PhiIatellc History of the Mar

Many stamp collectors like to spe-
clalize, either in some country, or some
especial line of stamps, such as ami
mails, or birds, or even ships. An in
teresting collection could be made Of
war stamps. A collection on these
lines would include all war-tax issues,
all stamps overprinted for use in oc-
cupied territory, issues overprinted
for the use of expedltionary forces,
and envelopes, etc, bearing the can
cellattOns from field post offices and
from battleships. Probably the first
war stamps to make their appearance
were those introduced by Australian
troops who had captured German col.
onies in the Pacific. Other early ar
rivals were the German productions
for use In Belgium, Poland, Lithuania
and Russia. Similar enemy issues
were imposed on the conquered by Bull
garla and Austria.

Picturesque Welcome.

there is bound to be much of same
ness about the general plan, but Mont
gomery, Ala, put some new wrinkles
into the welcoming of the Alabama
unit of the Rainbow division that must
have been most inspiring. The soldiers
walked, not between lines of home
guards, but through lane of rainbow
clad girls, who threw bouquets at the
soldiers and over the high arch of VIC
tory entwined rainbOw-cOlored ribbons.
A great floral float composed entirely
of lilies, with the exception Of the fig,
ures 1916" in gold stars, told the story
Of those left behind, and as the float
advanced the Chopin funeral march
was played.

BELIEVED IN EVIL SPIRITS
Queer Story of Superstition Existing
in England Comparatively Only
: Few Years AGO.

In these days of education 1t Is
rather difficult to understand the men
tally of the people of sixty or sew
enty years ago, but from the following
1t will be clear that they had not en-
tirely overcome the Idea of evil spirits
entering inanlmate things, remarks
the London Times.
A tradition has been current in the
village of MlllbrOok, Bedfordshire, that
sixty or seventy years ago two life
sized effigies were removed from the
altar tomb in the church owing to the
strange noises they were heard to
make, and removed to the cellar at
the rectory, where owing to their con-
tinuance of emitting noises they so dis
turbed the residents in the building
that in self-defense they were inferred
in the consecrated ground of the
churchyard.
Local Psychologists recently decided
to test the truth Of the story, and after
three days digging recovered the
statues. The figures were decaptat-
ed and~the man had lost his legs, but
the head of the woman was recovered
and the mans head is in the possess
sion of a resident of the village.
The church records show that early
in the last century there was hand
some altar tomb with full-length fig
ures of William Huett and Mary, his
wife, in the church and these figures
agree with the records.
The figures are recumbent and the
heads rest upon embroidered cushions
hung with tassels carved in stone.
They represent a man clad in plate
armor and a woman wearing the head
dress of the Elizabethan period. The
tomb and effigies are carved out of Tit
| ternhoe stone and the traces of heavy
gliding and the superior workmanship
show that the monument must have
been very handsome one, the approx
innate date of erection being about
1900.

Mike" was slightly burned about
the hands.
