 The physicians of Pratt City and Wylsm announce that they have the cpl demic of infantile paralysis fairly well under control now and hope to wipe it out soon. While the epidemic has been rather serious it has not been quite as bad as some of the reports sent out about

NO. II DOES NOT STOP.

The Northwestern has issued a new
time card and Denison people will be
much disappointed to learn that all
their efforts have been unavailing to
stop No. II, the early morning train
from the east. This is an injustice to
Denison and great inconvenience to
travellers. The Carroll station is a
cold. filthy. uEsanitary place. TO be
aroused to leave the train at four
O'Clock in the morning and then to
wait more than two hours for a dinky
local train is an intolerable nuisance.
After all the promises Of better serv'
ice made to Denison by the North.
western we believe we have some.
thing coming. The new time card is
evidence that it is not intended to
grant the request of the business men
OF DenisOn. If we cannot stop the
trains we have an ordinance which, if
enforced, will make them all run
mighty slow. The Review favors law
enforcement and we appeal to the city
officials not to allow the ordinance to
remain a dead letter any longer.
