A Handsome Woman

Every woman may not be hand
some, but every woman should
keep with caro- the good points
nature has given her. No woman
need have sallow skin, dull eye,
blotchy complexion, who pays
proper attention to her health.
Where constipation, liverderange-
ments, blood impurities and other
irregularities exist, good complex
ion, bright eyes and sprightly
movements cannot exist. Internal
arrangements reveal themselves sooner
or later on the surface. Headache. darl:
rings around the eyes, sallow skin, a con.
slant tired feeling---mean that the liver
and digestive organs are needing help and
correction. Chamberlain Stomach and
Liver Tablets give this necessary help
They work In natures own way. They do no,
merely flush The bowels but tone up che liver snd
stomach to fulfil their proper functions. So mild
and gentle do they act that one hardly. realizes
that they have taken medicine. ChemberiAin's
Tablets can be relied upon to relieve bilousness,
indigestion, constipation and dizziness. Sold ev-

In England durlll- he reign I'll
Henry VIII. the pubic mind became
greatly excited through several eases

a law making boiling to death the pen

made retroactive. so as to take In

at Rochester. The inflictiOn was at

was put into caldron of cold water
and gradually cooked to death.
few years later. in March. 1912. a
young woman named Margaret Davy
was punished in similar way on con-
viction of poisoning. The public was
not satisfied as to her guilt. and. not
withstanding the comparatively slow
travel of news in those days, the story
of Margaret Davy'S trial and punish

Boiling to death remained on the stat.

himself had dread of being poisoned.
Immediately after his death parlia

THE BAMBOO HAIR.
! SLOW but Sure Poison That 10 Used
by the Javanese.


The young shoots of the bamboo are
covered with number OF very fine
hairs that are seen under the micro
scope to be hollow and spiked like
bayonets. These hairs are commonly
called bamboo poison by the white
men resident in Java for the reason
that murder Is frequently committed
through their agency.

Mccall held that prosecution

ton that the constituted authori-

plaintiffs had established the fact
that their constitutional rights

constitution, on which the litigation
had turned, had been violated and
denoted that without this fact be-
ing fully proved, controversies be-

aries, $4,000, 0OO-Fine Showing.

Neutrality-suspicious., the COM
pilation of which has been COM
pleted at the Postoffice Department
show that the exact reduction OF
the postal deficit during the fiscal
year ended June 80, last, was St1,-
5O0,O The deficit of the previous
fiscal year was Si7,600,000; so that
in one year the deficit was brought
down to S6,10O,O00. In commenting
upon the saving of Sli, 100000 last
year, Postmaster General Hitch
cock said:
This tremendous saving was
made without the curtailment of
the postal facilities in any direc-
ton. On the contrary, during the
year there were many important
extensions of such facilities. In eli
minating wasteful expenditures, the
department has been exceedingly
careful not to hamper in any way
the constant development of the
postal service required to meet the
increasing business needs of the
country.
I'm a word, the departments pol
icy is to extend the service as rap
idly as is warranted by Increasing
population of postal facilities by
handling in a more systematic and
businesslike manner the constant
ly expanding volume Of the mails.
The tables prepared indicate that,
in the furtherance of this policy,
more than 1900 new postof1ices
were established during the last fis-
cal year. Great extensions were
made in the rural delivery system,
SIS new routes with a total mileage
of 1926 miles being put into oper-
alton.
There were appointed from the
eligiblel lists of the civil service
commission over 1900 p~ostotice
clerks to enlarge the working
forces of city postOffices and more
than 1000 additional letter carriers.
The railway mail service was
strengthened by the appointment Of
about $50 new employees.
The aggregate salaries of the new
employees appointed during the year
from the civil service lists exceed
$2,00O,OO0.
Services of postoffice clerks were
advanced in the aggregate $780,
600, while the aggregate salaries Of
letter carriers were increased ST.
$4,000. Railway mail clerks re-
ceived increases of salary amount
ing to almost S250,000.
Mr.. Hitchcock predicted a self
sustaining postal service and one
cent letter postage.
