AL Departments to Cooperate.

It is announced by the Post Office De-
partment to be the desire of Postmaster
General Burleson that all branches of
the postal service cooperate in "going
after parcel post business" and it Is
said that all subsequent conventions of
postmasters are to be conducted along
the same lines as those mapped out for
this convention.
Under the direction of Postmaster
Praeger, fifty samples Of properly packed
parcel post shipments will be placed on
view, to show the safest and best ways
of packing farm produce for shipment to
cities by mail
The interest Of postmasters generally
in the work of developing the parcel
post Is said to be shown by scores of
reports received by the Postmaster Cen
eral from county and state fairs through
out the country where parcel post ex-
hibits have been installed. No less than
forty Of these reports have been accom-
pared and installed by postmasters at
their own expense. A unique exhibit in
stalled at the Lincoln county fair, held
at Merrill, Wis. is said to have been
housed in a portable house which had
been sent to Merrill by parcel post, to
show that Uncle Sam is now prepared to
transport houses shipped by mail in the
parcel post-if the rules are complied
with.
The officers Of the forthcoming con-
vention here are McClung Patton, presi-
dent; W. H. Parker, w. H. Faulkner.

vice presidents, and c. A. Mckinney, sec
retary and treasurer.

THEATER HEADACHES.

The most frequent case Of head
aches occurring during or after the
theater IL eye strain, insists the Journal
OF the American Medical Association.
People who use the full energy Of the
delicate eye muscles to obtain perfect
vision, are often unconscious Of this
strain. In the theater. the continuous
effort to keep everything constantly
focused exhausts the nerve centers and
headache results. The practice of
seating the audience in total darkness
while they are staring into an intense
ly lighted stage, Is another serious fac
tor. The pupils being widely dilated
in the dark, admit the excess Of light
from the stage, often producing irri-
|tation OF the eyes which lasts some
times for days. Those subject to head
aches should never sit where it il
necessary to raise the eyes to watch
the stage. This unnatural position OF
the eyes Is very tiresome even to those
who never have trouble at other
times. Unfortunately the theatcr-
going pubic has not insisted on proper
ventilation without drafts. The over
heated fo1l air Of itself lessons the
spectators vitality and power Of en-
durance. This followed by drafts fire.

nose. or cold in the head and a dis
agreeable headache from internasal
pressure. which is usually worse the

r. MONEY GOES.
HERE

Ray Stannard Baker was sent to
Washington by The American Maga-
Yin, to trace the income tax dollar and
report penny for penny exactly how
Uncle Sam spends it The result of
his investigation appears in the Au-
gust number Of that publication.
Under the Indirect method Of taxa
ton, by which we still continue to
raise most of our revenues. few people
felt any concern as to what the gov
eminent spent, but with q direct tax
like the income tax several hundred
thousand Americans will feel this
year. for the first time, just what 1T
means to help buy warships and pay
for unnecessary postofiices. Following
Is part of Mr.. Bakers report:
1.-The very first thing that struck me.
and struck hard, was the fact that,
although we have had no great war
in fifty years (and only little one
sixteen years ago). over sixty cents of
every dollar that Uncle Sam collects
from you and me directly or indirect
ly) goes for military purposes in
Guiding continuing expenses OF past
wars-pensions.
II think that few people realize
what this means-in a ration which
considers itself peculiarly devoted to
peace.
"Sixty-three per cent to the army.
navy and pensions, and only thirty
seven per cent to pay all the other
vast and useful purposes Of the gov
eminent, excluding postel service and
the preposterous sinking fund-re-
qufred by law. but never provided in
fact. This thirty-seven per cent only
is available for building the Panama
canal. improving our rivers and har-
bors. supporting the Indians. encour-
aging agriculture. public health and
education, to say nothing Of taking
care Of the entire machinery of civil
government-congre executive, the
courts. and the diplomatic and consular
service.

100000. OF this, $466,OOO, 00O

per cent Of this goes for pensions. re-
tirements. and interest on war debts.

SOMETHING ABOUT SMILING.

AS a nation. we are taking many
things too seriously-the high cost Of
living, feminism, the latest fashion
We look It them SO sternly and 80

pecially at little children and those we
love. We :. SIX children to have old
heads on young shoulders and we re-

signed by Providence for the unloading
Of our burdens. thus writes a contribu-
tor to the Pictorial Review for August,

A woman went to meet the man she
loved on his return from long Journey
During his absence. things had moi

All the way to the station and while

Jagged and there was no light of vel

The woman felt sickening sense Of
disappointment. Here was not relief
but added trouble The words which
rose to her lips were: "Oh, dear. you'v,

Then she went to meet him with he
arms outstretched and smile-a warm

The man who had 80 long borne thi

instantly. His step quickened, hi

he smiled too. So was their meetin
