100000 FOR
The DELAWARE
WATERSHEDS YEAR

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
. WASHINGTON. ID. c., Feb. 1.-THE
prospect is bright that the entire ap-
preparation for rivers and harbors in
Delaware. contained in this sessions
River and Harbor Appropriation bill,
will pass both branches of Congress.
The bill has already passed the House
with every Delaware item in the bill
intact, and It is expected that IL will
be reported out of the Senate Commit
tee on Commerce within few days.
Although changes in the bill are not
made public until the bill is report
ed by the committee, a member Of
the Senate Committee ON Commerce
stated TO THE EVENING JOURNAL
correspondent today that the Della
ware appropriations have not been
altered i'm any way The committee
took up the consideration of the bill
last Wednesday aud although It may
be three or four days before il reaches
the floor of the Senate. it seems pretty
certain that the Delaware items will
go through as originally inserted in
the bill.
Delaware's share Of this years ap-
preparation exceeds 100000 and pro-
vides for some of the most import
ant river and harbor work done In the
State in years.

OIL HIGHER
THAN In LAST
TWENTY YEARS

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Feb. 11-For the
first time in almost 20 years, the oil
purchasing agencies on Friday quoted
$3.50 for Pennsylvania crude, that
price having being announced at the
opening OF the market. This was an
advance over the close Of Thursday
of three cents a barrel and was taken
as additional evidence that the avail
able supply of this particular grade
of crude had fallen far below the re-
quirements of the refneries. There
were no advances in the other grades
of crude oil quoted in Pittsburgh
The sensational rise in crude oil
has so unsettled the market for the Sc
curities Of oil companies that a num-
Der of brokers announced that such
SECURITIES would no longer be carried
on margin, which virtually places all
transactions in them on a cash basis.

TO RENEW COMPLEXION

If the excessive user Of cosmetics
only knew the impression her arti-
ficiality really makes upon others.
she would quickly seek means OF
gaining a natural complexion. Let her
acquire the mercolized wax habit, dis
carding make-ups entirely. and she
will soon have the kind Of complexion
that women envy and men admire.
It's so easy to get an ounce of mer-
colized wax at any drug store, use
nightly like cold cream and wash it
off mornings. And the results are so
remarkable. Gradually the lifeless
cuticle peels off, in almost invisible
haky particles. In a week or so
there's brand new complexion. clear
velYety-soft of girlish color and tex
ture. The treatment is so simple.

the wonder is that every woman
whose skin is withered. discolored,
rough, chapped, freckled or pimpled,
has not already adopted It.

TOuSiIine The throat is one OF
the most delicate parts
lures Of the body. 1t is also
coro TI,~o,@ one Of the most inn
>|OA ~ O'~ portant, and should
be given the best possible care.
The throat is the gateway to the body.
The air we breathe. the food we eat, the
liquids we drink, ali pass through it. 1t is
very easily affected by cold, strain, ex-
posure, etc., and Sore Throat is therefore
one Of our most common ailments.
Strangely enough, it is also one Of the
most neglected.
Sore ThIoat is a very serious matter,
for the whole system is in danger in
consequence Of it.
Every Sore Throat patient is a candidate
for Tonsilitis, Quinsy, Diphtheria and
other serious or fatal diseases, all of which
can be prevented by the timely cure of the
Sore Throat by the use of TONSILINE.
If taken in time a dose or two will do it.
TONSILINE is made to cure throat dis
eases and nothing else. 1t is the one
remedy for this purpose sold largely in the
United States. Every user endorses it;
every physician, knowing its virtues,
commends it.
The one most important thing to n
remember about TONSILINE is the GSM
TACT that it really does cure Sore
Throat. III
