This is the way the Sussex
COuntiGR talks: "Now that election is
over, don't slight your subscriptions.
If you live a distance from our Office
and cannot reach US, just put a dollar
bill in an envelope and send it to US,
we need it badly, and in fact, must
have it,"
John Maxwell, father of Robert
Maxwell, who was killed By a street
car in Wilmington on Columbus Day,
instituted suit against the Wilmington
City Railway Company, asking SlO,-
600 damages for the death of his son.

Cooper as counsel, aud expects to
prove that his sons death was due to
carelessness of the mOterman and con-
ductor of the car.

Now that the election is over and
the people have relapsed into their
normal condition they are beginning
to look forward to the coming of the
Legislature. A winter spent in Dover
society is delightful under the most
ordinary circumstances, but it is espe
cially so IN a legislative winter. So
ciety is then at its best and the season
is one round of gayety and social en-
tertainment.
Many people suffer for years from
troublesome and repulsive sores, boils
and eruptions, without ever testing the
marvellous curative properties of
Ayers Sarsaparilla. The experiment
is certainly worth trying. Be sure
you get Ayers Ssrsaparilla and no
other.
The oldest resident of Pea Patch is
| land, in Delaware bay, the government
reservation upon which Fort Delaware
stands, has just died after having lived
! forty years at the fort. His name was
! John Madden, and his wife, who still
| lives at the dismantled fortress, is re-
membered with affection by hundreds
| of confederate prisoners as the kindly
matron of the post hospital during the
civil war.-NelU Castle Herald.
Miss Mary Pennington of Odessa
was thrown from a horse on Wednes-
day evening aud received severe
bruises about the shoulders. At the
time of the accident she felt the horse
staggering under her and prepared to
lump from the saddle, but before she
could do so she was thrown violently
to the ground When she had re-
gained her feet and was able to look
for the horse she found him dying of
heart disease. The horse was a valua-
BILE one belonging to her father.
One evening last week, one of the
valves on the tugboat Aurelia at Mil
ford was left open by its intoxicated
owner and she soon filled with water
and Hoped over, owner and all. The
man was fshed out, but tho boat is
still on the bottom half filed with
water. She is now in a dilapidated
condition and will be unfit for use this
winter In righting the boat her
house was almost torn off. She was
used in towing vessels up and down
the Misspillion aud will be greatly
missed.
The smallest "cat- boiP' is large
enough to show that the blood needs
purifying-a warning, which, if un-
needed, may result, not in more boils,
but in something very much worse.
Avert this danger in time by the use
of Ayers Sarsaparilla. Cured others,
will cure you.
