ilization and disinfection of second-hand material, feathers, and second-

proval and issue. Every person to whom, a permit has been issued, shall
keep such permit conspicuously posted in his office or place of business.
Refusal to display such permit in accordance with this Section 64 shall be
sufficient reason to revoke and forfeit the permit.

For all permits issued as required by any provision of this Section 64

ferred to in said Section 64), there shall at time of issue thereof, be paid by
the applicant to the Director of Health a fee of fifty dollars ($50. 00).

Nothing herein, shall prevent any person engaged in the making, remak-
ing, renovating or sale of any article herein described, which requires ster-
ilizing and disinfecting under the provisions hereof, from having such
sterilizing and disinfecting performed by any person to whom a permit for
such purposes has been issued, provided the number of the permit shall
appear in the statement on the tag attached to the article.

comfortable is made, remade, or renovated, or where materials for the here-
in named articles are prepared, or establishment where said articles are
offered for sale, or are in possession of any person with intent to sell, de-
liver, or consign them, or establishment where sterilizing and disinfecting
is performed, shall be subject to inspection by the Director of Health to
ascertain whether the materials and the finished articles herein enumerated
conform to the requirements of this Section 64.

(E). No person shall sell, lease, offer to sell or lease, or deliver or con-
sign in sale or lease, or have in his possession with intent to sell, lease, de-
liver, or consign in sale or lease, (a) any mattress, pillow, bolster, feather
bed or comfortable, made, remade, or renovated in violation of this Section
64; (b) any second-hand mattress, pillow, bolster, feather bed, or com-
fortable, unless, since last used, it has been thoroughly sterilized and dis-
infected by a reasonable process approved by the Director of Health.

(F). Each and every mattress or article covered by this Section 64,
other than a feather or down filled pillow, bolster, bed or comfortable, shall
bear securely attached thereto and visible on the outside covering a sub-
stantial cloth tag, upon which shall be plainly and indelibly stamped or
printed, in English, (a) a statement showing the kind of materials used in
filling said mattress or article and whether the materials used in filling are
wholly new or second-hand or partly second-hand; (b) the word "second-
hand" upon any article of which prior use has been made; (c) the number
