WANT
GOOD HOSPITAL
Thinks King Daughters Can Be Made To Pay.
Free Dispensary Suggested.

That the physicians think that Mar
tinsburg should have a good hospital
and that it is possible to so manage
the Kings Daughters concern as TO
produce a fair return for money in
vested was the fact CLEANED by a
World reporter on Thursday from in
terviews had with physicians.
so far from being antagonistic to
the present institution the physicians
would seem to be decidedly in favor
Of it. 1t is the opinion that the pres
ent hospital has given as good service
as is possible and better than is given
in. many places.
Should Have Dispensary.
1t was suggested by one physician
that it would be good idea to have
free dispensary connected with the
hospital. 1t was thought that If that
were done it would be nice II the
young ladies of Martinsburg would
take charge of IT, Insofar as medical
service was concerned it was said
that the physicians would gladly do
nate their services. Thus the young
women could be of assistance in the
care of the sick.
1t was pointed out that In other
places the young ladies' devote small
portion of their time to such work
Flower societies are formed and the
young women take flowers to the sick
In some places, too, amusement is
furnished the patient in the form OF
singing on Sunday afternoon. Inso.
far as the supply is concerned 1t was
said that the physicians would gladly
donate their services whenever need

Fifty Dollars.

Special to Telegram.

made are in the liquor licenses. Re.
tail licenses are raised from $500 to

GARBAGE PILE
IS TERRIBLE
People of West End May Take Steps
TO Force Operation of Crematory
Or Stop Filth Dumping.

Health officers and other authori-
ties will likely be appealed to in a
few days by the people living with
in half a mile OF the city crema-
tory property and steps taken to
either force the operation Of the
crematory by the city or stop the
dumping OF the city's garbage at that
place.
A dead horse has been dragged to
the huge garbage dump by the cre-
matory and left there. The carcass
is PURIFYING. sending forth foul
odors and breeding maggots In COM
pany with the carcasses of other
smaller animals. slop. filth and dirt
that have been hauled to that awful
place and accumulated there in a
great pile.
The city council has set apart FRI
day as day to operate the city Gre
matory but the thing has been neg
lected so much OF late that the FIRE
box has fallen to pieces. the crate
bars have collapsed and the furnace
is not fit for operation. 1t appears
that the gigantic pile of garbage
cannot be made away with for some
time or at least until the city coun-
ell appropriates some money for re-
pairing the crematory. In view of
the fact that only one days work
can be done each week. according to
the regulations provided by the city
council. 1t may be many months be-
fore the furnace even is repaired.
Thus the general health o. the en-
tire west end of the city will be
placed in great danger and the peo-
pie residing in that section will most
likely have to take steps to protect
themselves.

these medicines contain 10 alcoho! or
other habit-iUrming drugs. Neither do
they contain any narcotics or injurious
agents, their ingredients being purely
vegetable, extracted from the roots Of
