One day when he had arrived at the
age of i've an old school friend of his
mothers came to see them. Naturally
the son and heir was called for and
presented.

said mamma proudly.
The large, blue eyes looked up into
the visitors face in puzzled amazement
then suddenly came the relieved reply.

Government Ink Alone Must BE Used
for CaneeIing Stamps.

Acting Postmaster General Wynne
has issued an order making it a serious
offense for postmasters throughout the
country to use any other ink than that
furnished by the department for cancel
lation of stamps and letters.
Heretofore it has been the custom for
the postmasters to make their own pur-
chases of any kind of ink. As result
there have been many complaints OF
blotting and other faults Of printing in
the cancellations. The order states
that hereafter all postmasters must use
only the ink furnished by the depart
ment. In case of violation of the
order, the offender is to be removed.
"The cancellations, said an officer of
the department, "have been coming in
in every known color, from red and
yellow to black. Some ink can be re-
moved very easily by stamp-washers,
as certain class of forgers are called
and by this means the government
conld be robbed of many thousands of
dollars before the fraud could be dis
covered. The ink furnished by the
government cannot be removed by
these criminals.
"The matter seems small, but it is
important. All postmasters in the
United States are included in the order.

If You Have Dyspepsia. Read This.

The old way of taking pepsin, bis
muth, etc, to cure dyspepsia IS all
wrong. They may be put up in tab
lets or in liquid, the result is just the
same. The object is to create artificial
digestion but this does not make
cure. Stop taking the pepsin, etc, and
you have your dyspepsia or indigestion
back again and sick headache, it does
not cure, stop taking the drugs and the
pain and distress return. The only com
mon sense method is to drive out of
the system the cause of dyspepsia and
sick headache, by cleansing the stomach
and bowels. at the same time using
medicine that will act on the liver. This
forces through the glands of the stom-
ach the digestive fluid that nature in
tended. In this way you cure dyspep-
=in. The medicine that cures dyspepsia
