When to Use Postal Cards

Nowadays people seem to have no time
for real correspondence, which should be
in every household and family one of the
most interesting elements A postal card
or brief note seems to suffice for the most
important occasion, and the increased
postal facilities make this sort of dis
patch" business easier. And here it NAV
be said that you should never write letter
to friend or a stranger on a postal card.
When you notify the ice man that your
mother will need an extra quantity of ice
on the morrow, or the coal dealer that the
cellar needs refilling, you may use postal
card, for this is a convenience to the ice
man and coal dealer, but avoid postal cards
for anything but the very simplest and least
private of messages. Young Peo-

Prince Abbas to the throne Of Egypt. "a

port was put in circulation to the effect
that Dr. Selim, one of the native physi-

ing his illness, had made fatal blunder
in administering an overdose of NOR
phine, and that when the ruler died and
the doctor realized the result of his mis-
take he had become terror stricken and
fed from the place and put an end to his
life. Upon investigation it was concln-

cation pure and simple. Samuel Briggs,
of Cleveland, O., imperial potentate,

of the Mystic Shrine of North America,
formally announcing the death of the
