READY TO REPORT.
Water Department Inspectors Have
Interesting Details to Give.

The six special inspectors of the
water department finished their
rounds of the city, practically, Satur-
day night, with the exception of a
few places to be visited today. Their
report will be submitted to the water
board at Wednesday nights meeting.
Their count of the faucets and other
fixtures for water consumption show
that the estimated number of fixtures
not being charged for was about cor
rect. The inspection is expected to
be followed by the installation of me-
tiers by a number of property owners
The inspectors, who covered the city
street by street, finished in North
Amboy. They met with but little
trouble except with foreigners who
could not understand their errand
and at houses where there were vi
ciOus dogs. They found many places
where the plumbing conditions could
be much better.

DOCTOR SAYS
Finds Grape-Nuts Food Invaluable in
His Practice.

4 physician first healed himself with
food. Then he healed. others. and tells his
story in straightforward, business like
way:
For long time" he writes, II was
unable to assimilate comfortably any or
binary or prepared breakfast foods. Nearly
everything disagreed with me, bringing ou'
heavy headaches, a bad taste in the mouth
and IA dullness OF mind that was not only
unpleasant. but interfered with active men
tai work. Since beginning the use of Grape
Nuts food some months ago, however, these
troubles have vanished and breakfast is
relished and enjoyed it ought TO be.
II find, too. that "A small quantity OF
GrapeN Nuts and cream eaten just before
starting out to visit patients at night pre-
vents the feeling OF depression that used
to result from this extra exertion and loss
of sleep.
My wife suffered for several months
from recurring attacks of indigestion with
commandments would be very miserable
for days at time and almost any kind
of food added to the trouble. She found
by experiment that by using Grape-Nuts
relief would be obtained in very short
time. even when ordinary remedies for in
digestion had failed to help her
Mrs. James s., a patient of mine
suffered with sympathetic heart trouble
and stomach so deranged that it rejected
all food. Her strength was rapidly failing
from lack OF nourishment | recommended
the use Of Grape-Nuts with cream every
or hours. Tho food proved at once ac-
ceptable to her stomach and her recovery
TO perfect health speedily followed
II have found Grape Nuts an excellent
food for patients cOnvalescing from ex-
hausting fevers as typhoid and pneu-
monia. and always recommended its use
by such. II is admirably suited TO these
cases not only because II is easily di-
gested. but because OF the great amount
OF nourishment II contains. It's use ran
idly restores vitality and strength" Name

MORE CHURCH RIOTS IN PARIS
Opposition to separatist Inv Takes
Form of Demonstration
AGAINST LOubct.

PARIS, Feb. 4-The famous cathedral of
Notre Dame was the center of much OK
citement today, which later took the form
OF a disorderly manifestation against
FORMER President Doubet. Crowds asscm-
oled in the Place Notre Dame. expecting
the authorities to come and take an inven-
tory of the chapter house. and a force OF
1O policemen patrolled the SURROUNDING
streets expecting trouble within the edihce.
but as the authorities did not attempt AN
inventory this did not take place.
The crowd outside gradually Increased I'm
numbers, however. and finally several hun
dred persons marched to the Rue Dante.
where Nj. Loubet has taken up his resi-
dence. The manifestants passed before the
house of the former president uttering in
sulting cries against him. The police then
drove of the crowd. which, however. reas-
sembied and returned. only to be dispersed
again. slight ARRAY took place between
the police and the manifestants as the latter
sought to return once more and a dozen
arrests were made.
The explanation of the movement against
NJ Loubet is that the bill for the separa-
ton OF church and state became a law
during his administration.
Inventories were made In several churches
today. At the aristocratic St. Thomas the
project of police, with strong body OF
men. had to force HIS way through a long
passage into the sacristy owing to the 10,
sistanee offered by a number of the parish
toner's. The priests then refused to hand
over the keys and the project caused the
safes to be broken open. An inventory OF
the property was then made
