' SCOTT'S 'EMULSION
We don't put Scott's Emul
sion in the class of advertised
cure-alls; it doesn't belong
there. We hardly like j:o use
the word "cure'' at all, but we
are bound to say that it can be
used for a great many troubles
with great satisfaction. Its
special function is to repair
the waste of the body when
the ordinary food does not
nourish, and this means that
it is useful in many cases
which are indicated by wast
ing. We'll aend you a sample free.

VILLAOE MAIL SER-
VIOE.
Tho largest nggrogation of govern
ment employes is found in tho ranks of
postmasters of tho fourth class of
fices hat is, ofilcos paying salaries of
loss than $1000 por annum. Thoro aro
70,000 of them, a greater ,army than
that cnrollod in tho regular military
sorvico of tho United States.
On theso postmasters, constituting
tho primary department, so to spenk,
of that vast educational institution
called tho poital system, much of its
efllcloncy depends. Anything which
concerns thorn is, thoroforo, of practic
al importance not ouly to tho rural
communities and small towns where
they do their work, but to tho business
nnd professional men and all tho people
of our largo citlos.
Those servants of tho Government
have claims to consideration. Somo of
the demands put forward In tholr nnmo
lire extravagant, but others aro, in the
Sentry's opinion, worthy the attention
of all thoso bcllovers In postnl roform
who rcnlizo that any genulno Improve
ment must begin nt tho fountain head.
Tlio two-fold appoal of theso post
masters Is for a moro pormnnont touuro
of ofllco nud n more adoquato compen
sation for services porformed.
Under tho prosont system, a post
master of this class Is commissioned to
hold ofllco " during tho plensuro of tho
Postmnater-aouerjil." This tonuro may
last ono month or ten yeurs, boing
govomed entirely by tho oxigencles of
local politics. Since appointments are
mado almost wholly upon tho recom
mendation of Congressmen of tho dom-
l..n..t .nwt am .1 tmliflnni rtmtimittAfifl I
mum. jmiij, ,.u....v... v I mail
orten appoiniou posi-iiiasicrn, grcuwy
to the damago of tho service. An os
tonslon of tho civil servlco rules to
cover theso positions, would Involvo no
dltllcult probloms nnd would bondfit
tho public as well us tho post-masters.
Tho request for additional compensa
tion is founded on nn equally roason
nblo basis, as to ninny of tho Incum
bents of thoso positions. Postmasters
receiving from $15 to $25 a month nro
obliged by tho postal regulations or
by local custom to keep "opon shop"
from 5 0, in. to 8 p. m., a day's work
manifestly too strenuous for tho' pay
Involved. No allowance Is mndo to
them for rent, fuel, stationery or othor
expenses Incident to their ofllcial dut
ies. Thero Is nlso just complaint ns to tho
Insufficient pay allowed for Issuing
money orders. Tho feo Is throe cents
for wich order, which covers tho entire
duty of helping tho purchasor fill out
his application, writing out the order
nnd "advloo" to paying postmaster,
handling tho money, prepnrlng all tho
complicated reports required by tho
Department and tho accounting ofllco
nnd remitting the -surplus funds to tho
doslgnated place of depos.lt. An able
bodied man enu otirn more money saw
ing cord wood thnn by doing this work
for tho pay now granted by the law.
Thoso postmustors must givo bonds
for tho faithful performance of duty,
keep voluminous records of all ordqrs
Issued and paid, and carefully preserve
nil flies for a period of four years.
Three cents being tho minimum tea
charged by tho government to patrons
for orders loss than $2.50 each in
amount, has bono arbitrarily fixed, as
tho compensation of issuing postmas
ters. By the Introduction of tho post
oheek tho number of suoh small orders
Issued (uow nearly 85,000,000 per an
num) would bo greatly rdlueed-. Thus
movement for increasing the amount
paid to postmasters would be appre
ciably expedited.

$100 a pear, twenty thousand recoivo
less thnn $."30 a year. Theso last re
coivo tho entiro valuo of all stamps
nfllxod to mall mntter leaving their of
fices. This compensation has beon regarded
as being all that tho government could
nfTord, nnd If that principlo wero os-
tnhlishcd in nil other branches of tho
servlco there could bo no com
plaint, but there aro innumerable stnr
routes which cost far moro thnn tho
entire receipts for postage on nil mat
tter carried by them. There aro nu
morons othor unprofitable postal fea
tures, and it seems hnrd that tho moSt
poorly paid class of postmasters should
alone bo held down to tho basis of ac
tual rovenue.
If tho postnl business woro n prlvato
business institution, it would not ox
tend boyoud tho bound whero it could
bo made profitable. Tho government
does not got on that principle. It enrrios
tho' mall to many romoto points at a
heavy loss, and if an ofllco Is deemed
necessary for tho development of tho
service, tho man who holds it should bo
reasonably compensated, evou if tho
"earnings" of that ofllco do not equal
tho amount required.
Ilonoaty is tho host policy, and tho
best principle, always aud everywhere.
Doth principle nnd policy demand that
all faithful workers for tho public bo
reasonably paid for their work. Our
