Is intended to nourish and sustain us, but
it must be digested and assimilated before
it can do this. In other words, the nourisb-
ment contained in food must be separated
by the digestive organs from the waste
to all parts of the body. We believe the
reason for the great benefit which SO many
people derive from Hoods Sarsaparila lies
In the fact that this medicine gives good
digestion and maks pure, rich blood. 1t
restores the functions of those organs which
convert food into nuurishment that gives
strength to nerves and muscles. 1t also
cures dyspepsia, scrofua, salt rheurii, boils,
sores, pimples and eruptions. catarrh, rheu-
matism and all diseases that have their
origin in impure blood.

PARK BOARD MEETING.
Matter of improvements for the Next Tw,
EHEa Years Discussed.

Matter of improvements for the Next Two
~ Years Discussed.
The Board of Park Commissioners
held special meeting last Saturday
night TO discuss the matter of improve
ments during the next two years. The
members present were President Will
liam NJ. Candy, Secretary II. A. Leisen,
William p. Bancroft, Samuel Bancroft,
Jr., j. Newlin Gawthiop, JOSEPH L.
Carpenter, Jr., Dennis j. Mention,
Samuel II. Baynard, George s. Oapelle.
John M. Rogers and President OF City
Council William s. Alexander,
All OF the recommendation of Super
intendent LeiseD and the executive
committee were considered, and it was
finally decided that about $50, 600 will
be required for work which should be
done without fail during the time
specified, and the Legislature will prob
ably be asked for authority to borrow
that much. The regular annual appro-
priation is only s15, 600, which is nearly
all consumed in regular expenses.
Mr.. Carpenter thought the two
bridges, one oyer Clayton street and the
other across the Brandywine not neces-
sary at present.
Samuel Bancroft, Jr., regarded the
bridge across Clayton strest, on
Shalloross avenue, as one of the
first thiugs that should be done.
The bridge across the Brandywine, he
thought should he either city or a
county bridge, although its location
should be determined by the Park Com
mission. but this bridge is not press
irg matter and can wait.
It was the opinion Of the meeting
that the Street and Sewer Department
should join with the Park Commission
in the construction of the bride across
Clayton street.
President Candy was OF the opinion
that the work should be extended over
a period of five years at an expenditure
of $50, 000 year. He said the matter
of Improvement is thing not to be
sneered at; that he felt pride III the
city Of Wilmington and wished it I'M
derstood that he is strongly in favor of
the plan for improvements.
The estimate OF the executive COM
mittee was taken under consideration
by the board as whole and every item
game over Everything regarded as not
absolutely necessary at the present time
was stricken out. Finally the estimate
without the item Of S32, 100 for the pur-
chase of land, was cut down to SAG, 655.
BY common consent the largest item in
the estimate, that Of $40, 600 for a bridge
across the creek at Clayton street, was
stricken out.
Mr.. Alexander expressed himself as
not in favor of increasing the oity's
debt until some means have been dis
covered to increase the revenue. In
this connection he thought two-thirds
of the receipts for liquor licenses should
be used for the benefit of the city.
This revenue amounts to s92, 600 an
nually. Mr.. Alexander objects to any
further increase in the tax rate on real
estate.
The board adjourned to meet next
Saturday evening at Z. 45 O'Clock.

done. The present school building is
entirely inadequate and the new struct-
