Letter to E. E. SOlIarS.

Dear Sir:-There are several ways
of cheating in milk. An old-fashioned
way is to water it. Nobody waters it
now. A better way is to take out the
cream-rich milk with the cream
taken out is as good as poor milk with
it's cream all in.
But we needn't go into particulars.
You don't rob your milk and your
customers.
Paint is as easy as milk to cheat
with. Good paint is as rare as good
milk; for human nature is much the
same in milkmen as in paint men.
You are just and true with your
milk; so are we with our paint. De-
voc lead and zinc is twice as good as
pure white-lead; lasts twice as long.
There's twice as much butter in it,
Yours truly,

The Marvellous Cure OF n.s. Cook, Of

Rheumatism, terrible in its acute,
and long enduring in its chronic form,
is one of the most baneful diseaccs
that human beings suffer from. 1t is
Il disease that will not bear neglect,
for if not treated promptly will re-
main till death to haraSs, torture,
and make life miserable.
Rheumatism is also a constitution.
al disorder ard hereditary. Because
of an inactive condition of the kid.
neys and bowels the blood is not pur-
iiied, and an acid poison is formed
and deposited in Tie muscles and
joints, and this causes the intllmation
and intense agonies that thousands
are obliged to endure. TOO often, the
effects OF rheumatism are fatal, es-
pecially when the dread disease affects
the heart: then death is sudden. Many
other serious complications result
from this terrible disease. such as
pneumonia, pleursy, meningitis, and
diaphragmitis, and these often:lprovc
rapidly fatal.
RacIcd and tortured reader, what
are you doing to get rid Of your dam
ger? Physicians candidly admit their

icincs of the day my give you relief

Joints, and muscles; they cannot take
the swcllings from your knees, ,clbows,
or wrists, or make supple The stiitcn-

Of these was the clause requiring the
campany to light the section through
which it proposed to operate line.
MI johnson said that the board
did not desire to pIi any severe re-
strictiunS on the company, but did
feel that The company should give
something in rcturn for a valuable
privilege.
CITY Solicitor Reinhlrlt then TOOK
up the proposed franchise and pointed
uu. that it contained the same clause
as the other franchise otNth Peoples
Railway. which does not compel them
to pay for the labor for paving, but
only requires them to pty Tor the
material.
MIR. llillcs saii the clause had been
put in because it wa, in the other

Mr. Melvin said that l.c also felt

Mr.. lIIics sliA that if tn, hoard
put time limit on tho franc,iS, the
company did not want it, for with a
time limit it would be impossible to
finance the road.
After some discussion it was dtcil-
cd to abandon the section which COM

The bridge over The Branlywinc

argument 1t vas decided that il
should lie private structure built on
private land, but open as a footWalk
to persons. An agreement was also
reached that If the city at any lime
desires to build Il public bridge at
that point it can do 50 by giving the
company the right to operate cars on
it.
The next point argued was the
grading Of streets over which the line

the company were opposed to do.
ing, because of the cost, saying
that such work would be prohibitive.
After a long discussion. in which
City Engineer Boughman gave some
figures as to how much grading was
necessary, the railway company
agreed TO do all grading from curb
TO curb.
President Melvin then brought up
the time limit question. lie said
lie felt that there should be a limit,
even if it was 999 years, because
it did not seem right that the board
should give away forever some
things that might be of benefit to
generations yet 10 come.
President Spotswood Garland Of
the Peoples Railway. said that the
other companies have prepetual
franchise. and that lie felt his COM
pany should have it now. IT was
under the impression that such a
franchise would be granted that
the company had secured charter
and paid the lees to the Secretary
OF State, but if Il time limit was
placed on the privilege, It would be
impossible TO secure financial sup
port for bulldirg road.
The members of the board con-
ferred a while. and then President
Melvin announced.that as the COM
pany has gone ahead and got its
charter and paid its fees under the
impression that the board would
give Il franchise without time
limit, the board would wave it this
time. but ,ha, in the future all pub.
lie franchises must have a time
limit. or they may be Sold to the
highest bidder.
In addition to doing the grading
the company viii! also sprinkle the
streets IN summer, pave between
the rails with fire bi;ck and ior
!hrce feet on each side. The OIL
ticers OF the company asked If
when the franchise is put in proper
condition It would he passed by the
board. President Melvin said that
it would be granted when some
satisfactory arrangements. for the
settlement OF Tie old account Tor
paving was reached.
