Eleven Million Mistakes q Year.
Il have just received a letter returned
to me by the dead letter office at Wash
ington, the first in my experience" said a
business man. Il had often read In the
newspapers stories about the enormous
amount Of mail matter that finally found
its way to the dead letter office, and about
the valuables and checks and money found
in it, and it had always seemed sort Of
strange to me that 80 many people could
be 80 careless. Now here was q letter for
me from the dead letter office.
This letter had not been misdirected,
nor carelessly, addressed. The address was
correctly and plainly written, and the
letter had reached its point of destination,
but 1t had been returned to me for the
tragic reason that the person to whom il
was addressed was dead; and 1t had been
returned to me through the dead letter
office, for the reason that my W skNreSs
not on the envelope.
Along with this letter OF ntne va a

CHAPTER V.
TWENTY YEARS AFTER,

YEARLY, slowly, a prematurely aged
woma logged a bucket Of water and a
mop up the fight Of stairs from the stage
entrance Of the Apollo Theatre.
Laboriously soaking the mop in the
bucket Of water, she slowly began to scrub
up the stage where only a brief hour before
dozens of gorgeously gowned stage beauties
had transformed the now dingy scene into
a vision Of loneliness.
And as Sylvia Stapleton, charvoman,
scrubs the stage she once adorned does she
ever regret the past7

OF course, there IL no likelihood OF

When the commission brings In its
report, we predict that the two great
ost abuses that will be pointed out
will DO the extrnvagant charges of
railroads, and the unnecessary use of
the franking privilege, or the sending
OF unnecessary government publica-

rate on second class mail matter is
already much higher In the United
States than in Canada, aud tho rate

countries. Under these circumstances
there should DO no need for increasing
the rates of postage.
