THE POPULAR GOLDENROD.

Coming sometimes as early ms June,
they herald Flora's richest pageant.
Then they are lomon-sroen; bat they
glow brightest when the cones of the
sumachs begin to garnet, when the au-
tumnal daudelions burn, when the car
dinnl flowers flame by waters which re-
fleet their vivid jets, and the cream
white silk Of the nilkweeds floats through
the air and disappears like steam and
smoke. Then. to quote John 9. Van
Dyke, the Eodenrods are q clear, lum-
nous chrome yellow--a color that holds
as a distinct hue for perhaps IA greater
distance than any other In natures

with fields of stubble and clover after
math, when the winds have put out the
lights of most of the flowers. the golden
rods become faded and rusty. but con-

A STEP BACKWARD.
New Law Prohibits Distribution Of
Mail ON sunday,

a recent law governing the post
Offices of the country which forbids
OFFICES of the first and second classes
opening on Sunday for the purpose of
delivering mail is arousng a strong
protest in New York and other States
ana may affect Burlington. The law
provides that the carriers windows.
lock boxes and general delivery win
dows shall be closed AMI that not n
piece of mail shall find its way to It's
destination on Sunday unless 1t bs
sent by special delivery. The officials Of
the local postoffice have written to the
department explaining that the situa
ton in Burlington calls for the dis
tribution of mail on Sunday mornings
and are now awaiting decision
meanwhile mail will be handled as in
the past
The law was passed last June, Con-
gresham Riley of Connecticut being
one OF the chief instigators. It has
for it's object the minimizing of the
work to be placed on postal clerks on
Sunday, but 1t is not known that any
of the clerks have in any way been
interested in the move.
For many years the Burlington post
office, in common with others Through
out the country, was open for an hour
Sunday morning and delivery Of mail
was made from the carriers windows to
those calling for It, Some months ago
| this custom was abolished, but mail was
placed in lock boxes for those who rent
cd them. This proved a great conven-
fence 10 many and did not seem to add
much to the Sunday work of the en-
ployes as It was necessary for them TO
open the mail pouches and search for
special delivery letters. Many will re-
gard the new law n step backward
in department of the government which
was created and exists for the bene-
| fit and convenience of the American
people.
Burlington business men have been In
the habit of arranging their mail SC
| that orders received Sunday could be
| filled the ilrst thing Monday morning
| The large number of travelling men II
town have been able to map out theii
weeks work so that they could get al
early start Monday morning, instead OF
wasting half day or more.
The law, if It goes into effect here
will make no difference in the collections
and Is simply directed toward the De
livery Of mail.
