Fast Delivery
Published Jan 01, 1900
A woman took a package to the post office to mail and was told it would cost $2.40 for fast delivery or $1.30 for slower service. "There is no hurry," she told the clerk, "just so the package is delivered in my lifetime." He glanced at her and said, "That will be $2.40, please."
