THEY DON'T LIKE SEWER:

Communication From an East Side
Resident.
The following communication has been
received from an East Slider anent their
proposed sewering:
"The citizens on Griffin avenue. East
Los Angeles, sent to the city council last
week q protest containing the names of
all the residents on Griffin avenue save
two to have the contemplated sewer on
said street Abandoned for the present, as
95 per cent OF the frontage on said street
was represented on the protest. On
Monday last q large majority of the
residents on the said street met the
council to give their reasons for protest.
ing. The reasons given were: First,
that no person wanted the sewer on the
aforesaid said street; second, it was not
necessary for health or convenience.
there being only % houses on a mile
frontage, and that on the most elevated
portion Of the east on . graded street.
Third-That it does not interfere with
the building Of any other sewer in the
district, and can be Topped off from the
present district without detriment to
the sewers contemplated to be put in on
other streets.
buo 6cWoI
will be more of detriment to that
locality in sanitary point OF view than
q benefit, as the sewer CAGES OF the city
will be more freely distributed at the
higher points than on the lower levels,
thus making it detrimental rather than
beneficial.
Fiith-The property owners on said
street have been heavily taxed for the
opening OF streets along the line of said
Griffin avenue during the past few
months, and to sewer that street at
present will be the confscation of their
homes, and the contractor would have
to take the property for the debt.
The professionals are very sorry to see
the gentlemen representing the people
of Los Angeles in the city council SO
crazed over sewering the city that they
wish to tax the people for sewers in
localities where none but lunatics and
weak minded men would presume for a
moment that such sewer was necessary.

FEW ATTRACTIVE DISHES.
Baked custsrds OF eggs and milk can
DE cooked in large cups and supply al
ways kept in the cupboard. Instead OF
sugar. honey or little grated cheese or
cocoanut meal or stoned or sliced dates
or etoneless raisins (Sultanas), may be
added; boiled milk may be poured into
jugfulof dates or Sultanas or figs. to be
used when nearly cold. as q substantial
breakfast dish.
ANY sort of such dried fruits will make
nice salad for lunch, combined with
oranges peeled and sliced with few
grapes or Sultanas, adding little CO ker
meal.
Black figs soaked few hours and
sliced, after cutting off the stalks, can
be made especially appetizlng, simply
by washing and blending with fork
two or three very ripe bananas with the
lnice OF one large orange for, say, each
dozen OF the figs. mixing all together.
SPECIAL FRUIT ooMPoTE.
Finely ground fresh cocker meal can be
strewn over peeled, ripe bananas or
ounce or guava jelly, as well as with
stoned new dates or with figs soaked as
above, squeezing an orange over the
whole.
Cream or fresh milk added to stewed
or baked aDpleH, or prunes or other
cooked fruits, will be very useful for
breakfast or supper to start with. Con.
densed milk (without sugar) may be
mixed with an equal quantity of warm
water and used as cream. II this is well
stirred up with fresh lemon or lime
juice, it will make q nice curd for ste we'd
or other dried fruits.
