She stepped over the mouldering threshold, pushed open the heavy door, whose rusty hinges grated harsh thunder, glared around in the silent darkness, and with a stifled groan sank to the floor.

leaulluess Is Next to Godliness, This motto is as old as civilization, yet in this city a person may run through the whole town, through all the fine barber shops, and not find the simple accommodation of a bath, until he comes to the Planters' house. There he pays to an Ethiopian fifty cents for the use of nn old fashioned, dirty tub with just enough water in it to rinse a baby in. After all the proprietor of this onc-horso tub establishment says, I will close out tho the bathing business; I can't make it pay-" All observers of health and longevity agree upon thi3 fact, that a man may change his underwear daily, yet if he docs not wash off the scurf created by obstruction and perspiration of the skin, his body is not clean, and sooner or later must suffer the consequences. As nature has favored this city wiih such an extensive water privilege, it would not be very expensive to build near the river a bathing institution for warm and cold baths. It would surely be a paying investment and a benefit to your city.
