A staff officer or colonel of any sort should be

faithful practice will qualify them
President Roosevelt when he directed the
sedentary colonels at Washington to stir around
and take horseback rides knew the value OF

officers visiting Washington will not be apt to

General Daniel Ross Major Mitchell and
some other experts who have been riding in pa

ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs
and Elixir of SIENNA is the only remedy of
known value, but one Of many reasons
why it is the best of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it cleanses,
swcetens and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any debilitating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time to time.
It acts pleasantly and naturally and
truly as laxative, and its component
parts are known to and approved by
physicians, as it is free from all objection

effects always purchase the genuine

sires to move along the path OF steady progress
and prosperity should be blessed with thou
sands of mechanics who contribute so greatly
to the wealth of the nation. They build our inn
mense structures, they work mines they
manufacture the raw materials into the finished
products and they enhance the wealth of the
ton. A nation that has poor workmen and
which does not care for their condition is a
poor nation. indeed The road to progress and
prosperity is blocked road to such country.
If it is important to the United States to haye
skilled workmen whose fame is emblazoned
everywhere in warships, just as important is it
to a city to have expert and contented me-
chanics.
Wilmington has been noted for her industries
of all sorts, for her shops and her factories that
have given this city worldwide reputation.
And fortunately there is no indication that this
city is not to maintain this reputation. We have
not done lately so much at shipbuilding as we
did some years ago, but we about to step
into the manufacture of steel cars that will be-
come noted throughout the country. When the
Harlan and Hollingsworth Corporation begins to
manufacture such cars-and it is TO be hoped
that the day is not far distant-Wilmington will
have another great industry which will add to
the fame of the city and the country.
It is to be noted that Mr.. Sqwab, the head
OF the corporation, is expected to be with us at
the Board of Trade dinner in the near future,
and this event should mark another epoch IN
the industrial history of this city.
