Have mercy on the Mail Carriers, aid
clean your walks. They are hard working
and deserving men, worthy of your utmost
consideration. Each aud every one OF
them tramps from ten To forty miles day.
and the suburban carriers can make lar
better time on clean walks than they can
plouung through foot of snow.
The number of fine horses owned in town
and kept for pleasure purposes is very large
and easily surpasses any town of this siz
in the State. 1t is constant matter FIR
remark by visitors, yet iew people here
realize the importance of the horse in this
town and county. There are probably -
horses in Butler able to do a mile und, r
three inmates and a number of them can
get down close tu 2:25.
