A committee of the Citizens
League waited upon the Postmas'
ter last Monday, in the interest oi
a better and more prompt mail de
livery. The Postmaster explained
as one reason of delay IN asserting
the Covington mail that she
was required by the rules of the
Department TO first distribute the
mails for BogaIusa, Sun, Angie,
Tallsheek, etc., as the railroad had
refused to carry the mails at the
price offered. The committee
will confer with the Postoffice De
partment in regard to the matter,
and will endeavor to have suitable
arrangements made tor a more
prompt and efficient delivery of the
local mail.

FIRE AT N ISLE.

early today, and seven blocks in the
amusement zone were destroyed.

nearly a score of small hotels we're

threatened destruction to Luna Park
and Dreamland, great homes of sum

smaller places which fringe the wa

A lucky shift of the wind to sea-
ward aided the firemen and probably
saved the whole picturesque area,
but not until $1,000, 900 damage had
been done. Three persons were in

DISPUTE ABOUT THIS WHAT

treatment Of catarrhal diseases.
The fact d, chronic catarrh ID a dis

thousand people know they have
chronic catarrh. They have visited
doctors over and over again, and been
told that their case is one Of chronic
catarrh. It may be ofthe nose, throat,
lungs, stomach or some other internal
organ. There is no doubt as to the ma
ture Of the disease. The only trouble
is tho remedy. This doctor has tried to
cure them. That doctor has tried to
prescribe for them.
BUT THEY ALL FAILED TO
BEING ANY RELIEF.
Dr.. Hartman's idea is that a catarrh
remedy can be made on a large scale,
as he Is making it; that it can be made
honcstly, Of the purest drugs and Of
the strictest uniformity. His idea is
that this remedycan be supplied direct
lyto thepeople, and no more be charged
for it than is necessary for the
handling oft.

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and ~fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using

DEATH IN A NEW cUIsE.
Scheme That Landed a Hungarian
Judge in Town Jail.

In a little village on the Hungarian
frontier, not far from P~resburg, a
peasant woman recently received 400
kronen (sS5) from her husband in
America.
She promptly deposited 1t in the
local branch of the postoffice savings
bank, and then the next day went to
withdraw the whole amount.
The bank official was somewhat sur
prised, and asked for an explanation,
when she said that Death had APP
peared to her during the night and
threatened to take her away with him
unless she had the 400 crowns ready
for him the next night.
The gendarmes were communicated
with, and when Death" made his
promised appearance he was found to
be very much alive, in the person of
the local judge.
The woman's money is still in the
bank, and the judge is in jail.-Pall
