Did your grocer ever tell you when
you ordered Clifton" -four that he
had something just as good?" Do
you know why he tells you this? 1t is
because he buys some inferior flour for
less money and is trying to work this
off on you and get few cents more
profit on it. This is a perfectly legiti-
mate thing for the grocer to do, but
you ought to see that you get the best

on deck, the woman quietly said
to her NEIL
"Now you jest watch me and do
as l do, and we'll give "em such a
quiltin' bee as they never heard
OF before. Now altogether"
The cutter was only 10 feet
away and was prepared to throw
a grapple aboard when Nancy
Jones tossed her snuff into the air
and dropped to the deck, and her
example was followed by the
others. The wind carried every
last pinch Of that strong snuff
across the space to the cutter and
it may be said that she was raked
from stem to stem and from s tar
board to port. In an instant every
man on the Englishman's deck
was blinded, coughing sneezing,
and as helpless as if D.-...,l hand
and foot.
The crew of the Nancy Jones
could have captured the whole
outfit without striking a blow, but
that had not been included in
Nancy's plan. Urged on by Cap
tain Israel, they swung her yards
and got her on her course, and
the breeze freshened, as if in SYM
pathy with her efforts. She was
not pursued however. Indeed the
officers and men of the cutter were
calling out to her for relief, and it
was probably a full hour before
any one of them could see a dis
tance OF 90 feet over the rail.
In due time and without meet.
ing with further adventure the
Nancy Jones arrived at her home
port, and the tale of the snuff was
soon told. If Nancy had found
herself a heroine in the eyes eff
the crew, she was now in danger
of being made to believe that she
was the vsritable goddess of lib
erty. She wouldn't have It how
ever.
"La, me! but what is al this

DEMOCRATIC
CONVENTION,

The Democratic County Executive
Committee will hold a meeting at 2
O'Clock tomorrow afternoon at the
rooms of the Young Mems Demo-
cratic Club. This will be the first
meeting of the Committee since
Chairman Wooley's return. Plans
will be formulated for electing dele
gates to the State Convention. At
this meeting theadvisability of nam
ing new day for the State Conven-
ton and of issuing a new call will
likely lbe discussed The County
Committee has no authority in such
matters any more than it will noti-
fy the State Committee is best for
the county If the committee
thinks that the date of the conven.
ton should be changed, meeting
OF the County Committee will be
called for the near future. Even
should this be done, from present
Indications the date already set will
not be changed as Kent and Sussex
counties have q majority in the
'tRiC SplllIlllult5 LILO lOWbI COUNTIES
have been wanting an early conven.
ton for number of years.
The convention has been set for
September 29th and a call issued for
that day.
Slnce the present Primary cleo.
ton Law was passed in 1897, the
Conventions have been held the mid.
die Of August. The present trouble
is caused from the fact that many
people contend that the Convention
under the laws, governing the Prl.
mary election has to be held after
tie three registration days which Is
the latter part Of August and the
the first 0! September.
The date set July 2Olh, is even
before the first registration day. The
tw) lower counties have no primary
election law and therefor they would
like to have tie convention early and
II an effort is now make 10 change
the date, will argue that they have
made all arrangements for an early
convention.

NEW LIGHTS
SATISFACTORY,

That the installation of Welsbach
lights in the Federal building was a
wise move is borne out by the gen
e;al satisfaction given to the public
and the night force at the post of.
flee. On Saturday night and last
night when thesky was cloudy much
favorable comment was heard about
the lights. The clock dial was bright
er than ever and could be seen two
squares further away than formerly
when the clock tower was lighted
by electricity. In the main CORR.
at the post Office the new lights
were actuallya wonder and patrons
stood and gazed in astonishment.
Then they voiced the sentiment
that Custodian Houston did the
proper thing to put gas for lighting
purpose in the building.
The night clerks say that the gas
lights are a wonderful improvement
over the electric lights. As soon as
convenient and possible the lights
will be installed in the rooms in the
upper stories of the building.
The glow from the new lamps is
very bright.
