new STAMP DESIGNS.
Patterned to obtain Greater Simple
ity Commensurate With Merit.

Washington, D. C.-The bureau Of
engraving and printing has completed
designs suggested by Postmaster Gem
eral Meyer for a new issue of United
States postage stamps. The new
stamps will be of the following de-
nominations: one-cent, two-cent,
three-cent, four-cent, fiye-cent, six
cent eight-cent, ten-cent, fifteen-cent,
fifty-cent and one dollar. The two
dollar and five dollar denominations
now in use will not be reprinted. 1t
will be some weeks before all the de-
nominations will be put on the mar
ket However, the twO-cent stamp
will be the first distributed, and it is
expected that shipments to postmas-
tiers will commense some time in No
yember.
The new issue has been designed
with the object of obtaining the great
est simplicity commensurate with ar
tistic result. The profiles have been
taken in each instance instead of full
view, giving bas-relief effect. All
the stamps are of similar design, con-
tanning head in an allipse, the only
decoration being laurel leaves on eth.
CT SlQ6 Ol etA0 0lllpS6. 1A0 ASllSL1AS
is in straight lines, at the top being
gu. S. Postage" and at the bottom
the words, 1.-TWO Cents" The one
cent stamp contains the head Of
Franklin, while all the others will
bear that of Washington, taken from
busts by Houdon. Thus one of the
most notable differences in the new
issue will be the minimum of letter
ing. The colors are the reds and
blues of the early stamps.
