Convenient Type of Mail Box for Home Use

A person having a mail box set flush in the outside wall of his home can, with a little alteration, make it accessible from inside the house: After removing the back side of the box a tin extension should be soldered to the box giving it sufficient length to reach through the wall in which an opening of the proper size has been cut. The enlarged container is completed by adding a glass door to the inner end which enables one to ascertain its contents at a glance.—A. Pertle, Chicago, Ills.
