SPRAYS, gargles, swabs are not
- fully effective because their ac-
ton lasts only a short time, and be-
cause they can usually be used only
night and morning.

Old HebreU Monarchy

The kingdom of Judah was given to
that part of the Hebrew monarchy
that remained after the revolt Of the
ten tribes in 975 B. c. 1t comprised
the tribes Of Judah and Benjamin, to-
gether with some Dante and SimeOnite
cities, and had Jerusalem for its cap
ital. The kingdom of Judah was ruled
over by twenty kings, and lasted until
5S8 B. c., when Nebuchadnezzar cap
tured Jerusalem, destroyed and plum
dered the temple, and carried the in
habitants into captivity. When Baby
lon fell under the conQuering arms Of
Cyrus, that monarch permitted the
Jews to return to their homes and re-
build their temple From that time
the Jews remained a subject nation
and were ruled over successfully by
the Perslans, MacedOnians, Egyptians
and Romans.-Kansas City Star.

Grief in Animals

A man or woman who loses some
dear one is overcome with deep sor-
row, remembering only the admirable
qualities of the one lost. but this feel
ing is soon sOftened by a multitude of
external impressions and influences
so that sorrow gives way to melan-
choly, which in its turn dilninishes.
Not so in the case of many animals
These not only retain their grief much
longer, but there are cases in which it
lasts as long as life itself.
The cat will swim after her kittens
which some cruel man is trying to
drown. The story of the dog who
starves to death on the grave of his
master is no fable. A stone In
the Paris dogs cemetery is thus in
scribed: HE was so intelligent that
he might have been taken for a
human being-but that he was faith
full"

one Utility Commission in Delaware
the Wilmington board, which has only
judicial power to determine questions
of service and services charges with
in the corporate limits of the city Of
state service by public utilities has
been brought to the fore by the grant
ing of franchises to bus lines operat-
ing between Wilmington and points
in other States. The right to grant
these franchises and dictate the
routes over which these buses shall
operate has been assumed by the
Street and Sewer Directors, the Will
ningtOn Board of Public Utility Com
missioners being ignored.
As a result, it is said, the whole
question of interstate transportation,
a matter now pending before Con-
gress, is involved, and the gradual
elimination of competition between in
terstate bus lines and the railroads
had converted opponents of the pro-
posed measure ito its support. 1t is
proposed to introduce at the next ses-
sion of the legislature a bill similar
to the previous ones, with some mod
ifcations to meet conditions which
have arisen since the measure first
was introduced.

ASK SURVEY FOR INDIAN RIVER
Congressman Houston Says Present
Project Is Out of Date

Congressman Robert G.. Houston, of
Georgetown, says that he IS gather
ing facts with a view of having a re-
survey of Indian River. The old sur
vey of that project he pointed out, is
many years old and out of date, and
under the law, after five years, sur
vey of this character is considered out
of date.
Senators Bayard and DUPONT, Con-
gressman Houston have received COM
munication from L. c. Faucet, in re-
gard to bring about the reopening of
the Indian river inlet, which was clos
ed by filling sand last year. Mr.Hous-
ton said that he was looking up the
original survey for this project to find
out if it included the inlet. If not, he
would endeavor to have the river and
harbor committee order a new survey
to include the inlet.
] The hearing held last January al
MillsborO, was not by order of Con
/ gress, but was more of a private ma.
tlre. 1t was said that the report was
not considered favorably by war de.
pamment officials.
MIR. Houston was successful in hav
ing ordered a resurvey of the Della
ware breakwater and he is hopefu
that he will be able to have a nev
survey made of Indian river to in
clude the inlet.

A prisoner was in the dock on a seri-
Gus charge of theft, and, the case hav-
ing been presented to the court by

magistrate.
'NO, sir"
"Do you want a lawyer to defend
your case, thenP
mot partickler, sir"
"Well, In these circumstances, what

Food Transport Costly

Many kinds of food are shipped
from the Pacific to the Atlantic coast
in specially made express cars, which
are attached to passenger trains and
run on fast-time schedules. The cost
Of building one of the passenger ex-
press refrigerator" cars is officially
stated to be not far from S4,5OO. The
California shipper who fills one of
these cars with butter and ships it to
New York or Philadelphia does so at
an express charge of about 81 600. The
cost of shipping a car of this type
filed with fruits and vegetables from
the Pacific to the Atlantic usually
runs from 5000 to $500.

One day, at the table of the late
Ir. Pease (dean of Ely), just as the
cloth was being removed, the subject
of discourse happened to be that of
an extraordinary mortality amongst
lawyers. "We have lost" said a gen
tleman, mot less than six eminent
barristers in as many months" The
dean, who was quite deaf, rose as his
friend finished his remarks, and gave
the company grace: For this and
every other mercy, the Lords holy
