FAvORS PARCELS SYSTEM
Attention Called to Some of
Its Advantages

Golconda, JAN 25.-Editor Silver
State, Winnemucca, New. Dear Sir:
"A few days ago a meeting was held
in San Francisco. the object of which
was to advocate the establishment of
a Parcels Post system in this country.
similar to that of several European
governments. The movement is head
ed by President Wheeler of the UNI
versity of California and other prom
inent men of the city.
This is a question which should deep
ly interest the people of the state OF
Nevada. No state in the union suffers
more from high express and mail rates.
In Great Britain packages weighing
eleven pounds are transported by mail
FOR about thirty cents. In this coun-
try not over four pounds can be ship
ped by mail and costs sixty-four cents
for any distance :. package weighing
eleven pounds shipped from England
to San Francisco Is received at New
York and transported by mail or ex-
press to San Francisco for twenty
five cents In order to ship eleven
United States by mail 1t would have
to be made up into three packages and
would cost $1.75. If shipped from
New York to any point IN Nevada In
one package it would cost $3.50; If
shipped from San Francisco 1t would
cost over $780,
l hope the Silver State and other
prominent papers of the state viii
keep in touch with the movement and
keep the people thoroughly informed
as the movement advances. All pack
ages weighing less than twenty pounds
should be transported by mail at rea-
sonable rates.
Petitions should be sent to our SEN
ators and congressman urging them
to work for the passage of law CIV
ing us a liberal system of Parcels

Gave Back Money to Insurance Company.

The repairs of the South Methodist
Episcopal church. which was badly dam
aged several weeks ago by wind, have
Just been finished, and now the property
is really better than it was before the
storm. The building was insured against
tornadoes, and when the adjuster made
settlement it was agreed that the dam
age sustained was $1,000, which sum was
promptly paid over to the church officials
by the company. The work of repairing
was commenced at once thereafter, and
after everything had been placed in
statu quo it was found that there was
just $500 of the insurance money re-
naming In the treasury or the church.
The question then arose as to what
should be done with the surplus fund.
After much federation it was finally
agreed that the money did not belong to
the church, but to the insurance COM
pany. Whereupon this sum was paid
back to the ompany.-Hobart (Okla.)

The latter WAS promoted to be a ser
geant Upon his promotion he conceived
a very exalted impression of his rank
and became quite offensive in matter to
his former associates. His attitude
caused great resentment in camp. One
day the bibulous soldier approached him
and said: What is the punishment if
the private calls the sergeant a darned

TWO STEPS


A sick coffee drnker must take two
steps to be rid of his troubles and get
strong and well again.
The first is to cut off coffee absO-
lutely.
That removes the destroying ele-
food (and that is Postum Food Coffee
that has in it the elements nature re
quires TO change the blood corpuscles
from pale pink or white to rich red,
and good red blood builds good strong
and healthy cells in place Of the broken
down cells destroyed by coffee. With
well boiled Postum Food Coffee to shift
to, both these steps are easy and pleas
ant. The experience of a Georgian
proves how important both are.
From 1872 to the year 1900 my wife
and had both been afflicted with sick
or nervous headache and at times we
suffered untold agony. We were coffee
drinkers and did not know how to get
away from it, for the habit IS hard to
quit.
But in 1900 | read OF a case similar
to ours where Postum Coffee was used
in place of the Old coffee and com
plete cure resulted so concluded to
get some and try it.
THE result was, after three days
use Of Postum in place Of the coffee !
never had symptom OF the old trouble
and in five months had gained from
AS pounds to 1863 pounds.
my friends asked me almost daily
what wrought the change. Ny answer
always is, leaving off coffee and drink
ing Postum in its place.

been benefited by Postum.
