NEW ORDERS FOR CARRIERS.
Rural Delivery Men Can Do Little
But Breathe.

Under an order which has just been
received at the postofice, the chances
OF the rural mail carriers to make
money on the side will be cut of after
July /. The order was issued be-
cause in some parts Of the country
the carriers have been devoting more
time to other business than the de-
partment believes is' for the good Of
The service. The new order applies
to carriers all over the United States.
The carriers are forbidden to act as
agents for any merchant or any BUSH
ness concern OF any kind whatever
while ON their routes. They are
not allowed to receive money for
services or commissions from any
manufacturer or business concern.
They cannot act as agents for news
papers. They cannot sell anything
while on their routes, excepting
stamps and like government supplies.
They cannot receive packages which
are mailable from any one for de-
livery unless the packages are post
paid. They are not allowed to carry
whisky or liquor of any kind under
any circumstances. In short q carrier
cannot turn penny except in doing
shopping or carry unavailable pack
ages for people who live along the
route. People living on any rural
route may send to town TOR certain
thing and the carrier may get 1t Tor
them He can charge for that, but
he cannot accept money from the per.
son Of whom he makes The purchase.
The small wages paid carriers
makes it seem unfair to cut of this
slight addition to their income with
ont adding to their salary.
