"Post" and "Postal Cards. /"

The impression seems to be quite
general that writing on one half of
the face of government postal card
is permissible, but it seems to be a
mistake. Postmaster Harris at Kan
sas City in lengthy discussion of
she subject, says: There must be
nothing done to a postal card printed
by the United States, except the ad-
ecss put on the face and the COM
munication written on the back. On
q privately made post card the pub
+ can write letter on the left half
{ the face side of the card and write
N the back, stick pictures and scraps
IN the back, glue on a sheet of pa
per, or do almost anything else ex-
cept try to mail those picture post
cards with poisonous stuff like mica,

government postal card is sacred"

breath. But light was streaming
through the keyhole of the bedroom
door. With sigh he paused, then
he opened the door and entered. His
