That the inspection of nuisances was mado on different time3 and at different places, on complaints as stated in the bill rendered. That section 19 of ordinance No. 153, requires the health officer to keep his office open for gratuitious vaccin ation. That he did so, but on advice chair man of committee on health and po lice, the same was not advertised in the daily papers, as it might create a panic in tho town, and give undue alarm outside tho town.

That the caso of leprosy was re ported to the health officer and the patient found close to tho town lino and two visits were made to deter mine the character of the disease.

Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered liver is misery. Indigestion is a foe to good nature. The human digestive apparatus is one of the most complicated and won derful things in existence. It is easily put out of order. Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food, bad cookery, mental worry, late hours, irregular habits, and many other things which ought not to be, have made the American people a nation of dyspeptics. But Green's August Flower has done a wonderful work in reforming this sad buainesa and making the American people so healthy that they can enjoy their meals and bo happy. Remember: No happiness without health. But Green's August Flower brings health and happiness to the dyspeptic Ask your druggist for a bottle. Seventy-five cents. Same Here "With the Railroad. Whether the subsidy asked for the hotel at Portland is to bo raised or not will depend entirely on the liberality of our largest owners of city and suburban property. Oregon ian.
