F SANITARY MATTERS.
Inspector Moses Tells of Some or tl
 Cases He Has 70 Deal With. "a

rnspector Moses Tells of some or the
 Cases He Has 70 Deal With. Y
 The lot ofsSanitary Inspector Moses is not an enviable one He is out every morning about o'clock investigating re- ported cases of nuisance in various parts of the city, and often after returning to his office tired and worn out after several hours nosing around through ash barrels, garbage cans and foul smelling cellars, finds parties in waiting prepared to give him good berating because he has not been up their way, when he was some place else. Some of the cases the inspec- tor has to deal with are the outcome of neighbors' quarrels. A man may maintain nuisance on his premises for years and the very day he removes it the same man will be up town entering complaint against some of his neighbors for similar offense to what he has been fighting against abating on his own property for years. A person who has once been com- pelled to clean up his yard becomes a menace to the whole neighborhood. He planes everybody for his trouble and in his efforts to get square with his imaginary enemies he seizes the slightest opportunity to enter a complaint and on this account the inspector is often sent on wild goose chase.
 A man who lives on the outskirts of the city says there is more need of calling at tention to the filthy condition of things in some of the back yards around the cen ter than in any other part of the town he knows of. "Have you ever looked into one of those places" he asked. "If man living in any of the streets outside the center dared to allow the dirt and filth to accumulate in his yard in the same man. ner as it does in the back yards of several buildings in the center howl of indigna- ton would be sent up that would be heard from one end of the town to the other. and yet you rarely ever hear word about it. It seems that the fact of living up- town gives one the right to do a great many things that would not be tolerated any place else." He thought the reason nothing was ever heard about this was be- caus, few had any access to their places ex- cept those who are responsible for the hui sance."

This was Kelly's big purchase on Thurs day afternoon, consisting of the three greatest brands of four in the World, Plllsburry's Best xxx, 1O5O bbls Niagara Falls. 100 bbis Washburn Crosby Superlative. 15O0 lbbs
 The reason why made this great pur- chase is because think flour will not be any lower, at this season of the year. the price of mill feeds drops, which must be offset by higher -four or lower wheat and it seems impossible to have wheat any lower, andit gives the new flour chance to become seasoned before I can get rid of the old, which consists of the following brands.
 Niagara Falls, 15O bbIs Washburn, Crosby, Go. 625 bbls Jones' Superlative, BIO bbls Christians Superlative, 90 bbls Pillsbury's. Best, S25 bbIs Entire Wheat, 9O bbis St Louis, 4oU oDis
 Remember that old Wheat Flour will make more bread, winter bread. lighter bread and the bread will keep moist longer then bread made from new -four. Washburn. Was Crosby CO. $4.5o If you give my man an empty barrel. Ask for Kelly's 25c Butter and sava money.
