Boys Essay on Clothing.

Here is an extract from an essay,
written by a boy in a London school:
Clothing is an article which every
body should wear. The lea1t of
this article is worn by savages or ma
tives. which is q piece Of cloth or .
few leaves or feathers round the waist.
In cold countries, same as Eskimos,

SECRET WORKERS

Coffee is such a secret worker that
1t is not suspected as the cause ofsick-

sure way to find out the truth.
A lady in Memphis gives an inter

with coffee. It seems that he had been
using it for some time and was an
invalid.

suspected that coffee was the Worm

point and Omaha.
The recovery of the lost package
was as strange as It's disappearance.
The Schuyler pouch is picked up
from crane by means Of q pouch
catcher as the train passes. This
pouch catcher is attached to the mail
car and hooks onto the pouch sus-
pended from the crane as the train
passes. In this particular instance
the pouch catcher did not make q
good catch and the pouch fell under
the wheels of the train and was cut
In two. The mail was scattered along
the track for a considerable distance,
but the FIVE registered letters, which
were in packet, could not be found
when the other mail was picked up.
The impression at once prevailed that
the registered package had been found
and kept by some one and 1t was re-
ported as lost.
Postoffice Inspector L. A. Thomp-
son was started out to investigate. His
first visit was to Council Bluffs to
make inquiries of the postal clerks
on the car, and scarcely had he
reached there when he received word
that the registered package had been
found by the car cleaner resting snug
~ on the trucks under the dining
car, where 1t had been blown or
thrown when the mail pouch was
flung under the wheels at Schuyler.
