10c "Divrei Chaim" stamp

OK, here's another mystery to me.  Let's hope that this one will be as easy for you all as the last one was!

10 cents?  10 what? The English text I can read says, "Yeshiva [and?]. . . Divrei Chaim  . . . of Jerusalem" and "Affiliated [with?] Palestine." 

So: Israeli?  Or not a stamp at all?

I don't read Hebrew.  Maybe you do?

Thanks for input--

Divrei Chaim charity stamp (not valid for postage). Not sure what year, although I do know it comes in other colors. Since it mentions Palestine instead of Israel, it is pre-1948.

The English text reads YESHIVAH AFFILIATED INST. (Institute) DIVREI CHAIM OF JERUSALEM PALESTINE

Divrei Chaim (Chaim Halberstam) is a famous 19th Century Rabbi. I assume the stamp is for a school that adheres/studies his teachings. Beyond that, not sure which actual organization issued it, although it appears to benefit that school.
