At an adjourned meeting of the city
council Tuesday evening, the contract for
constructing the water works buildings
was accepted, Mr.. Rosenberg giving as
his bondsman T. d. Bragunier. The
following resolution was also adopted:
Resolred, That the mayor, in connec-
ton with the committee ON water works,
be instructed to have the water in the
supply well pumped out, noting the eX-
tent of the flow and the time it takes to
empty said well; also to note the time it
takes to fill the well after the water is
pumped out, and TO report such informa-
ton as they can obtain, of value in de-
termining the propriety-providing. in
their judgment, there is not sufficient
supply of water-of either digging the
present well deeper, digging another
well, or adopting some other method OF
obtaining n sufficient supply of water
for water works purposes, and to report
at the next regular meeting on the 10Th
| OF April.

If not above being taught by man,
use Dobbins' Electric Soap next wash
day; used without wash boiler or board,
and used differently from any other soap
made. 1t seems droll to think of a quiet,
orderly two hours light work on wash
day, with no heat, no steam, or smell of
washing through the house, instead of
long days hard work; but hundreds of
thousands of women from Nova Scotia
to Texas have proved for themselves that
this is done by using Dobbins' Electric
Soap. Don't buy it, however, if too set
in your ways to use it according to di-
rections, so simple as to seem almost
ridiculous, and so easy that girl of
twelve years can do large wash without
being tired. 1t positively will not in
