Bmus Ue Thl Haw Always Bought •t Betrayed by a Postage Stamp. “Some folks always stamp their let ters upside down for luck,” said a post office inspector in a reminiscent mood, according to tbe New Orleans Times Democrat, “and others put the stamp on the back, which makes the cancel lation clerk forget his religion. I re member we caught a fellow once in tbe peculiar way be stamped a letter He was wanted for frivoling with tbe laws of Uncle Sam, bnt had skipped out and couldn’t be located. In looking over some of bis correspondence I bsd noiiced thst be always put tbe stamp on crosswise, so as to leave a small tri angle of the envelope at tbe npper right hand corner. ■ “Why be did it I don’t know, but tbe stamp was always in tbat one par ticular spot and gummed down with mathematical accuracy. One day I was in a certain Georgia town, and while loafing near tbe cancellation table at tbe poatoffice, noticed several letters stamped as I have described. Just on ebaoce I took a memoranda of tbe address and postmark, which was ChSjßanooga, and happening to be in that place tbe following week, I collared my man as be was asking for bis mail. Tbe letters I noticed turned out to be addressed te bis wife. When I told him bow I got my pointer be was mad as blazes, and I guess he ■tamps his letters straight now—if he is out yet.” Bean the Tl » Kind You Haw Alwiys Bought Bign*tnn Pitts’ Carminative aids digestion, regu lates the bowels, cures Cholera Infantum, Cholera Morbus, Dysentery, Pains, Grip ing, Flatulent Colic, Unnatural Drains from the Bowels, and all diseases incident to teething children.
