Protecting Postage Stamps from Moisture

By Editor

ALL persons having occasion to send postage stamps in letters during the warm summer weather will take notice and be particular to keep them from all moisture. Neither carry them in your hands nor in your vest pocket, nor anywhere else where they will be exposed to the perspiration of the body. We frequently receive letters containing solid pasteboard of postage stamps, which cannot be used till they are soaked apart, or otherwise carefully separated, and re-gummed.
