes called the carrion
or septic fungus.
Cold (32 degrees Fahrenheit) suspends
the animation of oacteria, but does not
kill them; ninny withstand a much
lower temperature. 1 toiling water
kills many bacteria, but those that are
in the condition of spores can with
stand a much higher temperature or
can withstand the temperature of 212
degrees Fahrenheit for a much longer
time than can the mature bacterium.
In general terms extremes of heat have
a more destructive action to bacteria
than extremes of cold. Heat without
moisture does not necessarily destroy
the lives of all ba"cteria, but renders
tome simply inactive.

to ask them. So-wbat does she do but
write, in a neat sftid ladylike hand, s
letter to the postmaster, mid ask If he
won't take a stroll down to where the
other half is supposed lo be, and see
how und whore he spends bis evenings.
