the other day when in a london suburban postoffice he bought a halfpenny stamp and discovered lhat it was a freak with the head of the king printed on both sdes that an error like this should oc cur at all is a chance in a million the printers of this particula- sheet were astounded at the accident and although they print at least 2-1000- 000 stamps a week they havenever made such a nistake befor apparently the reason for the tauble printing was that a corner of a sheet in passing through the ma chine turned over with the result that the blanket took the ink and impression and when the next sheet was passed through an impression was made on its gummed side the first faulty sheet was detected and thrown- out unfortunately for the collector six of the fortyfive stamps on the freak sheet had already bce sold bit he immediately bought the re maining ones it is nit known exact ly how much these thirtynine stamps are worth but their value is esti mated at at least 50 the other six stamps were apparently not detected at freaks and although they are too valuable the chances of their turning up are rather remote gems from lifes scrapbaok purity every pure thought is a glimpse of god

book public here than in the states how good a bookbuying bookbor rowing bookreading public is the ca nadian public an answer is given by mr hugh eayrs in the twentieth century from the publishers point of view there is a great difference be tween a small population scattered over an enormous territory such as canada a very large population with numerous large centres in a somewhat smaller country like the united states and a population much more concen trated in a country many times smaller than either great britain there are also also many differences of taste in the three countries mr eayrs estimates that if the peoples in each of these countries tho united states the british isles and canada were all so made that they were a possible public for pre cisely the same kind of rending mat ter there should be in the united states a bookbuying public twelve times as large as canadas and in the british isles a public five times that of canada he finds however that we have per capita not so good a book public as england but a bet ter one than the united states fig ures of hook importation and domes tic manufacture for the three coun tries show england first canada sec ond
