RURAL MAIL CARRIERS HAD
THEIR TROUBLES.

How would you like to be rural
mail carrier? Not much, if you had
some of the experiences that befell
the Bourbon county carriers last
week.
All of the carriers on the eight
routes out the Paris postoffice re-
ported they had great deal OF
trouble in making their trips last
week. In some places the snow was
so deep that they were compelled to
leave the road and make detour
through fields in order to get over
their routes. One of the carriers,
Mr.. John Spears, on rural route 1,
had four fingers frozen in the per-
Torrance of duty serving patrons on
his route.
Other carriers made unsuccessful
attempts to keep up their schedule
trips.
On the whole, the patrons of the
eight rural routes were well taken
care of by the carriers, who braved
the elements and personal discom-
forts in performing their duties.
The patrons of these routes should
bear with patience such delays as
may occur during this weather, as
they are inevitable, and they should
consider themselves fortunate In
having such a good class Of men al
their service.

ELECT THE RIGHT MEN

From the Dover State News.
Now is the time for all Delawareans
who believe in religious freedom and
personal liberty to see TO it that the
right men are elected to the Delaware
General Assembly at the coming cleo
tion. They should see that the right
men are nominated, so that they can
be voted for on election day. A recent
ruling Of Judge Churchman, in the
Municipal Court of Wilmington, on the
question Of Sunday baseball which was
agitated by the employees Of a shipyard
or that city, uphOlds the old Blue Laws,
and makes them menace that can be
called into play at any time. Not only
can these old laws be enforced with
regard to Sunday baseball and the sale
Of ice cream on Sunday, but they can
be enforced to the letter, which would
practically stop all business Of every
nature on Sunday. Il would be the
part Of wisdom as we'll as justice to
see that the old Blue Laws are either
repealed at the next session Of the
Legislature, or are amended to make
them apply to modern day conditions,
and the voters of the State should in
terest themselves to this end at once.
See that the right men are nominated,
and they will be elected The time has
come when citizens Of Delaware must
fight for their personal rights and lib

HOW 1T HAPPENED.
Mr Ashelman is only one of thousands
who suffered for years, owing to the gen
Vral belief I'm the old, false theory that
uric Acid causes rheumatism. 4 his err
roneous belief induced him and legions Of
unfortunate men and women to take
wrong treatments. You might Just as well
attempt to put out a fire with oil as 10 try
and get rid Of your rheumatism, neuritis
and like complaints, by taking treatment
supposed TO drive Uric Acid out of your
blood and body. Many physicians and
scientists now know that Uric Acid never
did, never can and never will cause rheu-
matism; that II is a natural and neces-
sary constituent OF the blood that IL is
found I'm every newborn babe, and that
without II we could not live!
HOW OTHERS MAY BENEFIT
FROM a GENEROUS GIFT.
These statements may seem strange TO
some folks, because nearly all sufferers
have an along been led to believe in the
old Uric Acid" humbug. IL took Mr.. Ash

In the matter Of Alsace-

Of the several Balkan States
10 one another determined
by friendly counsel along
historically established
lines Of allegiance and ma
tionallty, and international
