MARTIN.: (Concluded.) • In concluding this 'subject, which I ap. preached and undertook, dreading throughout MY inability to do it the justice required, and present it in its entirety, I do so hoping that others may be benefitted, and Shat the letter writing of any who may have honored m with a perusal will be improved' and go out to the world in a proper form. ' There are some minor points, bearing upon the het part of the Work connected with a letter before despatching it, that are: not only frequently overlooked but slighted. It is ll knowno opening a letter,' when we ]] n w that upon o e P i P g received from the office, the first thought enter- ingthemind is,who is the sender or writer thereof, arid to facilitate: ascertaining this a friend has suggested to. me the idea of,having placed at 'the top; of the page both the name of the party writing and:the party written to; thus, " From James Smith to Mr. T. Orie," and then, proceed with -the business of the letter. This, no .cloubt, would be s' a very great benefit, in seine cases, but where so very little unfolding, according to; the ,rules laid down, is 'required, th�name of the writer_ can soon be ascertained, besides, where' EO very many business firms ` have a .printed' heading, both names' appear in sufficient juxta position to cover the, requirements of the sug- ger;tion referred to. Tho size of envelope to use is a matter of very greatiasportance, and one too frequently neglected by many. I would recommend a number seven, whish easily admits of all sizes and forms of:ivriting paper when folded, and gives emple.roow for the address,' ae well as enclosing sums of money with greater ease and less likelihood, of bulkiness reeulting. I would ,strongly recommend,: in alt ,cases•, of remitting money, tense an. official envelope, in which the money can be laid lengthwise; and thus 'avoid :folding' it; although ,all are glad to get .it in any shape. Either of. the above sized' envelopes are preferrable with the postmasters, whom I assure you do not like the great variety of shapes presented to them, to well as these of an:ed-en size. As to postal. cards,-I-can;.say-but--little"more-than-. that the new' card' is of a better :eine and quality • than the old,'butt still is not Large: enough; to " facilitate; ease' , of manipulation through the,', mails -they are- apt yet to get slipped into ;arf open' envelope'enawares. In addreesin'g-air-renvelope there •are two -import-•- ant', points to consider—the-first is 'distinct: naps, and,the second:is arranging it properly thereon. kat which, part of the superscrip- tion sb int—the name cull :be the most dish c of the,party to whom it is 'addressed, -,or the', mine of the town to which itis going. ? For a very great aid-to,the postmaster where itis' mailed in assisting him the more -readily and rapidly Aso 'determ'ine -its destination, 'the' name of the'•townshould be very -plainly and distinctly written, and for equally an .aid -at the poet office, to which it is sent, to';deter the urine it is intended, at a glance for whom name• should` -he -very'" els-eily"and";distrnetl`y'^ written also,`. I, therefore, favor both the -name. and the destinatioir;being clearly 'expressed. The sender' tray know for whom the: letter ie ntended, because.he, is fam]liar with his own handwriting; - but every postmaster,' ;even' should he have the' patience of Job, may not have.time to' 'deciph'er; the- result of .another's. carelessness. No matter how'. hurriedly the letter itself may be Written, do take time: with' the address Bat should the name come first on, the envelope, thus, VIC'1 EMANUEL, MANCHESTER, ' ° ONTARIO. or the poet office, thus • • MANCHESTER , ONTARIO.

He went a con- siderable distance west of Brandon, but did not find anything to suit him. He returned hoine a few days ago, and Mrs. Carter now intends purchasing another farm in this county, which is generally Y ad- mitted d e byalle s nslble'people to be the garden of Canada, the great northwest not excluded.

Itshould be - put on the right hind corner, at the top, and any one wh9 has seen his postmaster cancel- ling the stamps can, readily see the necessity, of so doing. By wetting the stamp 'on bathe sides you will avoid 'endanger of its'curling,l or' not adhering completely.' • I -might here be pardi>n:ed for introducing the, subject: of the .tree and :importance' of a Letter Book to a business man. . All=should' have. and use them -they may not he needed often for reference:but when they are'wanted. their importance is readily seen—where a cor respondence extends over a' series of letters,:. and the thread dr the story required, how convenient it to turn from: Page' to page and there lay before you'all.you have said'. upon the subject and thus avoid eentredictione,and repetitions.. ' Copying by means of water and AN 1'DITUlt1N LUCK. St. Jacobs Oil' cures rheumatism; of this I am- convinced.. For years I suffered with rheumatism in my left shoulder and right arm, and last fall I was incapable of attending to my -duties, and lay many a night unable to sleep on account of terrible paine.A few weeks, -ago a severe;. attnckf, this_trdiflile struck me, and this time I concluded to try the St. Jacobs Oil, I must acknowledge, with but little confidence in its merits. I :freely, confess that the result has completely aston- ished me. The first application relieved the pain very materially, and' the continued use of only two bottles has completely mire.l me of this chronic evil, and that, after the most eminent physicians and their prescriptions had been of no avail. I therefore consider it a duty to publish the above for the benefit of allsufferers with rheurnatisna and kindred complaints. G. A.
