JUsTIsoN STREET AGAIN.

a LREADN there has been too much talk
about the proposed vacation of Justison
street What will Mr.. Schwab and his associates
think OF this city if there is to be quibble about
a Slight inconvenience caused by bent street in
stead OF a straight street? OF course the interests
of all concerned in this matter must be considered
carefully and there should be no violent impair
mcnt Of property rights of other industries but it
docs seem that the slight objections are merely
bubble unworthy of Wilmington, They tend to
place MS in an unfavorable light
The owners of the Harlan and Hongsworth
Company are comparatively strangers to this city.
They have not meddled in Delaware politics. and
we do not presume that they have pull in the
control of matters which would enable them to
get what they want right off the bat as the
slang but fitting expression is. In consider
ing this matter We do not wish to fly off in tan
gent. but we do say that this vacation Of Justi-
street question is a matter of the deepest im-
portancc to Wilmington
The other DAY when the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company lined mp its batteries at the meeting Of
;hc Street and Sewer Directors il was pointed
out that the railroad company is one of our great
est industries. and the reports said that there was
general audation of the company 1t was urged
that the city departments should make a
bargain with the company that is like the handle
OF iug-ou one side. 1t is true that the railroad
company is ono of our greatest industries. but the
water FRANCHISE is not parallel case with the
Harlan and llollingsworth Company's applica-
ton.
Some of our prominent citizens interested in
other departments of the city government lined
up in behalf OF the railway application and we
think it would be well if they would show similar
interest in this Harlan and iollingsworth appli-
cation II the city can find way TO give the rail-
road company what II wants. it certainly should
be able to accommodate the Harlan and Hollings
worth Corporation.
1t is a reflection upon the city that three of the
newspapers OF Wilmington have deemed il their
duty to discuss this question and to keep il before
the people in effort to stir up sentiment so that
we shall not lose this industry
As we have frequently have said. blunder was
made some time ago when another important in
dustry desired to locate in this city and The Jour
nal does not wish this blunder repeated.

The report OF the grand jury of New Castle
county. which complained of the unsanitary con-
dition Of the Court House in this city, has at
tracted some attention in Sussex county. The
Milford Chronicle SAYS that il the New Castle
grand Jury could inspect the Court House at
Georgetown. with its ill-smells and filthy to-
bacco spittal in its corrdors-they would recon-
mend that it be destroyed at once as a menace to
health And the Chronicle adds "'rhe Sussex
County Court House is disgrace to civilization. +"
Some time ago there was an agitation for an inn
proved or new Court House in SUSSEX but the
matter seems to hive been dropped Sussex
should certainly have new Court House That
county of late years has greatly increased in
wealth and some OF that wealth should find its
wav into a county building that would be a credit
TO the county.

COMPLAINTS ABOUT PAINT.

The time to complain about paint
is before the painter applies it. The
man who puts up the money should
not shirk the responsibility of choos-
ing the paint. True, the painter
ought to know paint better than the
banker. the professional man or the
merchant. The trouble is, the house
owner too often deliberately bars the
competent and honest painter from
the job by accepting a bid which he
ought to know would make an honest
job impossible.
Secure your bids on the basis of
National Lead Company's pure White
Lead and pure Linseed Oil and see
that you get these materials.
No one need be fooled by adulter-
ated white lead. A blowpipe testing
outfit will be mailed to anyone inter-
ested in paint.

Gus the matter with your horses ex-
cept general run down condition,

cure Of this disease.

You Would Not Accept Counterfeit
Money, Why Accept Counterfeit

Good money is made by the Govern
ment in which you have implicit faith
and confidence. Good goods are made
by manufacturers who are willing to
stake their regulations on the quality
of the material offered to you through
the medium of their advertisements in
this paper. Counterfeit goods are not

which genuine advertised goods are

CHANGE IN FOOD
Works Wonders in Health.

It is worth knowing that a change
In food can cure dyspepsia. 81 deem
it my duty to let you know how Grape
Nuts food has cured me of indigestion.
81 had been troubled with it for
years, until last year my doctor recon-
mended Grape-Nuts food to be used
every morning. / followed instruc-
tons and now I am entirely well.
THE whole family like Grape-Nuts,
we use four packages a week. You
are welcome to use this testimonial
as you see it,"
The reason this lady was helped by
the use of Grape-Nuts food, is that it
is predigested by natural processes
and therefore does not tax the stom-
ach as the food she had been using;
It also contains the elements required
for building up the nervous system.
If that part Of the human body is in
perfect working order, there can. be no
dyspepsia, for nervous energy repre-
sents the steam that drives the engine.
When the nervous system Is run
down, the machinery of the body
works badly. Grape-Nuts food can be
used by small children as well as
adults. 1t is perfectly cooked and
ready for instant use.
