FACTS ABOUT THE
MAIL SERVICE

WASHINGTON, d. c.. June In
view OF the fact that by far the great
er part of all mail matter transmitted
in the United States is carried by rail
for some part of its journey and that
these trips vary from a few miles "a
the entire span of the continent. IL is
surprising TO learn that the total cost
to the Government Of the services of
the railways in carrying the mail from
the point of its origin TO the town or
city of its destination is less than the
cost of local collection and delivery
That such is the fact, however is
shown by the figures given in the
Postmaster Generals report for the
year. ending June 30, 1910.
This report shows that the total
payments TO the railways for carrying
the mails throughout the preceding
year were s49.34O,63s
For the same period the cost Of
rural delivery was S36 .96S and the
cost of city delivery was S31, ,6S3. .639
making a total Of s6S,52S,60S or S19.-
1S7 ,969 more than the cost Of mail
transportation by rail.
In other words, the cost of deliver
ing letters and mail packages over the
few blocks or at most the few miles
that they must travel after reaching
the office of distribution, is approXi-
mately forty per cent. greater than the
amount paid to the railroads for trans
porting them by fast trains throughout
the entire country.

Odds and Ends forFeminine Journal Readers
Fashions and Fads by M. E. CiIIey

The scarves of sheer batiste or null
daintily embroidered in fine traoeries,
combined with eyelets. are immensely
popular for the thin summer frock
Bags of white satin striped IN black
are among the newest features in this
lime. The handles are Of twisted
silk and are much shorter than for
merly.
Jabots of fine linen, trimmed with
baby Irish, antique or Valenciennes
lace are modish and add decided
touch of elegance to the plain blouse
or waist.
Little morning frocks OF linen show
simple lines, emphasizing the kimono
Short sleeve. the collarless bodices,
the high lines and perhaps a touch of
hand embroidery.
Silk marquisettes, voiles and grena.
dimes have taken the place Of chiffon
10 a great extent this season, and all
these materials are closely copied in
cotton fabrics.
Hats are not trimmed exclusively
with roses; there are buttercups, ane-
monies and all kinds OF meadow and
marsh flowers, being considered more
truly smart.
Parasols are offered in many new
combinations and colors-velvet in
combination with rafia; mousseline
banded with velvet; lowered crepe
and two-toned satins.
Tailored costumes Of serge and
broadcloth have short silk or satin
sashes with fringed or tasseled ends.
which are worn hanging at one side
or directly at the back.
The craze for striped and bordered
effects has extended TO the most plebe-
ian of cotton materials-and very
pretty domestic cotton zephrys and
ginghams can be had for a trifiing
sum.
Black velvet ribbon in eight and
10-inch widths make striking sashes,
either tied with outstanding loops or in
butterfly effect; or again In only a
knot. caught perhaps with a buckle.
Many tailored Jackets have a little
finish Of white inside the collar for
the double purpose Of breaking the
hard line Of the cloth. and 10 act as
protection for the fine lace Of the
bodice.

Skirts are no longer plain. but show
double tunics or contrasting bands ot
black at the border edges. The hang
ing panel at the back is almost uni
versal. aud buttons are now more usu-

Colored striped muslins are now
considered smart-the red and white

High lace and net collars are, In
many instances, encircled by a band
of very narrow black velvet, finished
in the front with a rose OF satin
from which few green stems and
tiny buds extend down the front OF the
corsage
Many of the new negliges show
practically the same characteristics
as the dresses themselves, the more
elaborate being In empire and
straight-hne effects, with peasant
sleeves and draperies and tunics Of
diaphanous materials.
Parasals OF imported hand emhroid-
cred linen. with scalloped edges Of
plain taffeta silk. are charmingly orr
ginal One model Of solft black tat
feta has an outer cover Of white eye
let embroidery scalloped on the edges,
Just showing the rim Of black taffeta.
New corsets with moderately low
busts and a soft top finish. are now
generally worn with brassieres OF
various kinds which round out or hold
in the bust as the case may be and
also prevent the corset top from
showing through the corsage
Lace figures largely on this sea-

of heavy Russian hlet and Venise-
which finish so many Of the skirts at

are those Of imitation amethysts. en-

TRUE STORY OF WAR TIME
A TranspOsltiOn.
Mary Ella Michener Hopes.
An old man sat by the wayside;
His locks were turned to grey;
He was very worn and weary
So he brushed a tear away.
His thoughts were turning backward
To days long past ana gone
When he was lo5Sd and cherished
In his own ancestral home.
Now upon the wayside.
He must wander alone.
With none 10 comfort or cheer,
And no place to call home.
Move on" was the salutation
He received upon the street.
For be was called tramp"
BY all whom he did meet.
He slept in any nook or corner,
That sheltered him from the wind;
There passed his restless nights
Morning came, 1t was the same
again.
Come get along with you,"
Some one said. giving him a poke.
The policeman soon observed
He could not move, his leg was
broke.
Don't you see he can't get up?"
Said a sweet girl near at hand,
Whose sympathy had been awakened,
He cannot obey your command"
Where does he live? the same voice
said,
With a tremor in its tone;
With deep regret did he reply:
"Oh miss, l have no home"
To the hospital he was taken;
The ambulance was near at hand,
Where he was made as comfortable
AS possible, by a willing band.
His face lit up with happy smile;
When he was thoroughly bathed and
dressed:
Il feel that I'm in heaven the while"
He said. when laid on the bed to
rest
"I am so happy now
do not feel my pain;
And if I did I should not mind
A glimpse of paradise to find"
A heavy cold had settled on his lungs
Which ended in pneumonia,
And though so carefully cared for,
They knew that he must pass away.
The sweet young girl was still his
friend.
She stood beside his bed;
He thanked her for her kindness,
As she laid her hand upon his head.
He asked for book containing old
papers,
Which was in his coat pocket;
And when it was brought TO him
He took out gold chain and locket
Showing the papers unto the young
girl,
He asked her to keep them until he
was dead;
And to remember him as they pictured
him,
Not as she had seen him Cwhen the,
were read)
, Now the end being near at hand
The events Of his life before hin
passed.
In delirium he seemed to issue a com
, mand
To his men to stand calmly to thu
last.
It was discovered in the battle O.
Gettysburg
An officer Of rank he had been,
And with these words he fell bacl
! exhausted:
4 I'VE must rest, we need food, we arr
3 tired. hungry men,"
His mother and brother seem to wei
come him.
(They dreaded so to part)
q Then with outstretched arms he cries
/ my Mary" and pressed her TO hi
I heart.
Y While waiting still to hear
e What else he might have to say,
D with the words Mary" "Bennie,"
He passed from earth, away.
= We peeped into the gold locket.
He'd placed about his neck will
e care;
And there we saw a baby's curl,
And a lock of gold brown hair.
An officer of high rank,
In the late wSr he had been,
! (By the pagers this we learned)
! Respected by all those who knew
him.
= But misfortune had assailed him.
AZ And friends had proved untrue;
q And with the loss Of wife and child.
q He lost his courage too.
