Rural Carriers Carrying Packages.

A circular letter was last week re-
ceived by the Leon postmaster direct
ing him to use diligence in enforcing a
closer observance of the law which per-
mits rural carriers to carry merchan
disc for hire for and upon request of
the patrons of their routes.
Under the provisions of this law rural
carriers are permitted only to carry as
express matter such articles or pack
ages as are unavailable matter.
Reports have been received at the
department that many rural carriers
were lax in the observance of this law
and the department regulation pertain
ing thereto, and that in some instances
merchants we're resorting to ingenious
devices to render matter unavailable
and thus avoid postage, by the addition
of brickbats, stones, pieces Of iron, and
loose matches tied to the packages.
Decisive action in the matter became
necessary.
Postmasters have been directed to
examine packages brought to the post
Office for delivery by rural carriers for
the purpose Of ascertaining whether the
contents are unavailable, and where it
is found that extraneous matter of no
value, or articles that have not been
ordered by patrons have been added to
packages, to render them unavailable,
the carriers will not be permitted to de-
liver the articles for hire. The depart
ment insists that carriers shall not
handle mailable matter unless regularly
in the mail and the postage paid there
| on.

WHY SUFFER.
Breathe Hyomei and XIII the Loath-
some Catarrh Germs.

Just as long as you have catarrh your
nose will itch, your breath will be foul,
you will hawk and spit, and you will do
other disgusting things because you
can't help yourself. The germs of catarrh
have got you in their power; they are
continually and persistently digging
into and irritating the mucous mem
brane of your nose and throat. They
are now making your life miserable; in
time they will sap your entire system
of it's energy, it's strength, it's vigor and
vitality.
But there is one remedy that will kill
the germs and cure catarrh, and that is
Hyomei, the Australian dry air treat
ment.
LIP. Van Werden, the druggist, will
guarantee Hyomei to cure catarrh, or
money back. Don't delay this pleasant
antiseptic treatment. Breathe In Hyomei
and kill the germs.
Up. Van Werden will sell you CON-
plete Hyomei outfit, including inhaler,
for only $1.00. 1t is also guaranteed to
cure bronchitis, asthma, cough, colds
hay fever and Group.

The Silly Drunken Man.

There are people who look upon
drunken man with pity, as the victim
of misfortune, the same as one who is
sick or injured. Possibly in certain
cases of hereditary inebriates, that
view is warranted. There are others
who view the drunken with anger; en-
ragged that any human creature should
sink below the level of the beasts. And
still others are simply disguised at the
sight OF drunkenness; view it as one of
the unpleasant sights which must be
seen occasionally, bat which should be
forgotten as soon as possible. But
there is no sober man who likes to see
never the humorist he imagines, but a
good deal more of a driveling idiot than
he would care to admit when sober.
But when sober he probably admits he
was somewhat foolish when he had his
"head full" But the strange thing is
that men will repeat the performance,
which they know is foolish, and can
never do other than injure them. Not
only repeat it the second time, but
again and again, until being tight" be-
comes the single consuming passion of
their lives. 1t is not pleasant finish,
the drunkard's end, and few who start
thai way intend to go the route. And
they would not if men were not so con-
ceited. Rid man of his conceit, and the
/ temperance problem is almost solved
for not many now drink through ignor.
ance. They know the end, if they fol
low it to the end it is bad, but trust tc
their Superior Will Power to put on the
brake in time. Then they load up or
the stuff which weakens will power al
the same time it is sapping physica
strength and mental ability. 1t is {
dangerous game to play, as we'll as fool
ish, but men, particularly young men
are not always opposed to the elemen
of danger, nor are they always over
wise.-Atchison Globe.

CAN YOU IDENTIFY HIM.
Nebraska Officers Trying to ldenti-
fly Man Murdered Near Valen-
tine.

Sheriff Wallace is in receipt OF cir
cular letter from the sheriff Of Valentine,
Neb., relative to the identity Of young
man who was murdered and thrown into
the Niorbrara river near that place a
few days ago. The letter enclosed a
photograph of the man who was MUIR
dered.
According to the circular the muir
dered man went to file on government
land, presumably in the Rosebud reser-
walton, was murdered and his body
thrown into the Niobrara. He is des-
cribed as being about twenty-five years
of age, smooth shaven, we'll kept,
weighed about It's pounds, 5 feet and 8
inches tall, blue or light brown eyes,
brown hair, receding from temples
shoes made by the M. D. Wells company
clothing black and union made, celluloid
collar 49,, fleece lined underwear home
made.
There seems to be no other means Of
identifying the young man and it is
hoped that the circular which is being
sent to all parts of the country will re-
suit in his identity being disclosed.
The police and many others have seer
the picture and the description, but nc
one has recognized the individual anC
no one knows of anyone missing.

Burned to Death in Her Home.

Mrs. Monroe Newton, Of Benton town
ship, was burned to death Wednesday
night at her home three miles south
west of Maloy. At about eleven o'clock
Mr.. and Mrs. Newton discovered that
their house was on fire and began to
carry out the goods. The fire had gain
ed great Roadway and after they had
removed few of the goods, Mr.. Newton,
realizing the danger, told his wife that
it was dangerous to try to save any,
thing more and they started to leave
the building, but before they could get
out, the flue fell with crash and Mrs.
Newton was struck by the falling fue.
Mr.. Newton succeeded in reaching the
door. By this time the building was a
mass of flames and it was impossible to
remove the body until yesterday morn

Editorial Notes.
BY J. D. WATSON.

One question about the next Presiden-
tial campaign has been settled, and that
is that Secretary Taft will be candidate
for the Republican nomination.
He made his opening speech in New
York on January 10, and his speech
seems to have pleased the Wall Street
element
At any rate, there is nothing in the
speech to make the reformers fear that
Taft will ''steal their thunder"
Secretary Taft's formal announcement,
coming at this time, about means that the
race for the Republican nomination will
be between Taft and Hughes, with the
chances of success greatly in favor of Mr..
Taft
With Secretary Taft the nominee of
the Republicans, the Reform forces must
sit up and take notice or go to defeat
again in the coming Presidential election.
Taft is member Of Mr. Roosevelt's
administration, and, unless the reformers
watch him closely, he will lead many a
Roosevelt follower, who is in favor of
Roosevelt policies, to support him. On
the other hand he will get the corporation
support, unless the reform forces let the
Chas F. Murphys, August Belmonts, and
"Fingy" Corners control the next Demo.
cratic convention, as they did the last
and nominate another Judge Parker.
