Have you met THELMA? If not,
please call at my store and permit
me to introduce you. THELMA is
my new perfume, an odor particu-
larly acceptable to gentlewomen,
because they know what really fine
perfume is. 1t always gives me
pleasure to have people ask to see
THELMA for know it is something
unusually good. c. r. Taggart.
A county rural mail route service
is in process of inauguration in ST.
Croix county. This scheme con-
templates delivery of mail to every
individual in the county to whom
mail is addressed. When this sys-
tenn involves the whole country
Uncle Sam will meet every one of
his 8O,OOO,000 citizens daily.
BY a concession of the Post-Mas-
ter General rural mail carriers will
not deliver mail on the following
holidays--New Years Day, Wash
ington's Birthday, Decoration Day,
Fourth of July, Labor Day and
Thanksgiving. Christmas is not
exempted, as there are so many par
cells that days delay would block
the mails.

that is about the biggest thing in

hens. Gathering eggs daily on this
farm must be a little matter like
picking up sixty to eighty bushels
of eggs day.
How difficult it is to enforce a
sumptuary lava law regulating
what one shall eat, drink, wear, or
otherwise use for personal gratifca-
tion-is seen in the many ways by
which the cigarette law is evaded.
One great difficulty is in securing
the peculiar cigarette paper in the
state, but it is easy to send out of
the state and have it mailed to the
smoker.
