Torn Postage Stamps.

Washington, April 4.-The post
Office department. has under prepare
tion a small book to be issued to the
patrons of the postoffices throughout
the country which will contain great
amount of information regarding the
business of the postot1ices which is not
generally known.
The book will be, in a measure, a
book of instruction as to how to trans
act business with the postof1ice.
One of the things to be treated will
be the use of mutilated stamps on let
tiers. 1t is not generally known to
users Of postage stamps that torn or
defaced stamp cannot be used.
Persons who have torn stamps in
their possession have been in the habit
of FASTING the two pieces together and
thus placing it on a letter. This is
prohibited in the postal regulations,
aud the person who uses such a stamp
runs the risk of not having his or her
letter delivered.
Sometimes the stamps are so well
repaired that the tear escapes detec-
tion, but should the rent in the stamp
be found by the postal authorities it
is of no value. The book will also con-
tain information regarding the regis
try and money order systems.

FRUITS AND FLOWERS.

From twenty-year-old mulberry
tree 218 pounds Of leaves have been
picked in a year.
String beans may be obtained during
the entire summer by planting once a
month for successive supplies.
Some trees are much more unfavof.
able to the growth Of plants beneath
them than are others. The worst are
the yew and the ash.
Whenever water Is given to pot
plants enough should be used thor
oughly to wet the soil around the roots.
Mere sprinkling OF the surface does lit
tie good.
The next time you have bouquet Of
flowers to keep add a very little cam.
phor to the water in the vase. and see
how much longer it's freshness will be
retained.
One Of the most satisfactory plants
for house culture is the yellow oxalis.
It will blossom freely II given sun and
water, and its bronze brown foliage
sets off its pretty yellow bloom rarely.

Peppermint For sleeple...e..

Peppermint For sleeplessness.
A physician declares that he finds
peppermint water an efficient remedy
for sleeplessness. This is a very slim
pie cure. and it will not bring forth
from the organs of professional opin.
ion any declaration Of unsafeness. Il
is added that mixture Of spirits Of
chloroform and peppermint water Civ
en- In hot water to the victim Of insom-
MIA will produce sleep. but perhaps in!
the case of the admixture of chloro-
form water may claim decided share
in relieving the trouble. It is ut least
easy to try peppermint water, and the
theory Of its action is believed to be
founded on its effect in withdrawing
blood from the brain by attracting a
fuller flow to the stomach.

tered kick because persons in differ
ent portions of the city do not keep
their sidewalks cleaned off. They
claim that in some places they have
had to get out in the middle of the

the sidewalk is for. There is an ordi-
nance in effect regulating this matter
we think, if not, then it is time one
was passed. This town is big enough
to have its sidewalks kept clear.
1t might be well to call the atten-
tion of our readers to the law passed
