heart shouted for liberty Cutting the
calf Of his leg IN order to hide the dia-
mond within the slit, he limped to the
coast TO an English ship captain he
offered il for passage TO any country
where men were free.
The captain, quite casually and with
nice humor, took the gem and threw
the slave into the sea.
The guerdon of such testing release
from serTitude was sold to a dealer for
$4,000 and through him reached Sir
Robert Pitt. governor Of Fort st.
George for $4,000. who shipped II

A Scotch fnancier, John Law, then

And with our flying sticks and stones
Whacked chestnuts from the treei
And then on Saturdays the trips
With baskets. bags and pals

To deeper woods and wales.

Where nuts came rafting down.

For pleasures OF the town?

The CHECK system.

John Palmer, who died some years
ago 10 rather straitened circumstances
IN a little town IN Michigan. was the
inventor Of the check system. Palmer
was fiddler and assumed responsible
ity for the hats, coats and wraps OF
those who came to his dancing parties,
In keeping things straight he gave
numbered checks for the articles com
mitted to bis care. Some railroad men
who attended one of the dances no
siced how perfectly the idea worked
and appropriated II. and IN short time
the system was adopted all over the
country. As Is SO often the case, the
inventor got nothing out OF it.-New

RURAL DELIVERY HAS
EXISTED THIRTEEN YEARS

Washington, Oct. To-day is the
thirteenth anniversary of the installa'
tion OF rural delivery in the United
States and the records show that no
branch of the postal service has had
so recent beginning with equally re-
markable results. y
The honor of the first attempt 70
test the practicability of such radi-
ca. broadening OF the operations Of in
dividual delivery rests with five routes
from three postoifices in West Vir-
ginia.
The innovation was SO great that it
took some time for the people to be
benefited TO realize the advantage in
store for them. BY the end OF the
third fiscal year after this service be-
gan but 391 routes were established,
at an annual expenditure Of s150,012.
The convenience. as we'll as ethical.
economical, commercial and educa-
uonal benefits incident to this public
utility were now so foreefully demon
strated that expansion went on rapid
ly, the cost aggregating up to the
present time no less than $4,000 600.
The 40,S04 carriers in covering their
40,919 routes traverse more than
100000 miles every secular day of
the year. excepting New Year, Wash
Ington's Birthday, Memorial or Deco
ration, Independence, Labor, and
days. or the Monday
should those days fall on
he Sabbath. In making their daily
route more than 2O,OOO.OOO rural resi-
tents are served. ds
