The United States postal officials get

some queer notions. One of them is thaf Postmaster W. H. Gostlin is a lecturer. Now, Billy Gostlin knows a thing or two about the postofflce and if you should ask him upon which side of a north and south business street the lots are the most valuable, he could doubtless tell you, but when it comes to Hanlyizing Gostlin, in other ; words, to forcing him upon the lecture j platform, ha draws the line. A short time ago the postofflce de- I partment recently sent out an order in I which it was stated that' all postmasters were requested to assist the j

educators in the cities in which they ! are located in spreading a knowledge!

of the postal laws among the school j children of the city. ;

The postmasters were requested to J

go to trie various scnooi in me city, and toy the aid of a chalk talk or magic j lantern slides, instruct the school children in the art of addressing letters

and in a thorough understanding of the postal laws.

All that saved Mr. Gostlin from a

career on the lecture platform was the receipt today of a number of little

booklets which contain all a person

ought to know on the subject of pos

tal laws and which will be given to tho teachers of the various schools so that the information may be properly disseminated.

Hospital Puzzled Over His Condition.

(Special to The Times.) Chiago, 111., Jan. fl. The condition

of F. Richard Schaaf Jr. at the Alexian

ill in his sick room aud all communica

tions with him from the outside world

has been shut off. He Is allowed no

company, nor to read any letters or pa

pers. The doctors do not know Just

what the slow fever that has attacked

him means, but their diagnosis shows

that is is probably a low typhoid. Mrs.

Scbaaf has been with him in the sick

room today.
