MAIL MATTERS. Frequently we re-
ceive complaints that the package OF
OHIEFrAISs for a certain Office failed to
arrive until some days past due. We
feel in duty bound to see that the pa
per reaches each subscriber promptly
and to that end make a business Of en-
deavoring TO have the evil remedied
wherever possible. Occasionally some
understrapper in the postal service ex-
presses his disapproval, because OF
these enquiries as to cause of delay
but the superintendent Of railway mail
service goes ahead with them just the
same. To II lstrate the procedure We
give q recent case. On Saturday, May
20, We wrote Z. W. WaTfeld, superin-
tendent Of railway mail service, at St..
Louis, that the Ohouteau package had
not reached there by Friday night,
2Sth and that IL had been mailed
9th. Col, warfeld made enquiry and
by return mail ascertained that the
papers had reached Chouteau Satur.
day, 10th, from the north. The cor
respondence thus far accumulated went
10 the postmaster at Vlnita with an
enquiry as TO when the package was
dispatched from his office. His an.
swer was, "27th." Two postal clerks
were next interviewed by their superb
or aud the principal information elicit.
ed was that the OHIETTAIN was "over-
anxious TO get someone into trouble"
These gentlemen appear to feel hurt be-
cause anyone expects service Of them
between the Kansas and Texas lines.
The correspondence then went TO a
half dozen railroad officials Of greater
or less magnitude for information a
10 their connection with the delay,
They disclaimed any blame in the mat.
ter and here the investigation very un-
successfully terminated, Col War
field expressing the hope that there
would be no further delays. The cor
respondenee had accumulated until
when finally returned It embraced
twenty enclosures and while the neg
ligent one was not found We trust that
greater care viii result in the future
In the mean time we hope our readers
and the postmasters will report every
case Of delay as we are determined tS
DO our best 70 improve the mail serg
ice Of this section.

Land has already been purchased on

has also been found to be best suited
for that purpose.

A Sensible Family.

A family named Johnson, living in
Washington county, were all taken
down with hux in very aggravated
form. Having seen a notice in one OF
the country papers in regard to DR.,
Lytle's Elixir, the medicine was at
once sent for and although the delay
in procuring it came near proving fa-
tai in two OF the cases, yet a faithful
use of this well known remedy result
ed in the speedy control Of the disease
and restoration to health oil every
member of the family. AT time
when flux and all other bowel troubles
are so prevalent Lytle's Elixir ought
to be kept ready for use.
