RIVERSIDE HOSPITAL.

There should be no deterioration
in the service at Riverside hospital.
During the last two years the insti-
tuition has made a reputation over
western Kentucky and the private
wards are filled all the time. From
these wards come all the revenue.
The charity ward is an expense. AS
DR.. Boyd has pointed out, if the hos
pital is not kept up to the standard,
the number of private or pay patients
will drop off and the revenue from
the hospital will be diminished. The
way to increase the revenue is to
make the hospital larger, so more
pay patients may be admitted. Ply
sicians state that there are great
many more applicants for admission
than there are rooms to accommodate
them.
The hospital was not built, primar-
lily. to become a source of revenue,
but it may be made so in time. How
ever. the city officials must not be-
come hasty in their efforts to make
the hospital self-supporting If all
the revenue from the hospital and a
little in excess is used up in mainten-
ance, the burden on the city will not
be greater than for the old hospital,
which cost something like $4,000 a
year without returning any revenue
to the city.
An elevator is needed in the build
ing and fire escapes. The city should
set the example to citizens in this re-
spect. We compel individuals to
put UP fire escapes, and then the city
exposes fnvalids to the same dangers
without means of escape.
Paducah may well be proud of
Riverside hospital. Let us maintain
It as pride. We believe the way to
run it successfully is for the physic-
ians of the city to manage it. as now,
instead of politicians. DR.. Frank
Boyd's services were gratis. There
is no need of employing more officials

Have You Spring Fever?

Warm, sultry days, like those we
have had the past few days, bring
out the tired, rundown, spring fever
conditions in the most healthy We
feel drowsy most of the time, indiffer-
ent to everything, sometimes have
dull headaches. and are tout of
sorts generally.
This is a condition incident to the
first warm weather. but. it is merely
natures warning to get in fit con-
dition for the warm season ahead.
The condition is due to a sluggish
liver. deranged digestive functions,
or probably deranged kidneys. It is
easily and quickly cured, if taken in
hand in time.
The osteopathic treatment Is the
sane. rational, most effective cure
for such ailments. Several treat
ments in the dry hot air machine, fol-
lowed by the osteopathic treatment
eradicates the condition. 1t stimu-
lates every function,-the liver, and
stomach and bowels. the kidneys and
blood, the heart action, and does II
without resort to drugs of any sort,
just osteopathy.
l should like for you to investi-
gate osteopathy. It is a new science
in healing, but. there is nothing oc-
cult about it,-merely scientific
manipulation to restore deranged
function to normal activity, and to
give tone to all the organs of the
body.

The Hague, June 15.-With repre-
sentative of 46 countries here for
the opening of the second peace con
ference, there is remarkable con-
trast between the sentiments pre-
vailing upon the eve of the original

less than half of the present number
of governments were represented
hopes of world peace were high and
there was a vision of disarmament
and the Punishment of war from

OUR SHARE IN PROSPERITY.

In a government report. shown
the uninterrupted prosperity of tn
country, the bureau of statisti,
says:
The government authorities
say there is no more accurate
! barometer of business conditions
throughout the country than the
finance division of the postoflice
department. 1t feels at once
any falling off in trade, no mat
ter how slight, and is able to
tell at a glance whether business
is fast or slack. The fiscal
year 1907 will be banner
twelve months period in the his
tory of the postal service. Re
ceipts will be considerably in ex-
cess of $50, 1000. 600, and in add
ton there will be a marked de-
cline in the postal deficit. Last
year the postal receipts aggre-
gated S16SlO0O. 900; in the fiscal
year 1895 they were S152 ,000,-
600. In the fiscal year 1905 the
postal deficit was approximately
s14,OOO,OOO, and last year it
was $40, 100000. This year it
will drop way below the S10,-
100000.
Officials predict that within a
comparatively short time, with
conditions favorable, the postal
: receipts will run up to $780,
/ 600, 900 a year and over. In 1899
Uncle Sam collected through
! the postal service the sum of
$95, 200, 000. In 1900 the fig
ures passed the century mark,
and they have been climbing
steadily upward.
In readjusting the salaries of
postmasters, which up to a GER
tain point are based on stamp
cancellations the officials found
that the present prosperity, as
far as it affected the postal serv-
ice, spreads into every state in
the Union Every section of the
country has it's proportionate
share.
This latter statement is especial
to Paducah for the pos
masters salary here was increase
500 by reason of the il
crease to approximately $50, 90
in annual receipts. There can be L
doubt that the postoffice is tru
barometer of business condition
among all classes Of people. Thei
is no drumming of trade by the pos
Office, no bargain inducements.
simply stands there as a convenient
to the public in transmitting ma
and money, and as the town grow
or diminishes in population and bus
ness, the postofIice receipts nece
sarily wax and wane. But there al
no sudden and temporary fuctu;
tions. The business steadily gain
or it steadily decreases in a year.
II IS gratifying to know that tn
whole country is prospecting. TIL
qualification is heightened by tn
knowledge that Paducah is sharin
her full measure in this prosperity.
