Prosperity News No. 4.

Y Well, Mr.. Editor, it was very rough
on us last week but am still able to
fly. Some of my Saluda pbtrons
jumped on me with both feet because
I said I had bad roads over there.
Well, 1 should have made a little ex-
ception. The road from G. G. Longs
to A. L .Wyse's, distance of two
miles, has been worked and kept up
extra fine but there are others that
haven't been worked since / began
in the service and some say one OF
my roads hasn't been worked in ten
years. Who can beat that7 like
the work and all my patrons but L
have some that just won't take any
interest in roads.
I said would give you some Of my
early experiences. One among the
first was-shortly after I began rid
ing in the spring I saw a large black
snake in the road with his head just
across the wagon rut. So, [ said, I'll
fix you. 7 drove directly over his
head but the weight was not sufficient
to kill him. He clinched to the wheel
and made few revolutions Herewith
and landed on the seat beside me.
OF course, I Immediately if not soon
er gave him entire possession but he
soon found that he did not have Uncle
Sam IS commission or permission so
Rhe dropped out and we went on our
Isgay and ever thereafter I gave the
Soad for Mr.. Snake. .
s. During this same week we drove up
h box to deposit mail and on rails
tg the lid found an inmailable pack
se---a whole swarm Of bees. Well,
stead Of being stamped they began
stamp MS; that is, me and my pony.

KinglY Cruelty.
Ponaria No. l.

When, Ismail Pasha, the late khe-
dive of Egypt, rciencd over that his
torical land, he had in his garden Il
large cage of African lions. One day,
while he was walking in the garden,
he met keeper accompanied by a
little girl, carrying il basket Of meat
for the lions. The lihcdive walked
toward the cage to watch the beasts
eat. They were hungry, and pounced
upon their food with ravcnous fury.
Standing close by the cage. with her
hands resting on the bars, was the lit
tie child.
"Why do you permit your daugh-
ter to go so near the lions?' the khc-
dive asked of the keeper.
"Oh," replied the man, "thcy are
SO accustomed to her they would not
harm hcr.'
"Then open the door and put her
insilc,' said the khedive.

ness Of those who know their lives
will pay the forfeit if they disobey,

FLYING Fish.

The flying fish does not fly; it
jumps out Of the water, propelled by
the most powerful tail in use in pro
portion to the size of the bearer. Ii
jumps from the water only to escape
from its enemies, among which are
the bonita, the shark, the sperm
whale and the dolphin. The last is
the most active.
The fins, which are called wings,
guide the fish to some extent and en-
able it to make such extraordinary
leaps, some leaps have been estimat-
ed at eighty rods in length. The fly
ing fish of the West Indies is from
six to eight inches long. The largest
are found in the Pacific and are
sometimes eighteen inches long. 1t is
said that flying fish have taken the
fly and fight well when hooked. The
West Indian flying fish is said to be
better eating than smelt; but the
Pacific coast fish is not esteemed as
food. The scientific name for The
flying fish is cxocaetus.

Pomaria No. I,

Editor R. f. D. Department:
I will come again taking for my
text roads, boxes, pennies, dinner. 1t
seems to me we will have to talk our
selves to death to get the supervisor
to take some action OH having the
roads worked. But the supervisor
is not so much to blame rs the pat
rons for there is not an overseer but
who is not also patron and he is
anxious for his mail to be brought to
him and that too on time but still he
takes no interest in keeping his sec
ton of the road in good possible con-
dition. I have on several occasions
paid for having bad places fixed
which had become almost impossible
and thought that would stir the over
seer but it produced no efefct. Kind
patrons DO fix the roads for your
faithful mail carriers. Consider, have
any of them one time refused to do
you legitimate favorq Then show
your appreciation for the convenience
of having your mail brought right to
your door by doing your duty towards
Uncle Sam and his humble servants.
Another important matter,is for the
patrons to have their boxes put up
conviently for the carrier so that he
can dispatch the mail without unnec-
essary loss Of time. A box SHOULD not
be over four feet from the ground to
the bottom of the box and should be
extended on a board not less than
eighteen inches long and be sure that
the brace is not so low as to hinder
the easy passage Of the wheels. Do
this kind patrons will youq I have
some boxes that the patrons have to
get on a block and tiptoe besides to
get their mail. You know all about it

We would be glad to hear from
our sub-carrier through this depart
meGt and hereby extend to them an
invitation to fall into line. There is
much that they can talk about that
will be Of interest to each Of them
and to the patrons of, the routes.
How strange it seems and yet it is
true! Some people will actually do
more work and spend more time driv-
ing up stakes and hauling logs to lay
along the roadside to keep you out of
their fields, than it would take to fix
the bad place that they themselves
must after drive through.
,2 AS several of the carriers have ask
ed us about our mail wagon, we will
say that if it had been possible for
each Of you to have had it just one
hour on your several routes last Tues
day, when it was raining and freez-
ing, you would have felt as we did,
that it is ga thing Of beauty and a
joy forever.' 1t is about fifty inches
long and about 28 inches wide and
weighs 270 lbs. Almost any buggy and
especially a top buggy, weighs 800
lbs. to $50 lbs. It is built Of light,
but strong material and is guaranteed
for one year. 1t is put up in two
styles, one with side doors and the
other with a rear door. We preferred
the rear door on account of not hav-
ing to go between the wheels to get
in and out. On, each side there is
large glass window about 18X20
inches which slides up and down. A
glass window of about the same size
hangs by hinges in front, and the
door at the back has roll-up curtain
at the top similar to that Of top
buggy. When the cold wind begins to
blow and the rain falls in torrents
you can close down everything in less
than thirty seconds and be as COM
Portable and as snug and as serene as
if you were at home in your sitting
room. We wouldn't part with it for
any price if we couldn't get another.
1t is light and airy and easy riding
being fitted up with Shuler springs
and in bad weather You simply don't
know how the weather feels until you
open a window to dispatch your mail.
In other words, you have got your
house with you and you are at home
wherever you 60. No, it is not large
enough for two persons, to ride III,

Our friend No. Of Prosperity, in
giving his early experiences as mail
carrier, tells lis Of how he was horror
stricken and his hair made to stand
on end, by seeing snakes alotgneh
on seeing snakes along the road and
how these shiny, wriggling reptiles
in all their creeping crawling loathe-
someness, wrapped and entwined
themselves in his buggy wheels and
even dropped into the seat in coils
beside him and rode with him. Truly,
in the light Of such an experience,
Tam O'Shanter's ride past Alloways
old haunted churchyard, on that grue-
some winter night, fades into insigni-
ficance.
Since this was one Of the early eX-
periences Of Prosperity No. and
since lie does not mention l9aving
seen any snakes lately, we judge that

take shy way to advertise cook.

you need just send them down to our

also furnish the provisions. I wish
you could have seen what No. 4 got
during Christmas. I just know got
the best cooks. got just the finest
kind of turkey, chicken, ham, salads,
cakes, pickles, sauce, etc. A regular
banquet menu.
[ would like to see all our patrons
use more stamped envelopes. They are
very cheap. just think of getting
twenty-five for fifty-three cents.
They are much better than the major
lty that are used and they look more
business like. Patrons, try them. If
you spoil one your carrier will give
you two cent stamp for same. This
will help to do away with the penny
nuisance. 1t is very disagrceable to
have to fish for pennies these very
cold days. Very often they dorp in
to the mud and the carrier loses them.

TOWER HEIGHTS
GOES ON MARKET
Desirable Tract of Virgin
Ground Cut Up Into Build
ing Lots.
OWNED BY R. R. ANDERSON
WAS PART OF ESTATE LEFT BY
BRIGHAM YOUNG.

Tower Heights, a tract of land be-
tween A and 3 streets and Sixth and
Ninth avenues. is to be opened up as a
new residence section of the city. This
land was originally located soon after the
arrival of the pioneers by Brigham Young
and has been reserved for forty years
The tract is 20 by 20 rods, in the vicinity
of the old tower, still standing, which
was erected in the early days for pro-
lection against the Indians.
After the death of Brigham Young the
land was purchased by r. r. Anderson.
private secretary to President Young. who
made the inventory of the estate. Many
years ago Brigham Young predicted
he the select residence portion of the city.
IT was Mr.. AndeTsOn's hope that the
church would select this location as the
site of church university, but it was
decided to locate the institution outside
the city
The land is divided up into about fifty
building lots. which will be sold by He
her J. Grant & Co, who have secured the
agency. The desirable location of this
property will undoubtedly cause a de-
minutes walk from down town, and there
is also convenient car service. the Sixth
avenue line running to Sixth and B.
Preparations are being made for an eX-
tension of the line on street to Ninth
avenue.
On the west. the Tower Heights prop
erty faces City Greek park. insuring q
good outlook. The lots are 125 feet above
the road. On the east of the tract the
Mcintyre and Clayton mansions are 10
Gated It is believed the price at which
the lots are held will insure the proper
building restrictions. The land will be
placed on the market at once. and blue
prints are now in the hands of Heber ].
