sore Throat.

The milder forms of sore throat are
apt to be very common in the spring,
because of the frequent changes Of
the weather. sharp and chilly at
tlmes, with shrill north winds and
Camp, and relaxing again with soft
SHOWS. The sudden changes also
from a brisk outdoor air to stove.
heated rooms are also pretty likely to
produce irritations of the throat
mem branes which. without being
positively dangerous, may become SC
by neglect, and are in any case I'M
pleasant enoNgh to make a prompt
remedy very desirable.
For these cases, where no seyerer
trouble is at the foundation. there
are one " two remedies usually at
hand and generally effective, Where
the throat trouble arises from a COM
mon cold, such as may readily develop
into quinsy, the simplest remedy lis
a gargle made OF chlorate of potash
and cold water. There is nc danger
of using too much potash in this
form, as chlorate Of potash is a drug
which makes what chemists call a
saturated solution. . Where the
throatis very much irritated, the
gargle should be used at least once an
hour, or may be alternated with CID
fashioned salt and pepper gargle.
The familiar household rule for the
latter is two teaspoofuls of fine salt,
two tablespoonfuls of vinegar, ana half
a teaspoonful cayenne pepper, all dis
solved in a quart of boiling water.
1t is good plan to give some SIM
pie home remedies which will pro-
duce Precipitation, and also to keep
the patient indoors for several days.
AS soon as such cold is broken up a
good tonic should be obtained from
the family physician. All colds are
now believed to come from a degen
Grated condition of the system, which
in itself shows the need of tonic =

Floral Wedding Effects.

The flowers and the dresses Of the
bridesmaids should convey an i'm
preston of one dainty color, what
ever that may be, writers Schuyler
Mathews in "For a Home Wedding
in the Ladies Home Journal. Light
has great deal to do with color
effect. In proof OF this look at a
group Of Magma Charta roses in diff
fuse daylight, and then note the
startling effect Of the same group
when placed Immediately beneath
artificial light. The stronger the
light The brighter the rose; so l
would place, where opportunity
afforded, silver candlestick near a
group of roses. We should never, of
course, attempt things like those
floral pieces" consisting of solid
mass OF fowers) which too often
come from the hand Of the florist.
A mass of pink roses jammed to-
gether fails to reveal the lovely form
of the rose itself, unless the pink
color is broken by the green LEAKAGE.
Cast aside anything or everything
which is customary, if it interferes
with the free exercise of simple and
natural decorative ideas. 1t is not
in good taste to scatter flowers Law
ishly over handsome damask table,
cloth. Fashion and art have moth.
ing in common with each other.
The dinner-table may be decorated,
but the tablecloth never. A spray
of blossoms may lie on the cloth,
but the cloth completely hidden by
flowers is an exhibition Of bad taste
or worse, vulgarity. The cloth is
primarily useful, ~but it is also I'M
Questionably decorative and we
should never decorate decoration.
Consistency must be our rule OF
action, or we should leave art alone.

WITH biting sarcasm which those
familiar with the facts will appreciate
the New York Times says;
When Richard w. Thompson, of Terre
Haute, Ind, retired from the busy world
and began his history Of the protective
tariff In this country, being an enthusi-
astic advocate Of McKinleyism, he sup
posed, we presume, that the history Of
the Panama Canal Company was closed.
There was no longer any work for his
American Committee" to do, and there
seemed TO be no indication Of any up
heaval In Paris or elsewhere that would
disturb him In the seclusion of his library.
he has been rudely awakened from his
dream Of peace and security, and now he
hears loud calls from all parts of the
country for the explanations which be
can give so easily, but which, up TO this
time he has preferred to withhold from
the public. We hear no intimation that
he viii consent to show how he used
that comfortable sum Of 81, 400, 900. II
may be, however, that he Is writing the
interesting history Of the expenditure
for publication, and that he will soon be

thrifty man, and no one expects that nc
can be induced TO tell his story without
compensation.
For many years Mr. Thompson enjoy
ed salary of $s5,0O0 per year as the
president Of the committee having tn,
supervision Of the expenditure Of large
sum Of money belonging to the Panama
Canal Company. The money has beer
expended and Mr.. Thompson hesltates
doubts and fails to tell how 1t was ex
pended in spite Of the fact Of the great

progress Of exposure in France. Mr.
Thompson is certainly competent L

traps were arranged under this beam,
four and ahalf each, on each of which
two men were to stand, but the release

Descendants OF Cannibsis.
An Eastern Shore legend is that early
in the present century o slave ship cast
anchor in the upper waters OF the Nanti-
coke river, with large load of negroes
which had been captured in the interior
Of Africa. They we're said to have been
members Of tribe of cannibals, very
fierce and blood-thirsty, and though they
were sold and scattered among the farm
ers and planters in the upper counties Of
the Peninsula, as long as any of the
original cargo lived, they were noted for
their savage instinct and fierce disposi-
tions. To this day the descendants of
the African cannibals in all parts Of the
Eastern Shore, are noted for their de-
easing superstitions. They appear in
capable of human feeling, and on the
slightest prOvocation, the old blood
thirstiness and savagery come TO the
surface, as in the case of the murder Of
DR.. Hill.
The Public FOrewarned.
Sheriff Plummers official warning to
the public which was posted up all over
town last night was as follows:

tions Of this state. and from the state OF
Delaware, intend coming to the Jail OF
this county on the 10th inst, for the
purpose of making the execution of the

The law of this state requires executions
to be private. The public cannot view
the execution. The law commands me

see that the execution is witnessed only

persons not summoned to remain away

II shall summon two hundred discreet
and determined citizens of the county
who will be prepared to resist any anc

evening, unenlivened by a single Incl
dent. The annual reports of the Board
Of Health, Chief Engineer and Survey

serious consideration Of milk inspection,
the appointment of two additional
officers and asks that the board be EN-.
powered TO make the placing of sewers

Of the community might require an
amount of money larger than the board s

Is expected to manifest toward Tammany

There is no doubt that Mr.. Cleveland

able man than Mr.. Murphy. but what his
opinions and Intentions are now he
has not stated and nobody has the right
OF the privilege to state them for him.

have acted very curiously if they expect

from Cleveland. They seem to think
they possess the power used, in
its most offensive sense, to compel Cleve
lands favor. With small men in small
affairs Senator Hill uses caution and an
admirable hnesse that is as wonderful as
it has been successful. In large affairs
