Mr. Caure of Kentucky has the gift Of plain speech He
used the other day. for the benefit of the interesting gang
that have been trying for long time to compel the Post
Office to buy collection of junk known the pneumatic
tube service.
The same men, and by the way, the same Congressman
that fight every effort to buy something USEFUL for the
Posoce the telephone the telegraph for instance are
eager to compel the Postoce buy this pneumatic tube
euterprise which is failure something the POstofhce
doesn't want and something the private owners anx
ious to unload.
The case came up again recently in the form Of what
looked very much like an effort to blacma the Postoffce
and Postofhce officials into spending millions Of public
money for worthless trash.
s. n substance the Wall Street crowd with the pneu-
a&iC Junk for sale said to the Posoffce eff you don
buy what have and want to unload and from an
approaching bond payment for which are not ready,
we win investigate you, attack you, and dscredit you
Of course, the Postoffce viii NOT buy the pneumatic
ube enterprise It is inefficient it works badly it destroys
mail il is white elephant the hands Of men that are
trying to sell it.
by Misrepresentation otherwise the owners Of this
worthless pneumatic system should persuade Congress to
vote its purchase is probable that the President VIII
find moment to investigate the matter-and that viii set
tie t. The veto exists and gentlemen with junk for sale
must know that the President is not easy man to de-
cefve, one easily inundated
This Is written to congratulate Mr.. Cantren Of Ken
tuy on his good description of the crowd that has under
taken to force the people of the United States to spend ten
millions Of dollars buying what the Postoffce doesn't want
because private owners are anxious to unload it
The Washington times., 1918-06-05

A MOTHER OF THREE asks why
the postofice has shut down on send
ing magazines and newspapers
abroad to the boys with PershiEg-
The answer Is that there is no such
order. Newspapers and other publ
cations are still mailed by the pub
fishers; and the general public may
send magazines and newspapers at
the transient second class rate OF l
cent for each four ounces or fraction
Of four ounces"
There is, however. a restriction On

"CAN IBE
CURED?o

How often have you heard that
sad cry from the victims Of disease.
Perhaps the disorder has gone too
FAR for help, but oftener it Is Just in
Its first stages and the pains and
aches are only natures first cries for
help. Do not despair, Find out the
cause and give nature all the help
you can and she will repay you with
health. Look after the kidneys. The
kidneys are the most overworked or
gans of the human body, and when
they fail in their work of filtering
and throwing of the poison that con-
stantly accumulates in the system,
everything goes wrong. GOLD MED
AL HARLEM Oil Capsules will give
almost immediate relief from kid
Iney and bladder troubles and their
kindred ailments. They will free
your body from pain in short order.
But be sure to get GOLD MEDAL.
Look for the name OF every box. In
three sizes, sealed packages. Money
refunded IL they do not help you.
