that tho service would be self sustain

Experience has shown that he was
dead wrong. Take the salaries of post
masters In towns from which rura
routes run, and show us where one has
beeu increased since the system was
adopted, unless the town Itself grew In
population. In Odebolt, for illustration
three rural routes add $1,000 a year tc
the expenses of the service, yet the
receipts of the office have not in
creased materially, altho the town is
more than holding It's own and Is To-
Gated in the richest and most prosper
Gus section of tho state.
Now the postmaster general pretends
to believe that If the carriers were
allowed to deliver all kinds OF mer-
chandise to the farmers at a low rate
of postage this $2,70o outlay would be
made good. To do this each carrier
would have to deliver goods on which
che postage would amount To $9uO per
annum
If 1t were possible to work up that
amount of business he would have to
use dray wagon for delivery. With a
dray he could not cover his route In a
day. Consequently two carriers would
have to be appointed for each route,
one to deliver letters and papers, the
other to carry packages. Former ex-
pense, 5000; expense Of new system

Wrappers.

"The hardest thing to wrap up" said
a shipping clerk, lis violin. A de-
partment store will often test new
wrapper by giving him a violin to do
up. If he passes that test he is all
right.

pensive, are rarely used. and thes

things in sheets Of paper alone. He
gets kind Of knack. He lays bis

is done up, and ydu carry 1t safely
