Imitation United States Custom
STAMPS Not Allowed.

Imitation United States Custom
Stamps Not Allowed.
Under the regulations of the Commits
sioner of United STATES Internal Revenue,
pursuant to the amendment of June 6,
1872, the use of imitation customs stamps
is declared to be felony and renders the
parties using them liable to fine of not
less than 500 nor more than 81 900, and
Imprisonment for period not shorter than
six months nor exceeding three years.
The regulations signed by Commissioner
Douglas and attested by George S. Bout
well, Secretary, say on pages 30 and 50,
1.-THE practice has become quite prevalent
in some districts of affixing to boxes con-
tanning domestic cigars, stamps made in
the similitude or Likeness of the customs CT
gar stamp: Notice is hereby given that this
practice must be Immediately discontinued
and all persons having in their possession
cigars with such imitation stamps affixed
will remove them before selling or offering
the cigars for sale, or abide the penalties of
the ld,U."
This imitation stamp is cunning device
to make people believe they are buying i'm
ported cigars, and its discontinuance will
abate a fraud too generally practiced by
eastern manufacturers to the detriment of
the home maker of cigars; its light blue
color is not so dark as the genuine
stamp from which it differs most materially
in having near the ends the words "For
United States customers" the genuine
stamp being ''United States customs" The
picture of Gen. Grant is lighter also, and
not as distinct, but the E Pluribus URaull,
shield and ornamental works are exactly as
those on the genuine stamps. The penalty
is severe, and in order to punish the guilty
and not the innocent, this law should be
published by the Government. -..-.

SuperHuous Flesh.

Halls Journal of Health says: 'ENot long
ago gentleman of three score, who had
hardly ever been sick in his life, thought he
was too feshy, and began to Bantamize.
He succeeded famously, and boasted to bis
friends that he / ad got rid of ten pounds in
a few weeks. A little later he was attacked
with painful and dangerous malady, from
which he has been suffering more than a
year. If man can sleep soundly, has a
good appetite, with no unpleasant remind
ers after meals, the bodily habits regular
every day, be had better leave himself alone
whether he is as big as hogshead, or as
thin and dry as a fence rail. Several cases
of Bright's disease have been reported by
medical men # reputation as a direct
result of practicing Bantam's plan for get
ting lean. The very best and safest way to
get rid of fat is to work it off. This NAV
be aided by eating food which contains a
large amount of nitrogen and a small
amount Of carbon. Nitrogen food is that
which gives strength, power to work, as
lean meats; carbOnaceous foods are those
which make fat, such as cheese, potatoes,
rice, corn, peas, beans, tapiOca, arroWroot,
milk, sugar, syrup, and all oily
and fat food. Raw fruit and berries largely
eaten are great ends TO reduce weight. But,
after all, the great reliance should be on
exercise and work in the open air. Bar
clay, the great Englishpedestrian who per-
formed greater feats than Weston, lost ten
pounds in two or three days walking, and
was never the worse for it."

Sunday School Concert at HObsOn
Chapel,

sunday .ScDOO1 concert at hOOSOn
Chapel.
To the Editor of the Union and American:
You may, perhaps, have heard of Hobson
Chapel-a handsome but unassuming
church, situated in a charming grove not
far from the first toll gate on the Gallatin
pike This church is now nnder the pastO-
raj charge of Rev. j. W. Hill, and connected
with it is one of the most interesting and
pleasant Sabbath Schools in the whole
Methodist Church South. OF this school
Prof. Geo. d. Hughes, principal of the
Edgefeld Male Academy, is superintendent.
Having often heard it spoken of in very fat
tering terms, very cheerfully accepted an
invitation to be present on last Friday night
at one of its regular quarterly public con-
certs.
The character of the exercises was entire
ly different from anything have ever seen
and they we're strikingly beautiful and i'm
pressive throughout. They consisted mainly
Of colloquial, vocal and responsive recita-
tions by classes and collections of scholars,
handsomely grouped and ingeniously ma
nouvered on a platform tastefully arranged
and beautifully decorated with evergreens,
flowers, and other devices. Ali these were
intersparsed with excellent music by the
school assisted by a select choir with an oc-
casional defamation or dialogue, the whole
forming feast of pleasure to the eye, ear
and heart that will never be forgotten.
An infant class recitation, conducted by
one of the loveliest daughters of our
county, was perfect gem in itself, and
moved the hearts of the entire audience
with emotions of the utmost tenderness
The recitation of that class alone was
worth going to hear.
The principal feature of the occasion,
however, was the presentation Of the BAN
ner aid other prizes to the classes that had
won them III the last three months contests
Rev. r. K. Brown, pastor of Tulip Street
Church in Edgefeld, delivered these prizes
with an appropriate address.
Great credit is due Mr.. D. 3. Gally, one
of the teachers, for his zeal in getting NJ
these concerts.
Conspicuous among the officers and
teachers of this interesting school | noticed
our friends D. Z. Gally, ?. W. Maxey and
Isaac Litton, who, to their other quail
fcation as good citizens, was glad to see
add that of being Jealous and efficient Sab
bath-school workers.
This concert was given for the purpose
of raising funds for the purchase of a new
library, and although hastily gotten up and
not all advertised, must have realized quite
a handsome sum. Yet, in view of the I'M
usual value and variety of the perform
ance, ! could not but regret that many
more Of our people had not enjoyed the
pleasure of witnessing it.
There is a very general desire on the
pert of all present to have the concert re-
peated, and would be glad TO learn that
the school has consented to do so.
