RURAL MAIL DELIVERY.

future. Already in number of places
in the state the scheme has been tried
by the post Office department and
proved success and lonia county will
soon have a trial of it.
Congressman VIM. Alden Smith vis-
tied lonia recently and asked Post
master Smith TO canvass several routes
with a view of selecting the best one to
try the experiment Two or three
routes are already proposed, any one OF
which would make desirable territory
for the trial The proposed delivery
is looked upon with much favor

partment will be in the district about
September first to establish four pro-
posed routes in Kent county, and as
Congressman Smith desire is to give
lonia chance he will come here at the
same time.
The delivery of course will be made
from the lonia postotice, one trip being
made daily by "a carrier who will be
practically travelling postofiice. He
will make "A miles day. The service
will be of great value to the farmers
along the route, as the carrier will
carry supplies and at the same time

will be put in operation at once, part
ot which will be the selection of a car

While Drinking Water From "a Well at
Portland After Dark

Mrs. Lottie Calkins of Ionia, who or
ganized the Royal Circle in Portland
last October, is very ILL., While here
Mrs. Calkins stopped at the home of
Horace Stafford. One night she went
out to the well after dark and took II
drink OF water. A few minutes after
ward she felt strange sensation in her
throat, as il something alive was strug-
Cling within. Mrs. Calkins sickness
dates from that time. She continued to
grow worse and now her body is so
emaciated that she Is but shadow of
her former self. Doctors disagreed as
to the cause of the trouble but Mrs.
Calkins has always insisted that there
was something alive in her throat. Her
tongue became cracked and her suffer
ing was almost unbearable. She finally
induced her physician to try to poison
the reptile, for such she firmly believed
1t to be. Mrs. Calkins was right. The
process Of poisoning has developed the
presence of lizard, about six inches In
length, and portions of the animal have
already been recovered. While the
poison was being administered the liz
ard would bite the lining of the throat
as the drug began to take effect. The
recovery of Mrs. Calkins is still a mat
ter of grave doubt, and Dr. McClurg
will examine the case this week
Mr.. Stafford has one of the best wells |
OF water in the village and is at loss
to understand how the lizard ever got
into it, 1t should serve as terrible
warning to people who are in habit of
drinking water in the dark Portland

THANKSGIVING DAY.

Thanksgiving Day as now observed,
Is an american institution. In Eng
land, however, it has long been OBJ
served as Harvest Home Festival.
In this respect it corresponds closely
with the old jewish Feast OF Weeks.
The Episcopal church in America OBJ
serves the day on the first Thursday
In November, unless some other is
appointed by the civil authority.
1t appears from our national his
tory that the firSt Thanksgiving Day
in this country was observed in South
Carolina i'll 1851. The day was ap-
pointed by the Government us a day
ct public rejoicing over the unexpect-
deliverance from starvation, by the
timely arrival Of supply ship bear
ing provisions.
In June 1882 the Colonies of Macs
achusetts and Plymouth held day
OF rejoicing over some favorable mea-
sures for the colonies, which had
been passed by the privy council of
the king of England. In 1863 and
1864 the annual Thanksgiving was
appointed by national proclamation
Since then the day has been regular.
ly kept; and marks a growing reg Al d
for Divine help in our national life.
1t is day of home joys and family
reunions. 1t differs from Christmas
in this: that our national, rather than
our private and individual blessings
are kept in mind.
The spirit Of the day is a beautiful
one; and if properly observed would
tend greatly to advance us as a nation
for i'll the language of the Psalmists:
"a good and joyful thing 1t is to be
thankful" There-are dark eides to
every picture, but the American peo-
.,ple surely have much to be thankful
for. Let us observe the day in its
true spirit.

Silver Repub licans.

AT the conference Of the Silver Re-

terday the sentiment appeared to be
IN favor OF holding the national con-
ventlon of 1900 simultaneously with
the Democratic national convention,
and the endorsement by the Silver
Republicans Of the nominee of that
convention, providing the silver
plank OF the convention Of 1896 ls
adopted.
Senator Henry M. Teller said he
believed the national Silver Republi-
can convention would take this ac-
ton. He favored the Endorsement of
the Chicago platform, but said senti.
ment as regards this would not be
unanimous, some OF the members be-
ing opposed to one or two of the
planks.
William j. Bryan was generally
favored. Some of the members of
the committee expressed themselves
as opposed to the government by in
junction and income tax planks of
the Democratic platform. 1t is prob
able that at the close Of the meeting

1T is singular fact" said an cleo.

body is capable of becoming more OF

suppose Tie average scientist would
scout the i;.c",' but what 1 say is borne
out by everyday experience. The EN-
ployes Of big electric light works,
for instance, are continually receiving
shocks that would disable an ordinary
man, but are apparently none the worse
for the experience. I remember some
time ago couple of young fellows
came in contact accidentally with live
wire and both received exactly the same
current. One of them was q helper
around dynamo and had met with
mishaps OF that sort before. He was
knocked off his feet and momentarily
stunned, but was all right in less than
two minutes. The other man, who was
a stranger, fell over as if struck by
lightning, and it was fully half an hour
before he showed the least signs of re-
turning consciousness. He was laid up
for several days and, oddly enough,
was much more powerful, physically,
of the pair. Ihave known several cases
of practically the same sort. The mo-
tormen on the street cars frequently
get the current as they call it, es-
pecially in rainy weather, when wet
wood becomes conductor. They tell
me they don't mind it much after the
first few times. 1t is certainly difficult
to understand how repeated shocks can
fortify the system against the mystic
rious fluid, but the fact is as I state.
I'll leave the explanation to somebody
else.
