' BRUNSWICK'S COOD HEALTH.
; Is Greatly Due to the Fine Condition
of the City.
I Never before has Brunswick en
i joyed suGh good health as during the

lof this fact was the mortuary report

last meeting of city council, which
1 was one of the best in the history of
the city.
Brunswick physicians report that
there- is very tittle sickness in the
city at present.
This excellent condition is due to
a great extent to the general good
condition of the city. .The streets
are all clean and the people have
been more particular than ever be
tore in keeping their premises clean,
it is to be hoped that this condition
of affairs will exist for the remaind

necessary for the people to assist
the authorities in keeping Brunswick
clean.
