If experience has proved, in the domain
of medicine, anything conclusively, it is
that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters will not
only eradicate from the system every
vestige of the miasma- born complaint,
but effectually defend residents and tenn
porary sojourners in malaria scourged
localities against it. There is a general
concensus OF opinion among medical men,
no less than in the minds of the public,
on this point. Not only on this continent,
but in the tropics where malarial COM
plants assume their most virulent type
this incompatible medicinal safeguard is
universally used and esteemed. Dyspep-
sia, biliousness, constipation, debility
and kidney trouble are all thoroughly
remediable by the Bitters.

a Chance for Improved Service IL
Sacramento County

a Chance for Improved Service in
sacramento County.
Some days ago it was announced that
Postmaster-G General Wanamaker would
request Postmasters at every county seat
in the United States to visit each post
office in their respective counties. A rep
resentative of the RECORD UNION called
on Postmaster Coleman to learn more of
the object of the proposed visits, what
was expected to be accomplished, and
such other information as would be OF
interest TO the public. Mr.. Coleman
stated that he had received such letter,
and had notified Mr.. Wanamaker of his
Willingness 20 comply with his request.
He or Assistant Postmaster Erlewine
would visit the Offices in Sacramento
County from September I'D to October
10th. So
AS to the object of the visits, Mr. Wana-
maker desires to improve the postal serv-
ice and has adopted this course to
acquaint the department with the condi-
ton of each postotfice III the United
States. He has evidently given this mat
ter much thought, and feels confident
That great good must follow proper
efforts to encourage and instruct Post
masters by interchange of experiences,
and opportunities to acquaint the de-
partment with the wants of each
locality"
A report is to be made on each Office.
and broad enough to enable the Post
master General to judge of the compet-
ency of the Postmasters as well as other
matters, such as convenience of locations
of offices for the people, cleanliness,
order, keeping Of the accounts, improve
ments in the service made during the
last year, growth Of the business in the
past twelve months. From the reports
each Office will be given a standing on
the records of the department, whether
perfect, excellent, good, fair or poor
=. If the postal service III Sacramento
County is not satisfactory to the people
they will now have an opportunity OF
making their wants known, and should
promptly make such suggestions to their
Postmaster as they think best calculated
to improve the service.

Now that so many people amtss
themselves by writing novels, a few
hints concerning the methods TO be OBJ
served are quite In order The first
requisite. of course, is TO make your
characters as unlike real men and wom-
en- as possible The heroine, II not
really beautiful. must possess a charm
of expression which instantly fascinates
all who behold it.
The advantage Of this description is
that nine out Of ten Of your readers
will think that it fits themselves, and
will be pleased accordingly. She must
have several lovers. all handsome and
desirable in every way. CHs marry the
most eligible among them; this, as
every one knows is what the flesh and
blood girl always does. which explains
why marriage is not failure.
II an artist is introduced, give him
long hair and knickerboekers. Ed
srIJ aunts are always ''maiden" and
Gscentric. Be sure TO describe a char
tnter of gentle birth as a coarse, bad
nan or a driveling idiot; it is not TO
be expected that generations OF culture
can produce a gentleman; on the con-
trary, he must spring from the poorer
classes. and though not irreprOaehable
in the matter of personal cleanliness,
In true nobility of soul towers over the
minion of fortune whom he disdains a.
an effeminate knight Of the bath.
A detective is always outdone in his
Swn line of business by an amateur i'm
the same. A diary is an excellent We
hicle for conveying incriminating IN
formation which otherwise could nos
possibIy have been discovered. Docu-
meuts. when intended to be destroyed,
