It has been tlw habit In Astoria, either through oversight or negilgence, to allow the city officers to proceed so far in the direction of con templated unlawful expenditures of public money that recourse could only be had on to the courts to stop them. The result has been that the city has paid out sums of money In fighting at tempted Interference with public Im provements and in costs which had much better been applied to the re duction of taxes or used in carrying on work which everybody conoed- j ' ed to be legitimate.

The Best Food for Infants Nature planned that infants should have only milk for at least the first year of life. But thin milk, skimmed milk, will not nourish. It's the milk that is rich in cream, or fat, that does the work. This is be cause fat is positively neces sary for the growing body. SCGIi'S EflTdiSiOn contains the best fat, in the form of Cod-Liver Oil, for all delicate children. They thrive greatly under Hi use. Soon they weigh more, eat more, play better and look better.
