He said the meet- e would be glad to have any mem- bers of the board or any of the out- siders present express themselves free. he subject, City Health Officer Dr, Keating was present, and being called upon, he said that he felt the small- pox situation was becoming alarming, and he doesn’t know where it will break out next. He recommended a temporary isolation hospital. Mayor Dunn eaid: “We have got to satisfy the public and if the majority are not now satisfied that it is small- pox, I consldered it advisable that a specialist be brought here, notwith- standing tha confidence we have in our local physicians to pass upon the cases existing here at present in order that the public be thoroughly satisfled.” Various members of the board and Judge D. A. Lyman spoke at some length, Corporation Counsel W, A. King ques- tioned Dr. Keating closely relative te the quarantine being maintained, and received responses that all pos- sible was being done under the pres- ent conditions. When questioned as to the number of actual cases existing at the present time, Dr. Keating said that there were eight true cases and three cases in mild form.

Mrs. Com Plaint—"‘Did yon see that Mrs. Smith pass by? Here it is wash day and she is trotting the children out for an afternoon in the park.”, Mrs. Nocker—*‘1 suppose her house is full of unwashed clothes. She ought to stay home and clean up, as we do.” Anty Drudge—‘‘My dear ladies, Mrs. Smith’s wash is all done and dried. She uses Fels-Naptha Soap. Do the same, and you will be able to go out to the park, wash- day afternoon, too.”’ Ask the woman who knows Fels-Naptha to go back to the drudgery of the old-fashioned wash-day. Not she! Fels-Naptha means too much to her. She knows too well what a labor saver it is—what an economy. Fels-Naptha actually does most of the wash for her. Instead of boiling or scalding and hard rubbing in the old way, she simply soaps them well with Fels-Naptha, in cool or lukewarm water and soaks about 30 min- utes. Fels-Naptha dissolves the dirt. Her wash-day starts after breakfast and ends at noon instead of at supper time. Fels-Naptha saves fuel; saves clothes. And when the wash is done, she is fresh and happy and the clothes are far cleaner, than if she had boiled and hard- rubbed them for a whole day. Be sure to use Fels-Naptha the Fels-Naptha way—in cool or lukewarm water. Follow the directions on the red fl green wrapper.
