We favor postal savings bank if
the guaranteed bank cannot be secur-
ed, and that it be constituted so as to
keep the deposited money in the COM
munities where it is established. But
we condemn the policy of the repub-
lican party in proposing postal savings
banks under a plan of conduct by
which they will aggregate the deposits
of rural communities and deposit the
same while under government charge
in the banks of Wall street, thus de-
plotting the circulating medium of the
producing regions and unjustly favor
ing the speculative markets.

A Hard Knock.

Railroad claim agents have little
faith in their fellow creatures. One
said recently: Every time settle a
claim with one of these hard headed
rural residents who wants the railroad
to pay twice what he would charge the
butcher If he gets a sheep killed, |
think of this story, illustrative Of the
way some people want to hold the rail-
i responsible for every accident, of
.:ltever kind, that happens. Two
lrishmen were driving home from
town one night when their buggy ran
into ditch, overturned, and they were
both stunned. When rescuer came
along and revived them the first thing
one of them said was, Where's the
train?' why. there's no train around,
he was told Then where's the rail-
road?' The nearest railroad is three
miles away he learned. We'll, well,
he commented. I knew it hit us pref
ty hard, but didn't suppose it knock
ed us three miles from the track! -

MAKE 1T YOURSELF.
Tells Our Readers How to Mix Best
Rheumatism Cure.

A well-known authority on Rheuma-
tism gives the readers of large New
York daily paper the following valuable,
yet simple and harmless, prescription,
which any one can easily prepare at
home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla,. three
ounces.
Mix by shaking well in bottle, and
take teaspoonful after each meal and
at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients can be
obtained from any good prescription
pharmacy at small cost, and, being of
vegetable extraction, are harmless to
take.
This pleasant mixture, if taken regu-
larly for few days, is said to overcome
almost any case of rheumatism. The
pain and swelling, if any, diminishes
with each dose, until permanent results
are obtained, and without iniuring the
stomach. While there are many so-called
Rheumatism remedies, patent medicines,
etc., some of which do give relief, few
really give permanent results, and the
above will, no doubt, be greatly appreci-
ated by many sufferers here at this time.
Inquiry at the drug stores of this
neighborhood elicits the information
that these drugs are harmless and can
be bought separately, or the druggists
here will mix the prescription for our
readers, if asked to-.
