New Calling for WOmen--Car
r;erS on Rural Mail Routes.

Another new department is likely to be
the employment of women more extensive
ly as carriers ::on rural mail routes, says
the Baltimore American" Already a
few Of the gentler sex are in the service,
at the customary $50 month, and they
lave been found very satisfactory. The
work they are obliged to do is not severe
or ardous, except occasionally in stormy
weather, and the official uniform of light
gray cloth, cut to fit the figure neatly, is
noticeably becoming. Thus attired, the
postwoman, with her pack of letters and
newspapers, is a most cheerful and attrac-
tive object as she dismounts at the farm
house door to deliver and collect the
mail.
Ordinarily, however, the rural delivery
boxes are so arranged--being neatly paint
ed and fastened to posts at a height of
five feet above the ground-that it is not
necessary for the carrier to dismount from
his horse or from the little wagon which
he more commonly employs in his bust
ness He is obliged to furnish both horse
and wagon at his own expense, but he is
permitted to transport passengers, as
we'll as to carry unavailable packages and
other odds and ends, so that he earns a
good deal of extra money. Incidentally
he is news agent and newspaper distrib-
utor, and thus. with multiplied activi-
ties he derives an income from quite a
variety of sources.
The Postofice Department has decided
to furnish every farmer, at its own ex'
pense, with an official letter box, which
being the property of the Government, will
be protected against theft by the awful
authority of the federal law. Thus in fu-
ture, on the rural free delivery routes,
mail matter will be as safe from robbers
as when deposited in receptaclcs on urban
street corners.
