1t is thought that the next Congress
will appropriate fully S7,09o,ooo for the
extension of the rural free delivery
service. So great has been the pressure
upon the postoffice department. from
every State in the Union for the estab-
lishment of new routes that the fund
available for this purpose, 50, 200, has
been nearly exhausted, and it may be
necessary in the near future to sus
pend operations until new appropria-
ton becomes available.

BAD BLOOD,
BAD COMPLEXION.

The skin IS the seat of an almost end.
less variety of diseases. They are known
by various names, but are all due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have a smooth, soft skin, free from
all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations Of
arsenic and potash and the large number
of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover mp
for short time, but cannot remove per
manently the ugly blotches aud the red,
dishguring pimples.
Eternal Vigilance r. the ps'l0O
Of a beautiful complexion
when such remedies are relied on.
Mr.. H. T. Shobe, 77@ Lucas Avenue. Ct. Louis

with .disfguring eruption on her face. which
celebrated health springs, but received no bens-
fit. Many medicines were prescribed, but with
out result until we decided to try S. S. s., and by
began to disappear. A dozen bottles cured her
completely and left her skin perfectly smooth.

the embarrassing disease has ever returned"

necessity for such examination
existed. ".
Second That the method Of ex-
animation was Unnecessary, unusual
aud in violation ofcommon decency;
that it was an insult to womankiud

Fifth-That the said Dr. l.. E.

Saturdays Journal contained call
for the first meeting of those interested
in the project for providing Augusta
with suitable assembly hall. We un
derstand that the plan is supported by
more than three-quarters of the active
society men of the city. and that there
can be little doubt of a successful is
sue. Even the comparatively few who
have declined to aid in the enterprise
are. nevertheless. almost all in favor
of it, and have only refused their CO.
operation from personal reasons quite
unconnected with a disbelief in the
necessity or feasibility of the scheme
proposed. Such being the general feel
ing, it is not likely that the public
spirited gentlemen who meet at the Abb
MAXI Club this evening will fail to at
tain their object.

The first train to arrive in this city
from Bangor was No. 332, which left
that place at about O'Clock yesterday
morning. 1t was in charge of Conduc-
tor Peterson and when it finally pulled
in here was composed of engine No.

baggage car and six Pullman and pas
senger coaches. The train should have
reached the Capital city at 1O.2S had it
made its schedule time. but it was nee
essary to move slowly, as the first trip
over Il railroad after being out of COM
mission is not the safest of jobs. AS
