RURAL ROUTE WEU FIGHT JEEP SHOW Some of the Routes Could Not Be Carried Today Because of Storm.
Uncle Sam's rural mail carriers suffered many hardships on account of the snow drifts, while trying to cover their regular routes today. Through much persistence, a few of the -carriers In the country districts managed to struggle around their entire routes, . but some of the men were literally "snowbound," and their patrons were thus practically cut off from the world during the storm. All the rural men were on hand regularly this morning, and at the request of L. A. Handley. superintendent of carriers at the Richmond post office, started out with the avowed Intention of making an effort to cover the entire territory. Not long after tbey had passed the city limits, however, the rural men truck deep drifts of snow, some of these estimated by the carriers as at least five or six feet in depth. Certain wind-swept stretch en of road gave the men chance to make up a little time, but so frequently did they meet big drifts, thst they finally abandoned sections of tbelr routes. Carrier Martin, No. 4, after delivering bis mall at Whitewater and Bethel, encountered a hard time on the Cart road as he was returning from the north. Carrier No. 3, east of the city, met an Impassable ford, which had just been washed out, and abandoning his hope of distributing mail on the other aide of the stream, left the mail with resident near the ford, where other farmers might if possible, call, for it. Up to a late hour this afternoon, some of the snowbound rural men had not been beard from, but the postal authorities expect them all to be in by night. Delivery in the city was not seriously effected by the snow, and local carriers made their regular trips. Delivery was delayed much because of the tie-up on Incoming mails caused by late trains.

Ho Mid it was eczema. He drew a small bone from the ankle about the size of a matrli and otKHit an inch long. The small hole rrcw to about the size of an apple, and the eczema spread to the knee. The doctors revcr could heal the hole In the ankle. The whole foot ran water &U tlie time "My husband and my sons were up night and day wheeling me from one room to another in the hope of giving me some relief. I would fit for hours at a time In front of the fireplace hoping for daybreak. The faln was so intense I was almost crazy. In fact, I would lose my reason for hours at a time. One day a friend of mine dropped In to see me. No more had she glanced at my foot than she exclaimed. 'Mrs. 'inn-ean. why in the world don't you try the Cuticura Kemedlcsl ' Being disgusted with the doctors and their medicines, and not being able to bleep at all, 1 decided to ttive the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment a trial. After using them three days that nicht I slept as sound as a silver dollar for eight long hours. 1 awoke in the morning with lut very little pain, in fact. I thought I was in heaven. Alter using the Cuticura Remedies for three month I was perfectly restored to health, thanks to the Cuticura Koap and Ointment. 1 will be sixty-four years of age m v next birthday, hale and Iieartv at present."

ARREST A FUGITIVE C. A. Brown, formerly of Eaton, who was arrested yesterday in Georgia on the charge of embezzling funds from the Singer Sewing machine branch office at Eaton, of which he was agent, probably will have charges placed against him by George Fox, a prominent local merchant. In December, Brown is said to have made purchases at the Fox store, giving two cheeks, feigned by himself to the amount of about $20. A few days afterward Fox learned that Brown had no funds in the Eaton bank upon which the two chocks were ma.de. About this time Brown left Eaton and it was ascertained that he had embezzled a large sum from the Singer Sewing Machine company. He also left a number of other creditors, it is taid.

MORE ECONOMY . Ill LODGFHMESS Should Be Practiced, K. of P. Meeting Here, Announces in a Resolution.
With the purpose of reducing debts of lodges scattered through the state, as well as paying off the mortgage on 'be Indianapolis temple, the Knights of Pythias, in their district session, held here last evening, at the suggestion of Dr. J. M. Warn pier, unanimously passed a resolution designed to establish a more economical business system. Harry Wade, grand keeper of the tecords and seal, reported to the lodge that the debt on the grand temple at Indianapolis had been reduced $79,000, and that $15,000 more had been applied by the lodge to take up the mortgage on the site. He further pointed out that the finances of the grand lodge were in quite good condition generally. At the conclusion of Wade's talk. Dr. Wampler voiced the sentiment, that if the state affairs were in such good condition, it would be quite wise to reduce the ever increasing per capita tax, and apply some money toward tie paying off of the mortgages on local temples and other small debts through Indiana. Dr. Wampler's suggestion to put a stop to the increase in tax, and at the name time wipe out debt, was enthusiastically received by the knights, and the' following resolution was adopted without a dissenting vote: "Be it resolved by the eleventh district meeting of the Knights of Pythias, assembled in session, February 20, 1912, That it is the sense of this meetink that such economy in the matter of salaries, committee allowances and' 1-rinting, should be practiced in the lusiness affairs of the grand lodge as will bring about a reduction in the per capita tax to forty cents per member; and be it further resolved that a copy of these resolutions be forwarded to the grand keeper of records and seal, with instructions to present the , tame at the next annual session of the grand lodge.

TEACHERS STUMBLE
A STIFF TEST Forty-six of Sixty-five Applicants for License Fail to Pass. Because the questions asked applicants for teachers' licenses, who took the examination at County Superintendent Williams' office a few days ago. demanded specific and exact answers, is the reason why, according to Supt. Williams, forty-six out of the sixty-five who were examined failed. Before the examination was completed four publicly acknowledged it to ' stiff" for them. Twenty-seven examination papers were sent to the state, iind of this number but fourteen were (rood enough for passing grades. Out oi the thirty-four manuscripts graded by the county superintendent but five were given a passing grade, showing that out of the entire number only nineteen applicants got passing grades. Such questions as "When was the I.roclamation of Emancipation issued?" "What historical events occurred in 1607 and 1620?"-"What are the five largest cities in the United Spates?" and "How do you write a There's a Reason for everything, and there's a reason why our direct action heating system has proved a wonderful success.
