Mention has been mado recently of the
proposed olllce of water commissioner nnd
attention called to tho contract supposed
to exist between the American Water
Works company, or, as It Is now called, the
Omaha Water company, and tho city of
Scuth Omaha. Thcro Is n contract In ex
istence, but no city official knows where
It Is, as It disappeared from tho flics yoars
ago and has never been located by any
person connected with tho city government.
The only Item tho city has on record Is a
brief mention of tho tlmo the contract was
let nnd the tlmo It will naturally expire.
This record consumes less than half a
pogo of the ordinance book, while tho
franchise. Itself would tnko un a dozen
pages or more.

Nature can assert herself. Tho struggle for health, perhnps for breath, Is then
begun and no ono can see beyond tho gloom. It is not the man who is always
afraid of taking cold or who fusses about exposure that kcops out of harm's
way ; it is tho man whose robust constitution and steady nerves defy disenso ;
whoso blood Is not tho sluggish element that fills the veins of the weakling,
but tho pure, rich red blood of health.
Dr. Greene's
Nervura
Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy is the discovery of the
celebrated Dr. Greene, nnd nothing ever prepared for the Ills of men nnd women
Is so clearly an ntd to Nature. Made entirely of vegetable elements, It will of
Itself cure all ordlnnry cases of debility or nervous exhaustion. When the eases
aro complicated with tho remnants of some devnstutlnr; disease, Dr. Greene's
advice should be sought, and the remedies at his disposal, his own discoveries,
used as ho advises, will bring promptly the indications of returning health
sound sleep, quiet nerves, hopo and ambition. Dr. Greene's treatment is tho
quickest and surest road to health. Many years of constant experience with
human ills, nnd a success greater than that of any other physician, should
glvo confidence to every sufferer who needs advice and help, und who read
these words of comfort and hope.
DR. GREENE OFFERS FREE ADVICE.
Are you bowed down with despair because of ill-health ? Aro your days
passed in misery and your nights in torture? Docs dnrkness surrouifd your
pathway? Are you without hope of recovery, and wishing for death to relievo
you ? Aro you tempted to take the fatal step of ending your suffering and
mental anguish with a violent hand? Cheer un, thero is certain help for you,
prompt and kindly. Consult Dr. Greene. Call, if you can, at his olllce, 85
West 14th Street, New York City. If you can't call, you can write ull about)
your case and in either event you will receive his advice free of charge.
