Do Not Let Disease Find Sinecure
in You,

Away back, in the good old days of
our grandmothers, when the systnn
needed cleansing, and the blood en-
riching, and the physical organization
toning up, it was our grandmother's
habit to dose us with "sulphur and
molasses, tincture of Ihubald, "salts
and sena, y "extract Of dandeion,n and
herb tea
These proved good remedies SO far as
they Went, and doubtless prevented
many serious sickness,
But science has improved upon all
this.
Other times, other men, other days,
other remedies. The world advances.

Medical science goes forward too,

PUSH CART MEMBERS.
Eight Of Them Fined in the Police
Court Today.


Eight stalwart young men. only one of
whom was able to speak English. stood in
a row in Judge Millers court this morning.
They are engaged in the sale Of bananas,
peanuts, cheap candy and other articles,
and most of them do business in the VI
cinity of Pennsylvania avenue and 7th
street. Last night there were nearly two
dozen Of these push cart merchants about
the vicinity mentioned, when the officers OF
the nrst made wholesale raid. Those who
were in court this morning were the unfor-
as did many Of their fellow countrymen.
The charge against the defendants was
0Dstructing the street. Witnesses for the
District stated that complaints had been
made against these men, one complaint
coming from the street sweepers, who
were unable to sweep the street without
trouble. Judge Miller said that the Dis
trict licensed these men and derived con-
siderable revenue from them. 1t was nat
ural, the judge said that they should go to
the business center to sell their goods. 1t
ON the commons where their bananas will
rot and spoil. and at the same time they
must not Obstruct the streets. Ladies In
vehicles will stop in front Of a store and
leave their vehicle while they go into forty
stores looking for a bonnet" said the judge.
THE leaving of a carriage in this way Is
perhaps as much Of an obstruction as that
of the push cart men, but 1t Is a different
kind Of an obstruction" -.--e-
Judge Miller said he thought these deal
ers should be regulated as they are in other
cities. The defendants were fined 81 each
and the judge told them the next time they
would have to pay larger fine.

ALEXANDRIA.


The Prospects of Next Week.
Next week promises to be quite an inter
esting one for Alexandria. On Tuesday
evening the city council will meet. and it
is probable will act upon the bill creating
city engineer. This will be the beginning
of comprehensive system OF local improve
ments in Alexandria. The proposal is that
the city shall be improved first on the
map; that is, that the street lines, grades
and character Of pavements for each street
within the city limits shall be determined
and mapped out, so that any building here
after erected shall have it's lines ana the
direction of it's water dow fully settled.
The question Of expense will be an after
consideration. There are many citizens who
think that until the work which the city
engineer shall do is determined 1t Will be
useless to appoint that officer as they say
1t is not worth while to pay an officer 5000
a. year to spend 5000 in improvements
The council will also probably increase the
salary OF policemen to $50 per month Inc
corporation court will begin the trial Of the
Meade murder case and the democrats will
probably get out Of the Cog which now en-
velops their action in regard to candi-
date to the legislature. This will crowd
Alexandria for one week.
Corporation Court.
The corporation court is still in session.
The suit of the Deis Manufacturing Com
pany VS.. the Mt. Vernon Insurance Com
pany has been argued to Judge Norton on
demurrer. The question at issue in the case
Is whether the fire insurance on the Deis
building had been completed when the fire
occurred there last winter. On the probate
side the will Of c. W. Taylor has been pro-
bated with Mrs. A. N. Taylor as executrix.
EfIt NOtea
The unterrif1ed democracy Of Alexandria
have not taken of their war paint because
OF the decision Of the state democratic COM
mittee that Mr.. Bendheim Is the regular
nominee. Mr.. Bendheim still holds the fort
ana reinforced by the action of the state
committee, declines to surrender hut there
Is truce just now and an arrangement
may be agreed upon.
1t Is expected that several popuIist r,em-
oers OF Congress will address the people Of
Alexandria next Saturday evening
Mr.. Chas Thompson has withdrawn from
the contest for the democratic nomination
as candidate for the house OF delegates
An endeavor will be made to secure an
IRON bridge In place Of the old wooden
prloge which, for nearly century past
mas spanned Hunting creek, near the south
end OF Patrick street extended.
