Postoffice Department..
Our postoffice department is in good con-
dition, and the exhibit made of it's opera
tions during the fiscal year ended June 80,
1885, ii allowance is made for imperfec-
tions in the laws applicable to it, is very
satisfactory. The total receipts during the
year were SS2, 400, ,20S. 40. The total ex-
penditures were 800, 626, 1876. "a, exclusive
of 81, $50, S9S.27 which was earned by the
Pacific railroad for transportation and
credited on its debt to the government.
There was an increase of receipts over the
previous year of $5, SIC, 0SO 81, or T. per
cent, and an increase of expenditures of
So, 1886, 1874. O2, or T. AZ per cent
The deficit for the last year, although
much less than that of the last and preced-
ing years, emphasizes the necessity for
legislation to correct the growing abuse of
second class rates, to which the deficiency is
mainly attributable. The transmission at
the rate of l cent a pound of serial libraries,
advertising sheets, "house organs" peri-
odicals advertising some particular
'house" or institution, sample copies and
the like ought certainly to be discontin-
ued.
The growth in weight of second class
matter has been from 100000, 900 pounds
in 1894 to 312, 900, 600 in 1895 and to al
most $40, 900, 900 in 1896, and it is quite
evident this increasing dHewback is fan
outstripping any possible growth of postal
revenues.

The work of the navy department and
its present condition are fully exhibited in

1t is so simple to be well that we won
der why there are so many sick people
Come to think about it, must be because
they don't know what's made them sick.
If they knew that, they could prevent
it. and when they We're sick. in some
cases cure themselves. But. so long as
we don't take more care of our health.
we shall always be more or less sick.
The simple rules of health are: Keep
clean, take exercise eat good food, scour
out your stomach.
This last means: Don't tolerate indi-
gestion. Cure it with Shaker Digestive
Cordial. A stomach full of undigested,
fermented. putrid food is the unhealthi-
est thing you can think of.
Half our diseases and troubles come
from the poisons of undigestcd food. More
than half of them could be cured with
Shaker Digestive Cordial.
More than half, because often when we
think we are sick We are only weak.
and a course of nouriShing food digested
