You cauuot regard any letter you may ead through the post as being private. The government baa a legal right to open any letter or parcel pass ing through the post and la also en titled, of course, to use any Informa tion thus obtained In furtherance of the Interests of the law. At one time the official and secret opening of "pri vate" letters was of such common oc currence that poatofnee employees were eut to France to take lessons from an expert In the art of opening and re seating letters. In 1812 the postmas ters of Manchester. Nottingham aid Glasgow were Instructed to "open all such letters as should appear to be of a suspicious nature and likely to con vey seditious Information." and so re cently as fifty years ago there was au agitation to deprive the government of the light to open letters passing through the post The agitation failed, however, so that your letters are still liable to be opened, und the law would be on the side of the official opener.

With his won derful brown eyes he can see the faint est trail where a suake has zigzagged through the dry uioss and leaves. At nighttime his broad nostrils take up the chase, and, stooping down among the bushes, with a tough forked stick In his baud to support him, he follows the track as unerringly as a blood hound. When he runs a snake to earth. If he cannot surprise It In the open and kill it by a sudden blow of his stick, he squats over its hole, making, a low hissing or whistling sound with his Hps. Soon the snake puts Its head out of the hole uml peel's round. In an In staut the forked stick descends and fixes it to the ground by the neck, and the black fellow, seizing it behind the head, so that it cannot bite him, drags It out of the bole and either twists its head off or pounds it on the ground till Its back U broken. Humanity and Marhlaerr. Machinery is the cornerstone of mod ern society, the very foundation on which law, science, ethics, the arts, even the state itself, rests. It Is so new that we do not yet know Its poetry. We do not yet understand. Only two generations have lived be tide the highway of steam; only one has seen the Bessemer converter trans form the blacksmith Into the master builder of ships and towers. The sew ing machine, the far speaker, the type writer, nre common things of today, ac cepted as a matter of dally conven ience, and yet are they teachers of the people. Machines that come close to our lives and homes Inseuslbly teach truth, precision, the adjustment of uni versal laws to human needs, respect for that wise Amcrlcau Idea that labor saved is labor released for high er and nobler toil., The machine Is the bead master of the high school of the race.
