The Hollenbeck Bros, of Council
Bluffs, who have been moving the Stuart
grain Office building onto the corner of
Broadway and Washington streets have
almost completed their work. 1t has
been a difficult job. These men who
are experienced and skilDful, say it has
been the most difficult job of house
moving ever done in Iowa. The reason
of the difficulty was because of the
great weight of the building and it's
height with it's comparatively small
foundation. The foundation is 25x46
and its height is two full stories. The
weight is over 400 tons. The distance
the building was moved is 425 feet and
the elevation where it is now placed is
fifty feet higher than it's old location.
The grade on which it was moved was
eleven feet to the hundred To move
the building three sixteen inch drum
capstains were used and 1906 feet of
rope. 1t required about GOO horse power
to move the building. The building is
nearly on the foundation now and as
soon as the weather is better it will be
finished. The building appears to be in
perfect condition and will be an orna-
ment to the corner.

Rural Free Delivery.

Geo G. Everts and A. +. Altman, of
Lincoln township, have mapped out a
proposed route for rural free delivery
mail route, have obtained the required
number of signers and have forwarded
their petition to the department The
route runs north from Audubon, west
past John Lovelace's, then Zigzags
through the central and west part of
Lincoln and central and east parts of
Douglas townships, returning to Audi
bon from the west 1t passes through
good territory much OF which is remote
from postoffice accommodations. Many
of the people on the route are from five
to ten miles from the postot1ice from
which they get their mail.
The post Office department is establish,
ing a few of these rural freq delivery
routes as an experiment We have &c
system which in time will extend tc
practically all the farming community
unless it be to that part remotely scat.
tered and isolated.
The way to proceed to obtain rural
free delivery is to present petition to
the FIRST Assistant Postmaster General
signed by the heads of families who de-
sire the service. 1t should describe the
nature of the country, roads, map the
route, etc, and should be endorsed by
the member of congress. No route can
be established that is less than from
twenty to twenty five miles in length or
which serves less than 100 families.
Boxes to receive the mail must be put
up at the expense of the patrons. After
the petition is received by the depart
ment if everything is favorable for the
establishment, a special agent is sent
out by the department to view the route.
to select carriers, to advise with the
postmaster from whose Office the mail
will go, etc. Rural carriers will take
with them upon their rounds supply
of stamps, postal cards ETC.; will be
W SANO lOSCiPto lOl uiOhCy
orders, and, if patrons of the delivery so
desire it, to inclose the orders, when
granted, in addressed envelopes confded
to their charge.
There is no doubt but these daily trips
will be great convenience to the pat
rons SO served. Congressman McPher-
son says there is but one such route now
in the Ninth district, that being one re-
Gently established IN Mills county. He
says one can likely be secured for Au-
dubOn county soon but that it is not
likely that more than one route can be
got at this time. We understand that a
few other neighborhoods in the county
have been talking of routes. 1t would
seem with other things being equal that
the petitioners for the route in Lincoln
and Douglas townships being first in the
field that they should be first served.

Do you take cold with
every change in the
weather. Does your throat
feel raw? And do sharp
pains dart through your
chest?
Don't you know these are
danger signals which point
to pneumonia, bronchitis, or
consumption itself?
II you are ailing and have
lost flesh lately, they are
certainly danger signals. The
question for you to decide is,
"Have ! the vitality to throw
off these diseases?"
