One Of the most encouraging signs OF the ad-
vent Of better days for Ireland is to be found In
the large number OF railroads that have been
opened Of late, or now on the verge OF COM
pletion. In nearly every case these new lines
have been built either in part or entirely at the
expense Of the Government. the aim being to
relieve the congested districts OF Donegal Mayo
Galway and Kerry. 1t is supertiuous to point
out the many advantages which must arise from
the construction OF these lines. among the prin-
cipal being the possibility afforded thereby Of
getting agricultural and farm products to mar
ls.t with some hope OF their bringing remunera-
tive prices.

The postoffice at Washington re-
ceives numberless letters from abroad
which have failed of delivery on ac-
count of badly written addresses,
These are handled by experts, who
exhibit wonderful skill in deciphering
them. Miss Clara Richter, in charge
of the foreign division, is a famous
hand at such work. The spelling on
some of the envelopes is amazing.
For example, "Susarmeri'' is intend
ed for Sault Ste Marie. That is a
comparatively easy one. "Schines-
cham, Toulocontus" is Chinese Camp,
Toulumne County. "Grim Pante-
wula" is meant for Green Point ave-
nue.. Memory is an important eie-
ment in s'blind reading" as this work
is called. Miss Richter got hold of
letter the other day with a peculiar
name and nothing else on IL except
"America." She remembered that
twenty years or more ago person of
the same name had been found at
Grand Rapids, Mich. The letter
was forwarded to that point and
reached the intended recipient. On
one occasion the local postofiice of
Washington did not know how to de-
liver letter addressed to "Teserero

tised as for "Gen. Teserero. Miss
Richter preceived at once that it was

tanned considerable sum of mouey.

Open Air Meetings.

No one can question the great spiritual
good which has been accomplished in
open air meetings. But it is also an es-
tablished fact that there is great danger
of bodily harm to be received at such
gatherings. Standing on cold ground,
exposed to chilling winds, or talking in
the damp evening air, frequently starts a
cold which. unless promptly treated re-
suits seriously. For all the purposes of
a coughmedicine and as an anodyne ex-
pectorant, to allay irritation, prevent
coughing, and check the progress of a
cold, Ayers Cherry Pectoral leads all
