Rapia Army Mobilization

The finest example of rapid organ
ization of an army was certainly the
mobilization Of the German army in
1870. On July II in that year the IA
nous telegram, the shortest and most
momentous ever dispatched, "Krieg.
Mobil," went forth from the headquar-
tiers at Berlin, and within a fortnight
an army of 100000 men, fully uni
formed, equipped and provided with
commissariat. was on its way to the
French frontier OF course it must be
remembered that all these men had
been previously warned and that all
had been through their period of mill
tary training.-London Answers.

The Quality of Charity.

There probably never was man or
woman who did not occasionally need
the charity of those with whom they
came In contact, and on hearing a
story relating to the Stiffness or tickle
ness of some one II is surprising that
they do not hope, for the honor of
their race, that 1t is not true, or at
least treat 1t with charitable silence,
as they hope to be treated. There new
er was a great man Who paid much at
tention to gossip; there never was a
woman distinguished above her sisters
for goodness who vas not charitable.
You might as well muse yourself by
remarking the ugUnSs of people as to
amuse yourself ~ remarking their
faults and transgessions. We are all
ugly enough, heaven knows, and we all
have too many faults to warrant us In
being surprised ut faults In others!-

Consumption

The only kind of consump-
ton to fear is neglected
consumption"
People are learning that con-
sumption is a durable disease.
1t is neglected consumption
that is so often incurable.
At the faintest suspicion of
consumption get a bottle of
SCOTS Emulsion and begin
regular doses.
The use of SCOTS Emulsion
at once, has, in thousands of
cases, turned the balance in
favor of health.
Neglected consumption does
not exist where SCOTS Emul-
sion is.
Prompt use of SCOTS Emul-
sion checks the disease while it
can be checked.

After persistent work on the part
of Congressman Glenn, J. r. Bren-

company, it Is announced that a
good quality of coal has been found
very close to this city III Montpelier
canyon. The quality is Ignite
and is said to be excellent for COM

1t has been known for a long
time that coal ''outcrops" existed
in the canyon, and at various times
considerable development work has
been done, but nothing of value
was struck, until the gentlemen
above referred to took the matter
up. They have had big force of
men employed up there during the
summer and theil efforts have at
last been crowned with success.
With the opening of this vein will
come more prospecting and more

Profanity in Post Offices.

An order forbidding the use of pro-

issued recently by J. M. Masten, Acting
First Assistant Postmaster General. 1t
says: Complaint has been made to the
Department that the use of profane
language is so prevalent in many fourth
class post offices that it is disagreeable
and annoying to patrons of those offices
and reflection upon the postal service.
Postmasters should endeavor TO pre-
vent the use of profane language in
their offices. Post Offices must not be
allowed to become resorts for loungers
or disorderly persons, nor the scenes Of
disputes or controversies. They must
be kept in d clean and orderly condition
so that they may be visited without en-
barassment.
Whenever necessary the postmaster
should call on the civil authorities to
preserve order, and if they refuse to dc
so, the office should be closed"
