office, as thousands Of letters do.
If you receive a letter by mistake
anc it is not yours, don't open it,
but return if promptly; and if you
do open it, write on the envelope
Opened by mistake" and sign your
name.
Rural delivery patrons should buy
and keep on hand some stamped en-
velopes and postal cards, and some
one and two cent stamps. Encour-
age your children to write letters
and send post cards to friends; it is
a cheap way to educate them.
Don't get mad and say mean
things about your rural carrier or
postmaster if they sometimes make
a mistake (they are human.
See that your mail box is kept in
good condition. Oil the hinges when
they need it, and if they are not con-
venient for the carrier to drive up
to. change them. If you must put
money in mail box for stamps, put
it in an old envelope or receptacle.
Don't put packages in your mail
box for your carrier to deliver to
some one else on the route, free. 1t
requires postage.
Deposit your letters and cards
of box and not lengthwise.
1t is easier to collect. If you want
to get and send your mail quick,
you should help a little. You should
address your own mail, and also
make out your money orders.

deep and abiding interest in the
fight which Mr.. Bryan is to wage
through the columns of The Com
moner. 1t is fight for the public
welfare; fight against the en-
croachment by special interests up
on the public interest; a fight for
the protection of the men who, in
professional Office, on the farm, in
counting room or in workshop give
honest toll for their livelihood. 1t
is fight to preserve popular gov
eminent as the fathers founded it.
In the initial number of The Com
moner printed in 1901 Mr.. Bryan
said The Commoner will be salts
fed if, by fidelity to the people, it
proves its right to the name which
has been chosen" The Commoner
has proved its right to the name
and because it is giving this proof in
abundance The Commoner deserves
the support Of the American people.
Feeling that a wider circulation of
The Commoner in our section will
materially advance the democratic
cause, and that a large per cent Of
our readers, as we'll as others who
should be regular readers of our
paper, will take pleasure in helping
to Increase The Commoner's inf1u
ence in this community, we have
made special arrangements with Mr..
Bryan whereby we can furnish The
Commoner and Hopkinsville Ken
tuckian at the exceptionally low rate
of $3.50 for one year. This special
rate holds good for a limited time
only. Orders should be sent direct
to this office.

First Cantsiever Bridge.

The first cantalever railroad bridge is the one across the Firth of Forth at Queens Ferry. Scotland It is nearly one and a half miles in length. Fifty one thousand tons of steel were used in it's construction, employing as many as 5000 men at one time. It cost S16,- 100000 and f1fty-six lives. The work men began at either end and worked toward the center. When they met and undertook the last connection it was found that the two ends lacked a small fracion of an inch of reaching far enough to allow the insertion o1 the bolts that were to complete the span. For time this was a puzzle, but was finally solved by an ingenious wcFkman who suggested expansion by artificial heat, and 1t was forthwith supplied by means of burning kerosene oil under the steel girder.

Where Wives Are Kept Under.

A Chinese Mrs. Caudle is incon- ceivable, for she would promptly be returned to her father labeled 'Too nlnchee bhoberry.' Only by one means can the lady obtain any right what ever to use even the mild moral sua- sion wherewith the tactful western wife is wont to turn events to her lik- ing. f as bride the Chinese woman succeeded In sitting on any corner of her husbands clothes at the moment when, halfway through the nuptial ceremonials, they first seat themselves side by side she is understood to oc. cupy the position of mistress in her own house. Even then it generally stops at understanding.-From "Things Seen h China" by J. R. Chitty.

A CORN YEAH.

The Albany Herald Is seeing bright
visions Of future good times for it's
section Of Georgia. This 1t says,
rs going to be a corn year in South
west Georgia. Whether The Herald's
preaching. supplemented with ats prize
contest in corn growing Is responsible
for 1t or not. the fact 10 evident that
more corn has been planted in South
west Georgia than In many years
since the Civil War, perhaps. Drive
which way you will out of Albany
large fields of waving corn are seen
on every side. And the crop Is very
promising. The rains of the past two
weeks, which have been quite general
throughout this section, have caused
the corn to grow rapidly and just now
the average field crop is In the silk
ing stage. A good corn crop means
much for Southwest Georgia. Among
other things 1t means that the farmers
successfully inaugurate the hog and
hominy' system next year.
Beyond a doubt q good corn crop
means much," not only for South
west Georgia but for any other part
of the South. In some sections of Ala
bama the prospects appear to be fine
for good crop OF corn. and that rot
only means hog and hominy,' but In
dependence for the farmer. The prices
that are paid now for corn and neal
in this city are little less than shame
full when 1t Is remembered that Ala
hama, from Tennessee to Florida and
from Georgia to Mississippi Is good
corn country. We congratulate the
farmers of Southwest Georgia IN their
sound judgment and foresight.
