Something To Think About.


AT meeting of the economic section
of the American Association for the Ad-
vancement of Science. at Columbia Uni
versity, New York, Henry L. Call. Of
Washington, stated that one per cent of
the population of the United States owns
practically ninety-nine per cent of the
nations entire wealth; that the 1900
600 wage-earners.o the country receive
an average of but $500 year; that nine
tenths Of those who try to engage in bus
mess are failures; that the average income
of American teachers is less than $500 a
year and that Of the 5000. 900 American
farmers, one-third are renters and that
the homes Of one-third Of the remaining
two.thirds are mortgaged. If that is
what prosperity gives to the industrious,
how will they fare in the coming days of
adversely, predicted by many?

There will be politics in plenty for
Cecil county this fall. with Offices enough
to nearly go round. the officials to be
voted for being States Attorney, two
County Commissioners, Sheriff, County
Treasurer, Assistant Treasurer, County
Surveyor, and three members of the
House of Delegates. Besides these, Gov
ernor, Comptroller, Attorney General,
and Clerk of the Court of Appeals are to
be elected. The Legislature will be an
important one politically, also, as the
two houses in joint session will be called
upon to elect two United States Senators,
one to fill the unexpired term of the late
Senator German, another to serve for the
full term of six years, beginning on
March a, 1909. A State Treasurer is also
to be elected by the Legislature.

Harry A. Richardson, of Dover, was
elected to the United States Senate from
Delaware, on Tuesday, to succeed ].
Frank Alice. The senatorial situation in
Delaware, which had so long been in
contention, was practically settled on
Monday night, when the republicans in
caucus assembled nominated Mr.. Richard
son after nine ballots had been taken.
The outcome was victory for the Du
Pont forces who proved stronger than
those of Senator Alice and ex-senator
Higgins, who combined against Mr..
Richardson.
With the election of the new Senator
comes not only the political overthrow of
Alice, who owed his rise in politics solely
to ]. Edward Addicks, then promptly
deserted him, but also the complete loss
of power and wreck of the once mighty
political machine built up by the gas
man who was the prince of corruptors
aud sowed the ducats broadcast in the
Diamond State during his sixteen years
of political successes, which have finally
fallen into ruin through their very
rottenness.

Congress Monday. Representative Mudd,
of Maryland, introduced bill providing
for the purchase of the present waterway,
as recommended by the commission. The
bill limits the amount to be expended to
$r,25o, 600, about one-half the price
named by the commission, indicating a
belief that the board over estimated the
value of the present property. Both the
report and the bill were referred to the

The suggestions offered by the Cecil
Farmers Club to the County Commits
sioners at their last meeting relative to
road work in our county, will be found in
the proceedings of the Club published on
page five of this issue. These suggestions,
presented in no spirit of criticism, bnt in
the hope of assisting the Commissioners
in the solving of problem which has
ever been vexing one, are practical, and
if adopted would do much toward making
the roads of the county model ones, and
that, too, without the expenditure of
anywhere near the amount required for
macadam roads, whose sole objection is
their great expense.
The committees recommendations pro-
pose the use of gravel and the doing
away of the present system whereby
roads are let out to farmars. whose scar
city of help and press of work in the
spring, when the roads should be attend
ed to. prevent their giving them any
attention until long past the time they
should be repaired, and the placing OF
them under charge of competent men
with authority to employ laborers and
teams and oversee the repairing at the
proper time of year.
The enactment of laws is advocated
making possible the changes of system
recommended and the purchase of gravel
pits.
Cecil county has struggled along for Sc
many years under road system which in
addition to being expensive has proven
such a failure, that some such practical
plan as the one offered should win the
hearty support of the taxpayers, who
realize perfectly they do not receive the
proper return for money expended on the
roads, and in addition TO favoriug the
plan should use every effort in securing
its adoption, and not permit it to be
merely recorded in the proceedings Of the
Board and then be entirely forgotten in
a few months, when the summer sun dries
up the mud and puts the roads in more
satisfactory condition for travel than at

wisconsin Judge Makes Record of
Which He Is Not Ashamed.
Declaring that he had granted approx
mately 1000 divorces since he had been
on the bench, Judge John Goodland at a
meeting of the Twilight Club in Appleton
declared that divorces were right and
wholesome, and that of all he had given
he did not know of a half dozen that
should not have been granted. Many
Well-lntentioned people," said Judge Good
land, lament the growing practice of
granting divorces. Occasionally hear OF
divorce where the facts were perverted
and the decree should not have been
given, but these are so few that they are
hardly worthy of mention. | know that
| am considered rather easy in the matter
OF granting divorces, but l believe it is
wrong to make a woman live with
drunken and quarrelSOme husb"n nd, and in
the case Of children it is wrong to cause
them to be reared in such an atmosphere.
The divorce is not the evil; it is the con-
ditions that lie back of it. don't believe
in restricting divorces, which are right
and wholesome as a rule, but in bringing
about reform in the conditions which lead

For the newly born infant, the first
garment should be a yielding bandage
In the form of a wristletmade of stock
Inette or some elastic material, to be
slipped on and off as desired. No pins
are required, but two little straps to
go over the shoulders and button in
front This is sufficient to support the
usual dressing, and also allows the nee
essary expansion and contraction of
the body. The outer garments should
be short, and made without waists,
that there may be no compression. Few
articles are required to dress baby (;
Eve Or six are all that are needed
the bandage, diaper, a vest, one or two
skirts and the outer slip.
Regularity is the keynote to health
in baby. Whatever is done for him
must always be done at the same hour.
He should have his bath at the same
time, always be fed in the same way,
at the stated hour; the time of being
put to bed, either for Il nap or for the
night should not vary five minutes,
and his airing must not be interfered
with. Baby is distinctly a creature of
habit as well as of instinct, and unless
he is allowed to do the same things day
after day he will have indigestion, in
sOmnia, bad temper, cold, etc.
The daily bath is not only cleansing,
but helps him to be a well-developed
child. 1t is for this that he should
have a tub big enough to splash and
kick in, and be given time for this
amusement. There never was healthy
boy who did not love this if the tenn

Pleasant Voice Is Low.

II you stop to realize that the most
glorious music ever written loses its
beauty when played upon a harsh and
tuneless instrument, then you can APP
preciate how your best phrases, when
spoken in a nasal, undisciplined voice
actually hurt the ears of your nearer.
No less famous person that Demos
themes appreciated that his ideas could
never hold the attention of any au-
dience if he expressed them in sharp
and striden tones. Consequently that
greatest of 1 II orators gave the most
earnest and patient attention to the
mastery of his naturally unmusical
voice before he attempted to speak to
the Athenian people, and, in a small
way, it is quite easy for any one to do
just what Demosthenes did. The way
to give smOOthness and sweetness to
high, harsh voice is to use the SIM
pie device Of persistently speaking one
whole octave lower than that which is
ordinarily and carelessly employed.
This brings the voice under control,
and this is what gives to the voice of
nearly every southern woman that nice
distinction that enables us to tell in
an instant from what part of this big
continent she comes, no matter when
or where we may meet her.

For the decoration of the tailor

of the smartest and most becoming

a wide crushed band of the broadtail

such hats in both flowers and ribbons.
