Attempts to defraud the government
ia the matter of postage stamps is not
at all uncommon, Only few days ago
letter was mailed in the Pasadena
Office (stampted with the upper and
lower halves of two Columbian Btamps
ingsniously joined. the other halves,
presumably cancelled, having been
cleverly removed. At casual glance
it would be difficult to detect that the
stamp had been tampered with, but up.
on measurement it was tride smaller
than the perfect stamp. The author OF
the deception was easily traced and
called upon to make suitable separation
TO Uncle Sam for an attempt to dsfraud
him.
