SAVE FARMER TOWN TRIP.
Postoffice Department Plans to Re-
duce Cost of Living.

WASHINGTON. March 22.-Prellm-
mary steps were taken by the post
Office department to-day to perfect
it's plan for reducing the cost OF liv-
ing by having the parcel post carry
farm products direct TO the door OF
consumer. Ten cities were selected
to begin the work of establishing
direct connection between producer
and consumer. Postmaster General
Barleson has already issued an
order permitting the use of crates
and boxes for butter, eggs, poultry,
vegetables and fruit shipped by par
eel post.
Orders to-day went to the post
masters at Boston, Atlanta, St.
Louis, San Francisco, Baltimore,
Detroit, Lacrosse, Wis; Lynn, Mass;
Rock Island, ILL.,, and Washington,
directing them Ito receive the names
of persons who are willing to sup
ply farm produce in retail quanti-
ties by parcels post Printed lists
of these names will be distributed
among town and city patrons.
"By the use of the lists, said
First Assistant Postmaster General
Roper to-day, '.the city consumer
can get in touch with farmer who
will fill his weekly orders for farm
produce. The consumer will re-
ceive the product fresh from the
country, and the personal relation
ship established, no doubt, will tend
to improve the quality. The farmer
will be relieved of carrying his pro-
duce to market, as the rural carrier
will make daily collections at the
farmers own door, of the retail
shipments to city consumers.
Return of Hampers.
'sThe point has been raised that
difficulty will be experienced IN the
return of hampers and other con-
tainers. This problem does not ap-
pear to me to be difficult, as the far
mer may use inexpensive hampers,
whose value would not warrant
their return, or he may use higher
grade hampers, for which he may in
clude an additional charge to be Gre
dited to the consumer on the return
of the hamper by parcels post.
ssThe postmaster general is con-
vinced that this plain is the one
thing necessary to enable the people
of this country to enjoy the. potential
benefits of the parcel post. No one
ever has questioned the possibility
of reducing the cost of living by es-
tablishing direct relations between
the ultimate consumer and the orl-
ginal producer. A complete means
for. such direct transportation was
provided for the time by the es-
sablishment of the domestic parcel
post, but there has been lacking an
agency by means of which the indi-
yidual producer could get in touch
with the individual consumer.
"The postmaster generals plan is
designated to provide this agency
for the most economical distribution
of these products which are consign-
ed in the form of condition in which

A Woman's Face.-Have you ever
noticed that some women who we're
decidedly pretty in youth become
ugly as they grow older
And that some women whose fea-
lures are not regular or handsome
grow more beautiful as they age?
/ think any girl will become beau
tiful woman if she has beautiful
thoughts. And no matter how beau
tiful her face in youth she will be-
come ugly if she is selfish and has
ugly thoughts.
have seen women with faces that
might have been beautiful, yet who
looked ugly to me because l could
tell from the lines and facial express
sion that they had mean dispositions.
l have seen others whose features
were decidedly irregular, but who
looked beautiful because a sweet ma
ture and beautiful soul were shining
through the eyes.
Girls who are envious, selfish and
full of hatred for others grow to look
what they feel and think Muscles of
the face, too often set for evil emo
lions, grow to show the effects of
those emotions even when in repose.
All of us like to see happy, smiling
faces because we like happy, smiling
people; and because we want to be
happy and smiling ourselves.
Nature responds to us. She gives
back what we give her. If we get up
in the morning with crouch on the
world will look grouchy until we get
well again.
If we look on the world with love
and smiles, that world mirrors right
back to us our own spirit
The receipt for beauty is simple
one Have a beautiful soul. Hate
nobody. Envy nobody. Have kind,
generous, beautiful thoughts. Then

PUPILS DRUNK IN ScHOOLROoM
HOME LIFE BLAMED
Philadelphia, March 16.-Making
the sensational charge that children
come to school drunk, and that boys
infest poolrooms and remain in dis
reputable places all night, Miss Viola
w. Daltry, principal of the Wilson
public school, startled officials of the
board of education when she address,
ed meeting of the Home and School
League.
Miss Dalton declared that it has be-
come regular occurrence for pupils
between the ages of and II to come
to their studies filled with rum, and
that she had evidence that hundreds
of parents in South Philadelphia fur
nish their children with liquor in their
homes.
"Poolroom owners in the southern
section permit boys in knockerbock-
ers to frequent their places" she
cried, ''and crap shooting by school
children is a matter of common
knowledge.
What is the answer" she de-
manded. ''Pll tell you what it is. l
can tell you why boys loaf on corners,
infest poolrooms and remain in dis
reputable places at night, and why
hundreds of boys go to the center of
the city and sleep in the shadow of
Office buildings.
ct is because they live in cellars
or in homes where there are not
enough beds to go around"
Miss Dalton made plea for the
establishment of social centers and
boys clubs in South Philadelphia.

wATERY BLIsTERs ON FACE

Smithville. Ind.-"Six months ago
our baby girl, one year old, had a few
red pimples come on her face which
gradually spread causing her face to
become very irritated and q fiery red
color. The pimples on the child's face
were at first small watery blisters, just
. small blotch on the skin. She kept
scratching at this until in = few days
her whole cheeks were fery red color
and instead Of the little blisters the
skin was cracked and scaly looking
and seemed to itch and burn very
much.
I'VE used q number Of remedies
which seemed to give relief for . short
time then leave her face worse than
ever. Finally we got . cake Of CUT
cura Soap and . box Of Cuticura ONT
ment. I washed the child's face with
very warm water and Cuticura Soap.
then applied the Cuticura Ointment
very lightly. After doing this about
three times a day the itching and
burning seemed entirely gone in two
days time. Inside Of two weeks time
her face seemed we'll. That was eight

friends Office in Twenty-seventh
street, was asked to dine. At the near

dived across the platform into an ex-

them at the door Of the Gothamite's

Jacksonville at Work
on Public Dock Site.

Jacksonville. which cannot possibly
profit from the Panama canal traffic
as Pensacola will profit, is at work
on the selection of a site for her mu-
nicipal docks as indicated by the fol-
lowing from the Jacksonville Metrop-
oils:
]. F. Coleman, the man who built
the big New Orleans terminals, is here
gathering information which viii en-
able him to select the best adapted
site for the location OF municipal
docks.
AS consulting engineer, he has
viewed the river front from both the
land and water sides, and is now, with
the help of F. W. Bruce, the local
engineer, compiling such Information
as will enable him to pass Judgment.
Mr.. Coleman says that his own
views will not be tinctured with the
advice of any who may favor any one
site. He will judge the available sites
strictly upon their merits.
Mr. Coleman hopes to have his re-
ports ready for presentation by April
T. The bonds are validated. and when
a site is recommended the Port Com
mission will have no excuse for fur
Iner delay.
Jacksonville is FTorida's largest city
and is the most active business city.
for its size, in the whole South. Yet
Jacksonville with all her railroads and
all her business is not satisfied bat is
going ahead after more business.
Jacksonville can never have the
depth of water which Pensacola now
possesses, but she is going ahead new
ertheless to develop the resources that
she has. She is going after business
and is going to get It.
Pensacola, blessed with natural ad-
vantages" beyond compare, must get
busy at once or lose out in tho great
campaign for business that Is every
where being made.

do just as well, is reason for CONSOLE
dalton.
Nearly every city OF any size is
strewn with the wrecks OF newspaper
enterprises which finally had to sue
sumb to the inevitable. In the future
the tendency will be to limit and prob
ably reduce the number OF papers
rather than to establish new ones.
The business men OF a city do not want
more papers where the morning and
evening field Is each adequately COW
cred. The business man can get more
for his money by concentrating his ad-
vertising in one morning paper and
one afternoon paper, and he can get
it for less cost, than when he
scatters his business amongst a num-
Der OF papers. In fact. the costliest
burden which a business community
can bear is a surplus OF newspapers.
