Take care of the stomach and the

pie only realized the soundness of that
statement the majority might live to a
good old age like Moses, "the eye un-

1t is in tho stomach that the blood is
made. 1t is from the stomach that
nourishment is dispensed to nerve and
muscle. II the stomach is weak" it
can't do its whole work for each part
of the body. If it is diseased the
disease will faint the nourishment
which is distributed, and SO spread
disease throughout the body. 1t was
tho realization of the Importance of
tie stomach as the very center of health
and tho common source of disease,
which led DIR. Pierce TO prepare his
"Golden Medical Discovery" "Di-
seases which originate in the stomach
must be cured through the stomach. -
Tho soundness of this theory is proved
every day by cures OF diseased
organs, heart, liver, lungs, blood, by
the use of the Discovery" which is

the Union Republicans 10 make him
their candidate for State treasurer, as

thus secuEe to him the support of both

The Willingness of william Michael.

In letter to Congressman j. W.
Babcock, chairman of the Republican
Congressional Campaign Committee,
United States District Attorney Will
liam Michael Byrno makes plain not
only his willingness, but his evident
anxiety, TO receive the nomination for
Congress of the Union Republican
party of Delaware. 1t is apparent that
the tender of the nomination by Boss
Addicks has stirred his vanity deeply,
and that he would be glad to accept
the empty honor, Notwithstanding it
is apparent to everybody else that the
nomination by the Union Republicans
Of a candidate for Congress in opposi-
sion to DR.. Ball would make the cleo
tion Of the Democratic candidate an
absolute certainty.
Mr. Byrne advances as the require.
ment OF Union Republican support Of
DR. Ball that the latter shall give
satisfactory assurance" to the Union
Republicans that il elected to Congress
he will represent the whole of the
Republican party which merely
means that he must pledge himself to
aid in the election of Addicks to the
Senate, which he will never do. There.
fore, the Union Republicans, unless
they surrender and turn in for DIR.
Balls election, will nominate a oandi
date Of their own, and that candidate,
by the grace of Boss Addioks, will bs

signally honored him by official dis
tinction. Whether he will resign tn
office of district attorney upon accept
ing Boss Addicks' nomination for Con
gress he does not say.
Most refreshing is the confident as
surance contained in the closin
sentence of Mr.. Byrne's letter, il
which he says: If am nominated b
the Union Republicans will fight tn
tight to a finish, and the Republican
Of Delaware will see to it that 1 wi
the battle. !" What an astonishin
political prediction: That the Repuh
licans of Delaware can divide thei
votes between Dr. Ball and Williar
Michael Byrne for Representative i
uongress and still elect Mr. Byrne
If Mr.. Byrne does not know that sue
division would surely result in I'll
election Of tho Democratic candidate
shen he does not know the alphabet
practical politics.
Mr. Byrne may fight the fight to
finishp if he sees fit. But in sue
syent, his finish will be plainly visib
to the public eye.

Too Good for AIS Company.

an interesting pOilblCdi lnclubnb III
Sussex county is revealed by the fol-
lowing editorial from the Lewes Pilot
Tine turning down of William P.
Nichols by the Union Republican
County Convention at Georgetown, last
Tuesday, came as surprise for there
was general impression that Mr..
Nichols would be renominated. He
has mado faithful and efficient men,
Der of the Levy Court, and his services
have been such that the people will
hereafter expect more than ordinary
results from the incumbent of this
office.
The fact that Mr.. Nichols was
faithful and efficient member of the
Levy Court was no doubt what in
duced the powers that be- in the
Union Republican organization of
Sussex county to refuse him renomi-
nation. Such men are not considered
right and proper opponents of Addicks
Republicanism. Addioks Republican
politics and faithful public service are
held to be incompatible, and ara so.
| When a man elected to Office by
Union Republicans faithfully serves
the people instead of his party, he is
looked upon as being recreant to the
party, and accordingly is set aside at
the expiration of his term, unless the
voters OF his district revolt. On the
other hand, the man go elected who is
blindly faithful to the party and the
party's boss is held up as model of
what a Union Republican officeholder
should be, and the boss selects him
for further honors. This was the case
with State Senator S. John Abbott OF
the Fifth district of Kent county, but
the voters rebelied at Boss Addicks'
orders, and refused to renominate
Abbott for the Office.
In the case alluded to by the Lewes
Pilot, however, iJ was the faithful
official who was denied denomination.
But both instances tend to show the
true relation of Addicks Republicanisn
to the public service.
The Milford Chronicle, Addicks' Re
publican organ, asserts that tn,
primary contests OF tho Union Republi
cans in Kent and Sussex COUNTIES
"havs loft no eart-burnings. Th,
contest that deprived Boss Addicks
4 faithful henchman, State Senator S
John Abbott, of denomination, ha
caused the hcrctst kind OF burnin,
in tho heart of Boss Addicks. Instea,
Of aiding in the election of man upol

J. must aid in tho election of candidat

Bridal superstitions.

Many and curious are the customs
regarding brides. In Switzerland the
bride on her wedding day will permit
no ohe, not even her parents. to kiss
her upon the lips. In parts Of rural
England the cook pours hot water over
the threshold after the bridal couple
have gone in order to keep 1t warm for
another bride, says the London Globe.
The pretty custom of throwing the
slipper originated in France. An old
woman, seeing the carriage of her
young king, Louis NIL, passing on
the way from church, where he had
just been married. took off her shoe
and, fiinging it at his coach. cried out,
"'Tis all / have, your majesty, but
may the blessings of God go with it"
There is an old superstition In Ger
many against marriages in May. A ia
vorite wedding day in Scotland is Dec.
81, so that the young couple can leave
their old life with the old year and be-
gin their married life with the new
one The Italians permit no wedding
gifts that are sharp or pointed, con-
nected with which practice is our SUI
perstition that the gift of knife sew
ers friendship.
