sures it's immediate return to the sender instead

SAME PRICE AS PLAIN ONES, with only the
additional cost of the die which will last for years.

tisement, sure to attract attention oalthrough
whose hands it may pass.
The following is list fprices for dies en- graved
on brass, and Of envelopes of the usual letter size
