The question as 60 what binders ives

All such treatment OF the matter IS
evasive. It is an open secret that there
are certain private interests that are
thriving on the present system Of eX-
cessive parcels post rates
The explanation OF the situation was
tersely stated by ar. Wanamaker, as
long ago as when he was postmaster
general, IN saying that there are three
arguments against the establishment
OF a parcels post the American Express
company. the Adams Express company
and the Wells-FargO Express company

There is no good reason for suppos-
ing that the situation has changed in
the meantime. IF IL has not, and IL
those three arguments are stiu the
logical account Of the natter, the bald
statement Of the case IS that congress
IS training the peoples money TO flow
into the treasures OF the express COM
panies. and knowingly and deliberately
fattening private enterprises at public
expense
Does congressional protection cost the
express companies anything?

THE BAD FORTUNE OF
MONSIEUR JULES
by CASTOR DurtFleu.

" HERE Is a new ledger at the Mai
son Verte, and the heart Of the
fat and jovial proprietor sings
within him. For he is paying
tenant, mark you, one who does hot
grumble over the figures IN the weekly
bin or inquire too closely into the van
ishing properties Of his tobacco and
wine.
Monsieur Jules, you see, has money
to burn. He has come TO Paris IOI
that very purpose. He has said 1t aloud
on the stairs to the ample DoSomed
wife Of the proprietor. he mas Whls-
pered it in the pink ear OF the pro-
prietor's daughter.
The proprietor. splitting sagely over
a pipe in the backyard, thinks to him
self that he viii see that as much as
possible of Monsieur Jules money IS
burnt on the premises. When one has
q fine house like the MaisOn Nerte 70
keep up, and a daughter to marry OF,
one must spend no more OF ones money
than is absolutely necessary, and as
much Of other peoples money as IS
compatible with lodging house honesty.
Marcelle, the prOprietors daughter, is
somewhat Of this opinion Young men,
her father has often told her are the
devil, but where young men with mon
ey are concerned, you may forget TO
look too closely for the clOven hOOI.
So she cOntrives to be often in the
way Of the ledger when he comes up
and down the stairs, taking care that

gown of some light shade; in the even
ing, smart in 8 gay silk shirt waist,
with the rustic OF starched white
petticoat beneath her dark skirt. The
new LOGGER sWaggerS a little when he
sees her, and gives an extra tWirl to
his fine black mustaCh. A fine girl,
Marcellel He buys her fine bouquets
from the little flower shop around the
corner and boxes Of candy tied up with
red silk ribbons
The proprietor and his wife look on
COmplacently, but they keep a wary
eye on the stairs, nevertheless Not
a compliment, not a handshalze, passes
between the pair. but that one or the
other sees or Overhears.
Dame! One has to be careful with a
black mustached ledger in the house
and fine strapptng girl one has every
hope OF marrying well Now, monsieur
Jules has no Intention Of marrying.
The proprietor has sounded him on the
subject tactfully but cOnclusiveIy.
Not that it matters much Already
there are secret pOurpaTlers going on
between the fat proprietor and the
equally fat marchand lie vim IN the Rue
Tabaret The marhcand de vim has a
son, at present serving his time in the
army, but shortly about TO return
home, and then

remarks the marchand de vim, shutting
one eye wisely, always suppOsing, Of
course, that the dot Of mademoiselle-"
mo need TO worry about that old
boy" returns the proprietor. Shaping
him jOvially on the back. They make
merry over a glass or two OF rare old
wine.
Meanwhile, monsieur Jules, uncon-
sctous Of the existence Of the wine mer-
chants son, makes plans for the sub
jugatiOn Of Marcelle. So far he has
not made much progress. True, he
has kissed her pink cheek once in a
