SALE or The DEAD MAIL.

Yesterday in Washington the pest
once department began Its regular
sale OF merchandise that had accum-
ulated as dead" mail matter. Among
these articles we're the contents OF
$4,000 packages originally directed to
foreign countries and held as unmail-
able;; $4,000 pieces OF unclaimed
domestic mail: $1,000 articles found
losse or without wrappers in the mail
This collection included great yaii-
ETY. Of articles, mink skins. drovers
whips. French jewelry, chinaware.
watches, diamond pins, pearl brooch
es and books OF all descriptins and
values. None OF these articles could
be returned to the sender because Of
the failure to attach their card ad-
dresses.
The Dostoffice service has been un-
able to deliver these $4,000 pieces
OF mail matter because the senders
failed to inform themselves as to the
requirements of the international
parcels post service. or to securely
wrap Enclosures before submitting
them for transmission. The records
OF the division show that many pieces
OF valuable jewelry now offered for
sale were so carelessly wrapped as
tc escape from the wrappers In tran
sit. It YVES found that several thous-
ands OF parcels sent as gifts could not
be forwarded because necessary
customs declarations, required by
parcels post conventions with other
countries. were not properly attach
ed by the sender.
These facts are particularly import
ant to the people Of the United States
at this season of the year, when hun
dreds of thousands of Christmas
packages are being entrusted to the
malls for transmission. If the send
er will carefully wrap his packages
and follow closely the instructions of
the postofiice department for address
ing and stamping, there will be little
likelihood OF their failure to be deliv-
cred. AS precautior, all packages
should bear the name and address of
the sender, which In case of failure to
deliver, will insure its return. With
just little care on the part of per
sons melting Christmas packages, II
will be possible to greatly reduce the
number Of packages that are regular.

Thinks the Government is
 Showing Bad Faith
STRUGGLE IS NOT ENDED
He Bewails the Lack of Moral Con sciousness and Sense of Responsi- bllty Among the Russian
 People as a Whole.

St. Petersburg, March $.-Dmitri shl- poff of Moscow who is generally reeog- nized as one of the most rational of the liberal leaders, takes anything but an optimistic view of the future of the em- pire. NJ. shlpoff took q midde position after the manifesto of October 30, seced- ing at that time fro mthe radical con stitutional wing of the zemstvoists on the ground that the people must be gradually prepared for self-government.
 He regarded the promises of the mani festo as sufficient for the present. Now however, M. shipon believes that the gov ernment is showing bad faith. In the course of an interview today heseverely condemned the manifesto of March 6, say ing that 1t did not make of the council of the empire a second chamber of the national parliament, but interposed be- tween the monarch and the people the same old bureaucratic barrier, robbing the peoples branch of the parliament of the rights which it Is supposed to exercise and not realizing the promise of re- sronsible minlstery. leaving the parlia- ment at the mercy of the government through the soyereigns power of proruga- tion.

REPAIRING BRAIN.
A Certain Way by Food.


Every minister, lawyer, journalist,
physician, author or business man is
forced under pressure of modern con-
ditions to the active and sometimes
overactive use of the brain.
Analysis Of the excreta thrown out
by the pores shows that brain work
breaks down the phosphate OF potash.
separating it from its heavier compan-
ion, albumen, and plain common sense
teaches that this elemental principle
must be introduced into the body anew
each day, If we would replace the loss
and rebuild the brain tissue.
We know that the phosphate of
potash, as presented in certain field
grains, has an affinity for albumen and
that is the only way gray matter in the
brain can be built. 1t will not answer
to take the crude phosphate of potash
of the drug shop for nature rejects it.
The elementary mineral must be pre-
sented through food directly from ma
ture's laboratory.
These facts have been made use of

Mr.. d. c. French, the sculptor, tells
with much relish, the story of his ex-
periences when he was commissioned
to make the bust of Ralph Waldo En-
erson, which is now in Memorial hall
of Harvard university At one Of the
sittings, says Mr.. French, Mr.. Emerson
rose suddenly and walked over to
where the artist was working. He
looked long and earnestly at the bust,
and then, with an inimitably droll ex-
preston, he said THE trouble is the
more it resembles me the worse it
looks" After the sculptor had finish
ed the bust he asked Mr.. Emerson to
inspect 1t. The philosophers opinion
was characteristically terse.
Well" he said at last that is the
face l shave" Mr.. Emerson, Mr..
French relates. made one of his quaint
observations about another bust, the
work OF another artist 1t was a char
acterless kind of thing. and showed not
the slightest hint of the Emerson char
acter. After looking it over, Emer-
son said:
1T looks as harmless as a parsnip.
doesn't it,"
