If they had been, there would not have been half the snow on the roads. While Miss Elsie Oltjenbruns was driving to school in Loup City last Wednesday, her horse pulled a little to one side of the road, tipping the buggy over, throwing her out and a load of turnips also into the snow. The horse did not seem to mind it, Miss Elsie was unharmed, and with the aid of the carrier was soon on her way again. W. O. Brown tells the carrier that he took a can of cream to the cream ery one day last week and the road was so rough the cream was churned into butter. We believe he told the truth, for the same day we lost two wheels from the mall wagon and sprung the front axle. We can prove this by Otto Henning, who saw the accident and helped us to recover the wheels. LETTER TO PATRONS OR RURAL ROUTES The past three weeks have been trying times for the carriers on rural routes to make the rounds, and they have suffered many hardships, which the department does not require them to do. In some cases they have had assist ance from the patrons, but in many cases the patrons have shamefully neglected to do their duty. It is not the duty of a mail carrier to shovel his way through snow banks, take down fences and go through fields, but it is the duty of the patrons and the road overseers to see that the road is kept open, or opened as soon as possible after the storm is over. The department cannot compel patrons or overseers of highway to open the roads, but it can sus pend the mail routes to an inde finite period, and as Postmaster of Loup City, I shall in the future notify the Postoffice department with recommendations that the route be suspended, for any rea sonable failure to open the roads. The cost of carrying the mails is costing the Government enormous sums of money, and the ..patrons, or their overseers should take suf ficient pains'to assist the 'Govern ment in keeping the highways passable. C. F. Beushausen, Postmaster. LOCAL NEWS What do you think of the groundhog b.v this time? At Vic Swanson’s for Friday md Saturday, finest California □ranges at 50c per peck.

I_ Better Ten Thousand Sneer*. Better to staLd 10.000 sneers than one abiding pang such as time could not abolish of bitter self reproach.— De Quincy. Eighteen Years In Cold Storsge. It is an axiom of good cooking that beef should be well bung before bet:: sent to the chef, but the owners of a certain bind-quarter which waa ex hibited at Smithfleld market In Lon don recently have surely gene to rath er extreme lengths in this matter, for they have kept It in cold storage for 18 years. When it was taken "off the ice." so to speak, and looked at by ex perts armed with nothing more formidable than magnifying glasses, they unanimously reported it was still sweet and sound, and apparently lacking but little In nutritive quali ties A piece was cut off and sent to the analysts so that they might ascertain by scientific methods exact ly what chemical changes, If any. it had undergone. The now famous joint was shipped lu 1896, and sold to a firm of military contractors at Malta, who retained it In their cold store there for experimental purposes until th * government tbok-eYer-'their-warefaou-* some months' wgo, wtre* the quart** was sent on to London.
