A friend OF mine says there are two sorts
OF people IN the world -'posts and rails. :"
and good many more rails than posts.
The meaning Of this ia that most people
depend on somebody else "A father, a sis-
ter, a husband, wife, or perhaps on =
neighbor.
Whether II is right to divide the whole
population Of the earth quite so strictly, il
is true that we all know good many rail-
like people. Blanche Evans tells me one
Of the Rail girls sits by her in school.
Miss Rail never had knife OF her own,
though she used sort Of pencil that con-
tinually needs sharpening; so Blanche's
pretty penknife was borrwed until one
day the Rail.girl snapped the blade.
Blanche was 80 tired Of lending the knite
that she was not very sorry.
Miss Rails brother works beside Henry
Brown in the Office OF the Daily Hurri
cane. They both set type, and Henry's
patience is sorely tried by Master Rail.
II Henry tells him to-day whether the |
is doubled in model when cd is added, he
will have forgotten Tomorrow; and Hem
ry has TO tell him whether the semicolon
comes before or after viz, every time he
"sets II up" The truth is the Rail boy
doesn't try TO remember these things; he
has taken Henry for post and expects to
be held up by him.

the other to know II they we're change cars

She asked her companion the time though
her own watch was in order, she couldn't
"botber to remember" names or routes and
hotels and people, but she found II very
convenient for somebody to do oil this for
her, and she never concealed her surprise
il her friend forgot or neglected anything.
Being post is often unpleasant. but
how much worse is it to be o rail- The
post can stand by itself-but take II away
