the request was withdrawn. Mr. Shell
don stated that the old board of health
had recently placed DR.. Harris in charge
as sanitary inspector and physician to
the patients having contagious diseases,
but that it was only a temporary ar
rangement, on account of Sanitary In
spector Bean having had SO much to
do with disinfectants for some months
past that he had been affected by the
poisonous fumes and wanted q rest, and
DIR. Conant, who had had charge of the
smallpox cases, had felt obliged to take
rest. 1t was only temporary ar
rangement and could be overturned at
once. Also the board had authorized
DR.. Harris to vaccinate 400 persons who
might be living in the vicinity of what
seems to be the infected neighborhood,
at Il cost of 25 cents for each Vaccina-
ton, which was also a temporary ar
rangement subject to instantaneous
change. The old board of health had
felt the great need of a large general
work of vaccination being done but
had felt dffident about going to the eX-
pense without the approval of the city
government
Alderman Hall eApIGSScu IliS ItlS WI VI
a general compulsory free vaccination
all over the city, and no half job.
Alderman Messer favored having
what are known to be infected neigh
borhoods subjected to a house to house
and room to room canvass by the board
of health for the purpose of discovering
if there be any undiscovered cases.
Alderman Cloutier of Ward 4, said
that the greater part of the smallpox
was in his ward, but there had been
cases in Ward 1. He doubted the gen.
uineness of some of the alleged cases,
but was a firm believer in vaccination
and agreed with Alderman Hall that it
should be throughout the city.
Alderman Sheldon said that DR..
Young of the State Board of Health, Dr.
Washburne, who is city physician, Dr.
Conant, DR.. Harris, who has been his
colleague on the local Board of Health
and was health officer, Drs. Lincoln,
Campbell and Davies had all examined
some of those light cases of smallpox
some time since and had all agreed that
they were genuine smallpox. The mild
type of the disease was cause Tor
thankfulness rather than occasion for
expressing doubt as to it's genulneness.
He moved that the mayor be instructed
to confer with the Board of Health and
bring the matter before the city gov
eminent if he deemed necessary. The
motion was given a unanimous pass
age.
AS the vaccination subject was the
particular one for which the common
council had been called together, the
council was notified of the action of
| the board of aldermen, and then both
| bodies adjourned at 9.22 o'clock.

A CEREAL THAT TASTES GOOD.
Malt Breakfast Food Not Medicated
Fad; Simple, Delicious, Appalling
Food.

To see the number of health foods
now advertised makes one think that
we are becoming a nation of dyspeptics
and invalids. Nothing is further from
the truth. Most of us have a bit OF
red blood in our veins, and do not want
medicated breakfasts. 1t is to these
people that Malt breakfast Food
appeals. It's pleasant taste; it's appetite
ing flavor: is ease of cooking, make the
food a most delicious and palatable
addition to the breakfast.
Malt Breakfast Food is not a ready
to-serve cereal; it is to be cooked in
your own kitchen and brought to the
table a delicious and dainty dish.
Those who use Malt Breakfast Food
continue its friends for years and
years, and always have it on the break
fast table; it is not a food that they
tire of.
Mrs. George A. Goss of SO Dean
street, RrattleborO, VT, in recent
letter writes: II have been keeping
house just a year, and have used a
package of Malt Breakfast Food every
week during the year. We have 1T for
breakfast every morning, and like it
so well thatNwe do not care to eat any
have used it for making cruel, and
have found it delicious
Letters like this show how different
Malt Breakfast Food is from all other
cereals; 1T is so superior that the pro-
prietors authorize grocers everywhere
to sell it on the money back plan

tulle and carried q shower bouquet of
white sweet peas. After a wedding
dinner the young couple left for a we'd

The worm is beginning to turn In Chicago
in. an action for damages aggregating $4,000,
JOHN NJ STILES made an unprecedented at
tack on organized labor. STILES is painting
contractor He alleges in his petition that his
business has been practically ruined by the
strikes instigated by the painters pool because
of his refusal to affiliate. He sues eight labor
organizations and A., 900 members individually
and seeks to hold the treasury of the Unions
and the savings of the members liable for
damages He also asks an injunction prevent
ing the further interference with his business
The action is based on a recent English decision
that made the treasures of Labor Unions and
and the individual savings of the members liza
BILE for damages sustained by the conduct of
the organization or members. Naturally local
labor leaders are surprised and disturbed.
They declare the proceeding an attempt to
crush Labor Unions and concede that holding
by the Courts in conformity with the English
finding will prove formidable blow to labor
organization.
