board TO EXAMINE
HIGH School PLANS

At the meeting of the Board Of Edu-
cation this evening, one OF the matters
that probably will be taken up is bids of
the six architects for the plans for the
proposed addition to the Wilmington
High school, which viii cost about
Sl50.OO0.
The members Of the hoard, sitting as
a committee Of the whole last week, in
spected plans. but at this time there
were only seven members present. 1t is
understood that no decision was reached,
however. AZ this time, as the members
wished 20 have full board meeting
President samuel II. Baynard was
asked whether there appeared to be any
contention over the submission Of the
bid by the Philadelphia architect and
whether this would have anything TO do
with the awarding Of the contract for
drawing plans to the successful COM
petitor. he replied that there was no
contention and that the successful COM
petitor would be named on the merits
Of the plans submitted.
The adyisabilty Of purchasing several
lots adjoining school houses will be dis
cussed at the meeting.

How old is Babylon?

How old is Babylon?
Veteran of Ringing Brothers train
load Of elephants he is thought to he
the oldest OF his species in captivity.
biologists who have studied him dis
agree. Some maintain that he is al
most 800 years old while others think
that he was born within the past two
centuries These students have eX-
amined Babylon with X-rays and
counted the rings on his trunk after
tho fashion of naturalists when deter
mining the age of giant trees.
Babylon was the first elephant
owned by Ringing Brothers and trav-
oled with them more than 80 years
ago when what is now an 80 railroad
car enterprise was a struggling wagon
show. Now he is one Of more than 40
of his kind who make up the Ringing
heavy squadron" During Babylon's s
period OF service he has visited every
State in America many times. has
crossed the Atlantic four times and
travelled over a million miles. How
many peanuts he has eaten Is a
question more difficult of solution than
the problem OF his age.

BABYLON, WHO SOME SAY is ALMOST 300 YEARS OLD

In the days when Babylon alone
shared the elephantine honors with
Ringing Brothers. he was used to
test bridges. When the wagon caravan
came TO one of doubtful construction
the big fellow would advance upon Il
with obvious caution. His method of
examination, such as swaying from
side to side and trying out the sta
hility Of planking with his trunk. was
as reliable as that of an engineer.
Babylon is still active as trick ele-
phant and is a member Of the largest
of the FIVE herds Of Jungle performers
which will be seen here on Saturday,
May Is.
True. he Is no such adept at dancing
the tango as some of the younger
pachyderms hut he is the arknowl-
edged premier tuba player Of the en-
tire assemblage and none can juggle
as heavy weights as he. AS a reward
OF long service, Babylon is this sea-
son one of the favored company Of
richly caparisoned elephants who ap-
pear in the third act of the new 1850
character spectacle of Solomon and
the Queen of Sheba.

Eat Less Meat and Take Salts for
Backache or Bladder Trouble.

baNAaNhC VI DlAuuiL
Uric acid in meat eNcites the kidnews,
they become overworked; get sluggish,
ache, and feel like Jumps of lead. The
urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irri-
tated. and you may be obliged to seek re-
lief two or three times during the night.
When the kidneys clog you must help
them flush of the body's urinous waste
or you'll be a real sick person shortly.
At first you feel dull misery in the
kidney region, you suffer from backache,
sick headache, dizziness, stomach gets
sour, tongue coated and you feel rheu-
matte twingcs when the weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces of Jad Salts; take tablespoon
ful in a glass of water before breakfast
for a few days and your kidneys win
then act fine. This famous salts IS
made from the acid of grapes and lemon
Juice, combined with lithia, and has been
used for generations 10 clean cloggcd

activity, also to neutralize the acids in

ritation, thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
iure; makes delightful eifervescent
lithia water drink which everyone should
take now and then to keep the kidneys
clean and active. Druggists here say
they sell lots Of Jad Salts TO folks who
believe in overcoming kidney trouble
while it is only trouble.

State Peach CROP

Reports from all sections of the

peach crop is safe and that there is
also good prospect OF other crops.
Factories which manufacture baskets

and this is a pretty good indication
that the outlook for a crop is good.
