sion of the Postoffice Depart.
ment! William Loeb, Jr., Secre-
tary to President Roosevelt;
Jasper Wilson, Secretary to the
Secretary of Agriculture; Fred
erick l. Allen, Commissioner of
Patents; Oscar J. Ricketts,,
foreman of the Government
Printing Office; and many
others, has been an inspiration.
The large number Of competi.
tors means OF course. that a
somewhat higher passing aver
age is now necessary in order
to be certain of an appointment.
Those who receive appoint
meuts are usually those who
have spent months In preparing
for the examination.
The preparation for a Civil
Service Examination is of a
special nature, and many of
those who have passed and re-
ceived appointments would not
have been able to do so but for
the training afforded by the
International Correspondence
Schools, of Scranton, Pa. These
great Schools have had fifteen
years of experience In teaching
by mail and have spent more
than a million dollars In prepar-
ing home.study text books.
While most thorough, their in.
struction 10 so clear that any
one able to read and write can
understand 1t.
The International Cores
pondence Schools are holding a
few educational exhibits this
week IN the store of L. G,
Saunders, druggist, where can
be seen their text books, lesson
papers. ETC., as we'll as lessons
sent by the students to the
Schools, corrected and returned
This exhibit is in charge OF
courteous representatives who
will take pleasure in making
any explanations desired and
taking the enrollments of those
desiring to become students.
This display will probably be
continued through Monday and
Tuesday of next week and a
special discount and attractive
terms will be offeredall those
joining the club now being
formed.

OPPORTUNITIES IN THE
CIVIL SERVICE
Uncle Sam Now Employs Several Hundred
Thousand People at GOOD Salaries.

Tbs growth OF the national
Civil Service System is we'll
illustrated by a statement re-
Gently published. showing that
since Theodore Roosevelt be-
came president 70, 900 additional
government employees have been
put IN the classi fed service
that is, their successors must be
appointed under the competi.
tive examination system. Prac-
tically the only large group of
government appointees now
ontside of the classified service
Is that made up of the fourth
class postmasters.
During the last three years,
for which statistics are avail
able, 109, 1913 persons have re.
ceived appointments, and the
number IF appointments this
year seems likely to be greater
than that of any previous year.
The rural free-delivery ser.
vice Is spreading rapidly. The
number OF routes in operation
March /, 1906, was 35, 081; there
we're then 8,424 pending petit
tious for new routes, of which
294 had been assigned for es.
Establishment.
The liberal pay and vacation
and sick'leave privileges, to.
gether with the easy hours of
government service and the
splendid opportunities present
ed for advancement, have made
the Civil Service very attrac-
tive; and more and more people
are taking the examinations
every year.
The remarkable rise IN Civil
Service of such men as George
B. Cortelyou, who started as a
photographer is now Postmaster
General; M. o. Chance, who
has advanced from the position
of messenger to that of chief
clerk of the great Postofiice De.

Kidney CompIaints.

Kidney diseases are generally found
I'm persons whose blood IL impover-
ished or impure, and whose nerves
have not sufficient power or force to
make the kidneys perform their prop
er functions.
The duty OF the kidneys ia to filter
the blood, and when this fluid is filed
with uric acid and malarial polsons
they become overburdened with ex-
ira work. When the nerves are not
strong, they fail to supply the power
TO do this work; then the Kidneys be-
come clogged and disease sets In.
Kidney complaints usually commence
with cold chills, especially IN the back
and loins, followed with fever and
pain. The pain extends to the blad-
der, loins and thighs. The urine be-
comes highly eolored or extremely
light. 1t sometimes looks red or

Inent after standing; or 10 may be

men. the most vital element OF the
body.

more OF h @ following conditions:
