REGISTERED MAIL
SenderS May Now Limit the
Delivery by IndOrSe-
ment

OUT NEW ORDERS

Postmaster-Ge General Hitchcock has
Just amended the regulations govern
ing the forwarding and delivery of

the circumstances under which reg
istered letters or packages may be de-
livered to others than the parties to
whom they are addressed.
AT present registered mail may be
delivered to any person authorized
in writing to receive it by the person
to whom it is addressed; to such
person as the sender, after mailing, in
written order verified by the mailing
postmaster; TO any responsible per-
son to whom the addressee's mail is
customarily delivered, and may be de-
livered to the person, firm, corpora
tion or association in whose care it
is addressed. Identification must al
ways be required If the applicant for
registered mail is unknown.
Senders of registered mail may
restrict its delivery by Endorsement.
Mail indOrsed Deliver to addressee or
order" cannot be delivered except to

be made. If the addressee is dead or
insane, the registered mail may be
delivered to his legal representa-
/ tive.
Registered mail addressed to a mi

the control of a guardian is subject to
parents or guardians control,
unless it be indorsed for personal de-
/ lively. Mail that is registered, not

the absence of all knowledge to the
contrary, regard as responsible per-

lations, adult members of the adj

Sour Stomach
II is Caused by Food Not Digesting
in the Stomach and Can Easily
be put In Fine Shape.

Belching of gas and sour food into
the mouth means that the food in your
stomach is fermenting and forming
poisonous gases.
II means more; it means that your
stomach is bad; that it is not pouring
into and mixing with the food the
gastric juices which are necessary to
properly digest food
If this condition is allowed TO con-
tinue the stomach will became habby
and weak and the blood will become
watery and impoverished.
You only have one stomach to take
care of; it will be with you as long
as you live.
Treat it as we'll as you can and
when it fails to do its work and causes
distress, give it the best remedy for
stomach ailments known to science.
Give it MI-O-NA stomach tablets,
the remedy that Miller Drug Com
pany guarantees to cure any stomach
trouble or money back.
There is nothing on earth that will
turn a tired, fiabby, overworked stom-
ach into a strong. vigorous one in so
short a time as MI-O-NA.
For distress after eating, fermenta-
tion, heaviness, heartburn or gas, two
Ml-O-NA tablets will chase away the
miysry. MI-O-NA surely does cure
indigestion, and the price is only 90
cents a large box at Miller Drug Com
pany and druggists everywhere.

First Place For Missions.
Missions, in the Cincinnati Conven-
ton, were given not the second, but
the first place. All business every day
at noon, no matter what IL was, ceased
for a space, so that prayers for the
spread of the Gospel might be said
Not only were one entire day, four ar
ternoons, and four evenings, given TO
the consideration of the church's
greatest work. but the discussions In
both houses for the most part bore
upon missions either directly or IN
directly. There were. for instance, the
propositions touching districts on
racial lines and suffragan bishops.
While only the latter was adopted,
both were warmly advocated In the
hope that we might do a more telling
work In great centers like New York
and Philadelphia, and in the commu-
mites of the south, where the negro
forms a large part Of the population,
We. moreover, after many hours OF
serious consideration, passed a canon
for a radical reorganization OF the
Board of Missions, created four new
missionary districts. three in our own
country and one in China. elected SIX
new Bishops for the missionary WORK
and added two missionary fields to the
list of self-supporting dioceses.
1--WE, when Cincinnati's largest au-
ditorium was filled even to the second
of the great galleries with bishops,
priests. laymen. and lay-women, took
a retrospect of the recent and more
distant past. We discovered that while
we. seventy-fve years ago, had only
fortv-six missionaries at home and
none abroad. we now have 240S In the

I'm the happiest little woman,

Barn Quilted.

About midnight Monday a barn on
the alley opposite the rear of Henrys
store caught fire., probably from sky
rocket, and burned stubbornly until
about 30 next morning quitting it
thoroughly, When first seen the blaze
was small and boys attempted to put it
out by tearing off the shingles. The
only thing accomplished was to let the
burning shingles drop through into
straw and in few minutes the whole
structure was in blaze. The local
firemen responded to the call of the bell
and did good service, but it was
difficult to extinguish the fire after it
got into the baled straw. About ton
OF baled straw belonffing to S. G.
Henry, the grocer, was burned so badly
that 1t must be thrown away. sc.
Henry also kept horse and sled in the
barn, the latter OF which was burned.
The barn was the property of E..

Numerous Election Precincts.

The following extract from the ad
dress of the president Of the Pennsyl.
vania Bar Association at its session
last week at Cape May, is very applic.
able to conditions existing in this
section;
Speaking of the amendments OF the
constitution, he said that the real
object was to do away with the SC
called spring election. He regretted
the fact that there was, back OF the
passage of these amendments, an in
creasing indisposition on the part OF the
people to go to any trouble in the per-
formance of their most responsible
duties Of citizenship.
For years past this tendency has been
asserting itself in an inordinate demand
for more numerous election precincts.
Their multiplication has been counten-
anced in the hope of thereby minimiz-
ing the irksomeness to the voters of the
exercise of their franchise and OF en-
couraging more general participation
in elections. But ION the pasture of
hope Craze many fools "says the Russian
proverb. The upshot has been that the
cost Of elections has mounted up pro-
digiously, and the size of the vote
polled, as compared with the growth
of the population, has steadily gone
down. Latterly, save upon exceptional
occasions OF local or national concern,
no election seems able to bring out even
decent proportion Of the persons who
ought to vote, and unhappily the stay
at-home element is largely made up of
those presumptively best qualified to
vote intelligently and most likely, il
voting at all to vote honestly. The
remedy now to be applied is to reduce
the number of elections. That Is to
say, a man who has shown himself
habitually Indifferent to certain duties
is relieved Of part Of them In the ex-
pectation that he will thereby be
shamed into performance of the rest;
a lazy school-boy Systematically playing
truant is given dispensation from at
tendance upon certain days on the
assumption that be will feel disposed to
answer to the roll-call on the remaining
ones.

Death of Frank Foley.

Frank Foley, former Reynoldsville
man who has resided in Dubois for
some time, was found dead on a street
at that place Thursday morning of last
week by newsboy who was making
the rounds at an early hour. The
coroner was notified and investigated,
but decided that an inquest was un-
necessary, the evident cause of death
being heart failure induced by alcoholic
poisoning. According to the stories of
friends of the unfortunate man, they
had started to walk home with Foley
the night before but when he collapsed
they left him along the way. Some
time during the night life passed
away apparently without struggle.
The remains were taken TO his home on
Maple avenue, Dubois where funeral
services were held Saturday afternoon
and the body was brought to Reynolds
vile for burial.
Frank Foley was known we'll in this
section of the state through his playing
with the Indian" football team in the
days when 1t held the championship Of
Western Central Pennsylvania. With
great skill and endurance he was a
tower of strength to the famous
"eleveu."

And Jefferies Couldn't Have Done It.

Charles A. Scott, lineman on the
Pennsylvania railroad, has been going
around the past week with the ap-
pearance of a man who had been In a
ten foot ring with Jim Jeffries, only, as
"Charley" complacently remarks,
Jeffries could never have "done him
up" half so bad. 1t took the careless
ness of other linemen, the force of
gravity, thirty-five foot fall and a
rock pile to do the work.
MIR. Scott was up a telephone pole
where the wires turned at right angles
when some one loosened the guy clamps.
The pole bent, rebounded and broke,
knocking Scott out into the air heels
over head for thirty-five foot fall. He
landed on his head on pile Of stones.
BY some miracle he retained con-
seriousness enough to get up and walk
a few feet in dazed way before he dis
covered that his head was cut open, his
ribs knocked askew, and his body a
mass Of bruises. Some one asked him
where his nose was. Charley" felt for it
and it wasn't there. 1t was finally
located near his left ear and twisted
back again. Mr. Scott decided to come
home and enjoy the big Fourth of July
celebration while waiting for his head
and ribs to heal.
