our own evil brood that we must learn

It la surprising how many letter oass
through the mail In Astoria marked,
"rush," "in haste," "hurry" and bear
ing similar admonition. Of course
these markings make no difference in
the handling of the letter, nor are they
delivered one minute sooner on thi ac
count, but the custom is a porfectly
harmless one and a long a it seems to
add to the comfort and satisfaction of
the sender we suppose It will continue.
Some persons, however seem to think
that such a legend on the addres aide of
tiie envelope will take the place of a spec
ial delivery stamp, which cost ten cents.
and insure the immediate delivery of
the letter on arrival at the poetotiice to

Nothing show more clearly the recog
nition of the kinship of men than the

blow ha (alien where it wa least ex
pected, aud the uncertainty as to where
it will next be aimed draw from all a
recognition of common danger a well
