WHY THE HAM IS SO SALT. Packers Compelled to Use the Saline as Preservative. "We are having many complaints about the unusual saltiness of ham, bacon and canned goods this summer," said a butcher, who does a large family trade. "I suppose it is the same everywhere else. Standard goods that we have been able to recommend for years are salt as brine now. The packing houses tell us that it is because they are no longer permitted to use the preservatives that got such a raking over the coals after the Spanish war. They simply must pile on the salt or their hams and bacon won't keep. The packers will be obliged to find some way out of the difficulty, or they will have to go out of business altogether. In the trade we are noticing the falling off in orders from hotels and restaurants. No man wants a rasher of bacon or a slice of ham for breakfast if it is going to send him around with a raging thirst all day." DECEMBER.

BRISTOW 8 ANNUAL REPORT LARGELY DEVOTED TO ITs MORE PAY FOR THE RURAL CARRIERS He Would Raise Maximum to $750 a Year—Would Then Cut Off Privil- ege of Carrying Express Matter— How Rural Free Delivery Has Been Extended in Seven Years. WASHINGTON. — (Special.) The annual report of Fourth Assistant Postmaster General Bristow for the fiscal year ended June 30, last, makes the following recommendations : ‘An apropriation to construct inspect- ors’ lookouts in postoftices wherever necessary in the opinion of the post- master general. ‘That the interstate commerce law be amended so as to prohibit common carriers from aiding and abetting in the green goods, lottery or any other wheme carried on partly by mail and Partly by common carriers, in viola- tion of the postal laws. ‘That epecial agents and postoffice Inspectors be hereafter designated rural agents. ‘That the provision that rural car- riers shall not be prohibited from do- ing an express package business be repealed. ‘That the maximum pay of a rural earrier be increased to $750 per an- hum for a route of twenty-five miles or more in length, and the enactment of a law requiring assistant postmas- ters, cashiers and other employes to icone: eneteann direct and ing postmasters responible under Ywetr own bond. ‘The work of the bureau has been greatly increased by the assignment fe it of the division of free delivery. The free delivery is expanding more rapidly than any other branch of the pada! service. Its growth during the fiscal year has been greater than at saz other time since free delivery was esfablished. It preents a great many problems for careful consideration, as the expenditures, when once. author: Het. become practically permanent. wuse free delivery. after being es: tablishé, cannot be easily withdrawn. The estimated expenditure for the fis cal year beginning July 1. 1904, for both city and rural free delivery, will aggregate abont $47,000,000, an amount equal to that expended for the maintenance of the entire postal rervice in the year 1884. ‘There were 2,707 postoffices estab- Ushed during the year, a decrease as ¢ompared with the previous year of aa. ‘There were 4,462 postoftices discon: tinued during the year, being 403 more than during the preceding year. The principal use for the large in- creare in the number of postoffices @iscbntinued has been the extension of the rural free delivery service. On June, 1993, at the close of the ce there were 74.169 post ices, divided as follows: First @lass, 242; second class, 1.107; third ase, 3.690; fourth class, 69.130.

At the close. of the fiecal year there were 1,032 free delivery offices. ‘There wore during the year 652 sep. arations of carriers from the service for the reasons given below: For intoxication ................. 65 For arrest for violation of postal laws and regulations............ 2% For grose violation of postel laws and regulations .......eee0++0+-101 For phrsical disabilities .......... 11 By resienations ........c0.000+++ 28 Piyideatlig, cc-c-scdoccr-ctoy so 18 paper ont eet ee Yak) | dh eee WANTS PRIVATES PROTECTED.

Aristocratic Families. ROME—Speeial.) Going through the financial situation of the Vatican as lett by Pope Leo, the present pope found that several millions had been employed in-restoring the private patrimonies of a number of aristo- cratic families, the members of which had remained faithful to the holy xee, principally those of the Princess Boncampagni and Borghese, but more especially ‘the latter. The historic palace of the latter, built by Pope Paul V. at the beginning of the sev- enteenth century, had fallen into the hands of creditors of the princely house, who rented it as an office to the Grand Orient of the Italian Free Masons, which Pope Leo considered to be desecration. All rumors to the effect that Pope Pius intends to get back this money through the appli- cation of coercive measures are con- sidered at the Vatican as altogether without foundation, because the fam! lies thus subventioned are repaying the money loaned them by yearly in- stallments. elas tale age Mitiacecs: lai: NEW YORK.—(Special.)

Circulation has been established in the foreign flesh and apparently the operation was a success.

A woman who has used Postum Food Coffee since it came upon the market eight years ago knows from experience the necessity of using Pos- tum in place of coffee if one values health and a steady brain. She says: “At the time Postum was first put on the market I was suffer- ing from nervous dyspepsia and my physician had repeatedly told me not to use tea or coffee. Finally I de cided to take his advice and try Pos- tum and got a sample and had it care- fully prepared, finding it delicious to the taste. So I continued its use and Yery soon its beneficial effects con- vinced me of its value, for I got well of my nervousness and dyspepsia. “My husband had been drinking cof- fee all his life until it had affected his nerves terribly. I persuaded him to shift to Postum and it was easy to get him to make the change for the Postum is so delicious. It certainly worked wonders for him. “We soon learned that Postum does not exhilarate or depress and does not stimulate, but steadily and hon- estly strengthens the nerves and the stomach. To make a long story short our entire family have now used Pos- tum for eight years with completely satisfying results as shown in our fine condition of health, and we have noticed a rather unexpected improve- ment in brain and nerve power.” Name given by Postum Co,, Battle Creek, Mich, Increased brain and herve power ab ways follow the use of Postum in Place of coffee, sometimes in a very marked manner, ‘Look in each package for a copy of the famous \ittle book, “The Road te Wellvilie” HAPPY WOMEN.

Advantage of College Training. “I dunno what my boy Josh would have done without his college educa- tion,” said Farmer Corntossel. —“In- deed!” “Yes. While he was home he got on the same side of a fence with bull, and mother an’ me was power- ful thankful that he was a champion runner and jumper.” * Why, Indeed! Scolding is easy.

Dr. Limes, the at- tending physician, says: “Scarlet Fever of a very malignant type brought this child very near to death and when the fever left him he was semi-paralyzed in the right leg and right arm. He also lost hearing im his right ear, and his mind was much affected. “His parents tried another treat- ment for a time and when I was re called I found that he was having spells very. like Epilepsy and was very bad and gradually growing worse. 1 advised the use of Dodd's Kidney Pills and in a short time the child began to tmprove. Inside of a week the nerv- pus spasms or epileptic seizures teased altogether.” Mr. and Mrs. McBride have made « sworn statement of the facts and Dr. Jesse L. Limes has added his sworn statement saying that Dodd’s Kidney Pills and nothing else cured the fits. No, Cordelia, dont’ think for = min- ste that because every man nas bis price, he gets it.
