The enyelope-lickets will do well TO
pause and ponder on he fact that
man has died in Consequence of in
dulging In the popuItr but disgusting
trick of moistenirg the adhesive
envelope with the tongue, advises
Oakland Echoes. ySorse will say,
"How can gum afabic poison any
person." Gum ar3bic? Are they
so innocent as to believe that article,
raised 10 a prohibitve price by the
Egyptian war and subsequent closure
of the Soudan, isl used on their
envelopes? Do they see that ancient
nag hobbling down \ he street? There
is the parent of their gum arabic;
and in few eeks'Itime, when that
decrepit animal haimade his bow to
the knacker, and yiklded up his hoofs
TO the glue-boiler, 3erhaps they may
have a lick at hS remains on an
envelope they are hlispatching to
friend or sweetheart. And should
some faint of arp NAL poison Turk
amid that ''gum,f they may soon
require other, add black-bordered
envelopes to be licltd for them when
their mourning-cakds are sent out.
Perhaps no more unpleasant part of a
visit to stationef's shop is when
having folded the $nall purchase in d
fiimsy envelope, thk tradesman raises
it TO his lips, openf a hippopotamus
mouth, protrudeA tongue which
looks at least two tizes too large for
its habitation, and, then, with a
smirk, hands the dbmp delicacy to his
customer. May III, of all men, be
warned by the premature departure
of a fellow licker,t and may all who
send literary missiE YES to their friends
rest assured thatI the recipients of
these envelopes Would feel better if
these coverings hap been closed with
out any exhibitionlof moist anatomy.
