THE RURAL MAIL.

There's lots of Jobs chap can have beneath
old Uncle Sam,
From serving in the army down to testing beef
and ham;
Or being department clerk down thar in
Washington,
And working down in Panama, they say, is lots
of fun;
But when it comes to gov'ment Jobs country
chap can nail,
I'd rather be the carrier who serves the rural
mail.
It's 10 o'clock each morning, or somewhere
thereabout.
When Jason White, the carrier, comes jogging
down his route;
His yellow sulky creaking loud behind his
speckled nag,
And Jason busy sorting mail out of each leather
bag;
A letter here, paper there-his memry must
not fail,
tell you what, it takes head to serve the
rural mail
It's fun to watch the folks come out when
Jason's whistle blows,
And see him dealing out the mail as down the
road he goes,
The catalogs and sample seeds and Down East
magazines,
And postal cards from Eastport Maine clean
to the Philippines,
Love letters for the love-sick gals, with town
beaus on the trail
By gosh there's lots of happiness hid in the
rural mail.
And once when we were near next the school,
heard young Jason shout,
And then we saw him halt his nag and call the
teacher OUT
And when she asked him what he had, in such
pretty way,
He leaned way out and kissed her-gosh! her
face red all day.
BY hen. of all the gov ment jobs country chap
nail
I'd rather be the carrier who serves the rural
mail.

There is absolutely no way Of reach.
ing the nerves with medicine except
through the blood. The nerves receive
all OF their nourishment and support
from the blood which, under healthful
conditions, carries the elements needed
to rebuild wasted nerve tissue.
Let the blood become deranged and
deficient in these elements and the
nerves will be badly nourished and
headaches, neuralgia, sciatica. functional

High Tariff on Deadly Drug Demanded.

Congress Urged to Protect American Homes
High Tariff on Deadly Drug Demanded.
New YORK, May 81. Calling upon con-
gross for form Of tariff protection that
will guard all American homes from the
ravages of the cocaine habit, thousands
of medical men, philanthropic workers,
and the principal drug houses in this city,
are supporting the recommendation of
the American Health League for federal
control of the deadly drug Only by
placing prohibitory duty upon the for
eign cocaine with which the illegal dis
tributors are now supplied in defiance of
all State laws can the growth of drug
dives throughout the country be checked,
the leaders of the movement declare.
From every section of the land reports
have been received showing that the pee
pie are ready to demand of their repre-
sentatives in Washington this relief from
the vice and crime that is spreading I'M
checked with the free supply of cocaine
from abroad
Only fifty per cent of all the cocaine
consumed in the United States last year
was devoted to legitimate uses, experts
are prepared to show congress, while the
other half of the total sales of this drug
was covertly supplied to the dens of the
dope tiend, " which are rapidly increas
ing While the American manufacturers
and wholesalers are refusing to pander to
the increasing demands of the illicit CO.
caine distributors, and can be held ac
countable by State and local authorities
for their sales, absolutely no hold can be
taken on the backgrounds upply of the
drug from abroad, it is shown. Coca
leaves, from which the drug victims may
extract form of cocaine with which to
meet their craving, are now free of duty
and easily available, it is also pointed
out.
Backed by philanthropic organizations
and individuals throughout the country,
the leaders of this movement have al
ready presented to the finance committee
of the senate at Washington the peoples
claims for protection against the inroads
of the cocaine curse. A prohibitory tariff
of 81. so an ounce on the foreign supply of
the drug is being urged, as we'll as duty
of five cents pound on the leaves, which
will give Uncle Sam a hold upon their
distribution. 1t is also proposed to place
an internal revenue tax upon this drug
and to require it's manufacturers to be
bonded and licensed by the government.
The placing of special revenue stamp on
every package of cocaine, with the record
required to be kept of its quantity and
purchaser, the authorities declare will
result in the speedy restriction Of the
illegal traffic in the drug.
That the senate leaders have up to this
time refused to consider their claims, on
the ground that they were mot concern
ed with the nations morals, twas assert
ed today by leaders of crusade against
the cocaine evil. When the people of
every part of the country are alive to this
chance to check the spreading drug
plague, however, it is believed that every
one of their representatives at Washing
ton. will be urged to it's immediate con
sideration.
