Among basiness'men it is sometimes necessary to cut the signature from a letter and psste it on the envelope in the hope that somebody may be able to desiph- er it when it reaches the post-office from which it was sent. In many signarnres there is a good deal of af- fectation. People should get into the habit of writing their signatures so legibly that he who runs may read. The signature is something that everj man who writes at all writes often enough to be able to write plainly. Why, then, should he seek to tangle it up BO that nobody can tell what it is?
