NEW POSTOFFICE RULING
Names ofPostoffices Will be Engraved
 on Stamps.

After a lapse of twelve years the American Bank Note Go. has again been awarded the contract for the printing of the United States post age stamps. The contract was first awarded to the Government Bureau of Engraving and Printing on its es- timated the cost, which was far below the actual cost. The difference was made up annually through deficiency bill passed by Congress. Although for the past three contracts tenders were asked for, the contracts were of little value, as the Government Bur eau was permitted to put in as its bid figure which bore no relation to the actual cost of the work.
 The new feature in the proposals is a provision requiring that the name of the offices city and state be printed on all the stamps for presi dential offices, of which there are 6,000. In detail, the names of 26 large offices of the country where the salaries of the post masters amount to $6,000 and over, the name of the office is to be engraved on the stamp, while on the remaining 5,974 offices the names will be printed after the stamp has been engraved.
 For ordinary postage stamps of all denominations, the New York con cern bid $O55 per thousand, and the Bureau of Engraving and Printing $.057. For special delivery stamps the company bid 10 cents a thous- and, and the bureau 15.6 cents. Sepa- rate bids were put in for the special stamps.
 The purchasing agent of the post office stated that the principal reason for having the names of the offices printed on the stamps was its ten dency to prevent postoffice robberies. He said if a postofice was robbed it would be difficult matter to dis pose of the stamps in any quantity if the name of the robbed office was printed on the stamp.

SHARPENING A PENCIL.
In This Act, It Is Said. You May Read
 Mans Character.

In This Act, It Is Said, You May Read
 n Mans Character.
 No woman should marry a man till she has seen him sharpen a lead pen cil. She can tell by the way he does Here are a few infallible rules for her guidance in the matter:
 The man who holds the point toward him and close up against his shirt front Is slow and likes to have secrets. He is the kind Of C.Gl Tho when the dearest girl in the world fines out that there are others" and as.;s him who they are and what he means by call. ing on them will assume an air of ex ycssive dignity.
 The man who holds the pencil out at arms length and whittles away al t, hit or miss. Is impulsive. jolly. good 2atured and generous.
 He who leaves a blunt point is duli and plodding and will never amount 70 much. He is really good hearted, but finds his chief pleasure in the commonplace things of life.
 He who sharpens his pencil an inch or more from the point is high strung and imaginative and subject to ex- uberant flights of fancy. He will all ways be seeking to mount upward and accomplish things in the higher re- gions of business and art, and his wife's greatest trouble will be to hold him down to earth and prevent his flying off altogether on a tangent.
 The man who sharpens his pencil all around smoothly and evenly. as though It were planed off in an automatic sharpener. Is systematic and slow to anger, but he Is so undertaking from & fixed principle that he would drive {. woman with a sensitive temperament to distraction In less than six months. On the contrary, he who jumps iu and leaves the sharpened wood as jag ged as saw teeth around the top has a nasty temper and will spank the baby on the slightest provocation. There are certain women who can manage that kind of man beautifully. however, and if he gets wife with a calm, persuasive eye he will come down from his high horse in a few minutes and be as meek as lamb.
 The man who doesn't stop to polish the point of lead once the wood Is cut away has a streak of coarseness in his nature.
 He who slaves off the lead till the point is like a needle is refined. deli cate and sensitive. He will not be likely to accomplish so much as his more common brother. but he will nev- er shock you and Is without doubt d good man to tie to.-New York Press.
