Postmaster Ripple yesterday received notlllcatlon from Peiry S. Heath, fltst assistant postmaster general, that the department Is considering the Idea of making a change In the money otilor form. Knclosed with the communica tion was a blank form pad of the pros pective money order blank and the postmaster Is requested t(j experiment and later file the results of the test with the department at Washington. D. C. The communication iccltea that on Peiu ,1 next the contract for the sup plying of the piesent money order form will expire nnd It Is the Intention of the department not to renew. A new slvle Is desired which hall be an liu pioxemerit along the lines of first, con venience In nrrnngement, clearness In text, simplicity In design; second, be Inexpensive and adapted to either litho graphic or plate printing process; thlid, such device as shall absolutely prevent dissimilarity between the names and amounts In the order and like partlculats appealing In the ad vice, and shall prevent transposition of numbers (the order and advice hearing different numbers); fourth, a receipt to the remitter; llflh, no mechanical device to be used as an adjunct to the Issue of orders. The two latter desired lesults are the most Important. At present the remit ter gets no receipt. The clerk now has to use a rule to tear a money order so as to Indicate on a tabulated margin the number of dollars and cents the order calls for. The present stvle of older Is large and rather ungainly und Is known as the "marginal" order. The new stvle put up in check book form greatly lesembles a check, and Is styled the 'manifold." With the new style, ono files an ap plication as heretofoie. The clerk writes the order on his blank and a duplicate Is made by carbon steel upon a white slip beneath. This Is the ad vice and to this Is attached the re mitter's receipt. On the older Is writ ten the amount and date, with a blank space for payee's acknowledgment nnd cancellation date. On the ndvlce ap pears only and In duplicate the amount, but there Is a space for the remitter's name and address nnd for the cancel lation. The reclpt which the remitter gets bear.s the date and amount. The points actually gained bv the new form are no older can lie raised, and the handwriting on order being duplicated by carbon on the ndvlce, proves genuineness. Should the new style be adopted for domestic use, the same form will bo used for Interna tional orders. lierause purely vegetable-yet thor ouch, prompt, healthful, satisfactory 's is grown on practically virgin soil Dr.Goodfellow in New York Herald.
