The people of Klamath Falls bave an oppcrtunlty of receiving their mail 3 hoora earlier than at present If they wish it. Do the various clubs and organizations of this oity Intend to remain inaotlve, or will tbe win tbe praise of onr citizens bv doing something towards improv ing oar mall services? The post offloa department baa shown n dispo sition to eooommodaU tha people as soon aa they learned what tnelr wishes were. Klamath county hasn't the only mall line In she United States, and Uncle Sam la not going to order any ohange, as long aa tbe people, by tbelr apparent disinterest edness, appear satisfied with the present ervloe. Postmaster Mardook states that be le ready and willing to endorse any rsoomeadationa or petitions made by the commercial bodies of tbe oity, tending toward tbe Improvement of the service. Un der the oontraat tbe department oan Older the mall contractor to leave Pokegama with the mail Immediately upon its arrival at tbat plaoe. It this waa done the mall would arrive here early in tha morning and the patrons of the oBioe would have all day to answer their correspondence. Tbiajwould also be a great conven ience to the local office. Under tbe schedule the entire mall from Poke gama, Fort Klamath, bonanza, Lake- view and way etattona, eiriving here -;thin a few hours of each other in tbe evening. Tbis necessitates work ing a greater part of tbe night ftrd sometimes, on aooount of the balk of mall It is not possible to get It r'l distributed In time to n a- a up the outgoing mall In the morning. In stead of the outside all laying over at Pokegama, It should be here being distributed during tha day, and there would be only tbe east mail to handle at night.

Neglected Colds ITireateu Life. LFrom the chloago Trlbune.l " 'Don's trifle with a oold ' is good advice for prudent men and women. It may he vital In the case of a cniia. Proper food, good ventilation, and dry, warm olothlng are tha proper safe guards against colds. If they are main tained turouih the changeable weath er of autumn, winter and eprlng, the chances of a surprise from an ordinary oold will be slight. But the ordinary light cold will become severe if neg lected, and a well estaDiienea ripe ooia is to the germs of dintherfa what hon ey is to the bee. - The greeteet menace to child lite at this season of tbs yesr is the neglected oold." Whether it isa child or adult, the cold slight or severe. the very beet treatment that can be adopted Is to give Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It Is safe and sore. The great popularity and Immense sale of this preparation has been attained by its remarkable cures of this ailment. A cold never results In pneumonia when it is given. Eor sale by Charles Strang.

KEEP TMg LIVER CLEAN.; Beat Overweelc It ssl Give It a steiet Oaee la Awhile. A man at common sense and a doe tar at that said: "The liver Is misun derstood sud undereetlmated In Ita functione. If it uuu be kept clean and activo there is ,uo reason why , we Should ever be ill a day, and we should live to be ISO or 300 years old. It la not necessary to rip this organ all to pieces with ten grains of calomel to get it stirred up. The beet thing to do Is to shut off your food supply for two or three days, drop your whisky and claret, your tea aud coffee, and give your liver a cuauoe to rest. Tbis should be dope oace a mouth." It la well kuotvu, of course, that In olden times rite liver wae supposed to be tbe seat of the affections. Friends when they met In tbe morning did not salute each oilier with "How'a your beallhr but wllD "How s your llverr Men take horseback exercise principal ly for their livers. A good shaking at every morulug drives away the clrrho tlcbillary encroaebment. It Is an error to Bjtaume tbat whisky uloue produces cirrhosis. Overfeeding Is moro oftei the cause. If tbe digestive organs would organise a union and work only eight hours a day all of us would be healthy and long lived. Ttie trouble Is we require the liver, stomach, bowels, heart, brain, muscles, nerves, kldueys, spleen, etc., to work all the time and overtime. Wrong. Give them a rest- New York Pness. MINING FOR RUBIES. The Primitive Methods That Are Still la L'ee la Barasa. The system practiced for obtaining rubies In tbo luluiug districts in liur ma Is of the moit prunltivo descrip tion, says the Searchlight The mining shafts are simply holes about two feet square sunk to a depth varying up to fifty or sixty feet The shoring up of the walls of tbe abaft is most crude. tbe sides being supported by posts at the corners and brunches of small trees secured carefully against the aisles by means of stout sticks.' Ttw miner carries a tin pot similar In shape to a blunt edged cone on his bead. He sqiints down in one comer and digs between his knees In the op posite corner. Tbe earth, or byon, as tbe ruby bearing earth la called. Is conveyed to tbe top as fast as It Is ex cavated In small buckets let down from above. The apparatus for raising and tower ing tbe buckete Is simple la tbe ea trcme. A Btout bamboo post anawt twenty feet high, called a iiiamiajawie. Is fixed upright In tbo ground at a con venient distance from the pit, tor dwin. and a long, Hiluuor bamboo pivoted horizontally into the upier end of it so aa to project an eighth from the mine and tbe long arm toward the mine. FISHING LINES. The Tear Finest Aaw Thowe Forme From Silkworm Out. Silkworm gut forms the best line tor fishing purposes, partly on account of Its great tenacity and portly because it is so transparent Every year a suf ficient number of Spanish silkworm grubs are selected for this purpose. Aft er they have eaten enough mulberry leaves and before they begin to spin they are thrown Into vinegar for sev eral hours. Each insect Is killed, and the substance which tbe grub In ths natural course would have spun Into a cocoon Is forcibly drawn from tbe dead worm Into a much thicker and abort er aUken thread. The three lis an then placed in pore water for about four hour and after ward dipped for ten minutes is a ae ration of sort soap. The flue outer akin Is thus looaeneu so that tha work- mas can rexnawa it with has bands.

Aad by tha sauna sagn it It tact that tha most useful Isstngs are these who have taken np the first thing that came to band and done the best they could with It These people usual ly find something to tbetr liking in the long run, too, and If this be denied them they have the good sense to learn to like what comes.
