several weeks ago a young woman at
haneville, Illinois, sent a letter to each
OF three friends, each copy being num-
bered one. she requested each re-
clplent to return the original letter with
cancelled stamps enclosed, and to make
three copies of the letter, numbering
each two, and sent it to friends with the
same request. The persons receiving
letter fifty were to make no copies, but
return the letters. The idea was to se-
cure a million stamps, which would Sc
cure treatment for a crippled woman.
The kaneville postoilice has since been
swampcd with mail, and mathematiciaps
have been distracted in endeavoring to
the result. Miss Nadia Curtis,
o. Great RAILS, has received number
forty-one, and has complied with the re-
quest, sending copies to three friends,
who will continue the chain.
