Wherever rural free delivery has been established it has been followed by an increase in the net postal revenues of from eight to ten per cent. Poor over worked Congress! After sitting a few hours on eight or ten days it had to take a rest of nineteen days. Still, we poke fun at some countries for having so many holidays. Parents who would be shocked at the idea of permitting their daughters to stay out evenings with frivolous companions will permit them to stay up evenings with books that are worse than frivolous. Ou a rural free delivery route recently established in Kansas there were three subscriptions to daily papers.

It should serve, however, to make us thankful that we live in the best country on earth. Although there are over 5- 000,000 pupils enrolled in the common schools of the United States nearly one in every five of the total population of the country and very nearly 17-000,000 17-000,000 pupils of all ages securing secur-ing instruction in one kind of school or aiittther, the extent of our illiterate adult population ii disagreeably large. The census report on the subject just issued stat es the total number of males of voting age at 21,329,819, and reports 2,326,203 to be illiterates. T he following wise remarks are made by the editor of the Price Advocate: "The average ambitious town puts in a great deal of time and labor trying to secure the attention of outside capital. The really . important thing, however, for a town that would crow and flourish is to awaken the confidence and en thusiasm of its own people. This is only too true. There are many things that Price people can do to increase trade, push the growth of the town and increase the prosperity of our people. Unitv of action on the part of the people will do more toward restoring the full est confidence, increase values, solidifying trade and nuking our people prosperous and con tented than anything else, It will bring needed industries' ....... . i ftuicii ouiiii up towns, let us apply the- means we Lave and needed outside capital will come without the asking." A destructive parasite lias attacked at-tacked the sugar beet plants in Hungary, and is creating consequent conse-quent alarm. It seems almost inevitable that the development of any speciiil agricultural in dustry must be followed by the development of a destructive in-sect in-sect pest. At fmt the luxuriant luxur-iant hop vines in Oregon and Washington were exempt, and great and very profitible crops were raised; but the vermin have found out the hop fields and have nearly ruined a prosperous pros-perous industry. The phylloxera phyl-loxera has devastated European vineyards. The potato has its insect enemy. It was hardly to be expected that the sugar beet should remain- immune, and it will be well to keep a wary eye on the progress of the invader in Hungary. There is no attack at-tack which mankind finds more difficult to repel than that of hungry insect enemies. An Evangelist's Story. "I suffered for years with a bronchial bron-chial or lung trouble and tried various remedies but did not obtain permanent relief until I commenced using One Minute Cough Cure," writes Ilev. James Kirkman, evange list of Belle River, III. "I have no hesitation in recommenJing it to all sufferers from maladies of this kind." One Minute Cough Cure affords immediate relief for coughs, colds and all kinds of throat and lung troubles. For croup it Is unequalled Absolutely safe. Very pleasant to take, never fails and is reallv a favorite with the children. They jute lt.reopie s urug uo. - -4BV- COLD FOUND IN A CRAVE. Digging Hoe for Drowned Companion Mo ULcoven Went lu The Oliver Martin nugget, the 'r-gest 'r-gest single mass of gold eve? found In California and which sold for J22,-700 J22,-700 after having earned I0,009 by be- tug placed on exhibition, had a grew- man named 011verMJrun,""IitUe aet- bnwn,knilnm ter known than a tramp. He spent tis time in doing odd Jobs and drinking whisky around the mining camps of Yuba, Tuoloumne, El Dorado and Calaveras counties. Ke didn't even own a pan, much less a rocker or long torn. One of his best companions was John Fowler, who wa3 equj-Ly shift less and dissipated. One night in No vember, 1854, the two were on their way from Benton Bar over the Grizzly mountains to Camp Corona, the spot, made famous in literature by B.et Harte. The fall rains bad be?un and the streams were running high. Cn the night of the 17th, when almost stupid with drink, the two songht refuge in a deserted miner's hut. During Dur-ing the nigbt a heavy rain, peculiar to the mountain ranges, set in. The water fell In torrents and came pouring pour-ing down the precipitous mountai sides. The narrow canyon where Mrr-tin Mrr-tin and Fowler lay asleep and drnnk was soon filled with rushing waters, which threatened to sweep away the old shack of a building. They wer6 awakened by the water pouring in the ."abln and sought to escape by climbing climb-ing the steep sides of the canyon. Both men were swept back into the flood and were carried down the stream in the darkness. Martin was washed into a clump of live oaks and managed man-aged to lodge, clinging to the branches until morning, but Fowler was drowned. Next day, Nov. 18, toward noon", when the waters had subsided, Martin secured a pick and shovel and started to bury ils dead companion. He selected a si-ndy spot at the base of the cliff and '.ad not dug down two feet when he came upon the nugget He made several tests before he could convince himself that It was really gold. The chunk was bigger than a bull's head and too heavy for Martin to carry. He hurried to Camp Corona to secure help He had some difficulty In persuade any one to go with him. At last a miner contented, but carefully care-fully made the statement that he was going to help bury Fowler and not to help carry nuggets, as he, like others oth-ers In the camp, placed no confidence 'n Martin's story. The chunk weighed eighty pounds and required the combined com-bined effons of Martin and his assistant assist-ant to get it to the camp. A (iood Cough Medicine.

KEEP YOUR BLOOD lilt AN Sallria's City Marshal. The man who serves Salina in the capacity of town marshal must expect to gain the ill will of seven-tenths of the people in town. lie must crawl on his belly to the temperance element and assume the same reptilian posture when dealing with the saloons, and he must give ear to the hog-wash suggested by dozens of erstwhile thoughtful citizens. The) position makes a hypocrite of a man. If he stands pat with one faction he is damned by the other. Edit ing a newspaper in bad enough, t he Lord knows. Serving a term as town marshal is hell.
