UNCLE SAM 1OCENTS AHEAD.
Five Envelopes Out Of . Bunch That He
Wouldn't Redeem.

Five Envelopes Out Of Bunch That He
Wouldn't Redeem.
A reporter went into the New Yor.:
possofioe the other day with a bundle
Of misdirected stamped envelopes in his
pocket to see il Uncle Sam would not
redeem them for cash. He found q
window in room on the second floor,
where this is the special business at.
tended to. Uncle Sans representative
looked over the lot Of envelopes, handed
back five, with the cash for the others,
and said:
"You will have to take a trip to Falls
City, Neb; Columbus, Ga. Newark,
N. j., and Brooklyn to get those four
redeemed, and here is one we won't re.
deem at all. You see, it is this way: 1t
does not matter where an envelope Is
addressed 10; the point 10 where 1t
comes from-what postofflce issued 1t.
A postoffice can only redeem envelopes
which it has issued itself. II an en-
velope shows on the face Of it that some
other office issued it, can't give you
cash for it.
Now look at this one. Here in the
corner is note, After ten days return
to Mr.. Blank, Falls City, Neb. Evil
IDENTIFY the Falls City postofflce issued
that. and you will have to go there to
get it redeemed if you are fond Of long
distance economy Of that sort. These
envelopes here with no Return to- note
may have been issued by some other
Office, but we have no means Of know
ing it and take them on 18th. Here is
one marked, Return to o. box z, 1855,
New York city We will take that, for
we evidently issued lit. The principle
is simple, even if its workings look
complicated.
The reporter reminded the clerk that
he had refused one envelope altogether.
The clerk took it up and looked at it.
1t had no Return to" note in the cor
ner, but the name and address were
printed on it.
"Well, you see, that comes under a
different rule" he continued. "The
idea is to redeem envelopes which have
been misdireoted by accident. This man
has spoiled this envelope to help on his
business, sending it to some correspond
ent inclosed with letter asking for a
business order likely. He expected the
other man to use this envelope only in
to him and to keep him in mind
OF it he printed his address on it, He
did not intend to furnish free stamps
for his business acquaintance unless he
got them back Oh letters to himself.
His correspondent-you in this case
either did not send him an order or sent
it in new envelope. Now you want to
get back cents. The business man
spent that 2 cents simply to boom his
Uncle Sam is not booming
my ones business, even to the extent
II 2 cents, except where all share alike
trough general prosperity. You cannot
Jet that envelope redeemed anywhere.
The reporter thanked the clerk. After
calculating the cost of q trip to Nebras-
"a, Georgia, Newark and Brooklyn and
1t with the value Of the four
tamped envelopes which might be re-
leemed by it he concluded it was cheap.

these paymasters, saying they would
bring yellow fever infection with them,
or the money might be infected while
on board the ships. Other paymasters
