4 STAMP ON A LETTER.
The Bitter Curse Of the Post office Clerk
Upon His Euemles.

rhe Bitter Curse OF the Post office Clerl
Upon His Eaemies.
Portland Oregonian.l
"Spat, spat, spat!" with effective
regularity descended the stamp in the
hands Of the post-office clerk. Upon
the right.hand upper corner of each
letter it fell, aud with the impact each
time 2 cents worth of postage was
destroyed permanently. 1t mattered
not whether the "spat" fell ON one OF
the new sickly red stamps, or on one
OF the old sickly green variety, the
future usefulness of either was done
away with. All at once the clerk
paused. As tho letters shifted under
his def fingers he noted one-a deli.
cate, perfumed note it CHANGED to be
the upper right.hand corner OF
which bore no evidence OF dealings
between the writer and the govern
ment. lie lifted it clear from the let.
tiers about it and saw what the matter
was. The stamp had been affixed on
the upper left hand corner. 1t was a
little feminine fancy, that was all, but
to defsce the stamp Of that one letter
had occupied more time Of one man
than had the manipulation OF the
thirty letters preceding it.
The post office clerk, . man Of
broad forehead and evident intellect,
drew himself to his full height and
raised one hand. Then, solemnly, he
launched the curse of the laborer
against the woman who stamps her
letters on the upper left hand corner.
"May all evils most dreaded Of woman
como upon her." he Numbered. "May
her tight shoes pinch her till her feet
become deformed; may every breeze
which fans her cheek produce .
freckie; may her best friend give
away her secrets; may the man she
most affects become smitten of an.
other; may she have hang may
her hair come out; may her teeth
turn yellow; may she want till she
calls like the horse leecl''s daughter :
Anathema!"
Then YEARLY turned to his work
again the post-ofiice clark, and the
"spat, spat. spst" of the stamping was
resumed with a dull monotopy, but
the thoughts of the man we're hot and
burning.

Commenting upon the statement in

visited Boise recently, with tho in.
sension Of investing there, said that
he quit IN disgust, because he found
it impossible to close \ transaction.
He agreed on prices for three pieces
of property, but on trying to close
the deals higher prices were asked"
tho Statesman says that "There is
nothing improbable in the statement.
The offer to sell property in this city
upon ono day has heen no criterion as
to its value for the next during the
past month. In many cases such
value has doubled within that time.
1t Was the case with . lot opposite
tho Statesman Office. When . pro.
perty-owner makes an offer to sell it
il At . price he esteems to be it's pres.
ent value, AID not what it may be
worth the next day, week or month.
The would.be purchaser in such =
case should pay some money down
when the offer is made aud take some
note or memorandum thereof in
writing, stating the facts and have it
signed BY the property.owner making
the Offer. That would be what a
great many persons seem to he utterly
incapable of comprehen ne-busi.
ness. Many persons have lost excel
lent bargains by taking too much time
for con i'd. alton. They are too slow.
The men who have made money in
Boise recently have been those who
struck while the iron was hot"

pleasure, and hope that Boise real es.
