is pure and greaseless), and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use.

Dies Moines. April ll.-Flags should

has been sha meleSsly erlooked in the
opinion Of Adj;.-Geu. Guy NJ. Logan.
There has been some dispute as 10
whether or not there was a law on the

OF providing for the supplies Of any
pubic building TO provide in connection
with other supplies for any such build

for the purposes herein provided
Attorney Robbins II ruling on this
question says: In my judgment the
term public building as made use OF
in this section would include all state
buildings. all county buildings such as
court houses. and al city buildings
such as city hal public libraries an0
