Would you bereave us of the more
than Cruikshanks. or Reuhen's paint
ings? such ''before taking and after
taking?" Would you rob rs of the
elegant and classic literature that
adorns our barns and fences? such as
''corns and all other female COM
plants cured by a single applica-
tion?' 1 ask, in all honesty. how
are we TO entertain and instruct our
curious and industrious crowds, on
our street corners If you hush the
soothing song Of "Radway's Ready
Relief" All, gentlemen, 1 grew
happy when Hornbrook comes. ] am
enthusiastic over his wonderful works.
Who cures bad breath and the bald
medicines of old age? Hornbrook.
Who cures cancer and the wonderful
and awful cataclysms of nature?
Hornbook. Who cures congenital
mental weakness, called idiotcy?
Nobody but Hornbook.
Then l ask:
Who dares to snub Jock Hornbook's
skillful art,
That scorns ever deaths envenomed dart?
Do fangs of scorpions hold you on the
rack?
You'll "smile" while Hornbrook puts the
plaster on your back.
Delirium comes--it may be 'tremen's
grasp,
1t may be cholic, or lambago's ills
Cholera morbus, or the gout's fell rasp.
Ii you but take old Hornbook's oliver
pills.
You'll dream, as if sweet Lethe's stream,
Or sweeter, Herper's perfumed breath
Had stole away the pangs of death.
What, gentlemen! kill Hornbook! kill
the worlds one hope?
Kill almanacs, with all their Jokes?
Elixirs, salve, and even soap? No, no!
Kill man, and bird and every beast,
But spare, oh spare US him at least.

A Story of TWO Journalists.

A story is told of a young sophie
more, the newly appointed editor Of a
college paper in New England, who,
on his way home in vacation some
years ago, made the acquaintance of a
quiet gentleman on u railroad train.
"Englishman, 1 perceive" airily be-
gan our college boy. The stranger
bowed. "You must find much to amuse
you in this country. We are so very
crude, so newr' said the sophomore,
who was an Anglo-maniac. "Therc is
one thing, however, on which / flatter
myself we compare favorably with
John Bull-our newspapers. The jour-
nalists of this country rank high, sir
high" Having received q civil reply,
he continued: 81 am myself an edi-
tor. Like to look at n copy of our pa
perP" pulling out a small sheet from
his pocket. "Now, you have no idea.
nobody not in the profession can have
any idea-of the labor and mental
strain involved in that small sheet.
Keep il. There may be a paragraph
or two in it that is worth considering,
even if IL does come from this side of
the water" His companion changed
his place soon afterward, and the
amused conductor, who had overheard
tho conversation, said to tho young
man: do you know who that WASP"
emo" 1t was Mr.. Walter, OF tho Lon
don Times.
The Mankato free press. [volume] (Mankato, Blue Earth County, Minn.) 1879-1924, 1884-03-21

In our last issue we noted that Mr..
Wakefield had introduced bill in the
House of Representatives "to simplify
and economic the collection and
management of the postal revenue"
We have since received a printed copy
of the bill, which provides that the
Postmaster General be authorized and
directed, within six months after the
passage of the bill, to select from among
the first-class and free delivery offices
of the country such q number as in his
discretion he may deem adequate, to be
known as "depositories" and depots
for postal funds and other postal de-:
vices. 1t further provides that he shall
divide the u. S. into districts conven-
lent to those depots and the sub-offices
in those districts shall thereafter de-
post all postal funds with, and receive
all supplies from, these depots, The
The Mankato free press. [volume] (Mankato, Blue Earth County, Minn.) 1879-1924, 1884-03-21

bill further provides that when the de-
pots have cen selected and the limits
of the Districts designated, that the
Postmaster General shall supply
stamps and envelopes to these depots
only, and then on the weekly requisi-
ton therefrSm, which requisition shall
specify the amount on hand, and the
estimated amount required. 1t is also
provided tlat postmasters at the de-
positories supply the postmasters of
their respective districts on cash requi-
sitions only also that the postmasters
so supplied shall not keep on hand n
greater supply than is demanded for Il
period of three days, unless such sup
ply be under the value of five dollars,
and that all box-rents, etc, shall be
forwarded to thesdistrict depository ut
the end of each quarter. The Post
master General is to have authority to
make all needful rules for the manage
ment of the depots.
Should this bill pass il will reduce the
number of clerks now in the postoiiice
department and auditors Office l75,
and require that II cash business be
done in stamps with postmasters. This
will save bad debts of the present credit
system, the auditors report showing
$1,000 for last year. There are now in
suit upwards of $2l0,0O0, the expense
for which litigation cannot be less than
$1,000 per year. Besides, the large
number of stamps which IL credit sys-
TEN temps many postmastcrs TO keep
on hand, results yearly in at least $25,-
600 loss by burglaries and fires. Mr.
Wakeficld's bill will save to the govern
mcnt in clerk hire alone at least $3.50
600, which is IN item entitled to con-
sideration.
