United States thousands of dollars . every day; for which they get no returns whatever, not even the satisfaction of knowing that their friends receive .the postal cards which they dump Into the malls by ths hundred. ' - , 1 t Thla slate of affairs ta due to the fact that there Is an entire misapprehension ss to .the postal laws and regulation applying to tha postal rats on these mailing cards, i The law recognises two classes of these- cards, one whlchJ r jd ,ni:i cvnturniii; who UI0 ream- latlons, and upon which the postal card printed In conspicuous letters-on one side with notice that only the address may be written on that side, . ? v Heed Two.

At the present time there is a con cern In Washington manufacturing cards from macerated money,, that is to say. bank bills or greenbacks which have been redeemed In the treaaury and destroyed, the pulp, thereby created ll sold and pressed out Into post card a But these cards do not comply with tht regulations In that their texture la. a different character from the regular postal card.

The fact la. these csrds, as they are called.-are mailable only merchandise, and when aent to foreign countries the charge Is JO cents instead at I nenti of these cards find -their--way-to the dead letter office.
