by the throat and he has to goad himself
to his duty. once on board the train and
in the thick Of his work he gets over his
fears and forgets them. but to most OF
the men comes at one time or another
the thought OF the danger under which
they have to work. The liability 70
wrecks Is not always the danger most TO
be reckoned with. There is the tense strain
under which the work must be accom-
plished. the vibration OF the train that,
with the poor light obtainable. makes the
constant use OF the mail clerks eyes for
all sorts OF handwritings on all kinds of
paper very injurious to his eyesght: there
are the unnaturally long hours that no
amount of recreation can make up for.
All this makes the service of the railway
mail clerk doubly valuable to all Of us
for whom he works.
Leisure Hours.
There Is little leisure for the postal clerk
to guess at the contents of some of the
curious packages that pass through his
hands nor stop to think over some of the
strange and weird addresses on the let
ters he handles Sometimes he peeps into
a box to see a half dozen lizards or hears
the squeaking OF white mice, but he is
used to the unusual and hasn't time for
more than hurried comment to his neigh
Dor on the freakiness of human nature in
general When his work is lghtened, as
on a homeward journey after a very heavy
run on the day before, he may steal time
now and then at stations for a glance out
of the postofiice door at the pretty face
of a village belle. In fact, many time
the village belle learns the run of a par
ticular clerk and manages to happen at the
station to wave her hand and smile
welcome to him. But this is not reckoned
among the regular duties of the postal
clerk. On his aptness in flirting the gov
eminent fails to examine him.
1t is seventy years since the United
States has made use Of the railroads to
carry mail, the length of the railway mail
routes then being seventy-eight miles all
told in contrast TO the something like 3O0,-
900 miles of route at the present day. For
the first thirty years after the mail began
to be carried on the railroads the bags
were not opened en- route, or IL a mes
senger accompanied the mails he simply
assorted the packages of letters for the
local postoffices along the line of the rail-
road, and all through mail going beyond
his route was dumped into the terminal
postoffice to be held twelve or twenty-four
hours for examination and separation.
What a revolution in postal affairs when
the railway mail clerks sort over 100000,
900 pieces of mail matter in a year, thus
economizing an UNREASONABLE amount of
time, facilitating business to a wonderful
degree and drawing a hundredfold closer
the thousands of separated friends and
members OF families.-Brooklyn Eagle.
