/ know Of no way In which this can
be better accomplished than by the
use OF special postage stamp for let

Offices. This stamp should be Of the
denomination of ten cents, and, when
affixed u a letter, In addition to the
proper hostage charge, should insure
for Ii US speedy delivery rs possible
after its reception at any letter-carrier
Offlca. This outside distribution could
be effected by employing messenger
boys, at small salary, and In such
