A Good Systam.


A Good Systam.
Chas. Chandler, the good looking
young clerk in the postoffice at this
place, was hard at work in the
Office the other day when gentle
tap was heard at the door and in
stepped blusaing maiden OF 70,
with money order which she wished
cashed. She handed it, with
bashful smile, to Charley, who after
. closely examining it, gave her the
money it called for. At the same
time he asked her if she had read
what was written on the margin of
the order.
"No l have not" she replied,
''for l cannot make 1t out, will you
please read it for ms?"
Charley read as fellows 81 seod
you $40 and dozen kisses" Glanc,
ing at the bashful girl he said:
"Now, i have paid you the money
and l suppose you want the kisses"
eyes she said, I" il he has sent me
any kisses i want them, too"
Itis hsdly necessary to say that
the balance of the order was prompt
ly paid and in scientific manner.
On reaching home the delighted
MAIDEN remarked to her mother:
"Mother, this post Office system Of
ours is great thing, developing
more and more every year, and each
new feature seems to be the best.
Jimmy sent me dozen kisses along
with the money order, and the post
master gave me 2e. 1t beats the
special delivery system all hollow"
Compuollr Harris writes the
County Court Clerk that he advised
all of the Assessors not to require
any personal property schedule
where they know the property owner
has not over 81 , oof worth of personal
properly. This is good move as it
will save much time and some ex-
pense. We hope our assessors will
follow this advice.
