Rural free delivery carriers. OF
whom there are more than 1000 In
Indiana, stand an excellent show of
obtaining an increase in their COM
pensation at this session of con-
gress.
The increase proposed is 800 a
wear for each carrier. This would
mean an additional salary of $500
for the eight carriers out of the
Plymouth office and about $4,000
year paid out to Indiana carriers
in increased wages. As there are APP
proximately 10000 rural carriers in
the United States the increase
would bring an additional charge to
the treasury of about 100000 a
year.
The increase is frowned upon by
the postoffice department officials,
who are making every effort to pare

wells In farming districts is given
in the Surveys report as the most
common reason for their pollution,
and ignorance of the manner in
which ground water circulates is the
cause of the faulty protection.
Chemical analysis is not rated high
by Mr.. Fuller as means of detect
ing polluted water, for he asserts
that careful common-sense inspec-
ton of the district is unusually
much more to the point.
Radius of Danger Zone.
Sources of pollution in the vicinity
of well or spring should be noted
wherever possible, and drinking
water should not be drawn except at
a safe distance from them. The dis
lance required for absolute safety
varies greatly with the character Of
the rock. For wells sunk in sand
stone, slate, and shale, LOO feet may
be sufficient; where the surface
stratum Is composed OF fine sand 200
feet should be allowed; and where it
is limestone or granite much greater
distances will be necessary. Water
may run polluted in limestone for
miles, so that wells in regions where
limestone makes up the greater part
of the surface rock should be careful
ly examined after rains for mud and
floating matter, or these are pretty
sure indications of pollution.
Suggestions for Protection
For protecting wells, springs, and
cisterns, Mr.. Fuller advocates, first
Of all, water-tight lining to keep
out surface water. Wells and springs
should always be covered and protect
ed from animals, dust, and falling
leaves. Watering troughs should al
ways be located safe distance away,
though the custom prevails in coun>
try districts Of having well and
trough side by side.
Mr.. Fuller's report is printed as
Water-Suply Paper 255, which may
be obtained free by applying to the
Director, u. s. Geological Survey,

Plymouth Rural Carriers To

expenditures of the postal service
to the bone, but congress seems dis
posed to authorize it over the objec-
tons of the department. Thus,
while Postmaster General Hitchcock
is chopping down The service right
and left IN order to effect economies,
congress is proceeding TO add $4,000
900 to the cost of running the de-
partment.
Senator Penrose. chairman of that
committee. says there is no daubt,
in his opinion. that congress will do
something for the rural carriers.
He is not prepared to say that the
fiat increase of 800 a year will be
allowed, but if not he expects grad
uated increase in proportion to
length of routes and other condi-
tions, so that the one proposition
will be about as broad as the other
is long and vice versa.

DISFIGURED WITH CRUSTS

Some time ago I was taken with eczema from the top of my head to my waist. It began with scales on my body. l suffered untold itching and burning, and could not sleep. I was greatly disfgured with scales and erusts. My ears looked as if they had been most cut off with a razor, and my neck was perfectly raw. l suffered untold agony and pain. I tried two doctors who said I had eczema in It's fullest stage, and that 1t could not be cured. then tried other rem edies to no avail. At last, tried set of the genuine Cuticura Remedies, which cured me of eczema when all else had failed, therefore l cannot praise them too highly.
 T suffered with eczema about ten months, but am now entirely cured, and l believe Cuticura Remedies are the best skin cure there is." (Signed) Miss Hattie J. Shaffer, R. F. D. 1, Box s, Dancy, Miss, Oct 27, 1910
 T had suffered from eczema about four years when boils began to break out on different parts Of my body. It started with fine red rash. My back was affected first, when it also spread over my face. The itching was almost unbearable at times. I tried different soaps and salves, but nothing seemed to help me until began to use the Cuticura Soap and Ointment. One box of them cured me entirely. 1 recommended them to my sister for her baby who was troubled with tooth eczema, and they completely cured her baby" (Signed) Mrs F. l.. Marber- ger.

Seventy-One Years In a Shoe Store.

Charles H. Wilson of Troy, N. Y., occupies the unique position of having been in business in one building for Fl years; at least he will have completed II years in the shoe business at PAP PA River street August 12 next This record, 1t is believed. can be equaled by few if any shoe retailers in this country. MT Wilson has also been in business for himself for more than 50 years. MT. Wilson Is today just as much in active business as he was al most three-quarters of century ago, when as a thirteen-year-old lad he en- tered the employ of John Leonard Williams of Troy. To be exact, that was August 12. 1S40. MT. Williams kept shoe store at 242244 River street in a building which had been erected in 1903, and so the building now occupied by MT. Wilson for his retail shoe business is one of the old est buildings in Troy.
