A LOOKOUT FOR
THE P.,O. SLEUTHS
AN ."INSPECTION GALLERY" PRO
VIDED IN AIAIIING-ROOM.
1t Will Enable Government inspectors
to Watch POstoffice Clerks at Any
Time without tho Latter knowing
that They Are Under Surveillance.

The revised Minneapolis federal
building has something new to Min
neapolis-an inspection gallery for the
postoffice sleuths Altho alleged pee
ulations In the local office have been
frequent for years, the inspectors have
been handicapped by the lack of a
concealed lookout" in the mailing
room. The only peep holes were from
the postmaster's private room, or thru
a painted window in the lavatory off
the room of the assistant postmaster.
After standing on the top Of a chair
placed on top of q table for an hour.
the inspector would give 1t UP as a
1resome Job.
The new gallery has been hung from
the ceiling Of the working-room down
stairs and of the second-class mail
1ng-room upstairs. The gallery acts
as a preventive even If never used. A
clerk who tnclines to dishonesty, has
a feeling that perhaps an inspector is
looking thru the peep hole, and that
keeps him from abstracting letters,
The same feeling keeps clerks from
"nigging" In their work.
1t is possible that the galleries may
never be used, but, nevertheless, no
one can tell when one Of these 'gum
shoe" men may be in the shaft even
SO late as II o. m.

digestive organs, shatter the nerves,
and in many instances the patient CON-
tracts drug habit which leads even

DON'T MISS THIS

There is bright hope for people who
are worn out and on the road to sick
ness.
What innumerable blessings we miss
thru lack Of sensibility, of openness to
light, Of fair-mindedness, Of good
ours, it is not because it is far away
and unattainable, but because we our
selves are Indifferent, careless, and
shortsighted. The woes of ill-health
are generally due to this self-same
carelessness and Indifference. Deep
seated maladies always start from
some slight source. They are like the
rivulets that grow into great onrush-
ing torrents, sweeping everything be-
fore them.
If sickness and disease is creeping
upon you, is it not wise to nip it in the,
your precious health which is worth
more to you than all the diamonds of
Kimberley. Stop up the leak In your
body dyke. If you are tired. listless,
and without energy there is something
wrong with your physical machine. If
trouble or loss Of appetite, there is
something vitality wrong that may
make your declining days a disap-
pointment and q dread.
There Is grave danger in delay.
Don't keep putting of your re-
pair work. Get back your health and
do it quickly. Walther's Peptonized
Port will set you right If you are run
down" or have any sort of stomach
trouble. It Is not a nauseous medi-
old port and pure pepsin and it will

DANGEROUS PRACTICE.
Batting Balls around the Field is
SenseIess Practice.

The habit OF batting two or three
halls around the field at the same time
is as senseless as it IS dangerous, but
professionals as well as amateurs per
sist in doing it. There is nardlv
game where some fellow doesn't nave
a narrow escape during the Dracnce'
and ever and anon there is a howl OF
surprise and pain as the bail Wnacks
a victim The only wonder IS that
some one las not been killed long ago
Eddie Mayer, one of the cieVerest
young third basemen in the business,
was put out of it by being hit with
a batted ball.
About the oldest accident yet re-
corded was one which disabled Bob
Barr. the pitcher when he twirled ms
first game for New York Barr had
been doing pretty good work and was
getting along finely. He came in at
the close Of an inning and sat down
on the bench. a ball was fouled back
over the grand stand and strong
boy on the outside, wishing to return
it in hurry, SHE'D it over the whole
works The ball descended inside
the Enclosure and lit squarely on
Bars head. putting Bob down ana
out for half an hour.
A ball seems really malicious IN
this way, and it is wonderful how the
leather with thousands of square Ieet
to fall in will seek out some special
victim and fall upon his skull inc
thing seems actuated by real and deV-
elish impulse, and of its own Voltloh
will do tricks that the best batter
or thrower couldn't make it accom-
plish in 100 trials.
