Postage stamps Upside Down.


Folk in general are not nowadays 50
careful as they were years ago in the
matter of afixing postage stamps to
letters and receipt stamps upon bills,
and many never note whether the
stamps are the right way up or upside
down. 1t was very different, however,
before the rush and roar Of this half OF
the century began, for 1t was next door
to a crime, in the eyes Of many, to af-
fix a stamp with the English Queens
head the wrong way up. Many were
not only under the impression that her
Majesty would "feel offended" but that
If she took the matter up personally, or
told officials to act, punishment could
follow. There are still, however, many
people who look with horror upon a
postage stamp upside down.

A sudden resolve came to Mrs. Dorm

her away from Winston House, it would
not matter-she would have told him the
truth. And the truth that she had to tell
him was that the separation was slowly
but surely killing his wife.

aware, Lackawanna and Western rail
road paid visit to the Home for the
Friendess yesterday which will long
be remembered. This organization

were present.
The visitors numbered fifty or sixty
and were from different points along
the road They We're shown over the
building from top to bottom and were
immensely pleased being specially de-
lighted with their "own room" as they
call the big, light dining room. They
were anxious to learn the current
needs of the Home and seemed inn
pressed with the idea of presenting
some new table ware.
After they had wandered up stairs
and down stairs they all assembled on
the broad piazza and were photo
graphed in order to have framed
picture of the group to hang on the
wall of their room. Mrs. n. Y Leet,
who was present, also secured snap
shot of the assemblage of men who
have proved themselves such noble
friends of the institution.
