The Liver

When out of order, involves every organ OF
the body. Remedies for some other derange-
ment are frequently taken without the least
effect, because it is the liver which Is the real
source of the trouble, and until that is set
right there can be no health, strength, or
comfort in any part of the system. Mercury,
in some form, is a common specific for slug

wanamaker's Telegraph Scheme.

WASHINGTON, ID. C., Feb. 11.-Post-
master General Wanamaker, before the
house committee on post oilices and post
roads, to-day discussed fully the PROPOSE.
tion In his annual report for the estab
lishment by the government Of n limited
postal telegraph. He submitted a plan
providing for lease by the government
for ten years of wires for carrying on bus
mess and for the delivery Of kilograms by
carriers on the first delivery after receipt
OF telegram. The scheme, hc insisted, is
practical and free from objections.
MIR. Wanamaker proposed union Of post
and telegraph on basis that would not in
tcrfere to any appreclable extent with any
existing rights but would offer incalculable
services to classes not now enjoying the
use Of the telegraph TO any large extent.
Hc Is directed to negotiate and secure
leased wires, such Us great newspapers
have from city to city, or brokers or bank
crs have connecting their Offices and distant
cities, that the public might communicate
through their business oificcs-post offices
from city TO city, or by messages dropped
In their mail boxes. People had now, he
continued, IN their business offices clerKs
who could soon learn the tick Of the ma
chimes, carriers who Travelled over the
same streets traversed by telegraph boys,
and stamps for the payment That dis
pcnscs with book keeping and ali that was
needed TO build up the service was the
authority and the wire. He declared most
emphatically that such service was the
legitimate work Of the post oiiicc, and the
people were right IN stoutly demanding
telegraph facilities nj postal stations. Mr..
Wanamakcr then stated the provisions OF
the bill.
Nothing In tho act should bc so construed
us to prohibit any telegraph company from
performing u general business for the
public as the same Is now done. Postal
telegraph charges In any one State shall
not exceed 10 cents for messages OF twenty
words or less, counting address md sigma
lures, nor over Is cents for any distance
under i,iOJ miles, nor over 30 cents for
any greater distance. The rates and rul IS
and regulations are to be prescribed by
the postmaster. general. The bill also pro.
vidcs for the establishment OF u system OF
postal telegraph money orders ut rate
not TO exceed double the rate now charged
IN addition to double postal telegraph
charges.
