Rural Free Delivery Notes
Because they objected to a negro car
rier and took down their muil boxes
residents along rural delivery route
No. 2. out of Cerulean. Ky., have been
deprived of the sen-Ice, says a Louis
ville dispatch to tiie New York Trib
une. As a result farmers for miles are
calling at Cerulean for mall, and W.
L. George, the uegro carrier, is out of
a Job. Protests were sent to Wash
ington when George was first appoint
ed last April. No heed was paid to
them. White patrons along the route
then took down their boxes. As the
role forbid delivery except where
boxes are up, the negro carrier soon
had a sinecure. The mail fell off so
that Washington has discontinued the
route because of "lack of patronage."
Mrs. Hazclbaker, mail carrier on
route No. 3 in Linn county, Kan., was
kindly remembered New Year's day
by the patrons of that line, says the
I'leasanton (Kan.) Herald. She serve
fifteen farmers with mall, and each one
presented her with a bushel of corn
with which to feed her horses. The
gift was very acceptable and worthily
bestowed. Mrs. Hazelbaker, who Is
one of the most energetic, hardwork
ing aud Industrious women In Linn
county and the only lady mall carrier
In eastern Kansas, appreciates, the
kindness of her patrons, aud as In the
past, wet or dry, hot or cold, sunshine
or storm, she will continue to serve
them. She never misses a day and
comes In promptly on time. All honor
and credit to Mrs. Ilazelbaker.
Postofflce Inspectors Schaffer and
Young, after making a tour of Niagara

of Lockport, N. Y., the other day and
Informed hira that the department
would no longer endure the soap boxes,
nail kegs, cigar boxes, old teakettles,
etc., being used by farmers as rural

Tribune. They declared that In two

cles for mall hens had made tbelr

Farm Journal:

Women Who Wear "WelL
It Is astonishing how great a change a
few years of married life often sake In
the appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from a
peach which Is rudely handled. The
matron Is only a dim shadow, a faint echo
of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change. Ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
of its freshness and - the form of Its
fairness. '
