Stamps Other Than Postage Stamps
Should Not Be Put on Outside of
Mail.

Judging from the present indications
at the post office, quite large number
of people will be keenly disappointed
during the Holiday season through
their neglect to obey the regulations
which forbid the pasting of any adhe-
ssive stamp, other than the postage
stamp, on the front or address side of
mail matter. These may be posted on
the back of mail matter and delivered
in this country, and in most foreign
countries. Austria, Norway and Por-
tugal refuse to accept mail bearing
them. if these stamps resemble regu-
lar stamp and all countries, unless the
regular postage thereon is prepaid. and
the non postage stamps are pasted on
the back of the mail.
Already mail is being received con-
trary to these regulations, and post
masters are obliged TO return i to
sender if known. otherwise to send 1t
to the dead letter office.

COMMON SENSE
IN MEDICINE.
The Wealthy Can Afford
Doctors and Nurses.
Many Good People Cannot Afford
to be Sick
Proprietary Medicines Prove
Efficient and Economical.

Wealthy families do not feel obliged
to consider the matter of expense in
case medical treatment is needed.
They can afford to consult physicians.
to get prescriptions and to have medi-
cines specially put up for them. Most
families, however,-and they are the
bone and sinew of the country. intelli-
women,-have so little to go and come
on that professional services are out
of the question, except where they are
absolutely necessary. These families,
these millions of men and women of
only ordinary means, regard it as
themselves of the leading proprietary
medicines, which are so remarkably
effective and so easily obtanable.
The makers of Hoods Sarsaparilia
are justified in saying that for all tho
diseases and ailments for which this
great medicine is recommended thou
sands of families have found it entire
ly satisfactory. 1t is unquestionably
the leading proprietary medicine for
impure blood, lack of strength, that
tired feeling. loss of appetite. and for
seyerer troubles, such as rheumatism,
eczema or salt rheum, catarrh, blood
poisoning, bad sores, scrofula and
other diseases.

HELP YOURSELF ALONG THE
PATH FORWARD TO SUCCESS
Ignorance a Severe Handiesp-An
Opportunity to Secure knowledge.

Seventy-five per cent. of the big
business men of Augusta declare that
the chief educational need of their en-
ployes is better knowledge of Eng
| lish. including spelling, grammar and
punctuation and the use of words IL
general.
Stenograplers crowd to answer an
advertisement announcing position
paying 81 a week, because they are not
qualified to demand higher wages.
Thousands of stenographers and type
writer's trained in the art of making
pot hooks" and tapping the typed
keys are eking out an existence on
meager wages.
These statements have a direct bear
ing upon the proposition that The
Journal is offering you a Webster's
New Illustrated Dictionary free of
charge, and give the reason for the
popularity of the distribution.
Why?
Because the perusal of the diction-
airy is acknowledged by educators to
be the best, the quickest and the only
sure way of acquiring that knowledge
which canvass of the big business
houses of Augusta proves that there
is demand for.
Push Yourself Higher With Dietion-
sry's Help.
| Get out OF the 81 class.
| Or, IL you are not so poorly paid as
that, at least become busy and take
advantage of the opportunity which is
bringing hundreds to the Dictionary
Department every day.
| Six coupons clipped from eonsecu-
| tive issues of The Journal and the
small expense bonus specified in the
display advertisement on another page
of this issue do the trick, and permit
you to turn the tables upon what you
have regarded as misfortune when |,
was only your own ignorance weighing
upon you and the limitations of youl
vocabulary binding you down.
| Good authority for the statements as
| to need of education is Director Ed
ward Rynearson, of the Pittsburgh
High schools. When reorganizine
the commercial department of Hisf
schools and inaugurating the nigh
| school system, he wrote to most of the
| representative business men of Pitts
burgh, asking them to cooperate BY
suggestions as to what subjects of in
struction should be given the greatest
attention. This is what he reports

Sential, So per cent bookkeeping, 5t

inevitable lack of English was con-
sidered to be deserving of first atten'

Asked what defects they noticed

desired: Better training in spelling
