Miss Davis was worried.
She was a pretty and very busi-

opened a new boarding house. where
the real home cooking was served
and quick and polite service prom

The combination proved so allur-
ing that the boarders came faster than
Miss Davis had dared to hope
, The cook was a genius; Miss Da-
Wis herself gave her own quick and
polite service in the dining room. ac-
cording to the promise of the an
nouncement cards.
But the boarders kept coming. Qnd
consequently work increased After
waiting on the table. Miss Davis had
often to assist her one kitchen girl
with the dishes The pretty well-kepi
nails became split and torn. and her
hands bore mute testimony to knocks
and bruises from unfamiliar drudg-
cry.

ordered her to hire another kitchen

GARBAGE COLLECTIONS.

Secretary Ellison, of the Board Of
Health, in speaking of the complaint
made in the newspapers that garbage
had not been collected in the vicinity
of Thirteenth and Claymont streets.
in three months, said today that no
complaint was received from the per-
son living at No 1906 Claymont
street, and if there had been, it would
have been attended to. Mr.. Ellison
said that since Monday there have
been but three or four complaints a
day from the Second district, which
includes the section of the city in
question.
The only trouble now is being ex-
perienced in the Third District where
the collector who was yigne the con-
tract by the new. Board of Health
has been Handicapped for the want
Of carts. He has received new carts,
however, and unloaded them today, so
that he too, is now in position to col
lect the garbage better.
