Perhaps you cannot come

have but to write for what yor
want, and that letter or postal
sets maybe a dozen people or
the go-ana all .toc 1on.
There are picking and COM

there, and after the choice
comes the writing down and
figuring up, and packing and
sending. And when the quick

doesn't take one more cent
