Bigelow Paine has written, perhaps

ploration. The details Of the exped-

entrance OF the little party into the
lcebound region containing the polar
center, the people and form of life eX-
listing there and their final escape
from their precariOus situation, is most
original and enthraling. The book Is
a complete departure from the authors

Old GLORY
Will be on the New Two Cent
Stamp.


For the first time since 1860 and
practically since the establishment
OF the United States postal system
the people will have the privilege OF
using a postage stamp bearing the
flag Of the Republic with the issu-
ance of the new series of postage
stamps now in process of painting.
The stamp displaying prominently
the Stars aud Stripes will be the
z-cent denomination, but 1t will
bear no resemblance to the cent
stamp in use today. Washington's
portrait, which has appeared upon
the common letter postage. since
the beginning of the use OF stamp,
except during the single year OF 1869
when the portrait OF Washington
was displaced 10 make room for a
wild and wooIly, wide e--siacked,
woodburning locomotive OF the
Crockett" type, will again occupy
the position OF honor upon the
label, but the bust of Washington,
so long familiar TO the public, will
disappear, probably forever.
The portrait OF Washington,
drawn from Houdon,s profile cast
is abandoned, to be succeeded by a
photograph from Stuarps famous
painting, which now adorns the
national capitol.
The FIRST postage stamps issued
by this Government were OF the {
and 10 cent denomination, in f847,
bearing the portraits, of FRANKLIN
and Washington, respectively. The
Washington picture was Ssnart's.
This portrait continued until 1870.
with few exceptions, a type OF the
Houdon cast appearing upon the 3
cent value portion OF the time.
In 1870 the Stuart photograph dis.
appeared entirely, being superseded
by Houdon's profile cast, which has
been used exclusively upon the
current letter postage denomination
up to the present time.
Nov Stuars's representation OF
fhe 6ret President is about to re-.
sumo its place. The likeness OF
! Washington is the most important
