A great deal of interest has beer aroused in the rural districts of thE southern states over the menace tc ' rural free deliverv involved in the evident determination of the post office department to cut out the weaker routes-if they do not make a business showing that meets the new requirements of the department. These new requirements seem to be that the rural route must show a minimum number of pieces of mail handled in a quarter, failing in which, it will be discontinued entirely or consolidated with the nearest rural route. During the past month two rural routes in Upson county, Georgia, which fell short of the test, were con solidated. Since the first of the year quite a number of mail routes in southern states have been either dis continued or consolidated with other routes. The Constitution has for some time been giving editorial attention to this unfortunate turn of affairs in the at titude of the federal postoffice depart ment toward the non-self-supporting rural routes of the south, and our ef forts to call public attention, and the attention of the people's represen tatives in congress, to a condition that actually threatens southern pro gress and development, have met with nyost gratifying response. The rural routes of the south are bestirring themselves to improve the showing they must make to the department, and our representatives in congress are doing everything possible for them at that end of the line. We have received many letters from sena tors and representatives in congress, testifying to their vigilant interest in the subject. Congressman Adamson, of Georgia, gives the benefit of some suggestions that are well worth publication in this connection. Among other things he says: The older and more populous parts of the country were first supplied, and had been running for years, be fore we received attention, thus hav- i ing time to build up business and t show satisfactory results when atten tion began to be given to that subject. t But, strange to 2say, when the de- r partment began -to act under the n aconomy spasm, it began by inspect- k .ng the routes last established in our part of 'the coi*ntry, putting the e Knife to what it called' unprofitable a -outes before they had time or oppor- s] ;unity to demonstrate their utility. f trange inspectors go into a country o n which they know nothing and under u heir instructions to promote. economy ir mnder their instructions cut and slash Es imong weak routes without refer- a nee to past opportunities or future a >rospects. E The fourth assistant postinaster fa -eneral' has been very donsiderate 12 r'hen appealed to in such cases, b>ut oi e has clearly indicated his views as t o what routes should do, and the eople should heed his views on the st aibject, for whether right or wrong, m hey will sooner or later be enforced. tu row they have the remedy in their T] vn hands, let them quit asking for nc ew routes and changes in routes et util all those now in existenee show so ich satisfactory resulfs as will in- to ire them against discontinuance. It at easy for each family living nearer hi a route' than to a postoffice to put m: > an approved box on that route. No un tinily can do a wiser or more prof- shi able thing than to take one or two ho awspapers. There are friends, rel- be 'ives and business concerns. with mi hiom some members of every family uld interchange letters. All these ings would improve and elevate the, ople, while insuring satisfactory ~siness for the routes. There is much truth in this, and to Ar. act too sevei'e a test (In the new - .d necessarily weak routes of the 1,. ith before they are given time and Ar. fair chance to prove their capacity r growth and eventual self-support Ar. tacks of sectional discrimination -- d unfairness. At any rate, that v -w of it is taken by many of the Ar. trons of these threatened southern Ar. ites. r All friends of rural free delivery uld rally to the support of the Ar. tern at this critical juncture. The Ar. ites already established should be en a chance for their lives, even if 3 has to be done at the expense of ablishing new routes. _____ ____ ____ArC a New Idea Woman's Magazine. Zhe New Idea Woman 's M1agazine B April contains several articles of rest to women who are engag~ed in ivities outside of the home. A se- Il on ''The Evolution of Our Wo- B SCitizens'' is begun in this num- EAST by an account of the arrival of Ne. ; nen emigrants at Ellis Island in - e York harbor. Some realistic 3 'm tographs are shown. ''The Mak-. of Pottery'' by Delia Austrian. of the successful women who have followed this delightful hand !craft in this country. "Establishin Oneself in Business" takes a rapi survey of a number of enterprises i which women may become their ow mistresses, such as millinery, laur dries, girls' schools, insurance an real estate. "Furnishing Rooms i: Small Flats" and "Some Californi Homes" will give artistic ideas an suggestions to people in the act o: building or furnishing homes. Thi dramatic "Clive Rayner'r series o: stories is continued in the account o "The Closed House;" a new shor serial, "The House on the Ridge," b3 A. T. Curtis, is begun, and a short story "Nothing Useless Is," shows ir its course that a good knowledge ol housekeeping is often a surer source pf happiness than much artistic tal ent. Some very pretty verse is in eluded in this number, such as "The Consolation of Easter" by Susie M. Best and "Susan" by Grace Stone Field. There is an article,on what is available for April bridal dresses and also one on "The Lines of the New Spring Hats."' "Making Shirt waist Sleeves'" is the subject of a dressmaking article, "Breakfast Cakes" are discussed in the house keeping department. "Children's Easter Parties'" receive ingenious at tention, "A Plea for Fresh Air for the Baby," that ever timely subject, is treated by Margaret Hall, "A Little Girl's Vegetable Garden" by Madeline Reilly, and "The Value of Deep Breathing" by Dr. Maud Glas gow.

The use of the quills in orna 1entations by our Indians is well nown, robes, garments, moccasins, 'ouches, weapon cases, baskets and verything else being 'ornamented pith them by the squaws with great kill and often with truly artistic ef set; but, as usual, the earliest meth-| ds and patterns, when the Indians sed their own delicate dyes and sew ig threads were better than are ~en 'in these days of aniline colors nd crude imitations' of the white an 's art. The longer quills of the uropean porcupine are turned into mncy penholders, and in India and alaya they weave little baskets, etc., t of them, which are often as pret as they are strange. Reviewing his .narrog life, the rongest impression. left upon one's ind seems to be that of the crea re 's sluggishness and stupidity. 1ese are perhaps concomitants, if ~ t consequences, of its strictly veg arian life, in which its tastes are simple that'it rarely seems-to have make the least exertion for food any season of the year, and to its . ~hly protected condition, which ikes it careless of danger, and hence vigilant and steadily inclined to iggishness of mind as well as of dy.

"American fathers are the most af. f fectionate in the world," said a trav. e eled Englishman the other. day.

He was a bronzed and sturdy fellow, and he held the pink and white mite very tenderly. * He was not in the least embarrassed. He had one muscular finger playing about the child's mouth, and whenever the pink gums snapped at it he looked as proud as a prince and beamed all over his honest face. Now, you'd never see a sight like that in my country. I shouldn't mind standing godfather every day to children of such fathers." Quite The Thing. Brooklyn Eagle.
