The foregoing showed the standing

That the Democratic party would
control the United States Senate be-
came almost a certainty late Wednes

AZ to Adhesive Postage Stamps.

Rowland Hill had nothing to fear
from enlightened officers of health
foreboding that STAMP licking" would
disseminate consumption, diphtheria,
smallpox and scarlet fever" 1t Is re-
markable to recall with what enthusi-
asm the public took to stamp licking
In 1910. The adhesive stamp seems
to have been only an after-thought of
the great postal reformer, whose orig
inal proposal covered only the sale OF
ready-stamped envelopes. Even when
he admitted the adhesive stamp az an
alternative, he thought 1t would be
reserved for exceptional cases" But,
"A spite Of newspaper ieers at bits OF
sticking plaster for dabbing on the
letters the public soon showed it's
mind. The stamped Mulready en-
velope proved dead failure, while for
weeks the supply of sticking plaster"
fell far below Its demand.
