SUDDEN DEATH
Caused by Disease Of the Kidneys.

The close connection which exists
between the heart and the kidneys is
well known nowadays. As soon as
kidneys are diseased, arterial tension is
increased and the heart functions are
attacked. When the kidneys no longer
pour forth waste, uremic poisoning
occurs and the person dies, and the
cause is often given as heart disease, or
disease of brain or lungs.
1t is a good insurance against such a
risk to send 10 cents for a sample
package of "Anuric the latest dis.
covery of DR.. Pierce. Also send a
sample of your water. This will be
examined without charge by expert
chemists at DR.. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel,
Buffalo, N. Y. When you suffer from
backache, frequent or scanty urine,
rheumatic pains here or there, or that
constant tired, worn-out feeling, it's
time to write DR.. Pierce, describe your
symptoms and get his medical opinion
without charge-absolutely free. This
"Anuric" of Doctor Pierce's is found
to be 81 times more active than lithia,
for it dissolves uric acid in the system

Simply ask for DR.. Pierce's Anuric

danger that the banding will have
been done in vain. The only way to
stop the invasion of pests is to keep

CITY EDITORS BACK RURAL
PROBLEMS

Wilmington newspaper men are
back of any movement that tends
to bring about closer relation
ship between the County and City.
This was shown very cOnclusively
at the meeting of the Delmarvia
Press Association at their meeting
at Hotel dupont on Saturday. The
petty differences and opposition
that may exist are certainly not a
part of the editorial policy of our
Wilmington papers. So imbued
are they with the spirit of mutual
help and cooperation, that some
of them fail to recognize any mis-
understanding. That such does
exist, we are assured in every
conversation we have with our
rural neighbors. This, we believe,
is a relic of the old political fights
fast dying out. SO bitter were
these contests, that views on all
relationship between city and
county were distorted.
Now that Wilmington offers her
cooperation, we rural folk must
give our aid unstinted. Mr.. Smell
lenburg's market proposition is
going to be big factor in bring
ing these forces together to our
mutual benefit. His idea has met
the generous approval of farm
organizations Our city news
paper have given columns of
space in description and COM
mendation. Surely here is an op-
portunity to start this spirit Of
practical cooperation. 1t is hoped
every farmer will lend his infu-
ence to putting this across. 1t
means a beginning, the result of
which means Delmarvia with
Snellenburg's biggest D.

HOW EASY IT IS TO GET A DEGREE

Delaware College at the present
time is victim Of an entirely wrong
educational system in vogue in
this country: in consequence she
grants degrees to men who are not
worthy of them. And as a furth-
er consequence she shovels out on
the nation just as do many other
colleges, men wearing her honors
who are mediocre in every re-
spect. This is a serious thing. 1t
makes you stop and ask what a
degree means when it is so easy of
attainment. You do not have to
stop long The answer is easy.
A degree from Delaware 1--WE
use Delaware merely as a concrete
example--the same is true Of hosts
Of the colleges) means that you
have attended clasases here for
four years and that you have man
aged to accumulate "C' grade
in all your courses. You may have
sat in your chair an inert mass, or
you may have been able to hand
the instructor back exactly what
he gave you (by the aid of certain
mysterious pieces of paper which

HOW MANY LIARS NECESSARY

Il have found out what was
going on in Mexico in a very
singular way-by hearing a
sufficient number of liars talk
about it"
The above statement made by
the President before body of
business men in New York, ex-
plains clearly the policy of the
Administration Flag insulted,
property destroyed, American cit
izens murdered, our citizens have
borne with a wearied patience
while the president investigated
the actual conditions. His former
Secretary of State, his personal
Representatives with all the pres
tige given by this government,
naval and army offers, at his or
ders, have made various reports.
Upon these liars and others, the
ledge of what is going on. Truly
president at last claims a know
"a singular way" to find out, A
"singular way" too, for a presi-
dent to acquaint body Of business
men Of the source of his long
sought convictions.
Now that, after three years, he
has found out, the American peo-
pie would like to know:
What is the sufficient number OF
liars to find out the information
upon which to base the Mexican
policy?
What is going on in Mexico?
What is the president going tc
do about it?
Who are the liars?
Pertinent questions these, the
answers to which we have a right
to know.

SHOP TALK

In every Printing Shop where
thought plays with the type and
brains are mixed with the ink,
William Morris is a Patron Saint
At the Golden Press, out in Cali
fornia, The Caxton in Massachus-
etts, the Roycroft at East Aurora,
the Mosher Press up in Maine,
mentioned in our equality Shop"
last Week-all stand uncovered at
the memory of William Morris,
Master Of The Kelmscott Press.
Yet his life work was to revive the
work of the Old Middle Age
Monks and Venetian printers.
Type, ornament, and color, he
made again printing an art as
well as a purely commercial agent
Of publicity.
Caxton, Caslon, Jenson, Gothic,
Cheltenham, are names familiar
to the student at the case. Types
designed by these Masters repre-
sent the best in printing today.
Type foundries are constantly
making new designs to catch the
eye for the bizarre, but the truly
great pieces of printing are with
these old designs.
IN our new equipment, we are
not adding any of the new tangled
types, but going back to the de-
signs of the Masters of the Art.
Ornaments and borders can be
bought by the pound, but in order
that our printing may be distinc-
tive, we have them made, accord
ing to our own sketches. A few of
our customers have designs to be
used on their work alone, Just to
give it touch of originality.
With this type, with machinery
unsurpassed anywhere, with some
study and thought, with enthus-
lasm and lots of work, the boys
and girls in the shop have done
some very creditable work. This
work has gone out and made good.
Further than that, it has brought
us more work.
Here in this new shop, we ex-
oect to do more work, better work
than heretofore. Just today, one
OF our men was in Philadelphia
discussing a piece of work with
an artist. We will put it across
too. Rather, the kids in the shon
will.
Our friends in Newark have
helped us wonderfully with a
boost, here and there. Our enc
mics have helped, too, though not
as much as you would think.
Knocks are a good thing but so
many of ours lack pep"
But what we are getting at is
thls-we want to make this build

SOn-bits of paper which contain
correct answers to questions which
you have excellent reasons to
think will be asked because you
have seen the examination papers
beforeD but in spite of all this
you may not have an original
thought in your head. I was going
to use the word "brain," but it is
obviously not applicable. Never
theless, when June comes around,
you are charitably given your di-
ploma, and you go out into the
world a college man."
No college should send a man
out carrying his degree if he has
MT any brains. It's a pity he has
MT; but that's his misfortune and
it can't be helped. If he has mana
ged to make the necessary grades
by cheating, he should not be given
his diploma under any considera-
ton. When the colleges of this
country begin to make it q more
difficult task to earn their honors,
there will be some satisfaction in
saying I'm college graduate" !"
AS things stand now (and we are
thinking of Delaware as very in
dicative of it alb the statement
means nothing.

feet, and is perfectly hardy any
where. The flowers are white,
borne in immense pyramidal pan
icles nearly a foot in length. 1t
commences Towering in midsum-
mer and continues until late in
the Fall. The plant should be
cut back each Spring. at least
half a seasons growth, as the
flowers are borne on new wood,
and are much finer when the
plant is treated in this way.
