PRINT them on a large nand press. Three
i sets of these workers are kept con-
stantly employed in this manner. As
fast as the stamps are printed they are
| dried and then gummed with a starch
! paste made from potatoes. The paste
] is dried by placing the sheets Of stamps
in steam tanning machine. and then
\ the stamps are put into hydraulic
/ presses and subjected to a pressure
of two thousand tons. A girl
with large pair Of shears next cuts
the sheets in two. each sheet when cut
/ containing one hundred stamps. The
paper between the stamps is then per-
forated and after again being sub
iected 70 hydraulic pressure they are
filed away ready TO be sent out when
ordered. fla single stamp is injured
in any way the entire sheet Is burned.
The sheets are counted eleven time,
during the process Of manufacture to
prevent differing by employees.
The history Of postage stamps in this
country is so inseparablv connected
with the history of the postal system
that il is necessary 10 review the latter
in order TO understand how stamps first
came to he used II is almost incredi-
BILE that less than fifty years ago the
United States really had no postal svs-
TEN as we understand IL. Previous to
lS47 the mails were carried largely by
private firms, and rates of postage
varied according to the distance tray
ersed To send letter across the con-
tinent cost nearly as much as teIe-
graph message at the present dav.
And, though costly. the service was by
no means satisfactory. Much of the
mail matter was of necessity entrusted
To carriers on foot or horseback. and
their progress was Of course very slow.
Prior 10 the introduction Of the ad
hesive stamp. letters were sent either
paid or collect. at the option
OF the sender Under this svs-
TEN stamps were in little demand.
1t was the custom 70 mark prepaid
letters with paid mark" and each
Office was allowed to adopt design of
its own. The usual device was the
word paid, with the amount and the
addition of one or more stars. the
whole surrounded by circle. During
the first years of the late civil war this
old system was revived by the confed-
crate states, which were without
stamps. In some instances the or
binary date mark was altered. and !
thus the name of the town appeared
with the word paid and the amount
five or ten cents as the case might
be. This system was in vogue in the /
confederate states until about January 4
l, 1859, at which time they issued their
own stamps.
The Inconvenience Of this local"
system, as II was called. were so many
that, before the new issue of adhesive
stamps came out, a plan was devised to
furnish marked envelopes. The chief
objection to the paid" stamp was that
All mail had to be brought to the post
office TO be marked. This was obviated
by the envelope systematic govern.
ment marking the envelopes in advance
and selling them to consumers.
Returning 10 our narrative, we find
that in ls4o many of the post Offices had
'Asued paid stamps of their own. These
we're called provisional issues and

BENWOOD.

Twenty years ago BenwOod had bad.
name, and the question is, 'Is il much
better to-day?" In some ways it is bet
ter, but in others worse. Recently the
good people of the town have been
mortified by the practice Of absolute
women from Wheeling and Bellaire
coming 10 the town OF nights. Last
Friday night most disgraceful scene
transpired on Water street, nearly IN
the heart of the town, and within a
stones throw Of two churches and two
public school buildings. People living
there were awakened, aud saw on the
pavement about dozen Benw00d men
and two cyprians.s The scenes en-
acted were Of the most disgraceful and
depraved type. After 10 O'Clock stout
every night gang Of loafers parade in
the town and cause numerous COM
plants. II is high time TO call halt,
say the law-abiding citizens.
Last night, there was q pleasant soci-
ETY. gathering at the home OF Oliver
TIA bert, Of the lower ward. Miss OdeS-
sa, the charming host, gave a party to
her friends and twenty couples attend
ed. Guests were there from Wheeling,
this city and Bellaire, to the number OF
about twenty couples. The Banjo,
Mandolin and Guitar club of Wheeling
furnished music. Dancing was enjoyed
and an excellent luncheon was served.
The matter Of extensive street paw
ing is still in the hands o. the Com
mittee on Streets, Alleys ar ! Grades.
The committee is soon TO rel. TT 1t Is
proposed to pave Main street from
Schsd's corner to Deegan's store. No
Improvement in the city Is needed so
badly as this.
The committee Of three citizens dele
gated by the citizens to take charge OF
the twelve petitions, containing six
hundred names, asking Court for an in
ldependent school district, is busy with
The, work. There is little doubt but
that the independent school district will
be secured.
Farmers from roundabout are coming
70 Benwood stores fer cabbage these
days. This is something unusual.
