TO TEACH MAIL SERVICE. Foci master* to Aaalit School Bacrdi in InatructlDff Pupils. Postmaster General Meyer has ordered the postmasters of the country to confer with their local school authorities as to the practicability and desirability of delivering short talks on the postal ser vice to school children. The design is to inform the pupils of the scope of its operations, the methods of deliveiing the mails, classification of mail, and the registry and money order system. Incidentally the lectures are to make known planB for betterment, such as the establishment of postal savings banks and the extension of the parcel post. Wherever it may be impracticable for postmasters to lecture they are to fur nish information to school supervisors to eqnip the regular teachers. It is the postmaster general's expecta tion that the school children will be useful to the postal service in seeing that letters are properly and plainly ad­ dressed. That there is a necessity for action of the kind is shown by the vol nine of business transacted by the dead letter office. Last year 1.31,145,172 pieces of mail were sent there because the postoflices Were unable to read the addresses. CAN PUBLISH WINNERS Of Card When Gnt-itta !><» Not Pay For Privilege «f Playing.

Mr. Watrous states that the sec­ tion which refers to the illegality of printing prize winners, etc., does not apply to the ordinary card party where the hostess gives the prize and the guests do not pay for the privilege of playing. This statement shonld cause a great sigh of relief because there are many hostesses who like to publish the list of their friends that won prizes. In the case of public card parties, however, where an admission is charged, the ruling applies. Duties ou Farmers' Product*).

There is a disease prevailing in this country most dangerous because so decep- **' 11 *"'* tive. Many sudden deaths are caused by it--heart dis­ ease, pneumonia, heart failure or apoplexy are often the result of kid­ ney disease. If kidney trouble is ^ allowed to advance the kidney--poison­ ed blood will at­ tack the vital organs, causing catarrh of the bladder, or the kidneys themselves break down and waste away cell by cell. Bladder troubles almost always result from a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is obtained quickest by a proper treatment of the kidneys. If you are feel­ ing badly you can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder reined}-, t It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, and over­ comes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often through' the day, aud to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. Swamp-Root is pleasant to take aud is sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and one-dollar size bottles. You may have a sample bottle of this wonderful new dis­ covery and a book that tells all about it, both sent free by mail. Address. I)r. Kil­ mer & Co., Binghaniton, N. Y.
