LEGEND OF FEBRUARY

Why February has twenty eight days
is explained IN the legends of the past.
A French publication devotes one col
umn to this curious subject. One is of
an old woman, who, tending her flock,
ridiculed the month because it had
dealt so leniently with her and her
sheep. Then February felt insulted,
and made leap year, and borrowed a
cold day from March, and froze her
and her flock. There is a Norman
legend which makes it out that Feb
ruary had originally as many days as
other months, but February was a
confirmed gambler and lost at domi-
noes a day both to January and to
March. Strange to say, there is an old
story of Egypt, wherein the God of
February plays forfeits with the moon
and looses certain days.

SHIRT WAIST FASHIONS
FOR THE MAIL CARRIERS.

Washington, D. C.-Letter car
riers, if they desire to wear shirt
waists, must wear also dark ties and
neat belts. This has been determined
officially by the Postofice Depart
ment.
A few days ago Postmaster-Gen-
eral Meyer received a letter from a
mail carrier suggesting that the
postal regulations state that carriers,
when wearing shirt waists, must wear
dark ties. He then continued:
81 desire very much to know
whether the wearing of ties is COM
pulsory for a member of a religious
sect that does not allow its memCsrs
to wear ties at all. Does not the
Constitution of the United States in
sure religious freedom to every legal
citizen?"
Postmaster-Genera Meyer, reply
ing to the communication, said:
Under the postal regulations If a
letter carrier wishes to wear a shirt
waist he must also wear a turn-Gown
collar with a dark tie and a neat
belt"
