The Outlook for the Important Tomato

CHEsTERTowE, Md, Aug. 4-The

ments accordingly, but. with the crops
already reduced and still no prospects
for rain, it is impossible to foretell the
extent Of the loss born TO farmers and

imperfect, ana every day the situation
must become more serious The tomato

NEW CASTLE. Aug 4-Referring to the
collection of the city taxes for 1894,
which Is now going on Fl lively rate,
and with much better success than last
year, the County Herald, New Castles
local paper, says;
Collector Of taxes, Patrick McGrory, is
making a very active effort to replenlsh
the treasures Of the city aud Board of
Education with money due from taxes.
He finds the spirit OF the taxpayers
willing, but ia a large number of in
stances the pooket-book is very un.
plethoric The total Of taxable city
property amounts TO 81 457, 1l9, of which
90 per cent. (S2 Ola 20 is for road and
streets; 30 per cent. "a 662 7S) is for
city purposes and "A per cent. (S6.2I12)
for.public schools
''rhe largest taxpayers are the Morris
Tasker q Co, and the p, w. & b. Rail.
road Company, the former paying about
81, 600 and the latter trids over 1926
AT FIRST thought one would suppose
that, judging from the amount received
annually for roads and streets, we ought
to have better passage ways through our
town instead Of the rough field stones
which jolt and tear the vehicles to
pieses. But there are many loop holes
for the money"

GIRLS EARNING A LIVING.

OF working GIrls-must Keep Neat and

Compound.
One, two, three, four crisp dollar bills

behind counters. or in some factory.
Imagine 1t your own daughter.
It shocks one to think that lace and
ribbons come 80 dear and human life so
cheap
Trying to earn a living at this rate
soon brings out ali the worl ing girls
womanly resources to keep neatly
dressed, pleasant faced and well Few
days can be spared for sickness and
strength must not flag till past closing
time
The best friend the working girl has
ever had Is Paines celery compound. II
keeps her well and full of strength and
courage lt restores vitality TO tired
nerves; 1t feeds every tissue Of the body
when unusual waste has reduced the
weight and strength of the body, as Is
frequently the case In the heated season
1t gives new appetite, and keeps every
part of the body, nerves and blood so
well nourished that the nervous, ex-
hausted, tired, rundown" feeling from
worry and hard work soon disappear.
In headaches, the head is not alone
the offending part. The brain is the
centre of the great nervous system, and
there Is a continual Communication from
every part of the body to IT, Hence u
arrangement of the stomach, liver, or
kidneys produces headaches, though the
head be in healthy condition
Nervous headache, neural gia, rheuma
tism. and heart troubles are due TO blood
insufficient in quantity and lacking in
richness Worry and long hours of un-
interrupted work, especially in the sum
mer exhaust the nervous substance as
surely as walking exhausts the muscles
To quickly furnish fresh and abundant
supply Of nutriment for every tissue Of
the BODY is the purpose for which Paine's
celery compound was first prepared. This
rapid production of fresh nervous energy
and pure blood wBs the one endeavor of
Prof. Edward E Phelps long study of
the causes Of nervous exhaustion. The
result OF his life work was Paine's celery
compound, that remarkable remedy that
permanently and spec Oily cures diseases

the greatest nerve regulator and blood
purifier Of this present century.
