Nothing can repay "a man for the loss Of
his health-not even eminent success.
Money, the acquisition of which has be-

To neglect health for the sake of business
success and getting ricn, is the greatest
crime a man or woman can commit against
himself or herself.
The simple investment of cne dollar
toward the preservation o. the teeth is the
best use that could ba made OF that amount

MONEY IN DELAWARE ELECTIONS.
Philadelphia Record.

FhIIndCIphIl record,
Efforts to discourage bribery in Della
ware will be promoted by the announce
ment that the du Points will contribute
nothing to the State campaign fund this
year. Two years ago they are credited
with having given the Republicans $50. p
600. They have been the leading element
in the anti-Addicls faction. and Il may
be thought that their quarrel with the
Court House ring in Wilmington will
increase the chance for mischief OF the gas
man and his friends But Addicks has of
late been putting much less money into
Delaware politics, and hence the decline
OF his influence II both sets of Repuhli-

Elkton, Md, Jan. PA great surprise
was sprung on the family of the late vii
liam II. Eder who was buried here this
afternoon, when his will was read. Mr.
Ilder left his widow one-third of his estate
which is valued at $50 900, and the rest of
his estate is hequeathed to Eder Park
His son and grandchildren were cut off
without a dollar
The ground known as Eder Park lies
along the Big Elk Creek and consists of
heavy marsh land which is in such con-
dition that the town authorities did not care
to accept it from Mr. Eder several years
ago. The will in all probability will be
contested

ST. STEPHENS CHURCH.
Project to secure a Site tor New Build
ing.

Project TO Secure "a Site tor New Build
ing.
The trustees of st. Stephens English
Lutheran Church have been authorized
10 look for site for new building
Authority was given at a congregational
meeting on Sunday. The idea is TO secure
q site in the residence section. With this
object IN view a new church property fund
was created some years ago. The selec-
tion of new church site does not mean
the removal of the present church build
ing AT Sundays meeting a strong senti-
mcnt was expressed in favor of continuing
services at the second church home OF St.
Stephens congregation.
st. Stephens Church was organized in
Fletcher Hall, which was on Market
street, below seventh, on December 9TH,
1888 On Sunday April 9TH, 1889, the
present building was rcconsecrated to the
service of God. 81. Stephens Church was
formerly occupied by the Household of
Faith, which organization no longer has
a place of worship here.
It was no small undertaking for the
infant English Lutheran congregation to
purchase n building two months after il
was organized. The cause prospered. On
July ist 1897, st. Stephens, which had
been hitherto % mission of the Minister
ium of Pennsylvania, became a sell-sup-
porting congregation. The same year the
pipe organ was purchased.
on April 29th 1904, ST. Stephens mort
gage indebtedness was cancelled. Since
that date ST. Stephens Church has been
without indebtedness.
just where the new site will be located
has not yet been determined. The trustees
are Ie,i A Bertolette. Henry Bush. John
Hirzel, James b. Obcrly and Edward r.

Reform OF fPrIeoners.

It has been ascertained that not / per
cent of the life prisoners who have been
liberated from the prisons in New York
State ever have committed crime A
record of the life term convicts from 1870
to 1900 shows that II per cent became
insane while in prison, while % per cent
of the life men at Auburn prison alone died
in the first ten years Of their terms. Very
few OF the life prisoners have any previous
criminal record, their crimes, in the great
majority Of cases, having been committed
on sudden impulse caused by n mo-
mentary frenzy of passion or the craze Of
intoxicants.
From these observations il is inferred
that this class Of prisoners is not really 80
great a menace TO society as are the petty
criminals who receive short sentences
and return to criminal practices. The
opinion is advanced by Superintendent
Collins of the New York prisons that if the
indeterminate sentence is substituted for
the life sentence, fewer prisoners will be
pardoned fewer will die or become insane,
and each prisoner will have the same
opportunity to earn release, and more
nearly will each prisoner pay the same
penalty for like crime, thus more nearly
meeting the ends OF Justice.
But how about the deterrent effects Of
such system of punishment for the
crime Of murder2 This crime is ever on
the increase throughout the country under
existing conditions
