words, we guarantee TO keep your teeth in
perfect condition for 365 days, at an OK

IMPORTANT COURT DECISION.

Special Correspondence oil hverv Evening
Dover, March 2l.-An important de-
cision was handed down, yesterday. IT, the
Court of Chancery. by Chancellor Nichol-
SON, in the case OF Bradford Gray VS..
Fred Il. Emerson being an action to re-
strain the collection of certain iudg-
ments by Gray from Emerson. Emcr-
SON who left the State several years ago,
leaving behind a wife and several chil-
dren, made no provision for their main
tenance. Gray who is the father of Mrs.
Emerson, came from Pennsylvania to
live with his daughter and TO aid and
assist her financially and otherwise in
maintaining the children All resided
on a farm near Cheswold. six miles north
of here. The claim of Emerson was that
Gray was in collusion with his daughter.
Mrs. Emerson, in bringing the Judgments
referred to.
The original bill filed in Chancery was
demurred TO on the ground that the Court
Of Chancery could not go behind the
officer return on the summons. The
Chancellor decided that where a false
return was obtained with the knowledge
of the plaintiff in action and for his bene-
lit, the Court OF Chancery could 60 ahead
OF the return. The decision of the Chan.
cellor grants leave for the attorneys oI
Emerson to amend their demurrer.
Guardians were appointed by the court

Like catarrh, il pervades the whole

A great many people believe that they
have been cured of chronic Brighps

IL Is certainly true fhafin the earlier
stages Of Brighf'S Disease, Peru1a Is

Numerous testimonials on this point

State Department Forced to Send Out
Humilating Circular.

Humiliahng Circular.
Washington. March 20.-A circular has
been sent out from the State Department
TO all diplomatic and consular officers in
forming them that they can no longer
draw on the department for funds for
expenses because Congress has refused
TO include in the Urgent Deficiency bill
O00Oiortl ronsulat service and $780,
600 Tor the diplomatic service
The State Department is embarrassed
and Inundated by the condition. which
is steadily growing worse. At various
consular offices in many parts of the world
there is not even enough money to pay
postage and the efficiency of the service is
very much impaired. In many cases the
consular or diplomatic officers pay for
many government expenses out of their
own pockets. As an illustration of the
conditions which are prevalent in Ameri-
can foreign establishments, il is cited that
such is the condition of the fund that the
American Embassy in Paris cannot afford

Having secured possession Of the upper
floors Of the Hardness Building, the con-
tractors for the new du Pont Building
have made decidedly active move toward
uzing the structure, and il is likely that
within a very few days after DR. J. G..
Robinson, the only remaining tenant in
the building, vacates, the building will be
leveled
Much OF the upper part OF the building
was occupied 10y the Manufactures Con-
tracting Co.. which has found other quar-
ters, and since the departure of the COM
pany the windows in the upper stories
have been taken out and the interior of
the building Is being dismantled
In order to protect the entrance TO the
drug store and the sidewalk on the corner,
which is still in use, the contractors have
erected platform at the second story,
which catches debris that falls there The
upper end of the sidewalk on the Market
street side has been fenced off, to prevent
people passing that part Of the property
which Is used as a means for getting teams
and material in and out of the excavation.
The structural steel work for the build
ing has been ordered and it is expected
that II will begin to arrive as soon as the
foundations are in shape to receive il.
While the operation has been handi-
capped TO some extent. because OF the
weather, better progress HAS been made
than some had Expected as the weather
has been mild during the greater part of
the winter which made il possible to
work, except on two or three occasions,
and the delays were only for short periods
All of the buildings on the site. with
the exception of the Hardness Building.
have been removed, and a great deal has
been done in the matter of excavating
for the basement and the foundations
which leaves very little preliminary work
after the corner building is out of the way.
IL is expected that the new building
will be completed and ready for occupancy
by March 25th. 1907.

CRYING SHELLS or cEYLcN.
counds They Make Like the Notes Of
an Aeolian Harp.

Sir J. Emerson Tennent, having
heard story about musical sounds
issuing from the lake at Ratticalea
in Ceylon, paid visit to the place.
says Chambers Journal. The fisher
men told hin. that the sounds, which
resembled the faint sweet notes OF
81 aeolian harp, were heard only al
night and during the cry season, were
most distinct when the moon WAS
nearest the full, and proceeded. they
believed, not from a fish, but from
shell called the crying shell"
IN the evening" says Tennent,
when the moon rose l took a boat
and accompanied the fishermen to the
spot We rowed about zoo yards
northeast of the jetty by the fort
gate; there was rot a breath CT wind
or a ripple except those caused by
the dip of our cars. On coming to
the point mentioned l distinctly
heard the sounds in question They
came up from the water like the
gentle thrills of a musical chord, or
the faint vibrations OF a wine3iass
when its rim is rub I'd by nlois'
tened finger. 1t was not one sus-
tanned note, but multitude CT tiny
sounds, each clear and distinct in 1t
self; the sweetest treble mingling
with the lowest bass.
ION applying the ear to the wood
work Of the beat the vibration was
greatly increased in volume The
sounds varied considerably at different
points as we moved across the lake,
as if tlss number of the animals from
which they proceeded was greatest in
particular spots, and occasionally we
! rcwed out of hearing of them alto
G, Their, until on returning to the orig
inal locality the sounds were at once
renewed. This fact seems to indicate
that the causes Of the sounds, what
ever they may be, are stationary at
several POINTS, and this agrees with
! the statement Of the natives that they
are produced by mollusca and not by
fish
"They came evidently and sensibly
from the depth of the lake, and there
was nothing in the surrounding cir
cunnstances to support the conjecture
that they could be the reverberation
of noises made by insects on the shore
conveyed along the surface of the
water, for they ~ere Ioudest and most
distinct at POINTS where the nature OF
the land and the intervention OF the
fort and its building forbade the pos.
cibility Of this kind Of conduction-"

In SHAEERTOWN

Il ShakcTtown the people ell
Shook late and early, large and small.
Some blamed their ills on their religion;
Some cursed the ague of the region.
Though on the cause they didn't agree
Thoy shook with rnaniaity.
A traveller, as he passed that way,
With pity deep, to them did say:
"Oh, why in this sad state remain, I
When here's cure for every pain?"
Then gave each one-this is no myth
A bottle labeled "Wintcrsnith.
'Twixt hope and fear each drank his
share;
Was cured completely then and there;
And no more shake these shivering
Shakers;
They've grown as quiet as queer-clad
Quakers;
Each loves the other with love platonic.
And all praise Wintersmith's great
