SUGGESTIONS TO
R. F. D. PATRONS
Members of Eural Carrier Force
Make Suggestions as to How
to Aid Mail .Carrier.
No. 1. See that your box is prop
erly located, firmly erected, and at
the correct height. The box should
be kept in good repair -as provided
by the Postal Laws, and the name
neatly printed on it.
No. 2. Keep in your possession a
supply of stamps. Do not deposit pen
nies for postage as this is a great
hindrance to prompt and efficient
service. You are kindly requested to
be considerate of your carrier and
the service when employing this ir
regular method of dispatching your
mail one minute lost at each box
aggregates more than one hour each
day. Mail early to insure collection
from box.
No. 3. When you place mail in the
-box, be sure to display signal! When
you have no mail for the carrier, be
sure that the signal is not displayed!
No. 4. Arrange all letters placed in
box so that carrier will not have to
leave seat of vehicle to hunt for
them.
No. 5. If you like your carrier and
appreciate his efforts to serve' you
well, and want to do something that
will everlastingly maintain the
courteous smile that he always wants
to have for you, just take a few
spare moments and rake the loose
rocks out of the road near your
place! - ;.
Nbr- fi. -To-patrora desiring mo lot
service: The carriers from this office
are ready! Motor service can be ob
tained just as soon as the patrons
6ee to it that the route traveled is
put in condition to make it practi
cal. A rural route road improvement
day is suggested a sa start in this
direction. Begin to organize to this
end now! Set a day some time in
July or August and have represen
tatives from each district served by
your route meet and discuss plans
for making yours a motor service
route!
In advancing the plan of Postal
Improvement Week it is the desire
of your postmaster to have every
patron report to him directly any
wrong deliveries, delay, and mis
handling of the, mails, in order to
check the errors. ,On the other hand,
a record will be kept of all misdi
rected mail, jBhort paid postage, etc.,
and will be listed as "patron's er
rors." In other words, let's have a
friendly ;contest : between postal em
ployes and the public!
Remember, we are servants of
yours, and feel free at any time to
make suggestion which might im
prove our local service, and u you
have a complaint, feel just as free
to register it as it will be given the
most careful consideration.
Why Suffer from Eheumatism ?
Do you 'know that nine out of
every ten cases of rheumatism are
simply rheumatism of the muscles or
chronic rheumatism, neither of whicn
require 4iny internal treatment? The
pain may be .relieved by applying
Chamberlain's Liniment thus making
sleep and rest possible, and that cer
tainly means a great .deal to any one
afflicted with rheumatism. Weyrich
& Hadraba. .

POSITION AT ROCKWELL CITY
P. E. 0. AND BILLS
HONOR THE NEW
STATE PRESIDENT
Pleasant Picnic Supper at Home ol
Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Bawls in
Honor of Mrs. Baird
From Friday's Dally.
Last evening the beautiful home
of Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Rawls on
Pearl street was the scene of a very
enjoyable gathering of the members
of the P. E. O. society and their
auxiliary organization, the BILLS
composed of the husbands of the la
dies. The event was given by the 16
cal chapter of the P. E. O. in honor
of their new. state president, Mrs.
William Baird, and was an event of
the greatest pleasure to all who wen
fortunate to be present.
On the shady and pleasant lawn
the picnic supper was served and was
a feast that satisfied to the utmost
the inner wants of man and prepar
ed as only the ladies have the art of
doing, and at its close the members
of the party enjoyed a number 'ol
very pleasing toasts, Mrs. E. A.
Wurl, president of Chapter F., Mrs.
E. H. Wescott, Mr. C. A. Rawls, Rev.
H. G. McClusky, Searl Davis, of Mur
ray; Charles E. Hartford, Glenn

each in their turn paying a grac
ious tribute to the splendid work
and ability of the lady that has been
chosen by the state society as its
head. Mrs. Baird in turn responded
with a very appropriate address in
which she expressed her appreciation
of the honor given her and the feel
ing of friendship shown by the
Plattsmouth chapter and. Its auxil
iary in the delightful picnic supper.
At the close a social time was en
joyed before the guests departed for
their homes feeling that it had been
a most successful event in every way.
The Home of the Soul
In olden times, it was believed
tli at .thereat of the soul was the
stomach, most likely for the ' reason
thatva man is never so completely
used up as when his stom?ch is out
of order. For the cure of ordinary
stomach troubles, there is nothing
quite so prompt and satisfactory as
Chamberlain's Tablets. They" streng
then the stomach and enable it to
perform its functions naturally. They
only cost a quarter. Weyrich & Hadraba.

THE !S THE TEST
The Testimony of Plattsmouth Peo
ple Stands the Test.
The test of time is what tells the
tale. The public soon finds out when
misrepresentations are made, and
merit .alone will stand the test of
inie.
Plattsmouth people appreciate true
norit, and many months ago local
itizens publicly' endorsed Doan's
Kidney Pills; they do so still. Would
1 citizen make the statement which
Follows unless convinced that the
'.rticle was. just as represented? Be
ow is testimony such as the suffer
er from kidney ills is looking for.
Edward Martin, machinist, 1409
Vine street. Plattsmouth, says:
"Doan's Kidney Pills are all that
3 claimed of them. Occasionally my
ack gets to aching but it only re
uires a few of Doan's Kidney Pills
o relieve me."
The above statement was given
February 22, 1916, and on May 13,
LS20, Mr. Martin added:
"I know that Doan's Kidney Pills
ra a good remedy after what they
ave done for me. They have never
ailed to do their work in a short
(me. I only use them occasionally
ow as a preventative to keep my
cidneys in a healthy condition."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
imply si: for a kidney remedy get
Joan's Kidney Pills the same that
lr. Martin had. Foster-Milburn Co.,

UNFAVORABLE COMMENTS
From Friday bally.'
One of the residents south of the
city who came in via Lincoln aven
ue yesterday was decidedly pessimis
tic over the condition in which he
found the highway and especially
in the roughness of the avenue and
the crossings that the gentleman
states is enough to wreck any ma
chine that is going at any very high
rate of speed. Another matter that
has also been commented on by those
who reside in that part of the city
or drive over that highway, is that
tre ditch on the east side of the high'
way is gradually claiming a greater
part of the street and making it a
situation that will sooner or later
cause a great deal of trouble for
the city and its people, if anyone is
injured.
While the city has a great many
demands made on it for street work
this is one of the main streets of
the city and one of the avenues that
leads to and from the city and should
be given the care that it should have.
The other two avenues have been
transformed from ' unsightly and
rough streets into beautiful streets,
and it is time that this other aven
ue that lies along the chief industry
of the city the Burlington shops-
should be kept up in as good a shape
as possible until the time that it can
be paved. It is rather a hard time
to push the paving of the street, but
it should be placed in better shape
if possible so that those who desire
to drive over it to reach the city can
do so without the bumping and jolt
ing that the auto drivers complain
of.

Farm Loans!
Recommends Chamberlain's Tablets.!
"Chamberlain's Tablets have been
used by my husband and myself off
and on for the past five years. When
my husband goes away from home he I
always takes a bottle of them along
with him. Whenever I have that
heavy feeling after eating, or feel
dull and played out. I take one or
two of Chamberlain's Tablets and
they fix me up fine," writes Mrs. New
ton Vreeland, Minoa, N. Y. Take
these tablets when troubled with
constipation or indigestion and they
will do you good. Weyrich & Had
raba.
Perhaps you have , a mortgage against your place.
Maybe it is not due yet, but probably have an option
or right to pay the loan in full when you pay the
next interest.
If you are paying more than 6 now, don't wait for
the loan to become due, but see me about a new
loan before the next interest paying date.

The proper cultivation of corn is the prime essen
tial .of the raising of a good crop.
Just now things look favorable for a bumper corn
.crop this year. But the fields must be worked and the
best of machinery is needed.
We are handling the' leading lines of farming im

walking cultivators and two row machines. The prices
are right. '
Do not wait until you are really needing them, but
see us early and be assured of prompt delivery.
