Few of Norfolk's business men fully realize , porlmpn , the extension of pos- HlhllltloH In an advertising way which the rural routes have established , The fanner today reads a dally paper. II Is no longer content with a weekly , llo gets his dally just IIH often and as conveniently an hlK city cousin. Few towns of Norfolk's sl/o have dally pa pers with which to take advantage of that fact. Today The News circulates In the rural dlHtrlcts about Norfolk- within a radius of eight miles just ahout as thoroughly s It does In the city and nearly everybody In town reads The NOWH , Very nearly every farmer liv ing on all of the live rural routes out of Norfolk , reads The News every day where he used to road a weekly news paper. Ho llndn that he likes the mar- kol reports and the local news and the north Nehranka news and the tele graph news , while it Is fresh. Within the past week no less than thirty farm ers who have been added to HID rural service have voluntarily sub- Hcrlbed to The D.itly News. The great advantage in this Is to the merchant and the business man. Norfolk llrms have never bad a meth od of reaching the fanners every day before. Now they can. The man who knows an opportunity will reeolvo ben- elU in dollars and cents from this very fact. , Great department stores find tbnt It pays to ship lienvy catalogues for sev eral hundred miles , onto the rural mutes. The nearer they are , the more it pays. There Is no question , if It Is done systematically , about the resulth from local advertising among the ru ral route people. And they are the people who have money to spend. , MONDAY MENTION. .j E. K. Emory was over frtnu Madison Sunday. F. W. Faulstlck was In the. city from Wlnnetoon. H.

THE RESIDENTS ARE DELIGHTED Carrier Wllllnm Darlington Made Hie First Trip West of Thirteenth This Mornlno Federal Discrimination Has Taken to the Firs. IKioin Momtny'H Dully. ] Today for the llrsl time Norfolk people ple who live west of Thirteenth street received their letters and papers and packages by free delivery , the grey- garbed carrier making his Initial trip Into that territory Mils morning. The change , as announced In these col umns last week , wan brought ahout after more than a year by the fact that It WIIH possible for the carrier on the west Hide to cover bis original route and ( he additional also within the time limit of eight hours a day as Hot apart by the government. For more than a year the residents of the west side have had to walk more than a mile to the postolllce. and to watch , nt the same time , their neighbors receiving bunches of freely delivered mall twice a day. liver since a year ago last June the people on the went side of Thirteenth street have had to walk to town and have boon able to see , just across the street , the postman walking by morning and afternoon. A few of those who live on West Norfolk avenue , that being on the di rect route of the carrier for rural route No. " , have put up rural boxes nnd received their mall that way , once every morning. Hut all of these Inconveniences are today things of the past. They have taken to the tall timber , back to the llrs. lTnclo Sam found , after a good long while , that Ills carrier could just as well take In the west end as not , and still not bo doing duty overtime. And so was It ordered. Currier Darlington baa the added territory to cover. Ho reached the first bouse on bis new ground at about ! lir : > this morning. At almost every home , bo said , be found the people waiting for the mall and they were all delighted with the Improved service. II will take a day or so for the novelty to wear olT. but that will wear off none of the good fortune that there Is to it. SAW BIRD DROWN IN STANDPIPE Two Boys Who Climbed to the Top. Watched a Bluejay Die There. That there are dead birds in the Norfolk standplpo is practically a cer tainty. That there Is ut least one , Is a positive fact. This is known to be true because the dying bird , a blue- jay , was soon ! > > ' two boys who bad climbed to the top , last summer. In conversation with D. C. O'Connor yes terday , thi o two boys said : "Last summer wo climbed to the top of the standplpo. The water was down about fifteen feet. A bluejay was Muttering around on the surface of the water and wejmd no moans of getting it out. . Finally the bird sank to the bottom and drowned. " ' "I imagine that there is something In the theory that dead birds are to be- found at the bottom , " said Mr. O'Coff nor. who has had a siege of typhoid fever at his house. "Wo bad blamed the water at the Grant school , whore there was formerly n well. Hut now we use city water thore. I can see no eason for so much typhbld In a city rt-hero city water is so generally used. t seems to me that thor'o ought to bo i cleaning out of any standplpe'with no screen over It , at least once a year.

PRICE WILL BE PRETTY HIGH Turkeys Must Have Dry , Warm Weather and the Past Season Has Put Them to the Bad Chickens Will do , Though , For Most Tables. Thanksgiving Is comlng. 7uid the turkeys have had little chance. Those that would have been batched , per chance , have been handicapped by the wet weather and the result is , birds on the market are rare. Thanksgiving dinners this year will be served , no doubt. In most cases without any of the turkey that has always been con sidered Indlspensible. Chicken may take the place of turkey. The trouble with the turkeys lias been the wet weather of the .summer. They have refused to be created. They have kept hidden within their egg shells rather than he hutched and reared and sold on the market. Wet weather is always hard on the turkey. The turkey , anyway , IH a bird of line sensibilities It Is nervous and .sensi tive. It needs the best of encourage- MKXICAN Mustang Liniment uurcM 1'roHtblten iitul Chllblntiia.

HEALTH AND EDUCATION GOVERN THE WORLD THE WEAK , SICKLY AND EMACIA TED CAN HOPE FOR BUT LITTLE SUCCESS. BY DR. ORA CALDWELL , CHICAGO. In compiling the statistics of the different races of people of the world , it Is of Interest to note the article of diet , the manner in which it Is taken and the extent of medical attendance as practiced in the clvtltzeil world. It has been demonstrated conclusively that the moat eaters are the strong est , healthiest and the best educated people In the world ; therefore it is reasonable to believe that they are the people who govern the world. As demonstrated by Dr. Caldwell , the American people consume on an aver age of six pounds of meat per week : the English four ; the German , three : the French , two ; and the Italian , one- half. Statistics prove that epidemics of contagions diseases more largely prevail among those people , whose diet partakes of less meat and more fari naceous foods. Good meat Is the most wholesome of all foods to he taken. True , it is not as fattening as the ce reals or farinaceous foods , but it Is more strengthening" nnd contains more blood and nerve producing elements , so necessary to strength and good health. What Is required specially for perfect health Is good digestion , plen ty of outd < x > r exorcise and special care as to hygiene and sill the laws of na ture. Dr. Caldwell is a specialist or many years' experience , and has de- voiod much of her time lo the study of diseases- the stomach , diseases f the brain and diseases of the ner- ( ins system. From conclusive proof t has been demonstrated that n little oed properly served and well dlgest- ? d is far better than a great quantity if an unwholesome character improp erly digested. Dr. Caldwell has been afforded spe cial advantages In studying the char acteristics of the people , their diet , their hobbles and the special condi tions governing medicine as n special- ty. ty.She She has been awarded. In contests with the greatest schools In the world , the highest prize and a number of med als. She h'as been making a specialty of chronic , nervous and surgical dis eases , diseases of the eye , ear , nose , throat , lungs , diseases of women nnd diseases of long standing character. No matter how long such patients have suffered or who has treated them , she never failed to cure these ailments. In over a quarter of a century - tury In the experiment , study and prac tice of her profession In the diseases of men and women , she has cured thousands who have been pronounced helpless by other physicians. People come to her from far and near to re ceive her treatment and her ofllcesnre crowded at the places of her appoint ments and all speak In the highest praise of her treatment. Hy permission wo are pleased to publish a few of some of the cures she made throughout the state of Nebras ka.
