STAMP SAVINGS BANKS.
A Novel Scheme in the Boston Public
Schools.

A Boston special says: II is proposed
TO Introduce the stamp savings bank, or

system, into the kOstOn public schools,

The system, which Is under the charge
of society Of the same name, has for
its object the encouragement Of the say.

There are branches established IN
schools or factories. wherever one per-
son can be found who viii be RESPONSE
bic for the money, aud who, by virtue
of his work, which by the way, Is vel
untary, Is called treasurer. This local
treasurer obtains FROM the central office
as many stamps and stamp cards as he
thinks he Is likely Go have deposit0rs.
10 each person wishing 10 become a de

A Patent Postage Stamp.

About the last thing that one would
think OF patent,ng seems to be posts
age stamp, but bright Virginian has
thought of that and patented a device
for ore too. The idea is ic'ple
enough. 1t is merely this: Dis,
continue the manufacture of stamps
of an obi denomination and let

stamps, Tor instance, 10 com
posed of two small one>c.nt
stamps, perforated down the middle,
with the figure 2 over the perforated
line. Their you buy only two cent
stamps, and wien you want one-cen.
stamp separate two. The two stamps
as a uni, are not as large rs one of
the Columbian stamps now IN use.
With these stamps it is an easy
matter to make the proper charge. I,
will also prove much more economical
t, the government, for it will reduce
the contracts one half. There arc
many other advantages which will
presen, themselves to tho public.
