Sinking 4 Spells
Every + ew. DAYS

"At the time I began taking
DR.. Miles Heart Remedy / was
having sinking spells every few
days. My hands and feet would
get cold; I could scarcely
breathe, and could feel myself
gradually sinking away until I
would be unconscious. Those
about me could not tell there
was life in me. After these
spells I would be very weak and
nervous, sleepless and without
appetite; had neuralgia in my
head and heart. After taking
the remedy a short time all this
disappeared and in a few weeks
all the heart trouble was gone"

Postage Stamps.

Postage stamps must be handed out
with the "sticky side up" at the post
office hereafter. For sanitary reasons
the department has seen fit to order all
postmasters to instruct clerks at tie
stamp windows that all stamps must be
handed to patrons without permitting
the gummed surface to touch the base
of the stamp window The order was
issued from the office of the first assist
ant postmaster general and is effective
at once.
Almost everyone who visits the stamp
window will place his hands on the base
where he places his money. The hands
and money might leave deadly germs
upon the counter. The gummed sur.
face of the stamps coming in contact
with these germs would gather them
with disastrous results to the person
who would moisten the stamp with his
tongue.

issued by the department. After Feb.
Is carriers will not be required to pick
up loose coins. They must in the fut.
ure be enclosed in an envelope, wrapped
in paper or deposited in a coin holding
receptacle. The change is made in
the view of the extent of placing loose
coins in the boxes, necessitating delay
in collecting and delivering mail, besides
working hardship on the carriers dur
ing cold and stormy weather.
