Protest Against the Proposed system or
Free Delivery Of Mails.

Free Delivery of Mails.
The inhabitants of Guilford living in
the southeast part of the town were dumb
founded to learn by The Phoenix the secret
effort that had been going on TO dscon-
tnue the Guilford post office and estab-
fish for part of the patrons free de-
livery and compelling the inhabitants of
school districts Nos. / and Is, also one
district in Vernon, known as Tyler hill, to
90 from one to five miles TO boxes estab-
lished by the roadside near the Brown
farm. The article in The Phoenix repre-
sents that the families below the Brown
farm were accommodated al Bernardston.
There are Just five families in district No.
l. that receive their mail at Bernardston;
the rest are patrons Of the Gu..ford office.
And they all demonstrate against this
move, and feel that they have been IN
justly treated. II this free delivery is es-
tablished there will have 10 be erected
about 20 boxes near the Brown farm and
people will have to travel from i've TO nine
miles TO Brattleboro for letter stamps. Al
ter free delivery the stage route through
Guilford will be thrown up and the public
will have no way 70 travel. Our postmas-
ter will close his store and 90 away: 10
one will care 20 live in the tenement
houses when there is no public conveyance
to Brattleboro, where they would be com
PEELED to go for every article they have to
purchase.
Ii the free delivery had been established
through districts Nos. and - and the
Guilford office retained, all would have
been satisfied. 1t is estimated that if the
free delivery route is established it will
give the Brattleboro postmaster an addi-
tioDal S400. X. Y. FAIEBANK,

that the matter of establishing the free

Post NIortem Spite.

Brooches, rings, medallion portraits
and other similar articles, mostly val
ued for old associations sake, are con-
stantly being consigned to the grave,
even among the poorer classes Of the
community. Indeed in a large east end
cemetery not long ago a body was bur-
led with large sum-several hundred
pounds-in Bank of England notes, the
valuable roll being placed inside the
little hollow wooden pillow which sup
ported the head. 1t is difficult to sur
mise the object of this strange pro-
ceeding. as the only result would be, Of
course, to present the institution in
question with the face value Of the
notes. 1t may have been, however,
that the intention was to try and dis
appoint some eXpectant heir at law,

spite which Is far more common than

Facts a. to winks.

No satisfactory determination has
been made of the reason we wink.
Some suppose that the descent and re-
turn of the lid over the eye serve to
sweep or wash it off; others that COW
ering of the eye gives it rest from
the labor of vision, if only for an map
preciable instant This view borrows
some force from the fact that the rec
ord Of winking is considerably used by
experimental psychologists to help
measure the fatigue which the eye sui
fers.
M. V. Henri says in L'Annee Psyche
logique that different persons wink diff
ferently some often, others rarely;
some in groups of ten or so at time,
when they rest awhile. and others reg
ularly, once only at time. The move
ment is modified by the degree of at
tention. Periods of close interest,
when we wink hardly at all, may be
followed by a speedy making up for
lost time by rapid winking when the
tension is relieved. = Popular Science
