FROM NEWS LETTER TO NEWSPAPER HIN CAMPB! Postmaster of Boston, was ¢ ing not fully occupied by the duties of his position, he looked for some- thing else to do, and, all unconscious of thecon- sequences of his act, took a step that has pro- foundly influenced the development of America.

His natural center for the “ | of that great world lying outside of the little New Eng- | dand town, as these were received by sailing quent, tt advices” boats or horse-drawn diligences. Being a kindly gossip, he desired to share his news with others. Therefore, he hit upon the idea of sending an occasional letter to the | Governors of the New England colonies, in which he summarized the | current news of the times. At first, his letters appear to have been sent as sealed communications, but presently he came to realize that there could be no harm in leaving them unsealed in order that others might | read them by the way. Each was literally a “news letter,” and they ame to be’so much in demand that it is not surprising to find him | deciding to issue them weekly in printed form for general circulation. Thus “The Boston News Letter,” first published on Monday, April: | 241704, became the pioneer of American newspapers, although it may be mentioned in passing that, on September 15, 1690, one Benjamin Harris, of Boston, published a single issue of a little sheet called “Publick Occurrences,” which was promptly suppressed by the Governor.

Just how hard it is for a man (or a woman, either) with an ach- ing back to nerve himself up to this task, no one but the sufferer can tell. “When my back hurts and irregular secretions warn me of coming trouble, I take Foley eills, a diuretic stimulant for the sidneys.
