LANGUAGE cr STAMPs-J. C. K, Hanford, Cal.
The so-called language of stamps, like the
cryptogram, is arranged by correspondents so
that it can be understood only by those using
it. One method is as follows: The placing OF
the stamp on the upper right hand corner
has no significance. The lower left hand cor
right hand lower corner c. A stamp placed
straight up and down at A means ''You are my
first choice; at B al long to see you; upside
down at A means "There is some one ahead of
YOU; at when will you be at home?'; at
Tomorrow; slantwise at "Cheer up or
"You may hope; at B watch for papa or
mama" as the case may be, and at G 'fNever."
