SO years old. ! suffered with headaches
if forced to do without it. and some
times used it three times Il day, but
headache had been one of the ills of
our family, and therefore | thought it
was an inherited evil for which coffee
was a special remedy, but about nine
years ago ! began to suffer from sleep
lessness, which continued until it
seemed as If my nerves would wreck

Contractor Killeen's Bill Likely to
Strike snag in Common Council
Next Monday Night.

The bill of Contractor Thomas l<ll-
leen. for 81 200 for surface sewers, is
likely to strike n stronger snag i'll COM
mon council, Monday night. than IL
did in select council, ut its meeting last
Monday.
Last night. at the meeting OF the
finance committee. President Masters
of common council, served notice that
he would object strenuouslN II neces-
cary. to the payment of the Dill rms
claim was taken from the street conf
u,ittee's hand by select council on
Monday night. and was ordered paiu,
though President Davis registered
vigorous kick. He insisted that the
work was not done properly, ana that
the bill should have been first cohsid-
cred by the finance committee. 1t was
in the finance committees hands but
was referred to the street committee,
from whence it was taken by select
council and ordered paid.
At last nights meeting Mr.. Masters
attacked the claim insofar as 1t COW
cred tie Belmont street surface sewer
This Improvement. he charged, was
most impcrfcctly done. The sections of
pipe were not jointed there was htti"
or no cement used. and the pipe was
not laid at its rroOer depth. At the
outlet it wa: higher than the middle
or the beginning Of the sewer Alto
Eethcr The work was poorly done. ana
in the spring there would be danger of
considerable damage. For these rea-
sons, he was in favor of retaining a
portion of the Sl.100. until it could be
seen that the city was not likely to
suffer. Mr.. Davis. who also inspected
the work, concurred in Mr. Masters S
judgment.
Mr.. Humphrey, who was chairman of
The meeting. agreed with Mr.. Masters.
that if the allegations he made be true
that portion of the money should be
held.
1t was expected that the bill for pro-
fcssonal services in connection with
the Thompson smallpox rases. laid
over at an earlier meeting. after II hot
discussion, would come up. but it was
rot read.
