JJid you ever notice a womau mailing a letter?" asked a postman, who ■was talking to an acquaintance on the street car. "Well, I don't care who she is, whether she's your wife or mother, she'll go up to the mailbox just as if it was an infernal machine, look all aronnd, and drop that letter in as if she wouldn't have anybody see her for the world. That's why soine man will always step up and offer to help her; he thinks she wants assistance. It's the same if a woman hands a letter to a postman - she'll act as if she hates to have it go out of her hands. " "How do you account for it?" "I don't try to account for it. It's like the way most women pay their car fare - as if they were most surprised to death at having to pay it at all, and then hanging on to it till the conductor drags it away. I guess it may be for the reason that girls aren 't raised like boys to do things offhand in a business way.
