stores have made many women pale,
tired and wornout, just as too much
study and too little outdoor exercise
have made many school children
splndling and delicate. They have
weakened the nerves, impaired diges-
ton, upset nutrition, SO that the blood
has become watery and thin,-a result
plainly seen in the colorless lips, cheeks
and ears.
pIoo much responsibility, anxiety and
worry have, in the same way, broken
down the health of many busy men.
Now, what is needed by all these
sufferers is iron, a natural constituent
OF healthy, strong and ruddy blood, as
combined in the new iron tonic, Pept-
iron, which strengthens and colors the
blood, nourishes and steadies the
nerves, cures paleness, weakness, ner-
vousness, dyspepsia and sleeplessness.

LETTUCE FOR SMALLPOX

Informed 10 persons who do not know
,yhat the Lass provides on this matter
Il may be necessary 20 say, that the
statutes provide for appointments by
the mayor. "by and with the advice
and consent Of the city Council The
council ls as much a factor as the
mayor in making appointments and
also in enectng removals from office
The authority ls no more vested IN him
than IN mat body This Is so plain a
matter that anyone With ordinary sense
need not err therein. Every member
of the council is entitled TO a. vote on
such an appointment or removal and
he rs not bound TO fall into line, either
with the mayor or with other partisan
members. An the epithets heaped upon
four gentlemen who merely acted on
their sense Of public duty are scurril-
Gus abuse. worthy only Of the source
from which they are expectorated'
The city Council, IN dIsagreeng with
the mayor on any public measure ar APP
poin.ment. does not "usurp' any
thing IT simply exercises its lawful
authority conferred By statute. our
contemporary speaks Of this az che
vicious system Of municipal govern
mont we have" That s also mistake.
The system IS an right II is the man
ner In which it is eyaded, mscarried,
violated and dedcd that Is az fault. The
balance Of power between the eNecu"
tive and the senate Of the nation and
the mayor and council Of a city IN the

one man power that Is SO obnoxious to
American republicansm. II has proved
OF great benefit in this city as well az
IN the entire nation Il should be main
tanned and applauded, not derIded or
condemned. Every attempt to abolish
It and set up AN autocracy here ought
10 be stamped out without conjunction
or hesitation.
But Whatever opinions certain indl-
yiduals may entertain for purposes OF
their own antagonstic to this view, the
law has established the system, It has
worked well from the beginning IL is
check on the personal projects and
private ambitions Of men who ape the
RULER when In office. and despse to
be the Servant Of the people, The sys-
TEN is al right. and is only objected
to by the extreme partisan, the schemer
and the featherer OF his own nest at
the public expense.
The four councilmeu who have been
cast out of their political party by a
yituperatlye paper, need not worry over
the communication (?) for it does not
come from any recognized authority.

seemly wrath, which Will be eyap-

Shaftesbury, as she dashed the berb-
boned bottle against the bow OF Sir
Tommy's challenger, as the craft went
sliding down the ways at Dumbarton.
The language OF the countess Is justi-
ded By popular usage, but not by the
best Of taste. a christening Is a re-
lgious ceremony, strictly speaking, and
that designation applies only in cases
where name Is given to person In
the name Of Christ. The other day
when our latest new cruiser was
