JACOBY GETS
BIG BUILDING
he Pays $4,000 For Prop.
erty No, 226 Market
Street

The largest real estate transaction re-
corded this week was the purchase by
Louis Jacoby from Joseph L. Carpenter,
Jr., OF the property No. 226 Market street.
The consideration was $4,000. This prop
erty, together with the one No. 224 was
occupied by Mr.. Jacoby previous to the
! fire which burned him out several months
ago. Now Mr.. Jacoby has combined the
properties into one commodious store.
Work on the building is progressing rap
idly and will be ready for occupancy in
a short time.
The number Of transfers are begin
ming to increase each week. This is an
! indication that the real estate market
is growing more brisk. However, this
is partly due to the fact that the at
torneys are now in the habit OF filing
the records of transfers at the CITY
registry bureau instead OF taking them
to the Court House as has been done
heretofore. These records were held at
the Court House from one month to
another because Of the press Of busi-
ness and would not, therefore. get on
the city records for several months.

WORKS HIGH
ABOVE STREET

Many persons passing Tenth and
Market streets during the last few
days have gazed with wonder at a
painter employed on the DUPONT office
building This man is engaged In
painting the wondows Of the structure
and he stands on the sills. far above
the street industriously working away
and APPARENTLY unconcerned about the
attention he is attracting. That his
work is dangerous every one believes,
but probably the painter himself.

Nor A PARTIsAN cHARTER.

q ENATOR SPARKS announcement Of inn
- portant concessions to be made in the
proposed city charter knocks the props from
under objections that any Of the Democratic
members OF the Legislature may have to a new
instrument The Republicans. according to the
latest statements, are willing to permit the ward
arrangement to stand as at present-tweve
wards in the city. This gives an advantage to
the Democrats when the total vote Of the city is
concerned. With the twelve ward plan, the
Democrats have an equal chance of controlling
City Council with their Republican opponents
Any objection to the four ward system is thus
dispelled blythe willingness to make no change
in the wards. Another point about the charter,
open to serious objection was the authority of
the mayor to appoint officials 1t is now pro-
posed to elect the heads of department who
would form the Board of Control This would
do away with autooratc powers Of the mayor
and the administration of the city government,
practically by bureaucracy There is no par
tisan reason that can be advanced against the
charter as amended The election of members
of the Board of Control would give a good op-
portunity for minority representation on the
Board. The city is so close on municipal cleo
tons that each party might elect at least one
member of the board.
While the proposed charter legislation is being
considered the initiative and referendum feature,
the mouthpiece of the people, should not be lost
sight of Why it should require two-thirds
majority of council under the charter to grant
franchise or to issue bonds is not apparent.
Under the referendum bill for Wilmington that
is now before Governor Lea for action, the wish
of a majority of the voters expressed as to
whether or not franchise shall become effective
or money shall be borrowed is to be mandatory
upon council or other department having jurs-
diction in the question. If proposed fran
chse is meritorious benefit to the people or to
the city and should be granted by a majority vote
of Council, there would be no clamor for a refer
cndum On the other hand should council over
ride public sentiment and award a valuable fran
chse by two-thirds vote. it would not take long
for such grant to be overthrown by majority
of the voters invoking the referendum. Any
other idea than that of a majority vote to bestow
franchises would be inconsistent, for the people
stand as a bulwark to prevent encrouchment
on their rights or those Of the city when they
have an appeal to the referendum

It seems as II some reckoning should be

his ugly marks in every public place. He Is
a vandal, ana should be reckoned with as
such If a man walked the street and de-
faced property with cane he would be
arrested at once by the police and be fined
for his work. and very properly; yet we
let the match scratcher do worse and

Everybody admits that the eeachers In
the public schools Of Delaware are under
paid. They get no more, as rule, than
the laborer on the streets, and yet they
are people Of culture. who have devoted
years OF their lives to fitting themselves
for their duties and engage IN a work that
has few promises IN the future, even as
Il has had no rewards in the past The
men are forsaking the profession from
year TO year. and the females seem likely
to hold possession Of the field decade or
two hence. The reason for this Is that
men can lind more lucrative employment
while only a limited number Of women
oan. Even the females have taken It up
from necessity quite as much as from any
other reason, ana they, too, drop out so
soon as a husband or something better Of
fers.
Why not give these devoted women

proves. But persons who have given
the matter serious thought have become
more and more doubtful that the taking
of drugs into the stomach ever benefit
ed anyone-nay. convinced that it is
harmful But if one must "take some
thing" it is better to take medicine in
vegetable foods than to be swallowing
drugs, many of them poisonous A
health journal gives the following list
of vegetable medicines
Turnips, onions, cabbage, caulihower.
watercress and horsh-radish contain
sulphur.
Potato, salts Of potash.
French beans and lentils give iron.
Watercress, oil, iodine, iron, phos-

Spinach, salts of potassium and iron.
Food specialists rate this the most

Cabbage, cauliflower and spinach are
beneficial to aenemic people.
Tomatoes stimulate the healthy action
of the liver.
Asparagus benefits the kidneys.
Celery for rheumatism and neuralgia.
The carrot forms blood and beauties

Beets and turnips purify the blood

VIII Follow Good Example,

The success of the convention Of the
Presbyterian Brotherhood in Indianapo
lis few weeks ago has spurred on the
men of number of other religious
bodies to efforts along similar lines. In
the Congregational church, especially
leaders are calling for the organization
of that church's laymen, saying that the
denomination is losing much of effective
work because organization has not al
ready been accomplished. The matter
is certain to be one to receive close con
sideration at the meeting of the Con
gregational national council, which oc

several Congregational leaders, both
ministers and laymen, are working on
plans which they propose presenting tc
the council.
