THE Morning News and Every

those who would block the build
ing of the dupont Boulevard, are
well described by the following
"A dog sat out in the midnight
chill and howled at the beaming
moon his knowledge Of music was
strickly nil and his voice was out
Of tune. And he howled and
howled as the hours went by, while
lodging the bricks we threw, till
the moon was low in the western
sky, and his voice was split in two.
And there wasn't thing at which
to howl over which a pup should
weep, and the course of the dog was
wrong and foul, for people were
wild to sleep. There are plenty of
men like that blamed fool hound,
who yell when there is nothing
wrong, disturbing the country with
senseless sOund-the pessimist's
doleful song
Repeated mis-statements Of facts,
and playing upon the credulity of
those who are not informed, is their
stock in trade to fight the greatest
means for public advancement that
Delaware has had offered in the
last fifty years.

All Delaware peach growers are

THE farmers have generally rec
ognized the fact that labor must be
better paid, and they have made cal
culations to meet this condition in
this present season. The farmer
has had splendid prices for corn,
potatoes, wheat and provender gen
orally, and the laboring men feel
that they are justified in demand
ing increased pay for their services.
Labor saving machinery is in part
taking the place of hand labor, and
this will lessen the cost of produc-

lists generally have learned.

A MESSAGE TO WOMEN
Who are "Just Ready to Drop"

When you are "jus, ready to drop"
when you feel so weak that you can
hardly drag yourself about-and be-
cause you have not slept well, you
get up as tired-out next morning as
when You went to bed, then you need
help right away.
Miss Lea Dumas writes from Ma
lone, y. Y, saying: Il vas in a badly
rundown condition for several week
but two bottles OF yinol put me on
my feet again and made me strong
and well. Vinol has done me more
good than all the other medicine |
ever took"
II the careworn. haggard men and
women, the pale. sickly children and
feeble old folks around here would
follow Miss Dumas example. they,
too, would soon be able to say that
Vinol. our delicious cod liver and iron
remedy. had built them up and made
them strong.
1t Is a wonderfully strengthening
and invigorating body-builder, and we
sell 1t under an ironclad guarantee
Of satisfaction. You get your money
back If Vinol does not help you.

WOOL TO BE TRANSPORTED
AS FOURTH CLASS FREIGHT

In a supplemental opinion on the
subject of the alleged unreasonable
rates and practices of transportation
of wool, rendered yesterday by the in
terstate commission, it was
held:
That a minimum carload weight of
$4,000 pounds prescribed by the com
mission imposes no unreasonable bur
den on the shippers, but actually in
~creases the ear efficiency and economy
of transportation.
That the contention of shippers that
baled and sacked wool should take
the same rates is not sustained.
That the rates on second wlool from
New Mexico to eastern destinations
are excessive and should be reduced.
That wool in the western territory
should take the fourth-class rate.
This decision finally disposes of
cases instituted by the railroad com
mission of Oregon and the National
Wool Growers association, which in
one form or another, have been pend
ing for several years.
