 Notice to Reader.
 When you finish reading this mag azine place a i cent stamp on this notice, hand same to any postal em- ploye and it will be placed in the hands of our soldiers and sailors at the front. No wrapping; no address. "A. s. BURLESON, Postmaster General" Only magazines containing the printed notice can be sent at this special rate. which is considerably lower than the regular mailing charge, especially for mail to be sent abroad, so old magazines can not be sent. But all periodicals which con- tain these notices need only be stamped and sent to any local post office or carrier, without wrapping or addressing to be delivered to some soldier or sailor in France or England or elsewhere in active service. The sender buys the stamp; Uncle Sam does the rest.
 The scheme IS said to have met al- ready with success and many of the ships which are leaving this country for Europe carry bags ot magazines straight from home to sol- diers who are unable to read "LIl- lustration' or enjoy the peculiar | flavor of the humor that 1t is said can he found in "Pnncho

The right OF the governor of Iowa
