Baby Postage Stamps.

Letters which have recently arrive,
from Spain have borne a new postage
stamp, marked with the olgy of III;
King of Spain, Don Alfonso XIII
The fact ia itself is nothing reInar.-
able, since the postage stamps in everI
monarchical country bear the portrai
of its monarch. Dut the fact that TIN
King is less than four years old, having
been born May Ia, 1856, and the fur
ther fact that the stamps of the king
dom have been marked with his effigl
but a short time, makes the circum
stance an interesting one, SAYS tlIt
Youths Companion. Never before
we believe, has postage stamp born,
the portrait of baby monarch. There
have been many child potentates, bu
Don Alfonso XIII. Is the first baby
who has reigned over a European
country since the introduction OF
tie use of postage stamps.

the postage stamp almost as much {
necessity Of life as food or raiment, l.
seems hard to believe that 40 year
have not yet gone by since postag'
stamps cdIne INTO geHeraI use III LuIOpt
and the United States.
No doubt this new baby stamp OF
Spain will be sought for, at leasl
for time, by thousands of staml
collectors for its novelty. II is quite
sure, however, to become com
mon. But within q few year,
Don Alfonso, growing so old that he
may fairly claim to be "quite a bis
boy" will need new postage stamp:
and then, perhaps, another and still
another before he has become a man

stamps will possess a record in postage

babyhood to manhood.
