 Philip Nets has a wonderful team It is seen every day hauling the bus around town and jingling a couple of bells. When MT. Nets gets ready to hitch them up he puts the bus in po- sition facing out the front door of his stable, and goes back to the horses in the stalls and unties them. The writer is not sure, however, that they were tied. At any rate, the ami mals back out deliberately, turn with great precision and march up with even tread on either side of the tongue of the bus, and ''PhiP' comes whistlin Q after. People have seen horses do this before and may think this a waste of space, but there is no more to this It is the writer's belief that were it not for one reason "Phil'' would never have to mount the drivers seat to go to the depot and back. He could Sit in his stable after telling the team to go, and wait for their return. While he was waiting the bays would make the rounds to the postoffice, Kimball house, depot and back again without any trouble and make all necessary stops on the way. The only reason "Phil'' goes along is to tell the people to get in the bus and tell them to put in their baggage and put it out. collect the fare and yell ''Mail!" at the postoffice; otherwise, he is of no earthly use.
