At a meeting oiNthe Executive com mittee of: the National Editorial As sociation, held in St. Louis, Mo., the following resolutions were reported hythe Postal Laws Committee, and. were unanimously adopted : Whereas,, lt is for the benefit of the government that^intelligence with regard to all public 'affairs, and all .other-matters affecting the welfare :of the people^should be made to pene trate ;tbe/:: whole 1 mass . of - the people (?nd to reach every individual, and : Whereas, This can. best be accom plished through.a free and.indepen dent newspaper and .press;'and Whereas, Newspapers and periodi cals are'of a-'character ~to be handled rather as express than as first-class mail " matter^" and can be so handled with little added ccst in : connection .with- other*- postal;-matter in: general, and'no added cost at all . on rural routes; and . x - Whereas, -The present postal laws and rates haye-?rov?d-^entirely satis factory to the publishers on one hand and the people served, and who, as citizens, constitute the Government; and >: Whereas, There, does not now .exist any real deficit in the United^^tates Postal Service, if tbie ^ departments ano! officesofGo^rnnient'are properly charged '-foiT^postal ^service 'rendered; Jjjlt^nere is"an actual profit used.by the .Government" m the , payment for the transportation and handling of its :own - mail, matter. ^Therefore .be it . ;.;l^Besolyed-, S^i^we^^emH^^?the, : Executiye Committee ;?f. the" National.

After, years cf experiment a new scien tific remedy has been found that not only relieves, but absolutely cures Rheumatism and kindred diseases, to stay cured. Rheu matism is caused by an excess of poisonous acids in the blood. The new discovery Rheumacide. though purely vegetable, and acting through nature's channels, neutral izes these acids and sweeps all poisons and harmful germs out of the blood. At the same time it tones up the stomach and regulates the liver'.and kidneys. Rheumacide, therefore, cures the disease permanently" because it removes the cause. It has cured hundreds of cases after the most noted doctors and hospitals have failed. Rheumacide cured James -Wilkes, of Dillon, S. C., after he had been held in bed by rheumatism for three years and his feet were drawn, up almost to his back. This is only one of the many marvelous cures Rheumacide has already performed. -Rheumacide is curing many cases of Rheu matism, Sciatica, lumbago, gout, kidney trouble, indigestion and constipation, right in this community today. .Because it has cured BO many others we .believe it will cure you. All the leading druggists in this place sell and recommend Rheumacide. ? Short Month. "John, I'm going to have mother visit us next month." "Why didn't you have her in February?"
