is much too high, Should the rate
be reuduced from two cents to one
cent believe It will be Of great bene-
fit to business. The increase in the
volume OF mail as a result of the
lower rate would probably cause no
material falling of in the revenues.

tiers would aid small and large busi-
ness alike. This alone would amply
justify the government In taking this
step. And In all other ways the gov
eminent should be helpful in bust
ness affairs, not coercive and repress-
ive."
About sixty bills have been intro
duced In the two houses OF Congress
proposing a reduction In the rate OF
postage on drop letters in one form
or another. None of the members
who have introduced bills seems to
think that the proposed rate will
have any serious effect on the reve-
nues. In fact they seem almost
unaniomus In contending that the
Lose In revenue will be amply taken
care OF by the increased volume of
mail. Many members active in the
fight take the stand that the postof-
ficD department was never intended
to be a money making institution
but to give the people the very best
possible service at. actual cost:
Among the members Of Congress
who have introduced bills and been
active in the agitation for lower
rate of postage on drop letters are:
Representatives Edwards and Vim
son, OF Georgia; Austin and Nickel
lar, of Tennessee; Senator overman,
and Representatives Britt and Sted-
man, of North Carolina; Abercombie,
OF Alabama; Gambler, Of Mississippi;
Aswell, Of Louisiana; Sparkman, OF
Florida; and carlin, of Virginia.

anxious to see postage at one cent
instead OF two cents on letters"
1t seems that certain opponents OF
the proposition have been circulating
the idea that the mail order houses
are to be the principal benefactors
should the bill pass creating q rate
OF one cent on local delivery letters.
The sponsors of the drop letter bills
strongly deny this by declaring that
the conditions are just the opposite.
Instead the mail order people are re-
ported to be leading hard fight
to have fiat rate fixed for all par
eel post matter. With a fiat rate on
parcel post the small merchant would
soon find himself in direct competi-
ton with the great mail order houses
Of the country.
Representative James ]. Britt, Of
North Carolina. former assistant
postmaster general and now a men,
Der of the House postal committee,
says that the proposed rate will
much more than pay the cost of all
local delivery letters and the passage
of such bill will be q powerful stinl-
illus to urban business and local cor
respondence."
In the Senate the agitation for the
passage of such a bill seems to be
just as strong as in the House. A
few days ago Senator Gore, of Okla
homa. went step further and intro
duced a. joint resolution authorizing
the postmaster general to ascertain,
by experiment what effect one cent
local delivery letters would have on
the postal receipts and upon the vol
ume of first class mail matter.
Sometime ago Senator Weeks, Of
Massachusetts, prominently men,
toned for the presidency by the lte-
publicans, said Considering what II
costs the government to handle local
delivery letters the rate of postage

Common Sense Will Stop
Horrible Rheumatism

The famous opie, great English
painter, was once asked what he mixed
his paints with. BRAINS" he replied
Rheumatism cannot live long in a
body that is cared for by head full
Of brains. Brains or common sense is
an avowed enemy to rheumatism. The
poisons with which every rheumatic
body is filled, arise in the kidneys, or
stomach or blood. This poison goes
into the blood. It is stronger than
the ordinary forces Of the blood. Il
lodges in the muscles and joints. 1t
gathers around nerves and presses
upon them. It infames the flesh. Pain
comes and remains until the cause Of
the trouble, the acids and poisons, are
driven out of the blood.
