whore In Town For IA Cents, the
Highest Price. and Delivers It Within
Two Hours.
With the big mail order houses all
over the country fighting SO bitterly
against the extension of the parcels
post idea. it is Interesting to read
what has been done in the town OF
Bradford. England. for the convent
ence and economy of seller and Gus
toner alike
Here the street railways are used,
and agents Offices are located at the
terminal stations of each route. Stamp
ranging in value from = to II cents are
sold by the tramWny company just as
letter stamps are sold at the p0stoilce
and for these prices packages weigh
ing from seven to fiftysix pounds are
delivered at any point within half IA
mile of the car tracks.
The whole equipment of the service
cost but $11O33. and ifty-two boys
and sixteen men comprise the working
force. But in the last fiscal year the
company quickly and safely carried
675.7l9 parcels and made net prof
of $S.413.
The Bradford storekeepers have thus
been able to discontinue the employ
ment Of errand boys. for by this tram
way parcels service parcel can be
delivered to their customers within
two hours after its receipt by the par
eel department. which is quicker than
the pOstofiice parcels post. Indeed. the
tramway parcels service may be said
to commence where the postoffice serv
ice ends. as the latter takes parcels up
to eleven pounds only. while the for
mer collects and delivers them up to
fifty-six pounds.

Keep on boosting, even though
you fail to hear a single "Thank

Be a hero. Help boost your

Patriotism draws on a mans
intelligence as we'll as his vocal

consists not SO much in outward
display Of loyalty as in a con-

Proclaim aloud your preach

terests Of your town when you

to do.
Buy at home. Sell elsewhere.

a TURE. Il 4 "

Ever since the organization Of the
Wonran,s Club Of Fairmont' In the year
1906, the idea OF some day owning "a
club home has been held IN the hearts
and minds OF. the members.
With the growth OF the club tho
idea has also grown and strengthened
until the idea has grown to a fixed pur.
pose. !,3Sg
The work OF the organization has al
ways been hampercd to more or less
degree by inadequate facilities prov.
Ing to the members. that a club home
! Is a necessity II the most effective
work will be done.
When the Womar.'s Club was organ
lied 1t was met with good natured tol.
eranceT by many Of the men as well
as women, which however has given
way to the most profound respect and
the Woman's Club to-day numbers
among its most substantial support!
ers. the most conservative business
men in the city.
The fact that the Woman's Club has
put Domestic Science In the Public
Schools OF the city merits It the sup
port OF every parent In the city, and
when the Medical Inspection Bill be-
comes a law, 1t will add other laurels
to the Woman's Club
| Now that the club has determined to
own club house It Will undoubtedly
meet with the support OF the entire cit
izenship of F'airmont. z
While definite plans are not yet
formed, they will be in the near future,
when meeting Of the club Will ne
called to talk over the plans. S5iss
| A club house on the nterurban car
line within the 5 cent limit seems to be
a fayorite idea, a modest club home,
which can be added to as its needs
! demand. with a large plot Of ground
flor out OF door sports. A play ground
for, boys and girls, tennis courts for
young women, large veranda for
porch parties and out OF door meet
ings are among the attractive features
| which are pictured in the minds Of
enthusiastic club women. :.
| While the idea is still an idea, what
the Woman's Club has started has new
or stopepd under completion yet, and
a club house will no doubt be realized
in the near future.

ASKS POWERS FOR PROTECTION
FROM RUSSIA IN scoERclvE
MOVEMENT AGAINST GIANT.
y OF}THE ORIENT.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.-Notlcc OF
llusslas intentions regarding China
reached the, State Department yester-
day through the American Embassy at
st. Petersburg. 1t appears that the
Russian government, wearied of what
1t regards us persistent disregard for
China OF her treaty obligations toward
Russia, Is about to bring pressure to
bear to enforce her rights, even to the
extent Of Il military demonstration in
the province Of III, the scat OF the pres
ent trouble. The Russian government
promises the American Embassy to ac.
quaint 1t with particulars OF the indlct,
ment against China.
The whole incident comes as great
surprise to the diplomatic service in
Washington for although it was known
That sharp issues had arisen between
Russia and China over conflicting jur.
isdiction In Manchuria and in connec.
ton with commercial privileges in
Mongolia, the situation Is not regarded
as critical and 1t generally was belicv.
ed that In view OF the deplorable. con
ditions existing in China as result
of the trightful famine and the terrible
ravages Of the plague, Russia wouid
generously defer pressing her claims
to the extreme at this time.
That war Will not result from the
last move OF the Russian government
is the confident belief in diplomatic
circles here, for itis generally under
stood that the Chinese are totallyfun.
prepared to meet such Il foe rs Rus.
sia at this iuncture. SO 1t is expected
that China will appeal to the powers,
including America, for fair play.
Relations Strained. !.
| LONDON, Feb. 1.-THE relations of
Russia and China are strained to the
breaking point Russia today notified
the governments OF, Great britain,
France and Germany of her intention
to make q military demonstration on
the Russo-Chlnesc frontier, owing 70
| China's persistent violation Of the St.
Petersburg treaty of 1881.
Russian troops will be sent forth.
with to the district OF III.
The extent OF the demonstration, It
iss added in the diplomatic note, will
depend entirely upon the attitude as
sumed by China.
The vital questions Involved are
free trade in Mongolia. the extra ter
ri,orjal rights Of Russians in China
and the establishment Of Russian
consulate at Robdo, Mongolia.
