Washington, D. c., Nov. %, 1906.
Order No. 1888.
Box rents have been fixed heretofore
upon no established basis, with the re-
suit that at certain large postofflces
rates are lower than at many small Of
fees; that the charge for small boxes
is in many cases higher than that
which should be made for large boxes;
that rents are sometimes collected at
the same rate for boxes of all sizes,
and that at postofices of like class, in
the same vicinity, equipped with SINH
lar boxes, rents are collected at wide
ly different rates. In order to remedy
these conditions and to provide def
mite and satisfactory rule for the col
lection Of box rents the following
schedule, based upon the kind and ca
pacity of boxes and the gross receipts
at postofiices, has been adopted and
will be strictly adhered to by the de-
partment in the establishment of all
box rent rates, from and after Jan. 1,
1907:
Rate per quarter, where gross re-
ceipts of postoffice are $4,000 and less
than 100000:
Lock boxes, small .............. rs
Lock boxes, medium ............ loo
Lock boxes large .............. 1.50
This rule applies to the Ottumwa
postomce.

can representative of the lnterna-
tional Bureau of tuberculosis, the
headquarters of which are In Berlin,
and is similar to the national socie-
DIES which have been formed in
Great Britain, Germany and France.
In order to reach all classes of peo-
pie the association has arranged, in
addition to the printed information,
a series of exhibitions, which show In
simple way by charts, photographs,
models and apparatus of all sorts, the
great prevalence of tuberculosis, the
causes and conditions that bring II
about and the approved methods OF
prevention and treatment. These ex-
hibitions have been held in many of
our large cities. II is hoped in this
way to impress on all the people
that the 10000 deaths, each year,
from tuberculosis, in the United
States, are needless and the misery
and loss caused by It can be avoided.

The Value OF Exercise.

The value OF exercise for keeping
the body in a good healthy condition
is more fully appreciated nowadays
than ever before and especially is II
recommended to us in the summer
season.
Exercise stimulates the blood flow
and the healthy Precipitation that fol-
lows aids the skin in frhOwing on
the po!sons and b. bringing into play
the different muscles of the body, II
develops them and at the same time
adds to the nerve force. one OF the
most necessary conditions for a good
healthy condition.
Note the youngsters that play and
romp at all sorts of games in the
summer. See the clear skin, the bright
eye. the ease with which Precipitation
sets in. For them, there are few
days of sickness. II would be the same
with the grown people, however. II
they would only exercise. But--they
won't.
The osteopathic treatment is as
natural as exercise. II has the same
effect of the system. II stimulates
and rights the blood flow and It gives
tone TO the nerves. II exercises the
bowels and liver in far superior
way to any romping or play. and slim
ulates all the functions with which
nature has provided the body TO right
any disease.
Especially, when preceded by the
dry. hot air treatment. is the osteo-
patty successful for herein you get
all that the most vigorous exercise
giyes-a good sweat" free flow OF
blood and development OF every nerve
and muscle. And, following, comes
at once the greatest OF tonic effects.
which are but natural.
! am giving this treatment every
day with very marked success and
shall be pleased to recommend you to
number of very prominent people
In Padueah who will verify all claim
for 1t.

ABOUT GERRYMANDERs.

The threatened contest over the
manner in which the state of Ken
lucky has been redistricted, was pre-
cipitated in the court at Morgantown
by the Republican organization. and
a test case speedily will be carried
through the state courts and possibly
through the federal tribunals. Re
publican members of the general as
sembly decided on this course when
the redistricting measure was enact
ed and the opportunity came in the
nominal Injunction to restrain the
Republican committeeman from call
ing a legislative primary. The con-
test is made because by clergyman
der, which has cut the state in all
sorts of fantastic and ridiculous
shapes. and Jumped population in
haphazard fashion, the Democratic
organization is insured an over
whelming majority in the general as
sembly as long as the district boun-
daries are allowed to stand; but the
broad principal is laid down that the
Gerrymander has subverted the pop
ular will of voters Of Kentucky and
made representation unequal. The re-
distrlcting bill is attacked under the
following section Of the state consti-
tuition:
1.-THE first general assembly after
the adoption of this constitution
shall divide the state into 3S senate
rial districts, and one hundred repre-
sentative districts, as nearly equal in
population as may be without divid-
ing any county except where coun-
ty may include more than one dis
trict, which districts shall constitute
the senatorial and representative dis
tricts for ten years. Not more than
two counties shall be Joined together
to form representative district:
Provided, in doing so the principle
requiring every district to be as
nearly equal in population as may
be shall not be violated II, in
making said districts, inequality of
population shall be unavoidable, any
advantage resulting therefrom shall
be given to districts having the larg-
est territory. No part of a county
shall be added to another.county to
make a district. and the counties
forming a district shall be contigu-
GUS"
The first suit is filed in the dis
trict, composed of Ohio. Butler and
Edmonson counties. where the vot-
ers have received comparatively the
"rawest" deal at the hands OF the
general assembly. These three coun-
ties have a combined population OF
81. 263 and have one representative.
spencer county, with a population OF
-,407, also has one representative
according to the last CEN
us. the average population to a
is 21.475. So Spencer
osnty, with one-third the required
lumber OF Inhabitants, and Ohio,
utler and Edmonson counties. with
combined population a fraction
Doye twice the number necessary,
ave one representative
This is only an example OF the
