Denmark, Norway, Russia, Sweden and
other European countries. There are
now several hundred different types Of
charity stamps used in all parts of the
world, as many as forty being used in
Austria for chiidren's hospitals alone.

1904. After being used in these coun-
tries fer three years, IS direct result
