A good many farmers had to plant their cotton the second time and of course were anxiously awaiting this copious shower to germinate the seed. Last Sunday Rev J L Mullinix, pastor of the Methodist church,spoke to an unusually large attendance at service. He read from the discipline used by this denomination certain sections that are particularly applicable to the male body of this membership, or in fact any citizen who is eligible to vote. This section referred to the dispensary law. There is a petition being carried around asking for another election looking to the re-establish ment of a dispensary in this county. Mr Mullinix spoke in no uncertain terms of the weak-kneed persons who lack the ^ moral courage to endeavor to nip this first step in the bud.

"Uncle Sam" has been very busiiness-like in distributing daily reading matter, letters and parcels to his people in this section up to the present, but we hope for still better service with the introduction of the rural delivery system. WES. Postmater*s Reslanatlon Asked. Washington, May 19:?The first assistant Postmaster General has called for the resignation of Mrs Appelt as postmistress at Manning, because the inspector's report shows that she is not attending to the office personally. This is carrying out the policy recently announced by the Postmaster General, that postmasters must give their personal attention to the business of their offices. It is stated that the resignation of Mrs Appelt will be accepted, if tendered immediately. Fnr snmp little time thp nnstnf fice department has been conducting quiet investigations all over the country to see if postmasters are paying the proper personal attention to their work, and it is likely that there will be a good many other cases similar to that at Manning. & . * ?

Summarizing in a paragraph some of the advantages of good roads, a set of resolutions adopted by an Illinois gooc roads association says: "Improved roads mean better schools and larger attendance, better health and quicker transportation, better farms and more cultivated land,better crops and cheaper transportation, better economii conditions and more producers, bettc. social conditions and less isolation, Detter cnurcn at tendance and better citizens, better postal service and closer friends,better business and more consumers, better industries and more employment, a better State and better nation." These are all things quite worth while. Good roads cost money, but the returns compensate for the expenditure. for the Veok and Nervous.
