NEW STAMPS TO BE ISSUED.
National Watchman.

Our national government, through
the Postoftice Department, is about to
put on sale series of postage stamps
similar to the Columbian and Trans
Mississippi issues of few years ago
This new issue is to be known as the
Pan American series. 1t is not the
intention of the Postofiice Depart.
ment, however, to Withdraw the stamps
now on sale from circulation, so those
who prefer the regular article can
have them for the asking.
These stamps, which are issued to
commemorate the Pan-American Ex.
position at Buffalo, N. Y, are to be oI
denominations Of one, two, four, five
eight and ten cents. They are to be
about the same size as those in use al
present. The borders take the colors
OF the regular series on the same de
nominations at this date. All the
central illustrations are from photo.
graphs, as the objects represented ap.
pear to-day, and are to be printed in
black. The subjects are lake steamer,
railway train, automobile, bridge at
Niagara Falls, canal locks at Sault
Ste. Marie and ocean steamship.
While the stamp collector will wall
about speculative stan ps and heap ex.
pressions OF disparsgement on every.
thing and everybody connected with
them. and then will step around to
the postoffice and buy supply, the
government will reap a neat revenue
from their sale to help lower the de.
ficit which the Auditor for the Post
Office Department shows in his report
each year.
What an item stamps like these
would make can be judged from the
sale of the Omaha series of 1898; the
issue of these stamps began June 10
and ceased December 81, and accord.
ing to the report OF the Third Assist
ant Postmaster General 251 ,533, $40
stamps were issued with face value
of S., ,597 ,69l. This was outside of the
receipts arising from the sale OF the
regular series,

Medicinal Qualities Of Vegetables.

Medicinal Qualities Of Vegetables.
Parsley is cooling and purifying.
Asparagus is very cooling and easily
digested.
Turnip tops are invaluable when
young and tender.
Watercresses are excellent tonic,
stomachic and cooling.
Celery is delicious cooked, and good
for rheumatic and equity people.
Onions are good for chest ailments
and colds, but do not agree with all.
Spinach is particularly good for
rheumatism and gout, and also in kid
ney diseases.
Lettuces are very wholesome. They
are slightly narcotic, and lull and
calm the mind.
Beet root is very cooling and highly
nutritious, owing to the amount of
sugar it contains.
Green neute shoots, if gathered in
spring and cooked as spinach. form q
most delicate and wholesome blood
purifying vegetable.
Potatoes, parsnips, carrots, turnips
and artichokes are highly nutritious,
but not so digestible as some 'vegeta-
bles. Potatoes are the most nourish-
ing and are fattening for nervous peo.
pie.
Cabbage, caulitlower, Brussels
sprouts and broccoli are cooling, nu-
tritive, laxative and purifying to the
blood, and also act as tonic, but
should not be eaten too freely by deli
cate persons.
