the body from Bresee Bros, where the in

health Office and told how Guidipger had
a permit; that they had told him he would
first have to get permit, to which ne
airily replied he did not have to have one

explained the matter to Deputy City At

been no intent to violate the ordinance, he
saw that he and the health officers had
been misled, and promptly went before
Judge Owens and recommended that the
case be dismissed, which was done.

extreme penalty. But there is no escaping
the penalties which nature exacts for dis

laws. Dyspepsia, born of imprudences in
