The West Jackson and East Beaver correspondent to the Kentland Democrat, devotes the following eulogy to A. M. Bringle, rural mail carrier on Route 1 out of* Fair Oaks: Abe Bringle, carrier on route 1, out of Fair Oaks, has scant in Ws day and generation. Abe has well and faithfully carried Uncle Sam’s mail for twelve years, traveling twenty-four long miles each day, for the dozen years, means quite a bunch of miles, as a little figuring will demonstrate. Since hitting the trail, as a carrier, Abe has delivered enough garden seeds and catalogues to housewives along his route to clog the Missis sippi river, and to blushing damsels enough concentrated sweetness, in the form of love missives, to stock a taffy factory. During the twelve years aforesaid Abe has sung every song in the United States, from “Greenland’s Icy Mountains,” to “Kickin’ My Dog Around,” and whistled every tune under the sun from “The Devil’s Dream” to “181 Flo Chivy.” He has learned to talk the Navajoe language with the natives of Colfax and pigeon English with the Huns and Lithuanians of west Jasper; he has had bestowed upon him by a grateful constituency about everything in connection with the daily dietary, from hog bosom to piccalilly and from Hubbard squash to gut sausage; he has been made the beneficiary of enough free advise to start four information bureaus, and he has explained five million, seven thousand and nineteen times that a mall carrier is only
human-—that he is not responsible lor the condition of the weather, high water or for the noh-arrival of letters, newspapers and, pamphlets which have never been placed in his care for delivery. Many Children Arc Sickly. Mother Gray’s Sweet Powders for children break up colds in 24 hours, relieve feverlhsness, headache, stomach troubles, teething disorders, and destroy wopms. At all druggists, 25c. Sample mailed free. Address, Allen S. Olmstead, Le Roy, N. Y.-—Advt.
