The white stone residence which has
just been finished for Reed Johnson at
the southwest corner of New Hampshire
avenue and Riggs street completes in that
direction the improvement of the block.
1t is not large house as such things go,
but it fills in a satisfactory fashion one
of the unimproved building sites on that
thoroughfare. Another unimproved lot was
at the southwest corner of Connecticut
avenue and Q street. However, the space
is now being filed by white stone mouse
for Mrs. Travers. and as there Is long
frontage with shallow depth the new
structure is principally front and is what
is known as a double house, with rooms
on each side of the main entrance.
The ample space on the south end or
the house will be used on the principal
floor as a great living room, while the
northern end will be devoted to dining
room.
Another addition to the homes of the
city is the house which has been com
pleted for Dr. j. G. Boyd at the south
east corner of Odd and r streets. Ihe
main entrance is on 22d street, which Is
the broadest of the two frontages, ana
the brick walls of light shade are finished
at the cornice line by the oVerhahsihs

Another Sheridan Circle House.
Thus far the work of erecting spa
cious residence for Mr.. Everett at the
southwest corner of Sheridan circle and

houses in the Sheridan circle locality,
which is the newest resident section OF

Confederate Writes Sister Of

Petersburg in "a
FIND MISSIVE In
OLD BUILDING RUIN

Following is a most interesting let
ter discovered by Carl Cooling, Of the
American Can Company of Havre de
Grace, Md. The letter written, no
doubt, by a young Confederate soldier
to his sister, was found in an old
building that was torn down at Havre
de Grace. The letter has been pre-
scented TO U. @. Click, this city.
The epistle will serve to give.
through its originality. some idea of
the life Of a Confederate soldier sta
toned at Petersburg on the Fourth
Of July, 1864.
It follows:
Battery 83. Petersburg Defense,
Tuesday Evening, July 8, 90.
Dear Sister Bella: Your most well
come letter Of the Both ultimo was
received yesterday and ] take this,
my first opportunity, Of replying to It.
You we're perfectly right in suppos-
ing that ! would prefer hearing from
home as often as possible and,l think
II is a good plan for you and Sophie
to write at different times: not that
prefer receiving letters from both
OF you, but If you write at different
times will consequently hear from
you oftener and by answering them
you will get letters of different dates
from me. Yesterday. being the 4th
Of July, and the day that Grant was
TO take dinner in Petersburg, we eX-
pected a big fight and were prepared
for II, but the day passed of very
quietly; IN fact, as far as we are con-
cerned, more so than usual went
down TO see Julian and Eugene Levy
yesterday evening and had the first
view of the Yankees that ! have had
since l have been here. They are at
Battery "a. and the Yankee works are
only 600 yards from them, and the
pickets are not more than $50 yards
apart l could see the men on the

A Warning TO Many
Some increasing Facts Regard
ing Health Sat les

Few people realize to what extent
their health depends upon the condi-
tion Of the kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases
of serious illness. makes a chemical
analysis of the patients urine. He
knows that unless the kidneys are
doing their work properly. the other
organs cannot be brought back to
health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused I'm any way, serious results
are sure to follow. According to
health statistics. Bright's disease
which is really an advanced form Of
kidney trouble, caused nearly ten
thousand deaths in 1909, in the state
of New York alone. Therefore, it be-
hooves us to pay more attention to
the health of these most important
organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has
had remarkable success as a kidney
remedy is DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root,
the great Kidney Liver and Bladder
Remedy.
The mild and healing influence of
this preparation is soon realized. II
stands the highest for its remarkable
record of cures.
If you feel that your kidneys re-
quire attention, and wish sample

COUNTY AID FOR
TUBERCULAR POOR
Trustees Hear Suggestion
That Hospital be Built
for Patients

A. V. Lesley George, secretary of
Trustees of the New Castle County
Hospital, resigned that position yes
terday and the trustees elected Ed
ward G. Clark to fill the unexpired
term. Mr.. George also resigned as
member of the board and his sue
cessor will be appointed on Tuesday
next by the Levy Court. John e. Tay-
lor, James G.. Shaw and three other
persons are candidates for the office.
Mr.. George has served six years and
never missed a regular or special
meeting. He was given a rising vote
of thanks by the trustees for the eff
cient manner in which he had dis
charged his duties.
DR.. Biggs resigned as coroner's ply
sician and DR.. Bastian was elected
to the position. DR.. Bastian resigned
month ago as he was candidate
for the Legislature.
Mr.. Stout, of the House Committee,
reported that accompanied by mem
bers of the Levy Court, the commit
tee had inspected the hospital and
found the patients happy and con-
tented and everything clean and in
perfect order. Upon recommends
tion of the committee new cots and
mattresses were ordered.
There was a general discussion
over the Hope Farm proposition.
The opinion was that the trustees
should build a separate building for
tubercular patients and not pay 81 a
week for each patient treated at

All the elements that furnish life
and supply nourishment to blood and
bone, muscle and nerve, and to every
organ and atom Of the human body,
are manufactured in and absorbed by
the stomach and part of the intes-
tines.
Take good care of the stomach
is good advice that all sensible peo-
pie should heed. If your blood is
bad and pimples and sores break out
on your body, in 80 per cent. of the
cases the stomach is TO blame.
II you are nervous, irritable, feel
dull, are depressed mentally, and feel
disinclined to exert yourself, make
up your mind the stomach is at fault
and treat it as promptly and intelli-
gently as possible.
MI-O-NA, the universal stomach
remedy, will cure any abnormal con-
dition of the stomach promptly and
surely.
The action of MI-O-NA on the deli
cate membrane of the stomach is so
prompt that the most painful distress
vanishes in a few minutes.
But MI-O-NA is more than a relief
giver. It is a prescription used by a
most learned and sensible physician,
