err rural delivery has been established
this annual gain has risen to s or 10
per cent. The ratio of increase on
the rural routes is substantially equal
to that of the free-delivery cities.
This is as true of those which have
been operated for three years as of
those operated only for year, show
ing that it is not an exceptional and
transient expansion in the nature of
a squirt, but that it is the normal uni
form, and legitimate increase which
always follows improved facilities. In
the ten complete county services
which have been established this is
more marked than in the fragmentary
system, proving that the more perfect
the service the better the results. 1t
is clear that if a saving can be effect
ed in the curtailment of star routes
and fourth-class Offices to the extent
of one-siXth Of the cost of rural deliv-
cry, and if the annual gain in postal
revenues shall advance wherever it is
applied from 2 per cent to or 10per
cent, then the net outlay involved in
the complete development of the sys-
tenn will not be so great that it need
deter congress from the prosecution
of this enlightened policy.
/
Making the Service Permanent.
| With it's acceptance as a fixed and
enduring service the wisdom of plac-
ing it on a permanent basis and of
bringing it into full harmony with the
general principles of the postal estab-
| lishment enforces itself. In authoriz-
ing rural delivery as an experiment
congress adopted no directing man.
date and simply made the requisite ap-
preparation.
With this discretionary authority
the existing system has been created.
At the beginning of the fiscal year
1899 there We're less than 200 routes in
operation. There are now 5000. The
organization necessary for this large
| establishment has been made; the
agents to locate and the inspectors to
examine the operation of these routes
have been appointed; the carriers who
daily traverse the routes and collect
and deliver the mail have been nam
ed; and these more than 5000 selec-
tions have been made without friction,
and, it is believed, with little COM
plant. The merit of appointment has
substantially been applied, and no re-
movals have been made except for
cause.

.A strange ACCIDENT
FALL FROM A HORSE RESULTS IN
PARALYSIS.
L. j. Davis, Of Manisaee, Mfcii., Thrown
From His Saddle by UnsnanageabIe
Animal - When He Recovered
Consciousness His Left Side
WINS Found 10 be ParalYZed.
Was Found TO be Paralyzed.

While Mr.. l.. j. Davis, of Manistee,
Mich, was riding his horse near the
railroad, the animal was frightened at
a passing train and became unmanage-
able. The horse plunged and, al
though Mr.. Davis is good rider, the
movement was so quick and unexpect-
ed that he was thrown from his sad
die and struck the pavement with his
head and shoulders.
He was picked up unconscious and
it was at first thought his neck had
been broken but an examination re-
vealed that this was not the case.
When he came to his senses he was
found partially paralyzed.
In telling his story, Mr.. Davis said
to the reporter of the Manistee Times:
1T was three days and nights after
the accident before | came to know
anyone, and then found my left side
was paralyzed. l could not move even
a finger or toe on my left side and my
left eye was affected. A doctor treat
ed me for three months after / was
hurt but | got no better. After this
had gone on for couple of years saw
an account in paper of how man
was cured of creeping paralysis by DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People,
and thought perhaps they would help
me. And they did. l began to get
better Immediately and kept taking them
till | was cured. am doing my work
now without difficulty and recommend
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie to everyone whom l hear COM
! plain"
| Mr.. Davis is marine engineer on
the tug Stevens and, although the ac-
cident took place eleven years ago,
he has not had touch of the COM
plant since his marvellous cure by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
| pie. At the request of the reporter
he made affidavit to his above state
ment on the oath day of August, 1901,
before Justice of the Peace August
Greve.
/ 1t is a reasonable claim that If DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
will cure severe cases of this nature
they will readily accomplish as good
results in lesser Affections of the
nerves. That this is so is substanti-
ated by statements from thousands of
people who have been benefited by
them. They are positive specific for

nervous system or poor blood. They

sis, st. Vitus' dance, sciatica, neural

Des Moines branch of the Burlington
railroad, about one-fourth mile north
of 4Lovilia four box cars went into the
ditch and Brakeman Lon Ashba, of this
city, had broken leg. The cause of
the wreck was the breaking of a brake
beam and derailing car. This car
caused three others to go to the ditch
all of them being mercantile cars and
the contents being scattered over the
right-of-way. The wrecker came up
from Ottumwa and cleared the track
and made it possible for the trains to
pass very little late.
