The hands are the greatest telltaies Of

Aging hands are starved hands. The
skin becomes dry and withered like u

passed the thirty-year milestone she
should give especial attention To keep

Of the hands need the greater part Of

IRONTON. MO-, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3O 1916

The Bankers Trust Co. was holding
company, owning stock in cham of
country banks throughout the Middle
West. 1t had no depositors.
The indictments follow an extended
investigation by Postoffice inspectors
into the use of the mails in the busi-
ness transactions of the Bankers
Trust Co. The company had a pro-
prietary interest in chain of rural
banks in Missouri, Arkansas, Okla
homa and Texas. At the time of its
failure, it was found to have been Dor.
rowing heavily from these banks.
The stock of the company fell from
$3.50 share to $40, on the market,
within five weeks, and within three
weeks more Invent down to $50. It
was charged, at that time, that the
stock had been inflated in value by
the payment Of dividends which had
no basis in earnings of the company.

Suggested Changes in Postal Rates.

WASHINGTON, November 25.-The
ways are now being creased for the
launching of the. movement for the
readjustment of postal rates in the
next session of Congress. This prob
lem was to have been taken up in the
last session but had to be deferred on
account of the consideration required
by railway mail pay. Since this has
been disposed of the committees are
prepared to take up the matter OF
placing the various postal rates on a
more, equitable basis.
A zone system of rates for second
class matter is being prominently
urged to take the place of the present
fat rate which was adopted nearly
forty years ago. The present rate
has for some time been regarded as a
discrimination against the newspapers
in favor of the great national maya
zines. Like the parcel post the pro-
posed zone rates would be based on
the length of the haul.
The postal committees have been
besieged by petitions bearing millions
of names and several hundred thous-
and letters from individuals urging a
readjustment of postal rates with a
view of making possible one cent let
ter postage. A survey of the stu
alton indicates that sufficient changes
will be made in the various rates to
permit the granting of a cent rate
on local delivery letters in the next
session of Congress.
Chairman Moon of the House Postal
Committee, day said: 81 think
that the Committee will take up this
ssecond-class mail matter at the next
session and press it to conclusion at
once. While l cannot speak for the
Committee, this is my desire in the
matter. / do not know what kind of
bill we will pass, whether it will
have zone feature attached to it or
not. This view has been presented
frequently in years past, and some
times received favor and sometimes
not. AS to what shape the legislation
will be in am not able to say, but |
am sure the Committee will give it
the best possible shape in the public
interest"
Commenting on the proposed
changes in the rates on letters, Con-
gresham William P. Borland of Mis-
souri,, said: SIN view of the persist
ent and general demands being made
by merchants and small users of the
mails for more equitable adjustment
of the letter rates of postage Congress
would be justified in taking some
definite action this session on the
proposition. 1t has always been my
belief that the cost of transportation
should have some bearing on fixing
the various rates of postage. The
special local rate, as proposed, would
be a great boon to the small business
man as it would be the means of open
ing up an additional patronage, al
though the benefits to be derived by
the average patron of the service
would be proportionally great"

Spell 1t Out.

An exchange carries the informa-
ton that the post office department
has made new ruling with regard to
the addresses on letters, to the effect
that the names OF states shall no long
er be abbre waited but spelled out in
full. This will prevent much of the
mishandling of important mail matter
and greatly lessen the labor of postal
employees on trains and in the various
offices.
Abbreviations OF such states as
California and Colorado, Maine and
Missouri, ETC., are very similar, es-
pecially when written out in long
hand, and quite often mail is serious
ly delayed by reason of the address
being misread and Che matter dis
patched wrongly. When the writer
was postmaster at Var Buren,, as an
instance, scarcely day passed when
from one to half dozen letters were
| not received which should have gone

children, father and mother, two
brothers and one sister, together with
a host of relatives and friends, to
mourn her departure.
She was devoted wife, kind and
affectionate mother, and a friend TO
all. To know her was to love her;
with kind word and pleasant smile
she greeted all. After a brief illness
of but few short days and the mes
senger of death came on hasty Sab
bath mission claiming the soul of a
dearly beloved mother and severing
forever the tender tie that binds the
child to home. robbing the fireside OF
its richest treasure. How uncertain
indeed is life and how sure is death.
"Watch therefore for ye know moi
what hour your Lord doth come"
When all had been done that loving
hands could do we leaned by faith or
the unseen hand of Him who said
"Lo lam with you always even unto
the end," and in humble submission
said, Thy will, o Lord, be done, like
Job of old; the Lord gave, and the
Lord hath taken away; Blessed be the
name of the Lord.

Many strong man and many a

to thank mother. The care taken dur
ing their childhood brought them past
the danger point and made them
healthy men and women. Thousands
OF children are bothered with incon-
tinence of urine, and inability to re-
tain II is ofttimes called habit. 1t is
not always the children's fault--in
many cases the difficulty lies with the
kidneys, and can be readily righted.
An Ironton mother tells how she went
about it.
Mrs. Anderson Rust, Ironton says:
zone of my children suffered from
weak kidneys and was caused much
annoyance by too frequent passages
OF the kidney secretions, especially
at night. I doctored the child and
tried lot OF remedies but with NO
benefit. Finally Doan's Kidney. Pills
were tried and they gave wonderful
relief. This medicine regulated the
kidney action and deserves endorse.

But the people all are happy,

Thank you, Hughes, for that good

And it's constant, knock, knock,

With each ticking of the clock;
Each blow the tolling of bell
That rang unto roar;
Rang you and Teddy both to-war,
And it's Wilson four years more.
Trundle out your biggest guns
And ring the bells for joy
And purn red fire by the ton
And hold your banners high;
We'll send the echoes to the skies
From oceans shore to shore,
Let praise from every heart arise,
'Tis Wilson four years mora.
We've traded Hughes for Brandies,
And laid Hughes on the shelf,
For man who worships justice
Snapped worshiper of pelf.
Rejoice, the ebb of graft and cant,
Let shout and cannon roar,
The frost is on the elephant,
IT'S Wilson four years more.
And were our ears attuned to hear
The voices that are gone
Come floating down our atmosphere
To join the rising tone,
We'd hear the shouts Blaine ant

And Washington outpour
The frost is on the elephant,

And Jefferson again would join
And Lincoln, Garfield, too;
And Fremont for the Golden state
Would raise glad halloo.

Let shout and cannon roar;

Granite for Road Surfacing.

(Farmington Times.)
The writer was out motoring last
Sunday afternoon with an observant
friend who is familiar with road con-
ditions all over the county. Passing
over Stono and along the road to Iron
Mountain, the wealth of granite stone
is very noticeable. "What a pity
he remarked, "that our County Court
can't see the wisdom and economy oil
crushing this granite stone and sur
facing our roads with it, instead of
the rotten lime stone that is being
used for this purpose and which is
continually being ground to dust and
swept away by wind and rain, so that
the roads are continually needing
patching up-an expensive proceed
ing in the long run. This granite
would make roads that would last and
cost little to keep up"
We we're impressed with the sug-
gestion, and we're told that he had more
than once urged this matter on the
County Court, but that that body had
so far taken no action upon the sug-
gestion. Whether this is because oi
some idea of false economy and that
it would add too much to the cost Of
road building because of the distance
the material would have to be hauled
to some points, we do not know. OF
course the cost would be little great.
er, but when the advantages to be OBJ
tained, the solidity and permanency
of the roads are taken into considera.
ton, would it not be economy in the
long run?
But Stono and the long stretch be-
tween Doe Run and Iron Mountain are
not the only places in the county rich
in granite formation. Splendid gran
ite quarries are also to be found al
around Knob Lick. Not knowing
much about what would make good
road material, we suggested to ouI
friend that the hardness CT granite
and the rough edges of the materia
would increase the wear and tear oI
vehicles, and especially Of the rubber
tires of motor cars. But that, accord
ing to his theory, would be no greater
than results from crushed lime stone
and it soon would become 80 com
pact and smooth as to sweep aside
such objection.
