WEDNESDAY. JAN. 4. 1899.

We heartily congratulate Senator
Pyle on his action in giving notice Of
an act designed to force the Board Of
Water Commissioners OF this city to
reduce its charges for water. He is a
wilmington man and a property own
er and doubtless appreciates the in
justice Of the present system which
cornpeis consumers 10 pay over twice
ns much as they should, and permits
the surplus to be turned over to the
general fund. He is a Democrat, and
City Council is Democratic, but we
trust that this viii not deter him from
doing his full duty in the matter. The
question is in no sense a partisan one.
II affects the pockets OF every owner Of
improved property, no matter whether
he be Democrat or Republican. City
Council has no right to expect that the
water consumers shall pay more than
twice as much as they should for
water sn order that it may keep down
the rate on the general levy. Senator
Knox, and all others in the Whining
ton legislative delegation should assist
Senator Pyle in his present efforts.
Their constituents are just as much
interested as his are and they can re-
quire a cut OF fifty per cent in the
water rates and still leave the depart
ment enough money and $4,000 for an
emergency fund. The Water Commits
sionens cannot 80 to Dover and excuse
themselves for collecting si64,0O0 10
meet an expense OF but about $4,000,
and applying $50, 900 10 purposes which
have nothing to do with the Water
Department Neither can City Council
afford to defend such a system on the
eve OF a municipal election. The peo-
pie viii no longer stand such extortlon
and mlsapplicatlon.

There is a striking contrast between
the conduct OF the Democratic State
Senate ana that Of the Republican and
Union Republican House OF Represen-
tatiyes. The former is completely or
ganized and transacting It's business In
a dignihed manner, with Hon. Charles
II. Salmons, a capable man, at ite
head The latter body is engaged in a
shameful wrangie In which the Regu.
lar Republicans are fighting for prin-
ciple and the Union Republicans for
spolls, with the United States senator
ship for Aldicks as one OF them. II ie
time fer the Democratic members Of
the House to express to the people
their anxiety to perform their proper
functions and their desire to rebuke
Addickeism by assisting the Regular
Republicans To organize the House
from the speaker down to page, moi
making any deal, but merely voting in
support OF the Regular Republican
nominees. II would be good politics
and the party would justify them in
their action.

IMAGINARY WOES
The Worries and Anxieties of Life Are
often Entirely without
Cause.

Those who have giveH most thought
end study TO the subject concur in the
testimony that It = not the work OF
brain OF body that kills, but the ac-
companying worries and anxieties,
combined with unphysiological habits
Of life, that undermine the sensitive
nervous system and ruin the constitll-
tion. And here an aggrayating fact
comes in-in nine cases out Of ten tho
disquietlng thoughts and carking cares
which are harbored and brooded over
are entirely unnecessary and frequent
ly imaginary. There are numberlcss
kinds of worry. and many people seem
born with predisposition to it. When
we add TO this hereditary diathesis the
ambitions and competitions for display,
for position the multiplication of in
dividual wants and the demands of an
increasingly complex home and society
life, we cannot much wonder that this
iiend carries forebodings and restless
ness into the home circle, into places
of business and pleasure, and robs the
spirit of contentment, the mind Of
peace. and the body of health. When
health is gone, the portals are opened
yet wider to the entrance and the sway
of real and imaginary anXieties, cares
and ills. Under their influence the
judgment often becomes warped, the
will becomes weakened. the intellect
clouded, and the conscience morbid We
cannot, unfortunately, always control
the circumstances of our lives, and in
the experience of nearly all of lis thcrd
are conditions to be endured and cares
to be borne for which we are not re-
sponsible.-N. Y. Ledger.

"yNych" Hazel. Not witch Hazel


The correct name for hamamelis vir-
ginica is not witch hazel, but wych
hazel. Our plant has no connection
with the magic Of the water hunter.
The blackthorn of England, prunus
spinosa. was the word used in these
divinauons, or whatever these super
sutious practices may be termed. Hazel
lad a very wide meaning in the olden
times, and the elm, as well as the nut
only known as such, was hazel One Of
these elms, now known as ulmus Mon
tana. was the favorite wood for making
vychcs. or provision chests, and was
therefore known as the wych hazel.
Ir the present day it is the wych elm.
Our hamamelis received from the early
settlers the name of wych hazel from
the resemblance Of the leaves to those
of the wych hazel or elm of the old
world Language reformers imagining
that wych should be spelled witch are
responsible for the confusion. Wych
hazel is the correct term for our plant.
