GOT A LETTER
K atie Is a little girl Just four years
»Id. One morning her Auut hue took
her to the iioatofflce. They do not live
In a city where th»> letter carrier» bring
the mall to the house«, but In a large
town where all have to go to the poet-
Iffice to get their mail.
W hin they reached the office Auut
But- asked the clerk at the window If
there was a letter there for her. H e
went back Into the room and looked.
Pretty soon he came back and said:
“Yes, there Is one for you,” aud gave
It to her. Then they weut home, and
Aunt Sue read her letter.
One day about a week after that Ka-
tie was feeling very lonesome. There
was uo one she could play with, and
slio had played alone until ijihe w as
tlrixl. Aunt Sue had gone to the city
for a day. All at once Katie thought:
“Oh, I’ll go down to the ¡»ostofilce nnd
get a letter. That will be such nice
fun.”
She knew where the postolflce was,
and as the town was n quiet one she
was often allowed to go as far ns that
alone. She took her smalleat dolly with
ber for company anil started out. When
she came to the office she went up to
the window. For quite a little w-blle
|he clerk did not know she was there.
She was so small that her head did not
come up to the window, and ho could
not see her.
By and by be heard some one say In a
very small voice, “Mister.”
’Hien the clerk went to the window
and snw Katie and said:
“What do you want, little woman?"
He was a very good natured clerk and
liked little boys and girls.
“If you please, sir,” said Katie, ”1
want a letter.”
"What Is your name?” nuked tho
clerk.
"Katie Bishop.”
“Oh. yes,” the man said, and went
and looked In the boxes. Then he came
and told Katie there w as no letter for
her that day.
So she had to go home without any.
All the tim e ahe was wondering what
the reason was that «he could not get
a letter like Aunt Sue. After awhllo
she thought:
., / ’Perhaps they have to buy them- the
same as they do candy. I’ll go and
see.”’
Now,’ that vary morning Aunt Sue
bad given Katie a cent for doing an er­
rand for ber, and this cent, strange to
say, was not yet spent, but was safe
at home.
Katie went home, got the money and
came hack to the office. The clerk was
at the office this time, nnd she put her
money upon the shelf, saying:
“Please, mister, If you can buy a let­
ter for a cent I want one.”
When he heard that the clerk laugh­
ed and aald:
"No, you can’t buy a letter for a cent,
but you can take your money and go
down to the store nnd buy some candy.
Then If you stop when you come back
I rather think there will be >a letter
here for you.”
So Katie did as he said, and when
she came back. In about ten minutes,
sure enough, there was a letter In a
real envelope, directed In u nice, plain
band, to “Miss Katie Bishop.” In the
envelope whs a lovely curd with a pic­
ture and some verses on it.
Where do you suppose It could have
come from?—Philadelphia Ledger.
