so, tho following shamefully horrible facts would
clinch the argument against us: Last evening"
along l. street north, near Temperance Hall, he
found three little hildren interesting themselves
with an object In such a way as to induce him to
examine 1t. 1t proved to be the unmatured of:
spring OF some iend misnamed woman, and to 1t
was attached piece of paper whercon was writ
ten, This Is your Valentine" The Doctor took
charge of the object and carried II to Police
Headquarters, to be properly disposed OF by the
sanitary officers. We really believe that II this

respect for his inmates, would refuse an entrance.
