Cascarets Insure
Inside Cleanliness
The Millions of Cascaret users new
err have Headache, Constipation,
Biliousness or Sick Stomach.

It is more necessary that you
keep your Bowels, Liver and
Stomach clean, pure and fresh
than 1t is to keep the sewers and
drainage of a large city free from
obstruction.
Are you keeping clean inside
with Cascarets-or merely fore
ing passageway every few days
with salts, cathartic pills or castor
oil! This is important.
Cascarets Immediately cleanse
and regulate the stomach, remove
the sour, undigested and fer1hent-
ing food and foul gases; take the
excess bile from the liver and
carry out of the system the de-
composed waste matter and poi
son in the intestines and bowels.
No odds how badly and upset
you feel, a Cascaret tonight will
straighten you out by morning.
They work while you sleep. A 10
cent box from your druggist will
keep your entire family feeling
good for months. Don't forget
the children-their little insides
need a good, gentle cleansing, too.

Allegheney Avenue

According to the annual report Of
Major Herbert Deakyne, a 2S-foot
channel has been provided from AL
legheny avenue, Philadelphia. to the
sea, and improvements to the channel
between this city and Trenton made
at cost of $4,000. During the
year, 100000 cubic yards of ma
terial were removed by dredges.
Major Deakyne's report says that
the Atlantic Gulf and Pacific Company

of 1852 feet Of timber work and 272
feet of embankment. The total ex-
penditura for this work was 16,199.25.
In addition, a channel IL feet deep at
mean low water and 300 feet wide be-
tween the upper end Of Petty Island
and Fishers Point dyke was finished
to afford access to the Camden wa

EYES OF THE STATE
ON MAYOR HOWELL
Sound Words Of Advice Given
by a Dover News
paper

The Dover Index of yesterday says;
Just at present the public gaze of
Delaware is focused on Wilmington
and its Mayor. Not during his en-
tire official term will Mayor Howell
have any work Of half so much i'm
portance as that of appointing the
members of the Public Utilities Com
mission. The success of that COM
mission will depend directly upon its
personnel More than that, the sue
cess Of that commission must have a
strong influence upon the answer 20
the question, Shall there be a Public
Utilities Commission for the Slater"
Mayor Howell has, therefore, the
chance of making history.
There is no doubt whatever that
there is a strong sentiment in this
county in favor of the regulation Of
public utility corporations, but this
sentiment has been attended with a
fear that the creation of a commits
sion for such regulation would result
in the capture of the commission by
the corporations. II Mayor Howell
appoints reactionaries on the Will
mington commission, he will intensity
the fear to which we have alluded
and this may result in the turning
back Of the political clock in Della
ware, for a time at least In the long
run, Of course, the people must and
VIII have their way, but Mayor How
ell has an opportunity of speeding
the accomplishment Of this end. VIII
he seize the opportunity? II is not
enough for him to appoint honest anC
respectable citizens. OF such stuff
are made the friends Of special inter-
ests. He should appoint men who
besides honesty and responsibility
/ possess an interest in the welfare OF
the people. He should not, of course
appoint demagogues or unbalanced
radicals, but he should appoint mer
who have some ideas above the rights
OF private property In short, hs
should appoint men who are in favor
of the program of advanced liberal
ism.
