Summer Complaint.

During the hot weather of the sum-
mer months some member Of almost
every family is likely to be troubled
with an unnatural looseness of the
bowels, and it is of greatest import
ance that this be treated promptly,
which can only be done when the med
icine is kept at hand. M rs. F.. F.

arrhoea Remedy as much as five years
ago. At this time ! had a very Sc
we're attack of summer complaint and
was suffering intense pain. One dose
relieved me. Other members Of my
family have since used it with like re-
suits. Advertisement

In the municipal budget for the ensuing
fiscal year, City Council set down an
item Of estimated receipts from the Water
Department of s325,00 For the opera
tive needs of the Water Department
during the year. Council made an appro-
prIauon Of $4,000 This means q
profit of $4,000, and it may exceed
this aIpount.
Had former conditions been continued,
there is no telling what profit nigh, have
been realized for the city from the opera
tions Of the Water Department In
years gone by, the city simply 'lcoted"
its revenues and kept it's nose TO the
grindstones IN respect of operating expens-
es. Then the original Water Commits
sion, headed by the late William I.
Porter, was created, and wonderful
results followed The department render

their eyes on this rich prize, and induced
q Republican Legislature TO restore former

WAS compelled to turn all IS revenues over
to the City Council and depend upon the
latter body for annual appropriations for
its maintenance and operation. The
change was for the bad, OF course, and has
not yet demonstrated any reason for its

note that the Water Department at
present is doing so sell although it might
have done much better under former

I'VE must cease 70 talk French, +"
the Kaiser tells the people Of Aix-la-
Chapelle, in q speech to their town coun-
Gil. land talk, rather, low German
This remark may be little cryptic to
Americans. 1t might well be a weakness
for Germans to talk French, but why
should it be enjoined upon them to talk 3
popular and diverse dialect the use of
which emphasizes the differences between
Germans? The significance Of the remark
is no doubt To be found in its suggestion
that Germanism, pure Teutonism in Ito
full measure. Is to be encouraged IN Ger
many at all costs No more International
ism, but Deutschland and It's dialects
uber allies
The remark may also mean that the
Kaiser is disposed TO put North Germany
over the South He has found his chief
support in the stolid North German
peasant and industrial who is willing TO be
butched for the Kaiser. The prevalence Of
the Low German dialects is chiefly in
Prussia, too But for his education, one
might call the Kaiser himself a Platt-
Deutscher
But what will the highest German
culture think Of this remark? 1T is very
much IS if President Wilson were TO come
out with recommendation that all the
American people should learn to talk
English with a Southern accent, in order
to make the whole country safe for dem0o-
racy.-Boston Transcript.

Delaware Breaks All Records.

The current official bulletin Of the
Red Croes national organization gives
special notice 10 the wonderful work Of
Delaware in the recent campaign to raise
another hundred million dollars for
Red Cross work. 1t says: The per
capita contribution OF the State of Deia-
ware to the Red Cross War Fund is more
than 50: Of the Ct ty of Wilmington. more

Of the campaign numerous methods of

Fighting Quality Of Our Soldiers.

From the day that soldiers Of the
United States took their places in the
ranks and engaged in active fighting
against the German horder in France and
Flanders, reports of their conduct and
efficiency have been uniformly of the most
complimentary character British and
French officers alike gave testimony to
their bravery, their kcenncss of percep-
ton in noting where the hardest blows
could be struck, and their quickness OF
reached the climax, this week, in public
declaration by London papers that the
American soldiers were equal to the best
that Europe has ever produced.
This praise is especially significant from
the fact that our nation. although 1t
evolved from some OF tho best and bravest
fighting the world ever knew. has never
been regarded as distinctly warlike
nation We won our Independence by
good fighting, and then established our
Republican form OF government But
since that time our wars have been few.
There was the War of 1912 and the
Mexican War, but with these two exccp-
tions, and our Indian wars, in which our
fighters displayed all the best qualities
of effective warfare We had no great
conflict until the War of the Rebellion
convIlsed the country, but, most for
tunately, ended in n triumph for the
Union cause. As 10 our war with Spain,
that was n trivial, and, as we now know,
an unnecessary resort to arms; but still
il served to give illustration of the fighting
qualities Of the American citizen when
called upon 10 fight for his country.
But the great European War, into
which we entered with reluctance, and
only when national honor required our
already has served TO call
the attention Of the world to the superior
qualities OF the American soldier m
battle Our troops in France and
Flanders had made a fine record for
bravery and effective service, and this
week comes special reference 10 the
splendid service rendered by those Sol
diers Of the sea, who arc generally desig-
mated as marines.
During this week our marines were
sent into vigorous service on the western
battle front And how they have fought.
They loved their work and carried II out
according 10 the Queens taste All
reports are uniform IN showing how they
not only repealed German assaults, but
made successful attack upon the Germans.
The Americans arc like tigers, WIS the
comment Of French officer upon their
work. Their officers have all they can
do to bold the men back
And here we spell defeat for the German
,oast~ The German military nacine,
n which soldiers work like automatons,
,annot withstand the vigorous attacks
Il British, French and American soldiers
rho have gone 70 the war from pat riotic
motives to say nothing Of a natural
owe for fighting and who havr initiative
md good common sense.
And now come our marines, who are
irving back the German horoes, and
covering Themselves with glory. IL Is
rood TO read about their work.
