A FRAUD EXPOSED. A week or so ago The Plaindealer re feeived a postal card from the "National Publishers Bureau" of Chicago, inform­ ing us that under a new ruling of the postal department, papers could not be mailed as second-class matter to patrons whose subscriptions were not paid in advance, and requested us to write our congressman. United States senator and the new postmaster general a protest against the ruling. The St Charels, Chronicle also re­ ceived such a notice and at once took the matter up with the local postmaster. He had heard of no such ruling, but forwarded the card to tjie third assist­ ant postmaster general, Edwin C. Mad­ den, who under date of Dec. 28, 1901, writes as follows: Washington, D. C., Dec. 38, 1901. Sir: In reply to your letter regard- teg a recent ruling of this department relative to paid-in-advance snbscrip- you are informed that the depart­ ment has not ruled that only subscrip­ tions paid in advance are legitimate. There has been no new ruling in this regard. Reasonable credit subscrip­ tions to legitimate publications are un- , objectionable under the law and regula­ tions, as heretofore. The report circulated by the National Publishers Bureau appears to be de­ signed to embarrass the postal reforms now in progress. Respectfully, Edwin C. Madden, . ®hird Ass't Postmaster General. =. L„JThe Plaindealer has since received a .. marked copy of the Springtield, Ohio, Hews, m which several columns are de­ voted to an abuse of the postal depart xnent on account of the above mentioned ruling, which, you can see has never been made. , The Chronicle says that Edwin C. | Madden, who has been trying to correct some of the abuses of the second-class- mail-matter privileges, has been un­ mercifully abused by scores of papers of Rap's Broadside ilk; but he has kept on doing his duty; and this looks to us very much like a conspiracy to make trouble for the postal department. The postal card which the Chronicle received was forwarded to Washington, and the matter is being investigated by the postal authorities, and it is very . probable that the "National Publishers Mfeireau" will hear from it in no uncer­ tain manner. r'.J* ' ' T A Card. We, the undersigned, do hereby agree to refund the money on a 50 cent bottle of Green's Warranted Syrup of Tar if it fails to cure your cough or cold. We also guarantee a 25 cent bottle to prove satisfactory or money refunded. G. W. BESLEY AND JULIA A. STOTY. May 21. -i- A* Uffljr Tie. Dupre*, the great but 11! favored French t«jnor, was once walking from the Grand Opera House In Paris with the baritone Baroilhet, who was not an •Apollo either. They happened to meet Perrot, the dancer, a man of very great ability, but short and thin and so ugly that a manager once said he could nev- <0* engage Perrot unless for the Jardln des Plantes (zoological gardens), as he engaged no monkeys. Perrot told them the story, and, when Duprez laughed at him, Perrot said: 1 "Why, surely you need not laugh. If I am ugly, I am certainly not so ugly as either of you." "You monkey," said Duprez, "this dif­ ference shall soon be settled." And, see­ ing a stranger pass who appeared to be a gentleman, "Monsieur," said he, "will you be so good as to arbitrate in a little difference of opinion between us';'* "With pleasure," said the stranger, "if I can." "Well," said Duprez, "just look^ at us and say whom you consider to be the ? agliest of the three." v The gentleman looked for some time jtrom\ one to the other and then said: ^ '•Gentlemen, I give it up. I cannot pos- felbly decide," and went away roaring With laughter. • ' :' WAnCOKDA. : . School opened Monday after • a t*o weeks'vacation., Clyde Goiding spent Saturday and Sunday in Chicago.

Whether the newcomei approaches along the bluffs and ravines of the north or through the swamps and marshes of the south or over the wide stretching prairies of the west the dun trappings of the great horror show from afar. As he rattles along through perky suburban settlements or honest truck farms or half dried swales and disheveled swamps the horror grows. Across the wide fields--gay with this year's flowers or somber with last year's weeds--separating the raw hud­ dles of workers' cottages, tangles of telegraph poles and of trolley wires, lead on the eye toward ugly, shape­ less hulks looming above the dingy horizon--foundries, elevators, machine shops, breweries, factories, icehouses- detached notes that preclude the great discord to come. Then avenues of tracks, shut in by the shameless backs of things and spanned by grimy via­ ducts; arrays of mean streets doggedly curtained against the sun and resolute­ ly fighting off the sweet country airs. The heart sinks, the stomach re­ volts as, through dirt, dust, grime, soot, smoke and cinders the trembling neo­ phyte bumps and jars along toward the besmirched shrine of the two faced goddess of Bustle and Slouch.--Henry B. Fuller In Outlook. Value of Freih Alp. Sleeping in the open air has passed J life limit of a fad and assumed < \ the proportions of a habit It is, more- ./ J!.

It Is a Absurd Fashions. Some of the fashions in France dur­ ing the reign of Queen Marie were ex­ ceedingly absurd, particularly hair- dressing and hats, which were trim­ med with such an extravagant wealth of feathers that the coaches had to have their seats lowered. According to Mme. Cauipan, "mothers and hus­ bands murmured, and the general ru­ mor was that the queen would ruin the French ladies." One day I^uis XVI. decided to for­ bid the court In a body to follow the royal hunt In coaches. In order to be freer be wished only to permit real sportsmen to attend. The noble la dies Immediately rebelled, and the Princess of Monaco criticised the deci­ sion by means of her headdress, upon which arose a miniature royal coach, followed by two gentlemen on foot In gaiters. On the left of this was dis­ played a cypress garnished with black tears, the large roots being formed of crape. More absurd still was the halrdre&s- lng of the mother of Louis Philippe, upon whose head every one could ad­ mire her son, the Due de Beaujolals, REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS.

I gave her Chamberlain's Cough Remedy according to directions and in two days she was well and able to go to school. I have used this remedy in my family for the past seven years and have never known it to fail," says James Prender- grast, merchant, Anliato Bay, Jamaica, West India Islands. The pains in the chest indicated an approaching attack of pneumonia, which in this instance was undoubtedly warded off by Cham­ berlain's Cough Remedy. It counter­ acts any tendency of a cold toward pneumonia. For sale by Julia A. Story and G. W. Besley. Savings Bank.

It Is still a traditiou that the people of Manchester, England, should gibe at Liverpool with the proverb, "A Man­ chester man, a Liverpool gentleman," but. It is said, classification is uot so strongly marked in Lancashire as ill the'old days. When stagecoaches were' running, a guard was once asked, "Who has tha' getten Inside, Billy?" Billy consulted his list and replied, "A gentlemon fra Liverpool, a mon fra Manchester, a chap fra Owdham and a fellow fra Wlgan." She Remembered.
