THE BURIAL
OF FAUPERS
They Cannot Be Interred in
Shockoe or Riverview.
CITY ATTORNEY'S OPINION
He Finds, Afler Careful Examination,
That Such Action on the Part of
the City is Clearly
lllegal.
Clty Attorney Pollnrd has, atter inaturo
dellberation ahd miiiuto examlnatlon of
the law. reached a concluslon to tlio
effect that lt is lllegal for any person
or persons to enter a pauper in either
RIverview or Shockoc liill Cemeterles,
as a result of whlch the Council Com?
mltteo on Cemeterles will at Its next
meoting instruct tlie keepers of theso
two places to allow the burlal of no
pauper wlthin tlie rlot of ground oc-u
plod. ?
Mr. Pollard also holds tbat the com?
mlttee has no authorlty, under existlng
ordlnances, to walvo tlie charges for
burlal of persons wlio may dle ln charit
nble Instltutlons, as a conaequence of
whlch this practlce wlll al-io be pro
hiblted in tlie futuro.
For thu past several years nuinbers of
pauiiers have been interred in Rlvcfvlew
Cemetery, while many unfortunates dylng
ln charltable Instltutlons ha.o been burlod
free of cost, .thereby incrcasing ihe ex
peuses of tlie^cily *<o a markud degrec.
Somo llme* ago both questlons wero
xais.-d in the,Health Commlttee by Clerk
McDowell, wlth the result that Clty
Attorney Pollard wns called upon for
nn opinion. The niatter has since been
ln hls hands.
Early thls week, Clty Attorney Pollard
formulated hls vlew's ln regard to the
o,ucstionB, and at the next meoting of tho
commlttee hls opinion wlll be heard. lt
follows:
I am nnablo to flnd any provlslon ln
the ordlnances of tho clty authorlzlng or
pertnlttlng tlie burlal of paupers in ltlvcr.
.vlew Coractcry'
I do not thlnk tho cormnltteo has, un?
der exlstlng ordlnances, tlio right to
walvo usual charges for burlal of persons
who dlo ln eharltable Instltutlons in the

THE CHILDRIN ENJOY
Liifcout of tloora and out of tlie. gamcs which they play aud the enjoy
mctit whlch they rcccivc and tho cITorts which they make, comes tho
greater part of thnt hca'tliful dcvclopmetit whlch is so cssential to thelr
hnppincss when grown. When a laxative ls necded the remedy which ia
given to them to clcansc and swecten nnd strcngthen the intcrnal organs
on whlch it acts, should bc such as physiciahs would aanctlon, because its
compoticnt parts are known to be wliolesoinc nnd the remedy itsclf free from
every objectionablc quality. The one remedy which physiclans and pafcents,
well-informcd, npprove and recomnicnd and which the littlc ones tfiijoy,
because of its plcnsnnt flavor, its gcntle actlon and its bcneficial effects, is?
Syrup of Figs?and for the satnc reason it is the only laxativc which should
bc uscd by falhcrs and niothcrs., >
Syrup of Figs is the only remedy which ncts gently, pleasantly nnd
naturally without griping, irritaliitg, or nauscatiiig and which elennscs the
system cffcctually, without proditcing that constipntcd hablt whlch results
from the use of the old-time cathartica and modern imitations, and against
whlch tlio childrcn should be so careftilly guarded. If yott would liavc them
grow to niauhood and womanhood, strong, licalthy and happy, do not give
them medicincs, when niedicincs are not nceded, and when nature needs
assistance in the way of a laxativc, give them only the simple, plcasant and
gcntle?Syrup of Figs.
Its quality is due not only to the cxccllcnce of the combinatlon of the
laxativc principles of plants with plcasant aromatic syrups and juiccs, but
also to our original method of niaiiiifacture and as you value the health of
tlie littlc ones, do not accept any of the substittites which utiscrupulotis deal?
ers somctiines offer to incrense their profits. The genuinc article may bc
bought anywherc of all rcllabie druggists at fifty cents per bottle. Picase
