HEALTH PROTECTED.
The Precautions Taken During the
Long Hot Summer Months.

The summer quarantine is on, and there
is no more hopes of having South Broad
street paved before the cold weather sets
in. Vessels from infected ports will be
carefully watched, and no chances will be
taken that will cause sickness in our
midst. The market inspector will go on
his daily rounds and condemn all meats
that are not in proper condition. He will
visit Logan's stalls regularly and peep in
MS mammoth refrigerators, making his
usual remark that there is none better.
It's noted fact that Logan keeps the
finest meats and poultry, and in season.
His selections Of lamb, salmon, smelt and
other delicacies are the best the market
of the world affords. There's another
thing that shows the superiority of Lo-
gan's business to that of a great many

ployed, and his delivery wagons are on
