ABOUT POSTAL CARDS.
There Are Eight Thousand Varieties in tn,
World.

World.
1t seems almost incredible that there
should be eight thousand varieties Of
postal cards, but that is the extent
claimed for collection. These, how
ever, include various issues of the same
nation and denomination, and also
cards issued for special occasions.
Postal cards have been in circulation
little less than twenty-five years. The
idea originated with DR.. Emanuel Har-
mann, professor of national economy
at the Imperial academy of Wiener, in
Neustadt, lower Austria.
His ideas, under the head of New
Means of Correspondence by Post"
were published and attracted the at
tention of the government officials.
The director-general of posts took up
the idea and succeeded in having an
issue of postal cards put in circulation
in 1862 The original name given to
them was the ''correspondez karte,"
and this has been retained ever since.
This new move on the part of Austria
quickly excited other countries to
adopt similar method of correspond
ence and before the close of 1870
nearly all the European countries were
using cards.
Germany was really the second coun-
try to employ them, and special series
was issued to the soldiers engaged in
the Franco-German war; These were
called the field-post correspondence
cards, and were sold unstamped to the
soldiers at the rate of about five for
half-penny. The soldiers had the priv
ilege of using them without paying
postage.
Another series was issued for civil
ians. These had a place left for
stamp, and the writer had to atfix
German postage stamp to the card be-
fore posting. The field postcards are
now rare, the used ones being scarcer
than the unused ones.
Another card of equal rarity. and
also a reminder of the same war, is the
balloon postcard, issued by France
during the siege of Paris. The cards
were sent up from Paris in balloons,
and the mail bags were thrown off into
the surrounding country, where there
was the least possible opportunity OF
their capture by the enemy.
They were smaller than the post
card now in use, and were covered
with war-like expressions as Paris de-
fies the enemyr' GLORY and conquest
signify crimes, defeat signifies hate
and desire for revenge" only one
war is Just aud right-that for sSde- |

HINTS FOR EMERGENCIES.
If You Can't Get the Thing You Want Use
the Thing You Can Get.

If You Can't Get the Thing You Want Use
the Thing You Can Get
A well-equipped medicine cupboard
should be supplied with poultice bags
of various sizes. They should be sewn
on three sides and a threaded needle
placed with them, so that the fourth
side may be quickly stitched. The SUI
periority of a bag over loose cloth,
such as is generally used, will COM
mend itself to all In England, where
linseed is the universal remedy
for colds, flannel bags are used. A
hint to the inexperienced is that lin
seed, or flaxseed (they are the same),
should not be boiled when it is to be
placed next to the flesh. When used
in bag boiling may serve to keep it
hot longer, but the process causes it to
cake.
The ability to find substitute for
the remedy which is not at hand is a
valuable faculty, and it often happens
that odd bits of information stored
away in the brain come to mind when
most wanted Therefore, these substi-
tutes used by others are given place.
In the south yellow cornmeal is FREE
quently made into a poultice, where
only heat is required. One who was
in the habit of using this, and found it
impossible to procure when away from
home, substituted oatmeal, and with
equally good results. Likewise,
quick-witted woman, who was without
a hot-water bag, took a can of to-
matoes which happened to be in the
house, heated it thoroughly, and used
it with good effect. 1t seemed much
safer expedient than the bottles SO
often brought into requisition. 10,
too, a physician in hotel in Germany,
being called in for case of brain fe-
yer, lost no time in sending for appli-
ances, but ordered a dozen bottles of
mineral water, in siphons, to be
brought to him, and with these pro-
ceeded to douche the head of the pa
tient.-N. Y. Sun.

LINCCLN's APPARiTIoN.

] He Saw Ghostly Image OF Himself In n
| Looking Glass.
On the day mentioned, Lincoln mar
rated an incident the particulars of
which ! wrote out and printed directly
after. These are his own words, as
nearly as they could then be recalled
1T was just after my election in
1860, when the news had been coming
in thick and fast all day and there had
been great 'hurrah, boys SO that
was well tired out, and went home to
rest, throwing myself down on
lounge in my chamber. Opposite where
lay was bureau with swinging
glass upon it" land here he got up and
placed furniture to illustrate the posi-
tion), "and looking in that glass saw
myself reflected nearly at full length;
but my face, noticed, had two sepa-
rate and distinct images, the tip of the
nose of one being about three inches
from the tip of the other. was lit
tie bothered, perhaps startled, and got
up and looked in the glass, but the illu-
sion vanished. On lying down again,
! saw it a second time, palmer, if pos
sible, than before; and then / noticed
that one of the faces was little paler
say five shades-than the other.
got up, and the thing melted away,
and went off, and in the excitement
of the hour forgot all about it-nearly,
but not quite, for the thing would
once in awhile come up, and give me
little pang as if something uncomfort-
able had happened.
when l went home that night I
told my wife about it, and a few days
afterwards l made the experiment
again, when" with laugh), sure
enough! the thing came again; but ]
never succeeded in bringing the ghost
back after that, though / once tried
very industriously to show it to my
wife, who was somewhat worried about
it. She thought it was sign that 1
was to be elected to second term of
Office, and that the paleness of one of
the faces was an omen that should
not see life through the last term"
This is very remarkable story-a
coincidence, we may say, to which
some significance was given by the
cruel death OF the president soon after
the beginning of his second term. l
told Mrs. Lincoln the story, and asked
her if she remembered its details. She
expressed surprise that Mr.. Lincoln
was willing to say anything about it,
as he had up to that time refrained
from mentioning the incident to any
body; and as she was firm in her belief
that the optical illusion (Which it GER
tainly was) was a warning, l never
again referred to the subject to either
the president or his wife.
Subsequently Lincoln's version of
the story was confirmed by Private
Secretary John Hay, who, however,
was of the opinion that the illusion
had been seen on the day of Lincoln's
first nomination, and not, as l have
said, on the day of his first election

CHARACTER in CARDS.
The Newly Rich Want Fancy Script, with
Lots of Curlycues.

The Newly Rich Want Fancy Script, with
Lots of Curlycues.
You have no idea how cards denote
character" said a young woman who
takes the orders for card plates in a
big engraving establishment
The man who is completely alb
sorbed in business and cares little for
women and society steps up to the
counter briskly. selects a plain, bold
script and rather large card of good
quality. He never parts his name in
the middle, and, though it isn't good
form,' rarely ever uses his full, name,
but prefers the initials of his given
names. He also rarely uses the mis-
ter on his cards, again not minding
good form. like to attend to business
men. They get what they want in a
hurry and get right out.
II tell you, they are different from
the doctors-I mean young doctors
who haven't yet learned that they
have still few things to learn. They
give me lots of trouble. They all want
three or four different plates, and in
other ways are hard to please They
have cards for social use and for bust
ness. The ones for the former are the
correct size, and read this way: Or.
j. Cham berlain Smith The adj
dress is placed in the correct corner
of course. This mans business cards
are engraved John Chamberlain
Smith, M. D. In one corner he has
his Office hours, in the other his Office
address. Young DIR. Smith takes two
hundred of each kind home with him,
and think to myself: Rid of another
one of those bothersome young doc
tors but no, am mistaken. In few
days DR.. Smith is back. Patients
haven't come in as he thought they
would. Perhaps something is wrong
with my cards, he thinks to himself,
and here he is ordering more plates,
with more stuff than enough on them.
''The new rich woman is pleasant
and amusing customer. Did you ever
notice how affable new rich people
are? Some people say they are AFRO
giant, but that has not been my expert
ence. Well, the new rich woman in
variably orders fancy script, with
lots of curlycues, and she always Sc.
lects an extra, in fact, an ultra large
card.
Men from the country like tall,
rawboned kind of script, and their
cards like those of business men are
too large to be correct, according to
fashions caprice.
'Finicky women like inicl1y script,
and I'll tell you another thing about
them. They are nearly always stingy.
They buy thin, glazy cards, declaring
every time that it is because they pre-
fer them, but 1 know better It's
stinginess that makes them prefer
them.
'Of course fashionable men and
fashionable women know what they
want, for they know what is correct,
and give their orders with little par
leying. Their tastes vary somewhat,
but very little.
1--WE been in this business so long
that could wait on most of my Gus
toners, and please them, too, without
getting the slightest hint from them
as to what they want. Here comes
customer now, and I'll bet you an
Easter bonnet that l can suit him in
no time" she said with a merry twin
kle in her eye as she fastened off to a
tall, rawboned man conspicuous in
store clothes.-N Y. Press.
