suit Of their work does not equal the sal

BOARD OF HEALTH
SCORES CITY COUNCIL
Part of Report Referring to
Garbage Question Cut
Out by Orders

The Board of Health I'm its report for
1902 scores City Council for its past ac-
tions relative to the matter Of collecting
garbage. When the report of the depart
ment was presented to Council d. was or
dered that 500 copies be printed, but dur
ing the time the work was being done
Secretary Joseph Wigglesworth discovered
that the portion of the report referring to
Council and the garbage question had been
cut out presumably by the printing COM
mittee of City Council. In this way the re-
port was printed and the following is the
omitted section:
The gravest sanitary question that con-
fronts the citizens of Wilmington today
is the collection and disposal of garbage.
On December % 1892, the city Council
passed an ordinance directing that the
Board of Health should employ a sufficient
number of men and horses, together with
watertight carts, by advertising for pro-
posals and awarding the contract TO the
lowest and best bidder to collect and re-
move the garbage and offal from the
dwellings and other places in the several
garbage districts Of the city.
In accordance ito the provisions of a sec
ton Of the same ordinance the Board of
Health had the general supervision Of the
collection and removal of garbage, and
from time TO time instituted further rules
and regulations for the betterment of the
service. Under these regulations and rules
the system steadily improved and the
number of complaints reduced 10 a mimi
mum. In the year 1899 the system Of gar
bage collection was as near perfect as IT
was possible ito make d.
In December Of this same year the City
Council, in open defiance to public opinion
and in opposition to the entire press OF
the city, ended the ordinance Of 1892 and
gave to the Council the right TO award the
contracts for the collection and removal
of garbage. The amended ordinance also
gave Council entire supervision and con-
troll Of the collection and removal Of gar
bage and offal within the city. and author
ity to make such rules and regulations as
may be necessary for that purpose.
In January of the year 1900 the City
Council awarded the contracts for the
collection Of garbage. awarded them tC
men for purely political purposes, not
withstanding that other bidders. equally as
responsible and competent, proposed TO dc
D NAAN WI n ANA AaA ANor AltlltAs It OF AhANt
years the City Council has had entire SUI
pervision and control over the collection
of garbage and the system has proved NJ
utter failure, inasmuch as Council has no
compelled the contractors to live up Z,
their contracts.
Within month Of the awarding of th'
contracts in January, 1900, the City Council
endeavored to shirk the responsibility BY
further amending the ordinance TO compe
he secretary Of the Board of Health TO re
ceive all complaints Of the failure on th'
part Of the contractors 10 remove garbage
During the year 1902 upwards OF hv'
thousand complaints were received a

Mind Impaired and Nerves
 Shattered From Excessive Men.
 tai Strain. Dr. Miles Nervine Gave Back My Health.

. It is not always severe manual labor that breaks down the health. Mental strain, worry, anxiety, the cares of business or the home, have an equally strong tendency towards undermining the nervous system, upon whose vitality the health of the body depends. When you find yourself unduly fretful, anxious, easily excitable; when your sleep is troubled and you can get no rest; if you have frequent headache, are losing your appetite and are getting thin, you should be- gin at once a thorough course of treatment with Dr. Miles Nervine. There is no nerve tonic so good, so sufe, so safe. It speedily restores the weakened nerves to healthy action, and builds strength and tissue.
 q was raised on a farm at hard labor, and when left the farm and began preaching, the chsnge of occupation and excessive study shattered my nerves sadimpaired my memory. l began taking Dr. Miles Restor- ative Nervine, and after using two bottles could see a decided improvement, and con tinued until I hacpused nine bottles, when l considered myself completely cured. That was seven years ago so that know my cure is permanent. My health has been excellent ever since. am glad to add my testimony to the merits of this wonderful restorative and trust that other sufferers may receive the same benefit from it's use that have.

 He has arranged to answer all letters that are sent to him from women troubled with any form of female weakness, free of charge giving the benefit of knowl- edge which has cost him forty years to. accumulate.
 The medicines he prescribes are within the reach of any woman, and she can get them at any drug store.
