“Dear Herald; What has got the

can’t get here on time like before?
Sometimes it doesn’t get here at all.
Please give it a little harder start
aud may be it will come.”
Dear Mr. Herd, the Herald Is
mailed to your address every week,
and if it fails to reach you the blame
rests on Uncle Sam’s shoulders.
Some of his subordinates are very
deficient, you know! '
