A Self Poet


Here's a story about Mark Twain
that has only just come out through
the offering for sale Of an autogra phi
letter of the humorist.
The joyous Mark was possessed OF
kindness towards the literary aspir-
ant-a kindness that made him shrink
from telling what might be the brutal
truth.
On one occasion a self-made poet.
painting for praise, sent the humorist
poen-poor in thought and v1llainous
In execution-asking him to write a
short criticism on it. The poem, by
the bye, was entitled Failing Snow
fakes"
Time passed and Mark remained
mute on the subject Of that verse: in
fact, he was silent so long that at
length the poet sent a rather curt re
quest for the return Of his precious
masterpiece.
The answer he received was this.
MY dear young friend:

RAILWAY TERMINAL
POST OFFICES PLAN,
Department Expects to Re-
duce Expenditures for tt e
Railway Car Service by
This Means.

Washington, Dec. 21.--The report OF
Sesond Assistant Postmaster General
Stuart made public tonight disclosed that
the post office department expects to re-
duce the increased expenditures for rail
way car service by railway terminal post
offices.
During the last year, says the report
large amount of additional car space
was required on mail trains because OF
the establishment of the parcel post sys-
TEN. That the extension of the service
necessitated a considerable increase in
the annual expenditure for car rental is
shown in the statement that from Janu-
airy to Nov. %. 1918, there was a net
increase of 51,072.69. Mr. Stuart eS
pects however, to reduce these expendi-
lures by instituting the recommended
changes. The report shows that the cost
of operating rail, ocean, river, lake
street car, screen wagon, pneumatic tube
and mail messenger service during. the
year ended June so last was $50, 102, 2S7 "a
This sum will be increased for the cur.
rent fiscal year approximately s10,oo0,000
