The recent agreement between the post
masters general OF the United States and
Great Britain upon letter postage rate
Of 2 cents an ounce. is expected TO
broaden the field OF international corre-
spondence greatly and lead to a large in
crease in the revenues derived from the
transatlantic postal service. The new
rate. which goes into effect October /.
will be substituted for the current rate
Of cents for the first ounce and 3 cents
for each additional ounce. BY this agree
ment Great Britain will join Canada,
Mexico. Cuba, and Panama as the bene-
ficiary of the present United States do
mestic letter postage rate, which also ex-
tends to Hawaii. Porto Rico, Guam, the
Philippines, Midway Islands. and Alaska
outside the continental United States.
The new rate is in the nature OF an ex
pertinent. but that it will prove success
ful is not doubted. Il Is predicted that
it's success will lead other foreign cOun-
tries TO seek a similar concession from
the United States, reducing the rates Of
postage between the principal European
countries and this one TO the present
American domestic rate Of cents an
ounce. Then. perhaps, the dream Of the
so-called penny postage enthusiasts will
be realized by the enforcement Of a l.
ent-per-Ounce rate on domestic letters
Whether other countries Will be added 10
this list will depend. so Post-ofice De-
| partment officials believe. upon whether
they think a 2-cent rate would increase
/ or diminish their revenues. America is
/ the only country that does not conduct
| its postal service as a mOney-making in
stituton. The policy Of this government

ended in the bride performing jig

around her They then started

the bridegroom had his back turned

This led to a fight between the

COUNTIES IN UNITED STATES.
Some Little Known Facts About Our
Counties.

The county is territorial division
that the United States derived from
Great Britain. where the counties cor
| respond to the provinces or depart
ments Of other European countries
and in limited sense to the States
Of the American Union. An English
man addresses a letter to "Parkin
| ton, Hants," as we address letter
to Columbus. o." or Elmira. y. "
One State, which derives its usages
from French and not from English
originals, has no counties at all. In
Louisiana these subdivisions OF the
State are still called parishes, both
officially and in ordinary speech
though they are now divided into
many real parishes Of the church.
There are about 5000 counties in
the Union, with an average size OF
about 1000 square miles; but this
average is enormously exceeded in
many instances. and is also frequent
ly fallen below. Leaving out GER
tain great unsettled counties in the
West, the average county would be
about 500 miles square IN extent
In much Of the western part of the
country the size of the county is reg
ulated automatically. 1t consists
OF sixteen townships. each composed
of thirty-six square miles. making SIG
square miles in all. In other words,
each township is six miles square,
and each county, twenty-four miles
square,
In Iowa there are thirty-nine coun-
ties that were formed in this way.
each one of which has exactly SIG
square miles. Such divisions were
possible in the newer West. where
these minor political divisions were
made in advance of settlement In
the older parts of the country the
territorial arrangements were largely
accidental.
The largest county in the United
States is Yavapai county, Arizona,
which has an area Of almost 10000
square miles. Nine States of the
Union are each smaller than this
county. 1t is larger than the whole
Of West Virginia, and almost as
large as South Carolina.
The sixteen counties Of Montana
average q greater size than the State
OF Massachusetts.
Among the other great counties OF
the Union are San Bernardino and
San Diego, in California. which are
not only vast regions, but contain
great productive territory; Humboldt
and Lincoln county, New Mexico,
which are only sparsely populated;
and Lincoln county. New Mexico.
which bids fair In time to have 4
large population.
Although the New England States
are small the average size OF tbs
counties IS greater than in most cf
the Middle Western and Southern
States. Worcester county in Massa-
chnsetts. is an example of an East
ern county that is a. the same time
large in area and very populous. It
