While recuperGting from his ailment
at Occoquan, Green will be required to
send 80 cer.ts a day to the court to be
turned over to Mrs. Byrd for the support
OF the seven children.
Richard II. Frye, who was also before
the court on a charge OF nonsupport pre-
ferred by his wife, Mrs Kate Frye,
declared he had been sick for several
weeks and had been unable to contribute
to the support of Mrs. Frye and their
two children, but was greatly surprised
when Judge De Lacy committed him
TO the Washington Asylum Hospital for
treatment
Il have been sick" said Frye, but
don't want to go to the hospital. I want
to work. I am getting better each day,
and I can easily find employment"
But testimony showed that Frye had
been drinking heavily and spending his
wages for liquor. so the court decided
that the best thing would be to place
Frye out of the reach of alcoholic stimu
lants. Frye pleaded and argued with
Judge De Lacy to change the decision,
but the court remained firm.

JUDGE DE LACY SHINES
IN PEACEMAKER'S ROLE
Brings to an End the War of Youthful Stone Throwers
Who kiss and Make Up" Right in Court.

Joining hands on the dais OF the Juve-
rile Court yesterday at the instance Of
Judge De Lacy, Johnny Jones, aged
eight, and Joseph Cooper, aged nine. both
of whom had engaged in a stone battle
Monday, begged each others pardon for
their actions, and declared that in the
future they would be friends
Johnny was brought before the court
for throwing a stone and breaking a win
dow in William w. Kimmelrs house. and
Joseph was before the Judge as a witness
to the deed. 1t seems that one Of the
stones thrown by Johnny while engaged
in battle with Joseph went wild and
crashed through the window
During the recital of the tale by Joseph,
Johnny stood shyly by the side of the
judge sucking his thumb When the
story was completed, Judge De Lacy
asked Johnny If IT were a true version,
and the youngster answered in the af-
firmative with a nod of the head.
We'll then, Johnny" said Judge De
Lacy softly. "how would you like some
The Washington herald., 1911-08-02

one to throw a stone at your house and
break a window? Did you ever hear the
golden commandment, DO unto others as
you would that they should do unto
you?"
Johnny was rather uncertain whether
he had or not, but finally decided in the
affirmative.
Now, boys" resumed Judge De Lacy.
the war is over. Shake hands and tell
each other that you are sorry for what
happened"
The youngsters, after long pause, re-
luctantly and bashfully Joined hands. and
muttered in an undertone that they
were sorry"
But that was not quite all. Mrs. Lydia
Jones, mother of militant John, was close
beside her son, and the court ordered
Johnny and his maternal parent to re-
pair TO the back room on the second
story of the court building, where the
latter should give the young offender a
spanking that he would long remember.
The order of the court was carried out
most faithfully. as Johnny himself can
testify.

one of stucco construction. Besides
these there are a number of others
Tor which plans and specifications

BIG DEALS IN
REAL ESTATE
Prosperous Week for Agents
$4,000 Involved.

Several large transfers, involving
about $4,000, featured the real es-
tate market this week. 1t has been
n OF the most prosperous weeks
for local agents in some time.
The transfer of fourteen lots In
the Westminster tract, by George
Adair and William D. Voorhees,, to
Carl c. Christensen and liver c. Os-
tergaard, for a consideration said to
have been $40, was perhaps the
most important sale. 1t carried
weight in the real estate world be-
the sale price was considera-
bly, in advance of the amount said
to have been paid by Messrs. Adair
and Voorhees, for the parcel.
Two or three sales of large and
finely located residences has increas-
ed the confidence of holders of SIM
liar Investments, or parties plann-
ing to build on pleasantly located
tracts, with the same object in view.
One of the dwellings sold is located
at 271 Market street, known as n
of the Henry cottages LYMAN
Friedman and DR.. F. c. Henry was
the original owners, and Mrs. Mar
garet Layden is the purchaser.
The latest member of the police
department to invest in a home is
Patrolman Gutowski. He has pur-
chased a fine house at 33S-A High
street and Will reside there, after
minor improvements are made. The
sale was made through S. Brody
Brothers.
Suburban tracts, being developed
by local men, are selling very slow
ly, it Is reported. Investors hand
ling recently improved tracts In
these sections, will find the coming
two months unusually dull. Every
summer finds 1t that way, with a

'Cascarets' Splendid
for Elderly Folks
The rule for old people is-One Cas-
caret daily. The bowels, like
other muscles, grow less
active with age-They
need help.

Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help, else they
suffer from constipation. The condi-
ton is perfectly natural. 1t is just
as natural as it is for old people to
walk slowly. For age is never so
active as youth. The muscles are
less elastic. And the bowels are
muscles.
So all old people need Cascarets.
And most of them need them daily.
One might as well refuse to aid weak
eyes with glasses as to neglect this
gentle aid to weak bowels. The
bowels must be kept active. This Is
important at all ages, but never so
much as at sixty.
Age is not a time for harsh physics.
Youth may occasionally whip the
bowels into activity. But a ia3A can't
be used every day. What the bowels
Of the old need is a gentle and ma
turaI tonic. One that can be con-
stantly used without harm. And there
Is no matter of choice here. The only
such tonic is Cascarets and they cost
