Nothing so fully reflects the prosper

throughout the entire country from
month to month. The great penny
postal system has grown into the
greatest business in the world, paying
great profits into the treasury. Even
the business done during the midsum.
mer months of July and August show
most substantial gains over not only
corresponding months OF previous
years, but over previous months OF
this year. The postal receipts at fifty
of the largest postofiices in the United
States for July last aggregated $685.

Gains are noted at nearly all the
first-class postoffices, ranging from
l.6O per cent at San Francisco, to
1872 per cent at Toledo. Receipts a,
