Wants Manufactures.

Washington now wants manufacturers
and the Board of Trade of that city has
issued booklet setting forth the natur'l
advantage Of the capital city as manu-
featuring centre. This is the first time
in the history of the national capital
that such a movement has been made.
The Board of Trade banks upon tue
natursI advantages of Washington,
which none will attempt to conlroVert'
but the same claim can be made by Alex
andris. Within lew weeks time Two
modern and swift ferry steamers Will De
making balf.hour trips between the Two
cities which with the dOuble-track cleo
trio railway will cause more complete
commingling Of the business OF the TWO
cities. Manufacturers who may PeIuse
the Washington booklet should cast ineir
ewes a short distance south OF the caPllSi
CITY if they are contemplating a removal
of their plants. As was stated 10 yeSler'
davis Gazette, a Washington manuise-
tory will remove to Alexandrla on May
1sl There is reason to believe that
others will follow, especially some oil
the small ones, as the facilities IN TINS
city are equally as desirable as those III
Washington, while rents are lower II
is believed by many that could electric
itv fur power be obtained here numbers
of new plants would spring up in Alex
andria III the near future.

that poisonous matter is used In making
them Ia one of the cases which he
treated II child suffered for two hours
with violent spasms after eating a cents
worth OF the eggs and had mario" es,
cane from death. The above should
prove a sufficient warning to parents IN
every civ. The Easter season Is mere
and all sorts of articles which appeal to
innocent children are exposed IN ihe
windows of certain stores. There are
doubtless many cOneOtions in Alexsn'
dria which are not deleterion' to health
but dangerous. The stOrekeepsrs them
selves may be ignorant of this fact.
