People the world over were Mortified
on learning Of the burning Of Chicago
theater in which nearly six hundred peo-
pie lost their lives, yet more than five
times this number or over 5000 people
died from pneumonia in Chicago during
the same year. with scarcely passing
notice. Every one Of these cases OF
pneumonia resulted from cold and
could have been prevented by the timely
use OF Chamberlain's Cough remedy. A
great many who had every reason to fear
pneumonia have warded it off by the
prompt use OF this remedy. The follow
ing is an instance Of this sort: "To much

Congressman Burton aided the passage
Of tho Chesapeake & Delaware Canal
resolution through the House Of Repre-
sentatives with a very able presentation
of its merits, but in the Senate it struck
a snag. Senator Hale desired informa-
tion, but Delawares Senator sat speech
less and the resolution went on the calen-
dar for the want OF friendly voice in its
behalf And the probabilities are that
had Delaware's Senator-elect also been
present, che result would have been the
same--no voice would have been raised
in support Of this resolution, which

palmed off as the original articles upon

A Poor Piece Of Work.

The latest directory of the Delaware &
Atlantic Telegraph and Telephone Co. for
the Wilmington district, issued under date
Of May, 1906, has been visited with many
hot and hostile criticisms, by reason Of its
highly unsatisfactory character and inn
perfections Of arrangement and work.
manship.
Prominent among the defects is the
exceedingly close printing, resulting in an
economy of space that has produced irri-
tating results. The lines Of numbers and
names are set close together, a defect
which would be serious even with the
employment Of larger type, but which,
combined with the small body Of the type
in which the book is set, makes the expert
ence Of searching out desired name very
trying TO eyes and brain, and highly con
ducive to aggravating mistakes when the
searcher is in a hurry.
Another serious defect il the setting Of
the numbers in light-iace type, while the
names are set in black-face. To those
who have occasion for frequent calls this
defect is particularly aggravating. The
numbers should be even more conspicu-
GUS than the names, as was the rule in
previous issues Of this directory all but
one Of which we're so satisfactory in char
acter as TO provoke not the slightest un-
favorable comment.
The typographical appearance Of the
book is the limit Of ugliness. In addition
TO the unfavorable effect Of the crowded
lines, scarcely a page can be found in
which the alignment Of the names is
straight. On most Of them it is as
crooked as the proverbial dogs hind
leg" Nor are typographical errors in
frequent. One prominent institution in
this city, which has a large service, is
put down as 966, whereas its correct
number is 996 The annoyance to which
the concern and its customers and also
the real 966 are subjected by this error in
figures may be readily imagined. An
other conspicuous typographical error is
found In the list Of subscribers TO the
exchange at Belle Haven, Va.-the
Diamond State Telephone Co.'S system
where Nassawadox, on the New York,
Philadelphia & Norfolk Railroad, is per-
sistently spelled Massawadox. How
many other typographical blunders might
be revealed by a critical scrutiny Of the
pages is a matter Of conjecture.
Taken in its entirety, the directory is
not only very unsatisfactory, but falls
far below the standard which is Justly
demanded by the extent and Importance
of the telephone business of the Whining
ton district. II bears the earmarks Of
cheap and nasty country printing secured
on cheap and nasty bids. It is in such
painful contrast with its generally correct
and satisfying predecessors as to make its
shortcomings all the more noticeable and
aggravating. We feel sure, by reason oi
such comparison, that the fault lies not
with Superintendent Mehaffy, but rather
in some mistaken system that has beer
adopted by the corporation management
The only thing TO be done, in justice tC
the many subscribers throughout the dis
trict, is to issue another directory, and q
decent one, as soon as possible, to b,
printed by some printer who knows how
to do such work.
