VOICES OF THE PRESS.
100000 Times Careless.

While the American public is exer-
cising greater care in preparing mail
matter it still is much too careless,
and inexcusably so. in this respect.
During the last fiscal year. accord
ing to Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General Blakeslee, more than 13,000,-
000 letters and parcels found their way
into the Dead Letter Office. OF this
number $4,000 pieces We're restored
to their rightful owners.
These figures. large as they are,
show the fraction of per cent. of i'm
provement as compared with the past
few years. But that the number Of
letters which go to the Dead Letter
Office should be SO enormous indicates
need for reform of our siipshop
methods. A little more pains taken in
addressing mail matter and putting
your own address On it for return in
case of non delivery would work Won
ders. Include this in your New Year

Grammar and the Press.

In the midst of heavier concerns, it is
pleasant to indulge in warfare with
those who hurl Javelins against our use
of English. Some weeks ago number
of papers were ironical because the edi-
tor of this paper wrote letter in which
he used the expression: You are man
newspapers that felt called upon TO COM
plain of this construction was the Col
umbia Record which observed, I'VE
hope he do" Another inauired severely,
Times asked if the editor of ''Har-
pers Weekly" can. keep his grammar
on straight, who CAM" Even the schol-
arly editorial page of New York World
protested At that moment, although
our instinct was strong, We had no time
to go through enough English literature
to prove the case. Here, however. are a
few examples that may convert some OF
eur learned contemporaries:
From Carlyle, Past and Present:
Thou art an unreasonable mortal; or
rather art a poor infinite mortal, who
in thy narrow clay prison here seemest
so unreasonable"
From Longfellow. "Flower-de-Luce"
Thou art the Muse who far from
crowded cities,
Huntest the sylvan streams"
These quotations have been verined
but there is one from Macauley which
we have not been able to find, although
we are rather confident that it Is correct
ly remembered:
do your own kline to death.
What would our critics answer? Per-
haps that Carlyle, Longfellow and Ma
cauley did not know how to write-Har-
pers Weekly.
Dear Harper's: If you have not pre-
viously noted that the average news
paper writer's grasp of analysis goes
as far as familiar sound. and no far
Their, you have missed some fun. If
you had said: You are man who
does his own thinking" it would have
got by And yet you would hardly
nor would the New York World
directly address a man with: You
does your own thinking" or You,
who are man. does your own think

But the who do" (hoodoo) caught
them; it rasped the bundle Of trite
sayings and expected construction.
