PUNMORE.
Many queries nro heard as to why It
Is necessary that nil the windows In the
postofllcc should be closed during the
distribution of tho several malls. A
person wishing to buy a stamp under
the present plan Is sometimes compelled
to wait a half hour before the distribu
tion Is completed and tho window open
ed. Tho running of Drinker street cars
through the corners at the speed at
which most of them now go Is going to
some day be fraught with serious con
sequences. In their eagerness to ge,t the
lights at the corner of Drinker and
Blaklcy streets the men forget the
safety of their passengers or that of
pedestrians. Should a enr coming
down Chestnut street and one coming
down Drinker street over meet on the
curve at what Is now ordinary speed,
It would certainly result In loss of life
and be a great monetary loss to the
company.

COMPLEX RELATIONSHIP.
The Tangle Made by Two Families
Straightened Out by a Lawyer.
From tho Nasltvlllo Banner.
Na3hvlllo has a lawyer, who besides
being a good lawyer has a penchant
for hunting up and solving Intricate
problems of genealogy. He said today
that ho had read most of those prob
lems which annually make tho rounds
of tho press, but some months ngo he
accidentally run upon ono of tho most
difficult cuses of this class right here
In Nashville, In the Valentino and Stin
nett families, clients of his. After
many hours of hard work the lawyer
solved, to his own satisfaction, the
family relationship, and he furnished a
reporter with tho solution, ns follows:
"Henry Vulontlno married Martha
Noble. They had flvo children, ono of
whom, Cora, married James Stinnett,
and they had seven children. Henry
Valentino's llrst wife died a number
of years ago, and he soon therafter
married her sister, Fannie Noble, und
they hud six children born to them.
"About threo yenrs ago Henry Val
entino died, leaving his second wife nnd
two sets of children, About ono year
ago Cora Stinnett, wlfo of James Stin
nett and daughter of Henry Valentine,
died leaving her husband and seven
children. Just ono month thereafter
James Stinnett married Fnunle Valen
tine. James Stinnett and his wife still
live together with his seven children,
her six children by Valentine, und her
live stepchildren of Valentine's.
"They live In Marks street and he
works at the E. & N, Manufacturing
company, Now, what relation Is James
Stinnett to hs wife's children? What
t elation Is Mrs. Stinnett to her hus
band's children? Whut relation is
James Stinnett to his wife's step.chll
dron? What relation Is his children to
her children and to her stepchildren?
"Stinnett is the stepfather of his
wife's children; he la also brother-in-law
to them because they wero half
brothers and sisters of his wife; he Is
nlso a cousin of theirs by marriage be
cause their mother and his wife's
mother were sisters; Mrs. Stinnett Is
the stepmother of his children; also a
great-aunt, as she was a sister to their
grandmother. Ills children aro broth
ers and sisters to her children, becauso
their parents aro husband and wife.
Ills children are stepchildren of hers;
they are also grandchildren because
she was the wife of their grandfather,
She Is likewise their great uunt because
the sister of their grandmother. He Is
his wife's husband; her step-sou-in-
