A Philadelphia man suggests, as sub
stitute for the stamped envelope with re-
turn request in the corner, a special pos
tage stamp large enough to include a
name and address. They would be print
ed by the government and purchasers
would order them by the thousand, the
government printing the card or leaving
it blank as the purchaser might desire,
and selling them for something over the
regular price. The inventor seems to be
oblivious of the possibility that the can
ceiling stamp would effectually obliterate
the name and thus nullify the usefulness
of the device.

Resolutions of Respect to the hema;y
of John B. Stewart.

We always bow in the presence OF
death, wherever we meet it. The
universal otherhood ofman makes
us mourn with those bereaved, be
they friends or strangers; but when
a brother, friend and companion is
taken from us, the poor common
words OF sympathy seem mockery
and we can only bow in silent grief
before the mysteries of Gods prOvl-
dence.
And when this friend and COM
panion is a young man just stepping
into manhood with II e promise of a
successful life before him especially
does itseem hard that Death so soon
should have marked him for the
silent tomb.
But bowling to Gods decree we
gladly hasten to gather upthe roses
OF his life, and weaving them into
garlands, lay them at memory's
door, that whenever opened oul
tears may sprinkle them. Our hearts
we're saddened thus by the announce
ment of our President that John b
Stewart of Clinton was dead. We
pay this tribute to his memory; ne
was brave, honest, and manly. His
! College life was short, but he lett
none but friends behind him.
They, while they mourn his deati
will keep his memory green.
Thus acknowledging his worth, D.
it resolved.
LIST, That as students we have los
a friend.
End, That as Philomathesians w
have lost a brother and vaiuaDi
member. :,
3rd, That this society extend II
heartfelt sympathies to the family
father, mother, brother, and sister;
of the, deceased.
4th, That copy of these resoi'
, lions be sent to the family OF I'll
deceased, to the Clinton CAUcAsIA>
to the Wake Forest Student, anu
copy be spread upon the records

the small volume Of water required

dered new gin some time ago. Ii
came. When he unlocked it he was
surprised and mad to think that they
had sent him a piece of fine parlol
furniture instead Of the gin he had
ordered; but looking around it, i
looked like gin. 1t had wheels
saws, ribs and brushes. He though
he would try it; and sure enough, i
turned out to be veritable gin, ant
