KISS IN HER BRIBE

Chicago Record Herald. The Duchess
was one OF the staunchest supporters Of
Fox when, in 1884. he was contesting
Westminster in behalf OF the Whig par
~. We are told that the lovely Geor-
gana entered into the spirit Of the cleo
tion, with all the ardor Of her excitement
temperament thereby gaining many a
vote for Fox.
It seems. however that one man held
out against her wiles-the aforesaid
butcher-that is, he held out for while,
finally capitultaing when offered iss
for his vote. Such a bribe, it has been
ga idwas irrestiale when coming from
the Duchess Of Devonshire.
Aonther beautiful Duchess-the Duchess
OF Gordon--is also said to have tested
the efficacy of fair woman's kiss when,
in 1894 she was directly instrumental
in gaining many recruits for the Cor
don Highlanders by means OF the offer
Of guinea and a XII apiece.

In the death of Richard Watson
Glider American literature has lost one
Of its most conscientious exponents, a
man whose sense Of the appropriate in
literature was almost unerring. Either
in the capacity of critic or as writer
he stood easily i'm that group whose
sole survivor is William Dean Howells.
Mr. Glider experienced the vicissitudes
that commonly are undergone by men
of genius whose pathway in life has
not been cast up before them through
fortunate circumstances. and he con-
quered the oppositions OF environment
with admirable fearlessness and ap-
probation of a mission.
The author of poetry. whose fine
construction and high plane OF quality
has given assurance of the perpetuity
Of his fame, a writer Of great sanity
and grace upon such classes of themes
as interested him, and an editor Of ex-
ceptional ability. Mr.. Glider was in all
respects worthy Of the high tributes
that are paid him as a leader in con-
temporary literature. With his pass
ing the question is pressed home to the
consciousness OF Americans. "Who is
there fitted to carry the standards OF
American literary excellence upon the
lofty plateaus whittier they were borne
by those who. dying. have left behind
them literary bequests that enrich the

Nobody in his senses could believe that
Theodore Roosevelt would deliberately en-
courage or condone corruption In the pub
lie service Of which he was the head. Yet
the revelations in tho Sugar Trust rob.
berry OF tho Treasury have gone far
enough to show that Mr. Roosevelts Nd
ministration was tarred with the black
est pitch That he blinded his eyes to
conditions which he could not have failed
TO see had he looked at them SIS patent.
for they were laid before him by one OF
his subordinates. But a temperamental
defect OF Mr.. Roosevelt dragged his Ad-
ministration into one OF the foulest scan
dals that have dsgraccd Government.
This tempcramental defect consists in
Mr.. Rooscvelts inability TO stand any
thing but praise Of himself and of any
thing for which ho Is accountable. No
man could differ from Mr. Roosevelts s
view without offending him. No man could
tell Mr.. Roosevelt that anything was
wrong about what he had done or what
one OF his creatures had done, without be-
ing held by Mr.. Roosevelt to be his per-
sonal enemy. Agree with President Roose-
welt and you We're his loyal friend. Ap-

CAUSE OF ECZEMA EXPLAINED
Germs Fester in the Skin and Blood
Cures are Impossible.

After years of debate medical au-
thorities are now agreed that Eczema
and other skin disease are not seated
In the blood. but are caused by germs
in the skin. Nlyriads OF microscopic
animals gnaw the flesh Just below the
epidermis. The patient is perfectly
healthy it is only the skin that is
diseased. Hence, scientists are now
agreed that you must cure the skin
through the skin.
The medicine must be in LIQUID
form in order to penetrate properly.
And we can say with confidence that
we have the true remedy for Eczema
in our store. It is the mild OIL OF
Wintergreen wash known as d. d. D.
Prescription, and on q special offer
just now We are able to give you a

NEW CASTLE couuty's school teachers are
having their annual institute at Newark
this week, while Kent countys teachers are in
session in Dover and Milford has the honor OF
entertaining the Sussex county teachers. These
institutes with their opportunities for the
change of views and experiences of the teach
ers and with the added interest of lectures by
persons of high staining in the educational
world, should be exceedingly beneficial The
teachers in the rural schools are fulfilling an inn
portant mission in the advancement and devel-
opment of the State. Theirs oftentimes is a
task much more perplexing than that of the
teacher in a school of the large city or the pros
porous town, for they have the inconvenience Of
many miles of travel to the little country school,
the Encouragement of an attendance of pupils
that fuctuates in proportion TO the need Of the
child in doing farm work, and withal many Of
the salaries paid the rural teachers could be in
creased without any semblance to extravaganza.
The county superintendeuts OF schools seem to
have elevated the institutes to a worthy stan

GOVERNMENTS NEW CERTIFICATES.

SECRETARY Of the Treasury Mac Veagh
- has decided upon the design and character
of the three per cent certificates of indebtedness
which he is authorized to issue whenever an
emergency arises for the issue of such short term
liabilities as these, which are limited to one
year. They are not to be issued in the imme
diate future, but when the necessity arises they
will be in the form of United States bonds and
only in denominations of $1,000 each.
When first proposed after the panic of 1907
they were designed to be issued in denomina
tons as low as $50 and $50, with the expecta-
ton that they would attract the investment Of
those who keep their money in stockings and
places other than banks. Secretary Mac Neagh
points out however, that in such form they
would be rather apt to increase stringency than
diminish it for people would be likely to with
draw money from the banks and put it into these
certificates which would be as good as govern
uent bonds. 1t was therefore decided to make
them purely a convenience for the banks upon
which they could secure additional circulation
for temporary use. An important reason for
this was that it was deemed bad policy to offer
to the public as an investment a government Sc
curity which had only one year to run. thus
necessitatng withdrawal and reinvestment at
the end of that period.

INLAND WATERWAYS PROJECT.

nELAWARE'S delegates have returned from
- the Waterways Convention in Norfolk,
much pleased with the sessions and with no rea-
son TO feel that there is any tagging in the agi-
tation for this important project of chain OF in
land waterways from way down East TO the Car
olinas. Encouragement beamed upon the con-
vention, and President Taft gave the inland wa
terways scheme an impetus of which such a
parsonage only would be capable. The inland
waterways project was not born to be stifed by
discouragement or a failure to obtain immedi-
ately the pathway of canals and bays and
sounds to furnish an inland course from Boston
to South Carolina. The project has merit, is
entirely feasible and will go great ways to
promote the commerce of the small vessels that
cannot now run in the coastwise trade, well
as the larger vessels that might ply along the
ocean but which would prefer the inland route
because of its safety. We sure that Della

Washington will be in the front rank for the in

The question Of whether young woman or
girl has legal right to chew gum is before the
courts in Mississippi. A girl was put out Of
school by the principal because she insisted on
working her Jaws on chewing gum instead Of
working her brain to learn her lessons. The
mother of the girl brought suit for damages
against the principal, asserting that her daugh-
ter had a legal right to chew gum, but the jury
sustained the principal and an appeal has been
taken to the Supreme Court of the State, and
we shall therefore have an opinion Of the learn
ed judges of high court on this matter. But
whether courts rule one way or another, we pre-
sumo that the girls will continue to chew gum
il they are so disposed, even though the oper-
alton does not add to the beauty of their facial
expression.
