Postal Changes.

You might think we meant postOHce
changes, but we do not We intend mere
ly to make some slight mention of the
changes recommended by ex-Postmaster
General Wanamaker in the United
States postal service He believes if his
recommendations were followed it would
add greatly to the efficiency of mail de-
livery to the American people.
Hewould like to see United States post
al telegraphs, telephones and postal saw
ings repositories. With the buildings,
clerks, etc, already at the disposal of gov
ernment, in his Judgment the postal tele-
graph feature could be added in such a
way that the department. could even
draw. small profit from it. The stamp
system could be employed. When one
wanted to send a telegram from Kala-
mazoo to Shawmagunk, he could step to
the drug store, buy postal telegraphic
stamp, write his message, put the stamp
upon it and drop it into the nearest mail
box. The carrier would come along next
mail delivery, take the message to the first
postoffce or postofice station, where it
would be sen at once This seems to be
about Mr.. Wanamaker's idea.
He believes that the government should
rent the useof telegraphic lines from ex-
listing companies as it now rents the post
al cars. Telephone messages could be
sent in the same way where necessary or
desirable. Mr.. Wanamaker thinks that
contract could be made with the com
panies to deliver such messages at re
duced rates. But Immediately on these
rates being made Of course all the people
would use the postal telegraph, and the
result would presently be government
ownership of the telegraphs. @
Another change recommended is that
of allowing the pcstofdces to be places Of
deposit for small savings, giving the de
positor rate Of interest amounting to
per cent less than that paid by savings
banks. When the sum deposited by an
individual amounted to enough to afford
an investment. it should be withdrawn.
The postal savings should be sent to the
secretary Of the treasury and would af.
ford "a great fund on which the govern
ment could draw in case Of emergency
and would make it unnecessary to keep
a huge surplus in the treasury From
which it will be seen that the ex-post-
master general is inclined to adopt the
views of the Nationalist party.
Finally he would have the parcels
post enlarged in its facilities and cheap.
ened as to its rates. The great express
and telegraph companies ere Of course

The Decline of Matrimony.

Acurious contribution is that Of Junius
Henri Browne to the New York World
on the subject Of young women and mat
rimony. Girls no longer desire to get
husbands as they used to, says Mr..
Browne. "A new order of the sex has
arisen since the civil war" It is partly
owing to the fact that they earn their
own living nowadays and do not need to
look to men to support them This is
not dattering to men-the insinuation
that hitherto women have only taken
husbands as a means of support, and
now that so many trades and professions
are open to them they choose more
agreeable means Of maintenance-b but if
a masculine writer puts it forward as a
reason, the rest of the world will not
quarrel with him.
Another reason adduced by Mr.. Browne
is the prevalence and publicity Of di-
vorce suits. Formerly, before divorce
was. SO common, wives buried their griev-
ances in their own breasts and would
have died before letting the world know
Of them. But now that they can get re-
lease they no longer keep the direful tale
to themselves, but sometimes even ex-
aggerate il in order to be free. This
frightens off girls from marriage, often
times just those who would make the
noblest wives Again it is a man who
says these things, we would remind our
readers Mr.. Browne, however, makes
some amends for turning against his
own sex when he says in conclusion that
he does not claim but women would still
be delighted to marry if they could find
anybody anywhere near their ideal hus-
bands. Then he spoils it all again by
asking, ''But what woman can count on
that?'' 49,
