ordinary days work, it is time to ask
yourself this question: Are my kid
neys working right?" The answer may
be easily found.
Weak kidneys slacken their filtering
work and the uric acid circulates with
the blood, in many cases, attacking
the brain, nerves, muscles and vital
organs. Don't wait for the serious

other interesting feature of the ma.
chine is the automatic turning of the
egg upon the belt, thus enabling the
tester to examine it on all sides. The
age may be determined by the way
the egg has settled in the shell. A
perfectly fresh egg shows a clean
deep orange color, while a bad one is
almost black.
AS the eggs pass under the hood
the good ones are left to roll out on a
canvas extension table, while the bad
ones are removed by hand.

New Parcel Post Rules Approved

New Parcel Post Rules Approved.
Washington. - The Interstate Com
merce Commission approved sew
eral changes in the parcel post sys-
tenn which Postmaster General
BurIeson proposes to make January
/. The proposed changes are;
An increase in tine weight limit
to zones No. 1 and No. 2 from 20
pounds 20 so pounds.
An increase in the weight limit
to all other zones from II pounds
to 20 pounds.
A decrease in rates to the third
fourth, fifth and sixth zones.
Books weighing more than 8,
ounces to be carried by parcel post
at regular zone rates, beginning
March 16. Books weighing less
than 8 ounces to continue in third
class at cent for each 2 ounces.
Provision for mailing gold, gold
dust ane gold bullion from Alaska,
in packages weighing not more
than II pounds, at a rate of 2 cent
an ounce.
The proposed reductions in post
age rates are:
Third zone rates. from 7 cents
for the first pound and 5 cents for
each additional pound, to 6 cent for
the first pound and 2 cents for each
additional pound.
Fourth zone rates, from s cents
for the first pound and 6 cents for
each additional pound, to 7 and 4
cents respectively.
! Fifth zone rates, from 8 cents for
the first pound and 7 centS for each
additional pound, to s cents and 6
cents, respectively.
Sixth zone rates, from 10 cents a
pound and 8 cents for each addi-
tional pound, to 8 cents and s
cents, respectively.
No objection to any changes sug-
gested by BurIeSon was made. The
only concern was whether the re-
auctions in rates would result in a
loss to the government. On this
point the commissioners accepted
the figures and judgment Of
Burleson.
The 50-pound limit is confined f
, zones No. l and No. 2 on the theory
that it will enable farmers and
merchants to make much widel
use of the parcel post. According
to postal experts, the Postmaste
General is making 2 cents on the
, cent rate within these two zone
: under a 20-pound weight limit anC
the 5O-pOund limit also will prov
profitable at the rame rates. With
in the first zone 50-pound pack
age could be delivered for 80 cent
and within the second zone for s.
cents.
The number of parcels handle,
: in the first and second zones sine
e the weight limit was increased t
/ 20 pounds and the postage rate
/ reduced, shows an increase of 1
II per cent. the average weight fror
e IL to II pounds and the averag
n postage TT to 10 cents.
