ANTI-BACILLI MANIACS.
Berlin August .17. The wav against trailing skirts, previously noted iu cable despatches, grows in dimensions. l.n Saxon Switzerland notices are posted on the trees that wearers of trailing skirts will be tilled. In Isehl, upper Austria, there have been several instances of skirts of unsuspecting ladies being lorn by rabid sanitarians. At Euis, lVussia, the authorities have put up a notice that no long skirts are to be permitted within the precincts of the gardens, and the .janitor refuses admission to those whose skirts arc too long. The sanitary zeal of the Berlin police is rapidly becoming a mania. Under the newest ordinance the touching of bread, cakes, etc., or the handling of moat or vegetables in shops is punishable with a heavy tine.
