It's a Top Notch Doer.

The world crowns its doers.
That's why tho American people
have crowned Dr. King's New

Lung remedies. Every atom is a
health force. It kills germs, and
colds and la grippe vanish. It
heals cough-racked membranes
and coughing stops. Sore, in
flamed bronchial tubes and lungs
are cured and hemorrhagescease.

Growth of Rural Delivery.
The relief which rural free de
livery has brought to those farm
ers now in the enj jyment of that
valuable privilege cannot easily
be overestimated. It not merely
saves him the expense and time
of frequent trips to the postof
face town, but koeps him in touch
with the world, when he has no
leisure or opportunity to leave
his farm. It is a great conven
ience, and tho demand for it
mikes it grow steadily. Thirteen
years ago the experiment of free
delivery of mail began with five
routes iu one of the border States.
There are now 40,'Jl'J routes, with
nearly as many carriers, serving
40,000,000 patrons daily, and Un
cle Sam ha spent for service, up
to date, not less than $170,000,.

Higher Prices for Shoes.
From so-good an authority as
the Boot and Shoe Recorder, we
lea.'u that despite the fact that
the manufacturers were success
ful in their campaign for free
hides at the time the tariff bill
was passed, there will be an in
crease in the price of shoos. This
will be interesting, if not accept
able, uews for the consumer.
The highest price for hides ev
er known is now prevailing in
this country. Cilfskins, which
have practically been on the free
list always, cost more than f-t any
time since the civil war.
The increased cost of calfskin
uppers on a pair of slues will run
from 8 to 12 cents; tho increased
cost of sole leather will add to the
cost of shoes from 6 to 10 cent?,
to say nothiug of the tindiogs, ev
en though there bo no increase
in the cost of labor.
Tho cause for this condition is
attributed to the fact that the de
mand for leather exceeds the de
mand for beef, and we must wait
for a change hero before there
will bo any appreciable decrease
in the c ist of footwear. Hides
are a by p oduct of the beef in
dustry. Therefore, it would be
in utter defiance of economic con
ditions to expect cheaper leather
when the world's demand for
beef for food has not increased as
rapidly as the population, nor as
rapidly as the demand for leath
er. Ultimately the taritT reduc
tions wi'l bring benefits to the
conbumer, but it will take time.
