THE FRANkING PRIVILEGE.

Mrs Roosevelt, widow OF the tate
eX-president, now has the privilege
of sending letters through the U. S.
mails without paying postage Eiel
signature does the work OF the post
age stamp. The bill giving this priv
ilege to the colonel's widow has been
signed by President Wilson.
This privilege is not extended to
Mrs Roosevelt because she needs
the money she spends ror postage
stamps. for the late Mr. roosevelt
was a millionaire at the time Of his
death. according to repor:s OF tlf
property settlement. The franksng
privilege for many years has peer
extended to widows of former rres:
dents as token of respect. Origin
ally, it was intended as a means o.
assisting the widow of the eistiD'
guished citizen, financially, for ex
presidents used to die poor. In tn
case. however, the law is pure'T Ill
act of courtesy and p'ect. The
franking privilege is rare gift
possessed by almost none outside Oh
the government offices, and for gov
eminent officials the privilege ca
tends to official business only
For Mrs. Roosevelt the privilege
will not be valuable one fror the
financial standpoint. But as a nj
ions official token of esteem, II i
valuable beyond price. 1t Is well INA
this cutom be kept alive. There l
little enough of courtesy in the worl
