FROM "ADDRESS TO THE UNCO GUID" O yet whs are sae guld yoursel', Sae pious and sae holy, Ye've nought to do bat mark and tell Your neighbor's faults and folly. Whase life is like a weel gaun mill Supplied store o' water. The heapet tapper's ebbing still And stM the clap plays clatter Ye see your state wi' theirs compared And shudder at the niffer. Bat cast a moment's fair regard. What makes the mighty differ? Discount what scant occasion gave That purity we pride in, And (what's aft mair than a' the " lave) Your better art o hidin Then gently scan your brother man Still gentler sister woman; Though they may gang a kennln's wrang, To step aside is human; '' One point must still be greatly dark, ; The moving's why -they do it, . And just as lamely can ye mark How far perhaps they rue it. '"Who made the heart, 'tis He alone Decidedly can try us, tone, He knows each chord, , Each spring, its various bias; ,Then at;the balance let's be mute, We never can adjust it; What's done we partly may compute, But know not what's resisted. Robert Burns. THINGS QUIET. The middle of September usually finds Richmond people all returned from vacations and society functions well under way. Somehow or other this year the society whirl doesn't eeem to be ready to whirl. Whether it. was the cold .weather all summer or the warm days of the past week it is hard to Bay. September days are Just a Tittle on the social calendar and the month of October will be gladly welcomed when it comes Tuesday of next week. This time last year there were to be many brides but this season they are few and far between. There threatens to be a dearth of nuptial events, even in October. So far there have .only,; been t two weddings scheduled for the month. A . most important rone will ;be celebrated .Wednesday evening, October the second when Miss Myral Weeghman marries Mr. Walter CraigheadThis" wllbe a large church wedding and will be celebrated in the - Trinity Lutheran ohurch. Fall brides ; however will not be very numerous. - ' ,' " . Can it be because it is leap year? Or is It the election that affects even the wedding? Maybe some of these promising young politicians -don't dare to put the vital question until they find out just how many plums will be dropping. Or maybe the girls are holding off for fear of the old leap year accusation. The combination of leap year and election all in one season may be sufficient reason for the dearth in weddings and It really seems cruel to have both come at once. Some of the enterprising chaperones had better see to it that election year is swung away from the year with the extra February day. TO SERVE DINNER. The Central Aid Society of the First Christian church will serve dinner Wednesday in the church basement dining room. The hours will be from eleven thirty until one o'clock. The public is cordially invited to attend. Dinner will be served for twenty five cents. FOR HARVARD.

IMPORTANCE OF RURAL ROUTE DELIVERY

One of the Most Beneficent, but Worst Paid Departments of Governmental Activity. Carriers Furnish Their Own Horses and Wagons.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. The government has a funny way of running things. The post office department in instance. Everybody knows about Hitchcock's herculean efforts to make a record during his administration in cutting down the celebrated deficit. But his way of going about it seems more or less weird to the ordinary observer. Instead of eliminating Sunday service which is not done for humanitarian but for monetary reasons and levying on the advertising pages of the magazines by making them alter their manner of distribution much to the discomfort of the subscribers and through other various methods by which the public Is discommoded the average citizen would recommend them to weed out the franking system through which tons of reading matter that nobody reads and carloads of seeds that nobody plants are sent free round the country. Its the free transportation of this stuff that makes it necessary, if anythin6 18 done ln the ?f ncing the cost of running the department, j to cut down on the privileges that the i public does and should enjoy in the i way of mail service, j The franking privilege is a rather nice little graft it strikes the ordinary person. There are laws supposed to govern its abuse but it is abused. This column has animadverted more or less frequently upon the position of Mr. Theodore Roosevelt that the law should be administered according to the dictates of common sense. Now common sense would say that the reduction of the post office deficit might be materially reduced in the abolition or restriction of the franking privilege instead of at the expense of the public. Very few persons use the seeds. And fewer read the voluminous documents sent round without discrimination. The writer, in instance, has long received special bulletins from the Agricultural Department. While she feels flattered to be thus singled out it is the truth that she has rarely looked over these for the reason that her interests are not in this department of activity. She does not till the soil. Nor own a farm. And has only a general interest in the scientific aspects of farming. If these had been sent to a friend of hers who has taken a claim out West and now owns a 160 acre farm and is interested in getting the best results out of her land, there would be some sense in It. But the latter woman is not on the Agricultural Department's list. ' So there you are. In the meantime you can't get your j magazine until it is sent out from a distributing center nor any mail on Sunday no matter how Important It might be to you to get the latter. To be sure the delivery of mail on Sunday resolved Itself into a sort of general nuisance as lots of people haunted the delivery windows on Sunday who simply had the village obsession of going to the post office to see J if the mail had come in or stray to the station to watch the trains pass. And was a hardship on post office attaches. Its regulation was therefore desirable. But things can be. regulated too much. The one point upon which the pub lic's agreed, however, is the picayu nish attitude o fthe government to ward the rural route carrier. If ever there was a beneficent and popular movement started it was that of the delivery of mail to the country residents.. . The average rural route carrier is a local- Celebrity. -. And his advent looked forw.ard to with more eagerness than any other one phase, of, dally .life In the country, He is, however, generally badly paid. A few years ago he. received but $500 yearly salary and had to furnish his own wagon and horse. Later the salaries were gradually raised from $500 to $720. then to $900, then to $1000 and now to $1100. some itching;, unsightly skin vmi tJUrtrimr nnA cjyi i fhircr itching skin Try Resinol free pimple Reanaat Oaataoant arfth i Soap, la M ideal hwlmc hokl taanadr. not only for not iaap i wish nr akin hainnci. bat tor awca -non taaattea aa phnpata. n' "- drutL aaraa, boila. aleara.

ReoBol

That is, the maximum salary of

rural route carrier is $1100. All of them do not receive that much. And out of that they have to still pay for their horses and wagons. The best paid then, get something like $90 a month. It takes on the average $30 a month to care for their horses and wagons. While all have to furnish their wagons, the majority of them now hire livery horses, since it is a heavy expense to invest in a horse with the chance of the latter dying or becoming so disabled another animal will have to be secured. After the rural route salaries had been raised one hunddred dollars a year the price of the keep of horses also rose so that the carriers do not benelit in the least by the former. The celebrated high price of living gets In Its deadly work here as elsewhere. It strikes the average citiien that this is taking advantage of good nature and necessity, on the part of the governmental public service. The salaries of the rural route carriers have been forced up reluctantly until the former have reached the present maximum figure through the force of public opinion which recognlies the value of this civic institution to the social and business life of the community. If it had not been for this the maximum amount would have remained at $500. The hardest worked and poorest paid public servants are mail carriers both rural and city. And their services the most important to the public. And the public regards their salaries as totally inadequate.

The Junior partner relieved himself of n few abusive epithets, but presently after a brief pause he expressed the same sentiments couched in much milder terms. Said the Junior partner: There you go crawfishing again. Why cant you stick to what you said ln the first place T The Junior partner dropped the receiver. "Supposing you come and sty it yourself," he said. The senior partner did so. but after a little be, too, repeated bts harangue with all the backbone left out. "It's no use," he said. "You can't curse a man twice over the phone who answers your first outburst with I beg your pardon. I didn't quite catch that. Say it again, please.' That is Bailey's way.
