writer add in his opinion, If there was
a chance to deal with the other post
office, some employees in some post
offices would be more accommodating
to their customers, or the boss" would
find it out and fire" them. Its the
same with some railroad station
agents, this especially where there is
only one railroad depot in town. The
writer calls to mind an agent that ev-

men are the exceptions. AS rule one
is sure of courteous treatment.
And here is matter that this scribe

of some of their employees TO the ex-

stores employ many girls from IL to 20
years of age that not only do not work
for the interest of the firm, but are
often Indifferent, neglectful and some
times insulting 10 their customers. One

treatment country customers receive
at the hands of some snip of a chew

OF going out of one store in NeXtown

other case was where a clerk wher
asked about silver spoons pertly an

solid silver in this store. and then con-
tinued her Interrupted conversation
with the other "salesladyf' The
would-be customer went over to tht
other store and bought one-half dozer
solid silver spoons.
( AS rule these clerks in these stores
take their cue, from the manager OF

humanity in business in Iowa. that "de

And last but not least, many's tht

big showing over last year. There
were over 100 awards in 1908,

Owing TO the short time in
which the promoters had TO get
the chicken fanciers of the coun-
ty together last year. the birds
were not in the best condition
and it is expected that a decided
improvement will be noticeable at
the second annual show.
A great number of inquiries
are being received from fanciers

get a chance at the ribbons. AT
the last show there were not q
great many outside birds entered
but this year the local raisers
will have to get in and hustle SC

which will. no doubt, be entered
from all over the state, will be
interesting and close.

The American people consume

large quantity Of iced drinks Of
various kinds and colors and pay
dearly for it with disordercd
stomachs that refuse to perform
their work bowel complaints, eX-
haustion, congestion, sunstroNc
and many other ills follow, and
from these causes the loss of lie
is great. Doctors say all danger
can be prevented by the proper
use of teaspoonful OF Duffy's
M2!t Whisl;cy il each glass.
1t has been recommended and
used by ministers of the gospel
and temperance advocates and
prescribed by doctors OF every
school as an effectual preventive
and cure of consumption, bron-
chitis, indigestion, stomach trou-
bic, and all diseases of the throat
and lungs.
Dufy's Pure Malt Whiskey is
an absolutely pure distillation OF
matted grain, great care being
used to have every kernel thor
oughly matted, thus producing a
liquid food requiring no digestion
in the form of a pharmaceutical
whiskey, which is one of the most
effective tonic stimulants and in
