An Evening Gown.
Figure 2, on the left, is one OF my
pet evening gowns If you do not wish
to go to the extreme expense of an
elaborately beaded robe, you may use
my ideas in any supple clinging ma
terial. The long, round train adds
height; the drapery and tiny slit in
front make it easy to walk in a close
fitting and clinging gown. The lOng
at the back of the gown will add to
the apparent length of your waist. The
cap shaped sleeve permits you to show
your white shoulder without sacrifice

another move planned to follow it. We
shall go on, step by step. 1 know
just what I am going to do; the next
step will be made at the soonest pos

VIII Not Kill Express Companies.
How about the express companies?
Are you going to drive them out Of
busineSs2'
"The express companies wifi have
plenty to do in the carrying of packages
of large size and weight. They will
have to give way to the government
as to small packages There is no in
diVidual concern that can compete with
the government. There is not the slight
est doubt about >that. We are going
to do the small package business Of the
United States.
1.-The parcel post business is steadily
increasing, and that is so of every de-
partment related to our mails We are
now handling from 24,000,OO0,0O0 to
25 900 100000 packages of mail
year, and we have the largest trans
portation service in the world. Our
system of parcel transportation is larg
er than that of any express company
and il is just at its beginning.
In the first six months we handled
more than 3OO,OOO,OOO parcelfpOSt pack
ages. With the increase in the weight
limit and the reduction of the rates
the increase will be accelerated, and
1 estimate that by the time the year is
closed we shall have handled 100000
600 packages. We are doing much to
help the business along. One thing is
the change as to tfrS stamps So that any
kind of postage stamps can be used TO
send a parcel post package. Another
is in the use of precanceled stamps
1t cost something to put the stamps on
$50. 600, 900 packages and TO cancel them
BY hand is an extremely difficult pro-
cess We can cancel the stamps on
letter mail by machinery, but we can
not do that on packages, which are OF
all shapes and sizes. We have figured

FOSTalS savings Bank8-
What are you doing as to the postal
savings banks
ave have 40 or so millions Of dol
lars now on deposit The system was
established only a little more than two
and oHe-half years ago, and IL is now
in operation in more than a12.006 post
offices and at about zoo branches and
stations The SOth of June last the de-
pOsitOrs numbered $50, zoe, and their de-
pOsits then We're approximately $50
600, 600. All this comes from class OF
people who were making no effort to
economic and save before the postal
savings banks were established. II
comes from many who were too timid
to put their money in the regular banks,
or who were so afraid Of the banks that
they would not trust them with their
SevlngS. They kept them hid under
the hearthstOnes or perhaps in a tin
can or a stove, and the result was the
loss of hundreds of thousands OF dol
lars every year We have plans to in
crease the facilities Of the postal saw
ingS banks. and in a short time we shall
have 100000, 600 OF such deposits. and
that without taking from the savings
banks of the country as much as one
percent of their former returns The
postal savings banks are patrOnized
largely by foreigners They have con-
fidence in their home governments, and
therefore have confidence in ours. A
considerable part of the many million
dollars which has been annually going
to Europe in money orders will now re-
main here in the postal savings banks

Luna Hearn.

Who was he? Only a big black
negro with a kindly heart, and
ready and willing at all times to
do a friendly act and to lend a
helping hand to those in need.
The writer knew him long ago
when he was but a boy-a tall
awkward negro boy-big enough
to 'chop cotton" and with a
few words of encouragement
from the white folks" he usual
ly carried the leading row.
Luna was unlettered, which
misfortune he charged to the
neglect of an "old white gentle
man" to whom he went to school
until he wore OUT his spelling
book. He prided himself upon
the fact that he was born and
reared in Caldwell parish, and
that he had never been before
the courts upon any charge. He
was instinctively honest, and Of
ten quoted the Scriptures to car
ry his point in an argument. He
was a firm believer in the doc
trines of st. John the Baptist,
and often gave his version of the
writings of St. Paul. He believ-
ed that after death his soul would
be at rest. We hope it is.
The big black form has been
laid low, and his voice hushed
forever, but the travelling public
who pass that way will surely
miss his husky call of "All aboard
for down town..
May his ashes rest in peace.
