GOOD BOOST FOR
BROHNTOWN TEAM
A Supporter Would Like to
See Them Play For State
Championship

Sporting Editor The Evening Journal
Dear Sir: In my opinion Browntown
is the real champion baseball team of
wilmington They won the City
League pennant and as Wilmington
was also in this race they (X-Wil-
mington) have no more right to claim
the championship than Landlith.
Going farther down the State Dover
is down and out" Bridgeville having
given them the "leomn' for fair.
So it should appeal to all fair
minded persons that the championship
Of Delaware rests between Browntown
and Bridgeville. AS the season is
drawing to a close these two teams
should clash at once, II it is only for
one game or the champion OF Della
ware viii be unknown.
Yours truly,
w. j. A.

 The flight of wild birds during mi grating time against lighthouses is more like the action of the green bicy- clist who rides against q trolley car or wagon as if hypnotzed by 1t and in spite of his fears.
 Gorillas, it is said, delight in fire, drawing closer to the flames as the fire dies down and at last wading in the redhot ashes. apparently enchanted and not feeling the burning coals.

Queer Salt,

Tn Lapland they have no salt, and the bark of the fir tree is used as a substitute. The Lapps peel the ba,k from the trunk of the tree, carefully remove the epidermis and then divide the inner bark into quite number of very thin layers. During the brief but extremely hot Lapland summer the layers are exposed to the sun until thoroughly dried; then they are torn in- to narrow strips and placed in boxes made of fresh bark taken from other trees. Deep holes are then dug ill the sand. and the bark boxes are buried in them, where they are allowed to re- main for about three days. The second day fires are made over places where the boxes are buried and kept burning brskly for several hours. The heat penetrates deep into the sand turns the fir bark q deep red color and gives to 1t pleasing taste and OdOr. Finally the boxes are unearthed, the fir strips are pounded or ground into a coarse powder and the Lapps use it just as we do salt, only muck more sparingly, because it is so troublesome to pre- pare

COrsets and Comfort.

When a woman has to remove her corset to rest, something is the matter with it. There is a pinching that makes forgetfulness impossible, and when l find a woman addicted to the habit of removing her stays when safe ly intrenched within her chamber know her for a victim of fashion. She Is much more common than you may know. l never understood how any body could find life endurable when every day held a measure of torture, fully known and appreciated at it's real value beforehand. l am not all exponent of ugliness, but l dare be- lieve that it is possible to combine comfort and grace with the happiest results. 1 have seen it done, am sure.-Nilwaukee Wisconsin.

DRESS HINTS,

To take care of silk dresses properly they should never be brushed, but rub bed with soft piece of merino.
 White gloves cleaned promptly after each wearing will last indefinitely. If the stains are allowed to dry on they become permanent.
 Blue Things for the bureau drawers or shirt waist boxes in which you keep your prettiest blouses keep them more daintily white.
 Common seashore sand will greatly improve the appearance of old velvet and remove all the dust Sprinkle the velvet well with the fine sand and then brush until none remains, always brushing the pile the wrong way
 A bit of that canvas or, better still. a bit of stiff buckram will repair the worst ravages of a hatpin. Slip it un- der the torn place and take a few strong stitches to keep it firmly set and then adjust the trimming to GOV CT it.

SERVE MORE CURRENTS.
They Are Snid to Contain More Nutri-
 ment Than Lean Beef


 ment Than Lean Beef.
 Only few years ago nobody knew that there was any food value to the little dried so called Greek entrants. Since then food chemists have demon strated that there is far more nutrition in them than in lean beef. Sir Francis Laking, physician to King Edward, says that nutrition in white bread is greatly increased by them and that thirty parts of entrants should be add ed to seventy parts of dough. To add them to bread, wash dry well and mix with the four after sitting it with salt They also make a good winter substi- tute in all bread and batter recipes that call for fresh huckleberries. The best variety to get are the Zanti cur rants, which come from the island of Zanti. They are really not entrants. but are small variety of seedless grape.
 To use them with sour cream salt a cup of sour cream Put in a little less than you believe to be just enough soda to neutraliZe the acid Beat it until foamy. Sift a pint of flour with one cup of sugar and one teaspoonful of baking powder. Add one cup of dried entrants or fresh blueberrics and bake as muflins.-EXchange.

 Actual cases of face cream poison ing are by no means rare. The skin absorbs the rancid stuff, with all it's germs, and the latter pass slowly but surely into the blood. If there happens to be an abrasion of the skin where the stale cream is applied bad results are much more rapidly developed.

It is proposed to have the craft move out from shore at a cer- tain hour and be unapproachable dur ing the session except by boat. It would also be unique in that all mem bers would have to arrive on time and be obliged to remain until the meet i ings were at an end.

E .H.'.:'. NQNAe ...

The grand lodge of Indiana directed the grand secretary to procure an altar and suitable robes, to be used in the dedication of lodge halls, these to be loaned to lodges requiring their use for dedication purposes. This is an act worthy of emulation by every grand lodge, says the Independent Odd Eel low. A dedication is incomplete with out them, and few lodges care to go to the expense for articles that are only, as rule. used once in generation.

KNIGHTS OF PYTHlAS.
How the Grand Lodges Are Voting
 Pythian GIenninEs.

The Pythian Lodge Secret appears to be keeping tab on how the domains are voting on the pending amendments to the supreme constitution. It says: Out of fourteen states, whose vote we can verify by the grand lodge proceed ingS, three voted in favor and eleven against the eighteen year amendment to the supreme lodge constitution One voted in favor and thirteen voted against the proposition to permit grand lodges to fix the minimum membership fee. This does not look like getting the requisite vote in favor of either propo- sition."

Little Red Spots.

If you see tiny spot, bright red, that persists during many months and gets slightly larger, make up your mind to have it destroyed. If let alone it will enlarge and become great blemish. Any surgeon can, by the use of caustics or electrolysis, remove the spot in few minutes. These things are called "naevi," and they are maae up of dilated capillaries, neither ar teries nor veins, but the tiny vessels thst unite the two. :.>Y.

The ScaIp,

The cleaning of the scalp should be very carefully and tenderly performed It is best to use warm water with a mild soap, rubbing i'll gently and with the ends of the fingers then rinsing with tepid water. Drying should be done by gently pressing the hair and scalp with a very dry towel, continu- ing until thoroughly dry. Tanning is another safe process. If any applica- tion is necessary to bring hair thus dried into shape, dampen with solu- ton of bichloride of mercury Stiff brushes are especially injurious to the tender scalp. causing the hair to break and irritating the delicate skin cover Ing of the head.

no difference, others take the opposite
view of the matter, however. if it is IN
safe farmer has little or no protection as
one or any number of his cattle may be
bit by furiated animal while in pasture
and he would unknowingly, for the time
being, make use of the milk. Puppies of
dogs bit by others have lived and thrived
long after mamma dog was under the sod.
The excitement has abated but little. one
case after another having come to light
the past two weeks and it is the general
topic for conversation. The dogs are

The Hospital was founded in order to give
to the deserving poor of Baltimore and
the State the gratuitous services OF
physicians skilled in these special lines,
also when necessary, hospital accommo-
dations, so far as the resources of the
hospital will permit.
The report of the attending surgical
staff for the year 1905, shows the number
of patients applying for treatment was
1891, of whom I,322 were white and 6e
colored. These were divided among the
three departments as follows: Eye, 748;
Ear, at; Throat, 500. The attendance in
the Dispensary for the year reached a

was 344, an increase of 100 over the pre-.
ceding year. During 1905, 387 more pa
