How very modest our contemporary is
with its ten cents word kind OF item
The postmaster has as much to do with the
''improving" as the king of the Cannibal
Islands-no more, no less. The United
States make the contract for painting,
direct even the mixing of the paint, and
foot the bills. How public spirited that
postmaster is

McCall's estate were sold at auction yester-

public, and will tend to increase their bust
ness.
