Most dishes requiring deep frying
are denied the dyspeptic because they are
usually fried in lard, and lard does not
"agree." The following recipe will be
welcomed by those OF poor digestion:
Peel the potatoes and slice thin into
cold water. Drain well, and dry in a
towel. Fry a few at II time in hot Cotto-
iene. Salt as you take them out. and lay
them on coarse brown paper for a short
time.
The above recip. can be followed
without the least fear of disagreeable
after effects. The chips will be crisp
and dry-not greasy, as when fried in
lard Cottolene contains no hog fat,
but is made OF purest cottonseed oil; il
is recommended by physicians generally.

WILL REFRAME ORDINANCE
REGULATING THE DOGS.

1t had been expected hat some ac-
ton would be taken on the building
ordinance which has been before the
council for months past, at last nights
meeting, but City Attorney Collins
had not prepared certain additional
amendments desired and the matter
was passed over, Alderman Wroth
suggesting that something ought to be
done with the ordinance during the
next three or four weeks.
Instead the council turned to Il Wig
orOus discussion OF the three existing
ordinances regulating the keeping,
taxing, impounding, redeeming and
Staying of dogs: a discussion which
IND resulted in a motion to instruct
the city attorney to prepare an ordi-
nance making the desired amend
ments. The council found its way in
to the dog matter through n report
by Chief of Police McMillin, who was
entrusted with the task Of finding q
suitable place to which to remove the
dog pound. He stated that the city's
property near the outlet was
likely to be flooded in wet weather II
that the best way around the difficult
~ would he to rent q lot Mt the south
end Of Second street. This being in
side the CITY limits, he called the at
tention of the council to the prOvis-
ion in the existing ordinances requir-
ing that dog pound be outside the city
limits. lie thought this should be
amended and also the provision allow
ing the dog catcher a dollar for noti-
fving owners of impourded dogs OF
their detention. The mashal also
thought there should be n pound
closer in for cows as he considered it
bad policy to drive milch cows any
great distance and back AGAIN.
This led TO q general discussion of
the dog tax ordinance n the mayor
ordered the ordinance read with The

WORK ON THE SEWER
Is NOW LOOKING UP.

Chairman Wroth Of the sewer com
mittee reported that work on the sew
er had made more satisfactory pro-
gress during the past month than al
any time since the work began. He
recommended the passage of IN ord
nance regulating the making of con
nections with the sewer, a matter
brought up by him during the early
DAYS of the eve contract movement,
and also that it be made plain to the
public tina no connections would be
allowed with the new sewer system
until. it had BEEF accepted by the city.
On motion OF Alderman Neustadt the
city attorney was ordered TO prepare
an ordinance regulating the making of
connections as suggested by the re-
port.
Alderman Beaver from the street
committee, reported the completion
of four blocks of grading and a bridge
on Walter street and asked permission
to have the street s~prinklers repaird
and to buy Il new sprinkler. Both re-
quests were granted. the clerk to ask
for bic on the new sprinkler cart. He
also reported hat Contractor y. w.

Among the petitions presented last
night was one from the Learnard and
Lindemann boys band asking for a
contract to play in Robinson park for
months during the summer, at
S240 for the season. This was refer
TO the finance committee.
A petition was read from the Ameri-
Lumber Co. fire department, ask
that the city department pay V
10 that department $500 of the $2,250
received from the territory as this
proportion of the insurance de-
oartment revenue. The petition stated
heretofore the lumber company's
department received its proportion of
his fund. but that under Il law of the
'ecent legislature it was cut out, the
being paid to the city. This the
petition states, was doubtless on the
understanding that the lumber COM
)any was within the city limits and
inder city fire protection. The petit
toner's thought the money due them
asked for action. The matter was
to the fire committee.
A petition was read asking an arc

monthly reports no further busi-
was transacted. The council ad-

N. Marion, John s. Beaver and 9TH
ers on which Shea is alleged to he
engaged. The text of the petition,
which was referred to the building,
light and fuel committee. without COM
ment, is as follows:

lows:

lie shall not he engaged in any 9TH
er business during working hours

affect the duties of his office and shall
not in any instance be engaged in any
line of business that will bring him
into competition with any architect,

no personal feeling against the gent

and proper attention at your hands
