The cheque must accompany the mail matter at the time it is posted. The cheque is to be drawn as follows: "Pay to the Postmaster of ... for deposit to credit of Receiver General." R. M. COULTER. Deputy Postmaster General. [253] =Weekly Philatelic Era=, XVIII: 63. Electrotypes of the "stamp" shown were furnished to all offices where there was a large output of the class of matter described, and the permit number was printed in with the impression when the order under which it was issued was being struck off. The "stamp" is usually printed in black, but has been seen in dark blue. In the stamp account for the year ending 30th June, 1903, no returns were given for mailings under these "Permits", but in 1904 we find that "Postage Paid in Cash on 3d Class (Printed) Matter" is given as $53,970.47, while in 1910 it had risen to $256,468.20--a quite respectable amount for the use of the "Permits".
