This means that 150 extra mall clerks can be used each day of the ten days that the rush continues. Extra mall cars which are held in reserve by the railroad companies will be pressed into service.

Hitherto the mail has been transferred in Council Bluffs from the mail cars of one company to the mail cars of another. This took time and ‘work. Mr. Johnston believes the through- <car movement will prove such a success in experiment that it will be made per- manent. —— Throat and Lung Trouble quickly helped by Dr. King's New Dis- covery.
