Wise Men Know

It's folly to build upon a poor
foundation. either in architecture
or in health. A foundation of
sand is insecure, and to deaden
symptoms by narcotics or nerve
compounds is equally dangerous
and deceptive. The true way to
build up health is to make your
blood pure, rich and nourishing
by taking Hoods Sarsaparilla.

1.-The most subtle and deceitful
hope which ever existed, and one
which wrecks the happiness of
many a young girls life writes
Dwight L. Moody, sis the com
mon delusion that woman can
best reform a man by marrying
him. 1t is a mystery to me how
people can be SO blinded to the
hundreds of cases in every COM
munity where tottering homes
have fallen and innocent lives
have been wrecked because some
younggirl has persisted in marry
ing scoundrel in the hope of
saving him. l have never known
such union, and have seen
hundreds of them, result in any
thing but sadness and disaster.
Let no young girl think that she
may be able to accomplish what
a loving mother or sympthetic
sisters have been unable to do.
Before there is any contract OF
marriage there should oe con
vincing proof that there has been
real and thorough regeneration. '

A report that the congregation and on

opinions regarding the holding Of regular
Methodist revival meetings, has met with
contradiction from the pastor Of the
church, Rev. q II, Hendricks, and q lead.
ing member Of the official board Of tho
church. Pastor Hendricks denied the re-
port by saying he had not heard any such
talk. Evangelist Walker had neither
heard Of any trouble. He found all labor
ing In the work and gratifled with Its re-
suits.
=. The trustee said: "The report should be
emphatioally denied. The very fact that
eight OF the nine meInbere Of the official
board Of the church to attend the services
every night is enough to convince one OF
the absurdity Of the report, II my one
was to make complaint to the X. II. Con.

The morning session Of yesterdays con-
stitutional convention was devoted to tho
consideration Of the report Of the commit
tee on elections. 1t is proposed to abolish
ASSESSMENTS and poll tax and to adopt

Pennsylvania. Also that an oath shall
be administered to any man whose vote
10 challenged, which provision is expected
TO put a stop to corruption and bribery.
Anything, almost, would be better than
the present assessment laws now in vogue
In our State. The manner of conducting
the elections is disgrace to Delawareans
and makes them hang thoir heads in shame
when away from home. 1t has become
anything but q credit to claim that you
hail from the Diamond State Tho man
ner Of conducting the last election has
been heralded all over the country, and t
taches no credit whatever to our law max
ers or the men who conducted this same
election. The gross frauds that were
winked at hardest seem impossible and
would not be given credit if they had not
come under the notice Of so many citiznus,
who cried out for shame on such dSrepu
table methods which enabled the Demo.
cratic party to keep in power. Anything,
good Lord would not DO any worse thun

hope the Constitutional Convention will
remedy.
