past, and take them to ParkerSburg and

They are then returned and frequently

never get them"
Now We were aware that it required
~ hours or more for the morning papers
of this city to reach their subscribers on
the Parkersburg brarch because of the
time schedule and mail arrangements
now existing between Wheeling and
Parkersburg and which works to great
disadvantage to all persons dong bust
ness between the two sections. But
when there is further annoyance
imposed upen us by the dereliction q
duty on the part of the Route Agents, it
is indeed a just cause for complaint, and
compeIs US to ask, is there no remedy?
The Postoflice Department should, as a
matter of simple justice to large num-
Der Of people look into and correct this
nuisance.

urged that he was the subject of mira

for twenty years, and then he became
convinced that the promise OF the text
would BIZ fulfilled to him in answer to
special prayers. For this abiding fnith
he gave the credit to Miss Moseman, but
he explained that the result was an an
swer TO his prayers, and not, as generally
believed, TO hers. Her announcement to
him was that his lameness was to be cur

On Jan. your correspondent bad the
rare fortune to attend an examinat ION

for outdoor work, and a small retreat for
rainy weather and little jobs. This was
the institution which the old settlers
proudly, called their school. The educa-

entering, I found the teachers busily en-
gagged in explaining to a dull-eyed boy
the queer operation of taking four from
