The number of money orders and postal
notes issued and cashed each day, as indi-
Gated above, is an important item, and it is
ascertaned that the total money transac-
tons of the office for 1887 reached the snug
sum of 81 1895, 1907 SO. The business of the
Money-order Department of the office in
creased from S599,562 IL in 1886 10 S647, :
$40 60 in 1897, a gain of S48, 1873 50, while
the postal-note fund increased from SAB
SOB 80 in 1886 to S40,715 16, an increase of
S., 900 II.
The increase of the clerical work of the
office from this large gain in orders issued
and cashed is of considerable moment, as
each order has to be entered four times
The work OF the Office has therefore so far
increased, out of proportion to the number
of employees. that during the recent holi-
day season Postmaster Stephens employed
extra help and paid for it out of his own
pocket, in order that all mail matter
should be handled promptly and delivered
at once, or forwarded by the first mail af-
ter deposited in the office Quite personal
outlay was thus made by the Postmaster,
and it is believed that the Postof1ice author
tiles at Washington will soon see the neces-
sity of granting an addition to the present
force.

OUR INCREASING TRADE.
Further Gratifying Facts by the Record
of the City Postoffice.


of the City Postoffice.
Occasion was taken a few days since to
show in these columns the increasing trade
and prosperity of Sacramento, by giving
comparisons of the receipts and remittances
of the city postofice for the last quarter of
1887 and the corresponding quarter of 1856,
the year previous. The facts thus shown
were striking and extremely gratifying to
all interested in the business outlook and
prosperity of the city. 1t is believed, how
ever, that the extent of the money trans
actions through the local postoffice is not
realized by the people generally nor by the
business men themselves.
An examination of the records of the
Postoffice shows that the number of Post
office orders and postal notes, both issued
and paid is very large. Thus, single days

December, is shown by the cash book as

have now in course of construction,

is sold at $2s; with large stems on keel,

the opinion prevailed that cigars could be

be sold direct to the retailer, thus saving to

The plan worked from the start. Dealer and

The Nobleman and the sweep.

Father Ignatius, preaching in London,
told the following story: Not very long
ago nobleman in Belgravia, as he was
passing from his door to his carriage,
encountered a sweep who had been
sweeping his chimneys, and the sweep
had the courage to look up and say:
''Have you the wealth of Christ's sal
vationp" Two months later the noble
man was dying, and he sent for this
sweep, and from him received the
knowledge Of God by the power of the
Holy Ghost. The nobleman wept for
joy, and as he died fell asleep in tho
ark OF the covenant, possessed of the
unsearchable riches of Christ. This,
said Father Ignatius, was a perfectly
true story, and he had related it as an
illustration because he wanted to bring
home to their hearts the poverty of the
world.

him without giving him a patting, if
not hugging. The fact that he was
a bloodhound and of remarkable size
made some people strangers to his dis

was nothing to justify the fear. He
was the essence of gentleness, and

here be pleased to term pedal paralysis,
or chronic encrustation of the feet, and
in that event the feet must be dipped
in hot water, not too suddenly or toe
frequently, 50 as to surprise the feet,
but gradually, say every fortnight, till
they become accustomed to their novel
surroundings; then every week, and ul.
tima,ely daily.
