Enthusiastic.


Enthusiastic.
No wonder scores of Ell Paso citizens
grow enthusiastic. 1t is enough to
make anyone happy to find relief after
years of suffering. Public statements
like the following are but truthful rep
reservations of the daily work done in
Ell Paso by Doan's Kidney Pills.
Mrs Blanche Cleavenger, 1928 E.
Overland street, Ell Paso, Texas, says:
For eight years 1 was subject to at
lacks of kidney trouble. If / took cold.
it invariably settled in my kidneys and
caused dull ache in my back and right
hip. There was also a soreness across
my loins and 1 had chills. The kidney
secreuons were scanty and distress

or nut meats take first class.
Sausage, smoked or dried, in boxes
or barrels, takes third class. Sausage,
fresh, in boxes or in pals, Grated, also
sausage, n. o. s., takes second class;
therefore, if a shipping tickets reads
two boxes of sausages, it would be
rated at second class.
Style of Package Considered.
TT should also be noted that under
the terms of the classification the style
of package, whether boxes, or crates
or bundles, very often affects the rat
ing, and the shipping ticket should
plainly indicate the kind of package in
all cases"
The above are only a few of the many

RURAL DELIVERY ROUTES.
Suggestions in Reference Thereto
From p. o. Department.

The pOstoffice department requests
patrons of rurat delivery to paint their
boxes and the posts to which they are
attached pure white color. This course
will not only result in protecting the box
and post from the weather, but
WILL give all boxes a uniform color
and serve to fix their identity in
all parts Of the country as United
States mail boxes, giving them a
neater and sightlier appearance. 1t is
also desired that patrons imprint their
names and box numbers on boxes in
black block letters about two inches
high.
1t is also desired that road officials be
induced to paint upon the posts OF boxes
which are located at cross roads (but
not attach signs thereto) the names Of
towns to which the cross roads lead,
with an indicator showing the direction.
These are matters that should be at
tended to, adding not only to the ap-
pearance OF things but proving a con.
yenience as we'll.
