1t is known that Fourth Assistant
Postmaster General Bristow has been
engaged for some time in the formid-
able task OF recognizing the rural
free delivery in order to be ready for
the new arrangements provided by
law which so into operation on the
first of July. The number of diyi-
sions is to be reduced from eight TO
six; rural agents are to be employed;
and the new schedule of salaries will
take effect. The Department will
not be able to do as much for the
clerks as it intended, since for the
coming fiscal year the amount appro-
priated for the increase of salaries is
but one half million of dollars while
for the current year the amount was
one million and two hundred thous-
and dollars. OF clerks employed in
the postal service who receives more
than 81 400 year, of whom there are
more than 600, only IS can be pro-
NOTED. OF those who receive less
than $1,400 only about 80 per cent
of those who have been recommended
for promotion will be made happy.
And yet, the Democrats, in their
state platforms, love to harp upon
the exrayagance of the Republicans in
voting away the public money.

WATTERSON ON HEARST,

Colonel Watterson is very apt to be
logical even though he be wrong in
his conclusions. He has reached the
conclusion that Mr.. Hearst, the Dem
ocratic candidate for the st. Louis
nomination, who thus far is exceeded
in the number of votes by Judge
Parker only, is insane. Colonel Wat
terson accepts the report that Mr..
Hearst has already spent 100000
in his canvass, a large draft even on
the Hearst estate, and that as he has
not a particle of chance for the NOM
ination he must be crazy Colonel
Watterson's error appears to be in
assuming that Mr.. Hearst has not
the ghost of chance and that there
can be no other plausible reason for
his candidacy.
1t is not safe to say in advance
what a Demo cratic National Conven-
ton will do, as witness the gathering
in Chicago in 1896, and the more ex-
traordinary doings of the Kansas
City convention in 1900. Surely the
nomination of Mr.. Hearst at st. Louis
would not be stranger than the DELHI
crate suicide of the party at Kansas
City. The Republicans, though u.s.
ually secure through their candidates
and principles in mapping out cam
paign, allow an ample margin for
Democratic blunders and they are
generally safe in doing so.
Mr.. Hearst may also have two
strings to his bow. His emphatic
declaration that he will support the
nominees of the st. Louis convention
gives probability to this hypothesis.
Millions of dollars are sometimes
spent in advertising and the immense
expenditure has generally been a
sage investment. Mr.. Hearst has al
ready displayed shrewduess in this
particular line of enterprise and il
may have occurred to him that if he
should be unable to land a presiden-

Merchandise Belonging to Julius
Scherr Also Stolen.
The postoffice at Eglon, over which
our enthusiastic Republican friend,
Julius Scherr presides, and which is
located in his store, was robbed last
Saturday night of cash and postage
stamps amounting to about $25, all
letters remaining uncalled for in the
office and also letters mailed for de-
spatch. Besides the Government
losses Mr.. Scherr is the loser by about
5000 as that amount in goods was car
ried off by the thieves.
AS soon as the theft was discovered
the robbers were followed and several
miles east OF Eglon portions of burned
letters were found in the woods indi-
eating the spot where the men had
gone through the mail stolen from the
Office.

he had not been mixing up IN

ed and fell down like snow, leaving the
air perfectly clear.
Mr.. Lodge did not hesitate to fol
low up his discovery. There exists,
he says, no reason why the vapcr par
ticles of cloud cannot be forced by
electrification to contact and to fall
down in the form Of rain, a possibility
which. for a country like India, would
be of incalcuIable value. where un-
fortunately the dark clouds of the
monsoon quite frequently pass away
without becoming rain and so deliver
the country over TO famine. For a me-
tropolis like London the advantage
would be twofold-on the one hand, to
get rid of the coal smoke and on the
other TO dispel the fog.
THE realization Of these expecta-
tons would hardly be more improbable
than the practical use of wireless
telegraphy. and it would perhaps not
even require as large machines fc~ the
purpose. as fogs usually occur in calm
weather and rarely reach high alti-
tudes
THE difficulty lies only In the cost
of experiments, and Mr.. Lodge, there
fore, finds his consolation in the ex-
pectation that later on England will
be rich enough to contribute sufficient
funds for such purposes"

DON'T JUMP OUT OF BED.

Do not jump up as soon as your
eyes are open. Remember that while
you sleep the vital organs are at rest.
The vitality is lowered and the circu-
lation not so strong. A sudden spring
out of the bed is a shock to these or
gans, especially to the heart, as it
starts to pump the blood suddenly.
Take your time in getting up. Yawn
and stretch. Wake up slowly. Give
the vital organs a chance to resume
gradually.
Notice how baby wakes up. 1t
stretches its arms and legs, rubs its
eyes and yawns and wakes up slowly.
Watch kitten wake up. First ii
stretches out the leg then another,
rubs its face, rolls over and stretches
the whole body. The birds do mot
wake up and fly as soon as their eyes
are open; they shake out their wings
and stretch their legs, waking up
slowly. This is the natural way to
wake up. Do not jump up suddenly;
do not be in such hurry, but stretch
and yawn and stretch again Stretch
the arms and the legs; stretch the
whole body. A good yawn and stretch
will get you thoroughly awake, and
then you will enjoy the bath all the
more.

IN THE CAUSE OF TEMPERANCE

The anti-alcoholic congress of
France, called to consider methods of
checking the evil of alcoholism, adopt
ed the following resolution: That the
number of saloons shall be restricted
by law; debts for liquor sold by the
glass shall not be legal; that the pro-
prietor of a saloon shall be held re-
sponsible for crimes committed by a
person or persons who have become
intoxicated in his saloon; that the
court shall declare the forfeiture of
paternal authority in all cases where
habitual drunkenness shall have been
proved: that projects shall exercise
more frequently the right conferred
upon them by the law to close
saloons. France ranks first among
alcoholic nations, with an annual per
capita consumption of as gallons
which is three and half times that
of the United States, and has a
saloon for every eighty-three inhabi-
tants.

stead of in the sink Do anything to
avoid bending the back at an angle. A
high stool should be in every kitchen,
for it is possible to do much more
work while sitting down than one
would believe who had not tried it,
Another most convenient article
for the kitchen is a bench or box on
which the mop-pail may be placed
when one is hopping the floor or wash
ing paint. This bench saves one from
STOPPING to the floor each time the mop
or cloth must be wrung out, and it is
this STOPPING that makes The work of
hopping so very tiresome This same
bench can be used for elevating the
clothes basket when one is hanging
out clothes, saving one the trouble OF
STOPPING for each piece of clean linen.
A convenience when enc is cooking
is wooden cleat nailed to the wall
just above the cooking table. A strip
of elastic is nailed to the wall a few
inches above the cleat, and the cook
book, open at the right place, rests On
the cleat, and is slipped back of the
elastic which holds it in place Thus
one may glance repeatedly at the cook
book without touching it with the fin
gers or having it on the table where it
is apt to become soiled.
