How to Look Good

Good looks are really more
than skin deep, depending entirely
on healthy condition of all the
vital organs. Ii the liver is in
active you have a bilious look: if
your stomach is dioordered you
have a dyspeptic look; if 20, r
kidneys are affected you have a
pinched look. Secure good
health and you will surely have
good looks. "ELectrIc BitterS"
is a good Alternative and tonic.
Acts directly on the stomach,
liver and kidneys, purIfies the
blood, cures pimples, blotches
and boils, and gives a good COM
p.exion. Every bottle guaran-
teed. Sold at the PostofIice
drug store. Fifty cents per
bottle.

DANGER IN SODA
Serious Results Sometimes Follow It's
Excessive Use


Excessive Use
Common soda is all right in its
place and Indispensable in the
kitchen and for cooking and wash
ing purposes, but it was never
intended for a medicine, and peo-
pie who use it as such will some
day regret it.
We refer to the common use OF
soda to relieve heartburn or sour
stomach, d habit which thousands
of people practice almost daily,
and one which is fraught with
danger; moreover the soda only
gives temporary relief and IN the
end the stomach trouble gets
worse and worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical
irrItant to the walls of the stom-
ach and bowels and cases are on
record where it accumulated in
the lnteStlnes, causing death by
inflammation or peritonitis.
DR.. Iarlandson recommends as
the safest and Surest cure for sour
stomach acid dyspepsia) an ex-
ceIlent prepa ration sold by drug
giStS under the name Of Stuart'S :
Dyspepsia Tablets. These th hblets
are large 20 grain lCZ -ngeS, very
pleasant TO taste and contain the
natural acids, pnpt ones and di-
geStlVe elements eSSentia to good
digestion, and when taken after
meals they q geSt the food per-
fectIy and promptly V before it has
time to frInent, sour and poison
TN" blood and nervous SyS1eu..
DR.. Wu"rth states that he in
variab'y uses StuarI's Dyspepsia
Tablets IN ali cases Of stomach
engagements and finds them a
tF' OdiH cure IOU only LOT sour
stomach, but by promptly digest
ing the food they create healthy
appetite, increase fish and
strenGt ben the ;it ton Of the heart
and liver. They are not a cathar-
tic, but intended only for stOm-
ach diseases and weakness and
will be found reliable in any stom-
ach trouble except cancer of the
stomach.

prpsia Tablets at soc per pack

NO CONDITIONAL PROVISION FOR

There Is quite a etir in the three
counties over the matter OF the shriev-
atty succession. II is understood that
Hon. John b. Pennington and a promi-
nent Wilmington attorney have advised
Sheriff Luther Shaw. OF Kent county
that the new Constitution makes no
provision for the shrievalty succession
and that he can, II he so desires, hold
the Office for two years longer, as ha
is bonded and his bondsmen are liable
for two years. II is understood that he
says that he has had the Office two
terms and does not desire to hold It
any longer: az the same time, be pro
poses TO protect his sureties. A friend
OF John B. Wharton. sherif-eiect OF
Kent county. was told by Walter II,
Hayes to tell Wharton to bond a0
quickly as possible.
Should the Kent county contention
hold good II will also affect New Cas-
