Important Facts Relating to Postal
Affairs.

From the United States Mail.
No valuable packages should ever be
mailed unless it is registered.
Send no cash money by mail. 1t is much
safer and cheaper IN the long run to buy a
money order or postal note.
Animals, reptiles live or dead, mot stutfed)
insects, except queen bees, when safely se-
cured, are excluded from the mails.
Nothing is received for mailing that
weighs over four pounds, except in case of a
single book, is for example, bible, diction-
AIRY or history.
Never ask postmaster for credit for post
age stamps, envelopes or box rents. He is
not allowed to graut it.
The issue of a money order on credit is
strictly prohibited under the severest penal
ties. No postmaster should ever be expected
TO thus lay himself liable to criminal prose
cu.ion.
Don't forget that all parcels deposited for
mailing must be so wrapped that they can be
examined without destroying the wrapper,
otherwise letter rates of postage are charged.
Postage stamps of any denomination can
not be exchanged for those OF another, neith-
can they be taken in payment for stamped
envelopes or newspaper wrappers.
The dead letter office is monument TO the
carelessness and stupidity of the American
people. The average number of letters re-
ceyed there daily is about 1900.
Persons presenting money orders for pay
ment, who are unknown, are expected to
prove their identity. The same precautions
enforced in banking institutions are observed
IN postofices.
Postmasters are not obliged to accept coin
or currency mutilated to be uncurrent.
Don't t:y and get all your worn out bills on
them.
All manuscript matter designed for publi-
cation in books, magazines, periodicals or
newspapers, is subject to letter postage un.
less accompanied by proof sheets of same.
Manuscript music is rated in the same man
nrr.
Never rush in Just AT the last moment Just
as the mails are closed and ask the post.

letters in for you; it may cause him needless
delay and Inconvenience by SO doing, esPec-
tally If he accommodates you.
you write letter and address it iueor-
rectly, or II 1t cannot be delivered to the
party addressed, by having your business
card on the envelope, You insure its return
To you. Otherwise it will go to the dead let
ter office.
In all your correspondence whenever it
can be done, give the street and number as
well as the county and state. This saves
much time aud is sure preventative against
errors in delivery. 1t is much better ospcll
the name IN full.
Letters addressed to fictitious persons or
firms cannot be delivered. that is, where the
parties are unknown. This rule is intended
simply to prevent illici, and unlawful cor
rcspondcnce, and would not be enforced
whore the persons are known to be reputable
citizens.
When advertised letters are inquired for,
it is necessary for the person calling for to
state from what place they are expecting cor
rospoudenee. In the general delivery of a
postoiiice the postmaster is supposed to oScr.
else a sound discretion.
