GUARD RAILS
ARE NO BARRIER
Men and Women Crawl Under
Them and Sometimes
Do Stunts

The occasional appearance OF ths
sun and a few balmy days of the good
old summer kind. have brought out
most Of the open cars on the local troll
ley lines With the advent of the open
car the rail at one side is supposed to
effectually close that side of the car
as means of ingress or egress. The
rail is designed TO prevent passengers
from alighting from the cars willis
other cars are passing on turnouts on
double track sections Of the road, ana
IS a precaution used by the company
to prevent accidents. Some travellers
do not seem to recognize the efforts
OF the companies to insure their safety,
and dozens of times daily people can
be seen emerging from cars by crawl
ing under the rail. hoping by this
means to gain few seconds time In
reaching the sidewalk. oftentimes only
to remain standing there to watch the
slower and more dignined exit of their
fellow-passengers
Conductors are constantly warning
passengers not TO get Off cars while
the same are In motion or on the
wrong side. but In many cases the
warning is not neeuen Ine caution

But women are not the greatest ag-

Speaking of photographs Of brides.
the photographers are rejoicing at the
way in which the June weddings keep
on. There seems to be no end to
them. and It seems as if silk worms
must soon go on a strike, for they
must be working overtime to supply
the gorgeous costumes which figure in
these pictures. One prominent photos
grapher says that the idea that most
brides are nervous is quite wrong, for
almost all Of those who have sat Tor
him this year are as cool as cucumbers
or else have given a good imitation Of
it. "They are as self7Dossessed as
any other sitters and never overlook
any detail that is destined to add to
the beauty Of the finished picture" he
adds.

What Woman Can Do

There are three things that every
woman might do. to help in beautify-
ing the world and making life better
worth living.
One of these is to make her person
as beautiful as she can. by observ-
ing the laws of health and preserving
the Tranquil, trustful state of mind
which Is reflected in the face and man
ner.
Another is to learn to beautify her
dress. This does not mean to increase
its comDlexity or its adherence to the
changes of fashion; hut rather to
study and experiment until she finds
out what forms. colors. and STYLES are
most becoming to her. then adopt these
in hairdressing and garments.
The third thing is to beautify the
place wherein she lives, whether it is
one room or spacious home. Weed
out the wrong things, rearrange ths
others, and force your dwelling place
to express in some way your own feel
ngs after what is beautiful and true.
NO matter how circumscribed her
life, these three steps toward the bet>
terment Of the world are within every
woman's reach.
She may not be able to take part in
great club movements. The circle of
her influence may be a small one.
Yet If there is in hor an ideal OF
beauty which finds its expression in
the steadfast Improvement of bor
home, her health. AMI her dress. she
Is doing the biggest kind of artistic
work
All reform and all progress begins
with and works out through the indi-
vidual

From Medicine 10 Naturs.

Cleveland Leader.
Sir Frederick Treves is not only the
King of England's most trusted sur
geon, but a great man in his profess
sion, Judged by any standard. He has
won honors Of the most remarkable
kind, and his career is impressive in
its scope and successes. This high
authority is the latest among the doc
tors who have gained the front RANK
in their calling to declare that thezs
viii be much less use Of drugs hence
forth. He asserts that eminent and
scholarly physicians are relying less
every year upon medicines and more
upon pure air. rational exercise, ssinn-
pie diet and like means Of warding
Off and overcoming disease. They are
trusting nature more and mans de-
vices less.
The falling death rate in all advanc
ed countries indicatcs-ti1at the world
knows how to- live much better than
it did a few years ago. It is clear that
the new methods of the medical pro-
fession are at least no barrier to the
successful treatment Of disease. The
lower mortality can hardly be inter-
preted in any other way, though the
chief cause of the falling death rates
is doubtless modern sanitation and the
greater comfort and prosperity of the
people of civilized countries. Doctors
have their work to do, just as they
did a generation back. but it is more
prevention and less cure. more the uss
Of natures resources and less admin
istering drugs. They will always be
needed to advise the well and watch
over and aid the sick, but their SER
vices to mankind will be rendered
more wisely than in the past.

MERCHANTS MAY
HOLD CARNIVAL
Suggested That Low Prices
Rule During the CeIe-
bTatiOn

The Mercantile Association last
night considered the advisability of
having a "home week" for Wilmington
this year. The idea was favorably con-
sidered, but no definite action in the
matter was taken.
1t was suggested that a street car
nival be held, but this was not consid-
cred feasible. 1t was held that the car
nival would prove to be such an attrac-
ton that the business streets would be
deserted, thus having the wrong effect.
It was further suggested that the mer-
chants Of the city set aside a week for
business purposes only. and through
reduction in prices of their goods, and
also a return to the purchasers who
have come from out Of the city Of car
fare paid by them.
In order to arouse more interest in
the association on tn part Of merchants
the members last evening decided to
exempt all those who desire to join,
between now and February 1, 1908,
from entrance fees and dues.
Clement II. Lipincott stated to the
association that he understood II was
the intention of the building commit
tee Of the Young Mems Christian As
sociation to purchase all the material
to be used in the construction Of the
new building at Tenth and Orange
streets, in this city. This, he said,
would mean a great thing for the deal
ers in building material, although, like
the rest OF the members, he regretted
that local architects were not asked to
submit plans for the building.
James II. Wright resigned as a MEM
ber Of the association, and Cleemnt Fl.
Lipincott was chosen to succeed him
as "a member Of the board Of directors.
The next meeting, on June 27, will be
the last before the summer vacation.
