ssHi there!" called q somewhat excited
woman to the postman who was passing on
his morning round. "Whers's that letter
sent three weeks ago to my sister in Buff
faloy She never got il and has written to
know whether I'm mad At her or some OF u
81 know nothing about IL. madam"
"Of course you don't. i suppose the posi-
master-qeneral would say the same thing.
MY own private opinion 10 that this govern
ment is running at mighty loose ends. 1
put a stamp on that letter to pay for having
Il sent. 1t was directed as plain as print.
II is lost or stolen and my own sister rs blam-
ing me for neglecting her.. It's all politics,
that's what it is, putting in a lot OF raw
hands every four years, and ] don't propose
to stand il. I'm going to find out whether
YOU mail men can defraud your customers
and make family trouble just because, you,
don't know enough to look after your bust
ness"
"But ] never saw your letter, my good
woman"
II don't care anything about that
Ne:the- cd nv sister ever see il. I'll not
sleep till I write the president and give him
a piece of my mind. The idea OF paying al
army Of nisn to lose letters. It's ridiculous
1t won't be long before some OF you are look
ing for other jobs, or ] miss my guess.
During this conversation the woman'shus
band dove frantically into his pockets, raj
hatless through the back gate, put that let
ter into a mail box and made a fine show o
temper while helping his wife abuse the gov
