US, the people fri ed the tea leaves and the
coffee berries and served them with salt
and pepper? Well. t. : people treated their
stamps as absurdly N 1854.
Some folks would put their stamps in
side their letters. out of sight. Here is
the official notice that we issued TO stop
that Practice"
The clerk took from the drawer an aged
bulletin that said:
1.-THE taInp upon all letters and pack
ages must be affixed OF the OUTSIDE
thereof, and above the address thereon"
He put back mis- leiiletin and drew forth
another one.
People would pin the stamps on their
said. land when they did gum them, they
would not do It light Hence this second
bulletin" and he read:
Persons posting letters should afnx
tine requisite number of stamps previous
to dcpositing them in the letter receivers
as when posed in u damp state the
stamps are liable to rub off and thereby
cause the letrcrs to be treated as unpaid,
DO rot pin on the stamps

understand. Think of it-ft didn't UNDER
stand the simple matter of sticking a post
age stamp on a letter. So we got out a
third bulletin"
The third bulletin. in big. impatient let
