llHEREVER you happen to see a group of young
" fellows you are most certain to find them wearing
clothes of rare style and individuality. We don't claim
hat these clothes are always of an exceptional quality
but we do claim that young men affect certain features
which older peple don't. In "College Chap Clothes"
we have been fortunate enough to find a quality which
is not by any means expensive, and features which are
strikingly young though not too young, for men who
wish to retain their youthful appearance.
The Normandie, The Norfolk, the College Chap and
the College Chap Jr., are four styles of young men's
garments. They are classed under the name of
"College Chap Clothes." They are a branch of
"Modern Clothes", made by Brandegee, Kincaid &
Co.. tailor shop at Utica. .

Investigate Typhoid Conditions. '
Dr. W. II. Wilson, state hoalth Inspec
tor, spent Fridny in town and with City
Physician Quiglcy made an Investigation
of tho typhoid conditions in town. They
rendered the following report:
An investigation of tho typhoid con
dition in North Platto shows that six
cases have developed here and they
have all been in places where water
from surface wells was used and whero
open closets were found on tho prom
ises. No cases of typhoid wcro found
developing in homes that hnd closets
connected with tho sower and whero
city wa'or was used. There is no epl'
domic of typhoid In North Platte. There
are not as many cases as there was tit
this timo last year but according to tho,
number of deaths reported from this
disease it pas assumed a very much
more virulent form. This may bo due
in part to cultivation of tho germs in
thn surface soil. Tho investigation
showed that the discharges from the'
kidneys and bowels of persons suffering
from typhoid have in n great many In
stances neon buried in the surface, soil,
sometimes near wells, and in gardens
whore people were taking vegetables
for food. This manner of deposing of
sewerage is unsanitary as it perpetuates
tho disease in the soil and it Is washed
by rains into wells and blown by the
wind with the 'Just into homes, in
theso cor.es mentioned carbolic acid was
being mixed with tho sewerage but -in
such Btnall ciuantitlee as toibc uselmt
Tor tho purpose infonded.
The cause ot typhoid in North natte
may bo sumed up in thrco words; filth,
tlies, and wells. the hrst. includes open
closets and manure piles. This sourco
of danger may be eliminated by tho
city forcing sower connections when
ever possible and allowing no open ma
nure piles. The second factor, the flies,
carry the germs from tho tilth to tho
food. Getting rid of tho filth will elim
inate them. The third mentioned source
of danger, tho wells, should never bo
considered safe at any time as tho sur
face water without doubt always carries
discape. If a person' must use surface
wnter the water should bo boiled, but
it is recomended that no wnter be used
from any well less than 200 feet.
Discharges from patients sick with
typhoid should bo mixed with one-tentn
part carbolic acid and emptied in sewer.
If no sewer connection exists thon they
should bo mixed as above and buried at
least six feet deep covering each do
posit with chloride of lime and keeping
the holo covered, lining lip whon tho
patient has ceased to have tho disease
