Rev. John Deering in Boston Watch,
man.-These are the days when news
papers are histories, and with care
ful and wise censorship, such as exists
in Japan, they become a very reliable
history of the fast passing events
During the war an American accustonl-
ed to the wild statements OF the rel
low journals Of his native land would
at tines wonder If he were really in
the midst of q conflict. The calm
seIfcoatained statements which the
press putsorward were SO unlike the re-
ports that filtered back to Us by
means of the home papers. But the
war is past and more rapidly than ever
is history being made. One hesitates

ORIGIN OF POSTAGE STAMPS.
Secret Sign on an Envelope the Cause
OF Present System.

Quite recently there has been more
or less discussion as to the origin OF
the postage stamp.
Perhaps the most authentic story Is
that which comes from the post office
department at Washington.
II appears that about S. years ago
Rowland Hill was travelling through
one OF the northern districts OF Eng.
land and for a time was sojourning at
an Inn where the postman came with
letter for young miss. who turned
II over and over In her hand and after
examining the envelope infinitely In.
qulred the price OF the postage, which
was a shilling. She sighed sadly and
returned the letter to the postman,
saying that II was from her brother,
but that she had no money.
Mr.. Hill was an onlooker and was
touched with pity. He paid the
postage and his action seemed to EN-
barrass the girl. when the postman
had gone she told Mr. Hin that some
signs marked on the envelope con
yeyed to her all she wanted to know
and that as a fact there was no writ
ing Enclosed. In extenuation she said
that she and her brother had con
trived a code system OF communleat
ing. as neither OF them we're able Il
pay post charges.
Mr.. Hill thought Of the results Of I
system which made such frauds pos
sible. Before another day he hal
planned postal system upon the pres
ent basis.-Harper's Weekly

Every nerve is a live wire
connecting some part OF the
body with the brain. They are
so numerous that IL YOU pene-
trate the skin with the point OF
a needle YOU will touch a nerve
and receive a shock-pain il is
called. Aches aud pains come
from a pressure, strain or in
Jury TO a nerve; the more prom
inent the nerve the greater the
pain. When the pain comes
from a large nerve Il is called
Neuralgia
whether Il be the facial nerves,
or the heart, stomach, sciatie
or other prominent nerve
branch. To stop pain, then,
YOU must relieve the strain or
