Postal Red Tame.

The rule Of the dead letter office is to
make extraordinary effort to return all
missent letters which are found to con-
tain money. But blind obedience to
this rule is the basis of an entertaining
story. A boy in the Indian school on
the Skokomish reservation, which is
about three miles from the postoffice of
Union City, Wash, wrote o letter to
his brother at Seabeck some time ago,
inclosing in it a.smsll sum of money.
He also wrote ON the envelope that, if
it should not be delivered in proper
time, was to be returned to the writ
or. His brother did not call for it, and
1t was returned to Union City. The
postmaster there had not heard Of the
boy, and on inquiry failed to find him
Accordingly he sent the letter to the
dead letter Office
On arrival here it was opened, and it
had money in it. 1t was returned to
Union City with long letter of instruc-
tions to find the writer, if possible.
After inquiry the boy was at last found
and was requested to 60 in person,
claim the letter and receipt for it, and
the postmaster had to go through as
much red tape as if the letter contained
$1,000. The joke becomes evident when
1t is known that the money in the letter
amounted to only q cent postage stamp
and q copper cent.-New York Tribune.

tonly modest them you may live ON the
most friendly and sociable terms even
with wasps."
