Haiti wanger at Pelion desires to call attention to the practice of some patrons of rural delivery of placing loose coins in their boxes each time they desire to dispatch letters instead of supplying themselves with postage in advance of their needs. This practice imposes undue hardship on rural carriers in removing loose coins from boxes and delays them on the service of their routes. The postmaster, therefore, urgently requests that patrons of rural delivery provide themselves and keep on hand a supply of stamps consistent with and in advance of their needs. It is also very desirable that rural patrons place in their mail boxes small detachable cups of wood or tin in which to place coins, when neces| sary, in purchasing supplies of stamps. Legislature Will Not Adjourn Until March, Second. By a small majority the house on Thursday passed the Blease resolution, which was adopted in the upper house, fixing March 2nd, instead of Feb. 22nd, as the date of adjournment. . This means that the legislators will have to serve for quite a while without pay, as the constitutional forty days expire Feb. 22nd, and after that time only the president of the senate and speaker of the house can draw per diem.

The Charleston News and Courier publishes the following- story: "A few mornings ago there appeared at police headquarters an elderly lady. She was dressed in black and not only was her hair white, bather face and figure showed the passing of years and much trouble. "Nervously taking a five-dollar bill out of an eld pocketbook, she handed it to the officer of the day with a statement that she had come to pay her son's fine. The officer told her "U r> A Ua r.-n event f f\ noil Knt tiidl iiCl SUil IllSAi IJCt/l OCilv K-^/ jail, p-phc that he would at once sign an order for his release and send to the jail lor him. With a tremor in her voice, she said, "and in j-a-i-l-i" and then alter a few minutes apparently wrapped in deep thought, she turned to the officer, and with a raj* of real, genuine pleasure said that she would save him the trouble by taking the order oyer to the jail herself. As the bent figure departed and with just a faint sign of real pleasure at being respcnsible for her son's release, the kindly officer shook his head and looked out upon the many people passing along King* street as if anxious to change the tenor of his thoughts. ' "The old lady's son had been charged with, and convicted of, being drunk on the street?but, as she had said, she was his mother and he her only son. She could not let him stay in jail, wayward though he had been." Neighborhood Favorite. Mrs. E. D.

It gives quick relief in dyspepsia, liver complaint, kidney derangement, malnutrition, nervousness, weakness and general debility. Its action on the blood, as a thorough purifier makes it especially useful as a spring medicine.

Robert Hatfield, of Ashland, Ky., a relative of the Hatfields of HatfieldMcCoy feud fame, was found with hands and feet tied to a tree on a mountain side a few days ago. He was cut loose and taken, apparently lifeless, to a hospital. He had been left by hi9 enemies, the Wilmots, he says, to die. His feet and arms were so badly frozen that it was necessary to amputate his left arm and several toes. Hatfield is not likely to live, but he swears he will gather his friends to take vengeance on his enemies. Suffering & Dollars Saved. E. S. Loper, of Marilla, N.
