 Mrs. Brannan smiled faintly. People do grow older, Kay" she reminded the girl. And - not so quickly in Carvel as in other places, perhaps" She added: "But I don't think Emily will teach school longl" Kay looked ct her sharply. Mother, what do you mean?"

 "They were good friends" Mrs. Grammar agreed. "But I was think ing of Qeorgel"
 Kay cried mirthfully: "Georgep Mother, don't be sillyl" And she laughed aloud.
 Yet when she returned to college in the fall, this possibility that Emily, whom she adored, might marry George lurked always in the back of her mind, like an ominous cloud. She forgot 1t for weeks on end, in the pressure of her work, of her widening activities, of her occasional contacts with Chick Ram toul and others; but always 1t was likely to return to perturb her.

 Kay shook her head. "Carvel's nice, yes. But-Well, I think Emily would rather work in Boston"

A recent wire from London states that during the reign of King George v, nearly 1000 new stamps were created through. out the British Empire. All these are believed to be included in the large collection of tho late monarch and they are val- ued at four hundred thousand pounds. King George specialized in collecting United Kingdom and empire stamps and no for- eign issues appeared in all of his 600 volume collection.
 Many of the rarest stamps among the 7EO,OOO In his collec- ton were filmed in color by British postal experts last year and this film will be shown here in New York ct the coming ex- hlbltlon of the National Phlla- tellc society. On occasion, this collection of the kings was viewed by members of the Royal PhilateliC society, hut there has never been . public exhibition. The present king, Edward VIII, while he is not as active . phil- atelist as was his father, is in possession of collection of British and North American stamps that he made during his younger days.
 Postmaster Gen. James Far- ley has announced his approval of the design for the Texas Gen. tennial postage stamp. The new stamp, which will be the same size as the special delivery stamp now in use, is of the three-cent denomination, print cd in purple. The central de- sign for the stamp will consist of two oval frames, one con- taining the portrait of General Sam Houston and the other that of stephen A. Austin. Be- low these portraits there will be a replica of the Alamo. Under- heath will be Q lone star in white, emblematic of the Lone Star state. At the bottom of the stamp will appear the leg- end Texas Centennial l896- l936". Announcement of the first day sales of the Texas stamp will be made at @ later date by the post office depart ment.
 Figures just compiled by the post office department officials disclose that for the twelve months of 1885 the United States Philatelic Agency sold stamps to collectors and dealers having value of $2,45S, ,l27. For the calendar year 1884 the total sales were $91O,78l. This shows an increase in this years sales over those of the year 1884 of $1,547,346.
 Covers carried from Manila to the United States on the initial round trip of the China Clipper were, through an error of trans mission by cable, given as 2,543. The post office department has just announced that the total number of covers on this first flight should have been 25.435.
