Washington.-The A. n p A
through it's postal committee of which
DON C. Seitz of New York is chair
man, has joined in the fight against
the proposed increase In second-class
rates and in its last bulletin the COM
mittee attacks the management of the

is as follows:
The extent to which the post

the following abstract of inquiry of
publishers conducted by house com,
mittee on expenditures in the post
office department (WiIliam A. Ash
brook, chairman concerning the vol
ume, weight and handling of the out
put of publications entered as mail
matter of the second-class for the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1911:
Inquiry was made of all publish
ers, approxfmating thirty thousand, of
which nearly@seventeen thousand are
weekly publications.
More than ten thousand returns
plus per cent of all tonnage of pub

The publications reporting repre-
sent an annual output of more than
six and one-half billion copies, she

"All this goes to add to the alb

from one to two cents per pound, and
limiting the privilege to publications
that carry as much reading matter as
they do advertising.
THE proposition was stupid enough
when the postal deficit reached SIT,
100000 two years ago. 1t becomes
preposterous in face of d surplus.
What business has transperta-

Newspapers cannot afford to eX-

expected to control the requirements

they care to.
1t cannot be assumed that such
legislation will ever get by congress.
But publishers are requested to fight
the theory that the right to send their
output by mail is a privilege" The
figures show it is not
THE post Office is badly man

As one grows old the waste Of the

less effectually than in youth, the cir
culation is poor, the blood thin and
digestion weak.
Vinol, u delicious cod liver and

strengthened and body-builder for old
folks, for it contains the very ele-
ments needed to rebuild wasting tbs.
sues and replace weakness with
strength. Vinol also fortifes the sys.
tenn against colds and thus prevents
pneumonia.
A g~randneice of Alexander Hamil-
ton, over eighty years Of age, once
remarked: "vinol is a godsend to old
people. Thanks to Vinol, I have q
hearty appetite, sleep soundly, feel
active and well. 1t Is the finest tonic

If vinol fails to build up the
feeble old people, and create
