ABOUT WRITING LETTERS.

Letters travel so cheaply and quickly
nowadays that we who send them and
those who receive them regard them too
lightly. When the post was slower and
moro expensive letters were written with
more care, and we all know how full of
interest and valuable information MANY
of the old-time letters are today.
When away Gu your vacation write
bright and newsy letters to your best
friends. but above all things refrain from
unkindly criticising those you have met.
Remember that this world is not such a
big space after all. People who are
widely separated in summer time NAV he
brought close together in winter time
Honor only a few with your confidence,
You may write bright letters to all your
circles of acquaintance. and, after all
those things which concern you indiyidu-
ally and closest are often only tiresome
to other folks.
\ letter, no matter who has penned it
to ycu, should be received as a contiden-
tial matter, to be taken care of and
not subjected to the comment and criti-
cism Of others. When it was written
there was doubtless no other thought con-
corning it in the mind of the sender but
that your eyes alone would sean it.
Haven't you at one time or another
posted n letter and then wished you had
not done so? 1t is homely advice, bat
good, to write letter and sleep on it
ever night. st. Louis Republic.

SWEET OLD LOVE WORD.

Women, perhaps, treasure love in their
hearts more than men do. They prob.
ably love more deeply. and feel neglect,
or fancied neglect, more keenly.
There has been good deal said of
the great necessity Of keeping love-" but
1t might be argued that if it has to be
preserved or picked, or tied up in q
mer. and plants in frosty weather, it's
not the best kind: that there's something
artificial about it, and that it doesn't
thrive well in the climate it happens to
live in
Husbands and wives don't always
grow apart by being too reserved. The
calamity has heen known to come about
by the entire absence of reserve and COM
mon politeness.
Natures differ so. The matter-of- fact
woman will drive the sensitive man to
the l'lnatlc asylum unless the good fairy
who gave him his sensitivencss dropped
him lump of common sense at the same
time.
Ii is often declared that the man WHIT,
was Il splendid lover proves a neglcctful
and thoughtless husband. Sometimes
he drops into the human habit of under
estimating the good things of his life
directly they are his; sometimes he takes
up the natural even tenor of life more
quickly than his wife does Often he
is reserved, and sometimes he thinks that
the eternal mouthing Of the word "love"
is. silly and sentimental. If he does les

is exactly of his mind. If not. there are
troubles ahead for them both. and the

this himself. and told me how strangely

passed over her face. and then she died.
Perhaps they needed no tender words

them: if she had been heart-hungry. as
women often are, what pity that the

PostOffce Dead Letter Library.

All the effects of the postotfice depart
ment have been moved from the old
building OH T. street to the new postof,
flee on Pennsylvania avenue, except the
dead letter library 1t requires more
room than has yet been arranged for,
This library is the result of the Careless
ness of people in sending literature
through the mails. The books were for
merly sold for few cents at the annual
dead letter sale. They seldom brought
more than 10 cents volume, while they
were not infrequently worth several dol
lars. In 1887 Postmaster General Villas
issued an order requiring the books to be
put at the disposal Of a librarian, after
having been kept the two years required
by law, that the choicest might be Sc
lected for postoftice library Prior to
1887 the purchase of valuable book
formed an epoch in the department, and
this book is the nucleus around which
the rest of the postofice library seemed
to form. This is the original journal of
Hugh Finley, the first postoffice in
spector, in 1773-1774.. 1t was bought
from the Astor library in 1869 for $3.50.

DIVERSITY OF OPINION.
Speaking of compliments, one woman
stood up the other morning in a literary
club and assured all members that she
made it rule Of her life never to say
tlattering things to her sex.
Il never pay compliments because most
women cannot stand them. 1t sets them
up too much. They grow unbearable,
and if one does not keep them fed with
sugar plums they get huffy."
There was quite discussion after
this, most of the members agreeing that
it was all wrong to pay compliments.
