Enthusiastically endorse Doan's Kidney

which had bothered me for a consider

Rural Free Delivery Notes

Because they objected to a negro car
rier and took down their mail boxes
residents along rural delivery route
No. 2, out Of Cerulean, KY, have been
deprived Of the service, says Louis
vile dispatch to the New York Trib-
une. AS result farmers for miles are
calling at Cerulean for mail, and W.
L. George, the negro carrier, is out Of
job. Protests were sent to Wash
ington when George was first appoint
ed last April. No heed was paid to
them. White patrons along the route
then took down their boxes. AS the
rules forbid delivery except where
boxes are up, the negro carrier soon
had sinecure The mail fell off so
that Washington has discontinued the
route because of slack of patronage"
Mrs. Hazelbaker, mail carrier on
route No 3 in Linn county, Kan, was
kindly remembered New Years day
by the patrons of that line, says the
Pleasanton (Kan.) Herald. She serves
fifteen farmers with mail, and each one
presented her with a bushel of corn
with which to feed her horses. The
gift was very acceptable and worthily
bestowed. Mrs. Hazelbaker who is
one Of the most energetic, hardwork-
ing and Industrious women in Linn
county and the only lady mail carrier
in eastern Kansas, appreciates the
Kindness of her patrons, and as in the
past, wet or dry, hot or cold, sunshine
or storm, she will continue to serve
them. She never misses a day and
comes in promptly on time. All honor
and credit to Mrs. Hazelbaker.
Postoffice Inspectors Schaffer and
Young, after making a tour of Niagara
county, called on Postmaster Hatch
Of Lockport, N. Y, the other day and
Informed him that the department
would no longer endure the soap boxes
nail kegs, cigar boxes, old teakettles,
ETC., being used by farmers as rural
delivery boxes, says the New York
Tribune. They declared that in two
different soap boxes used as recepta-
eles for mail hens had made their
nests and were laying eggs Postmas-
ter Hatch was directed to notify these
farmers that no mail would be deliT-
cred to them until regulation boxes
we're secured.

RoADMAKING DISCOVERY.
Combination Of Rocks Better Than the
Use Of One Kind.

Combination Of Rocks Better Than the
Use Of One Kind.
An important fact in connection with
good road making has been developed
by the office Of public roads, says the
washington Star. One Of the most i'm
portant matters in road building has
been the formation of good top sur
face that will hold together well. 1t
has been found that by the proper
combination Of common rocks 1t Is
possible to get much better wearing
surface than by the use of single sort
of rock, and material that is very un-
satisfactory when used alone may be
very valuable when used In combina-
ton with something else 1t has taken
good deal of what practical" farm
ers and some statesmen would call
fancy science" to develop the facts.
1t has been known for long time
that granite or diabase, while hard

rock, was difficult to bond under the
road roller and consequently poor
surfacing material. But it was found
that by mixing limestone with 1t the
bonding value was greatly increased.
The practical application of this was
to treat the surface of the granite
roads with top dressing of limestone
screenings. AS shown by laboratory
tests, the granite alone had bonding
value of six. The limestone alone had
a bonding value of twenty. Now, in
the scale of values anything as low as
ten is regarded as poor material.
Twenty Is fair, forty is good, and any
thing above fifty is excellent. 1t was
found that when the limestone and the
granite were combined they had a ce-
menting value of eighty-two. So the
value Of the fact brought out is appar-
ent.
The facts are brought out in a rather
technical report of Professor A. s.
Cushman and Provost Hubbard of the
road Office on '"The Decomposition Of
Feldspars." Tle report itself does not
make very Illuminating reading for the
layman, but the essential fact is regard
ed as of great practical Importance

Only a Mask.

Many are not being benefited by the
summer vacation as they should be-
Now, Notwithstanding much outdoor
life, they are little if any stronger
than they were. The tan on their
faces is darker and makes them look
healthier, but it is only a mask.
They are still nervous, easily tired,
upset by trihes, and they do not eat
nor sleep we'll. What they need is
what tones the nerves, perfects diges-
tion, creates appetite, and makes sleep
refreshing, and that is Hoods Sar-
saparilla. Pupils and teachers
generally will find the chief purpose
of the vacation best subserved by this
great medicine which, as we know,
builds up the whole system"
