The Protestant Episcopal Bishop Of

The question Of our public schools

Mailing Christmas Packages.

There are a number of regulations
governing the sending of parcels by
mail, but these are reasonable. writes
Mrs. Hamilton Mott in a timely article
entitled Sending Packages by mali
IN the December Ladies Home Journal.
The following apply to all places with.
IN the United States, Mexico and Can
ada. these and few other restrictions
which will be touched upon later
governing the sending of packages to
other countries: All packages must be
wrapped so that an examination Is
possible by the postal authorities. and
It is well to facilitate this by wrappin0
with this end in view, although this
does not mean that they must be left
open. For this reason, unless a mack
age is sent by registered mail at letter
rates, II must not be sealed. Use only
a good quality OF wrapping paper, as
the cheaper varieties are apt to tear
when the package is opened tor ex-
animation. Tie the twine so that the
knots NAV he opened readily. and
leave sufficient entra length for re-
fastening. Liquids are allowed to be
sent only when the cases in which
they are packed have been submitted
for examination and approval to the
pOst-Otlce authorities. Explosives
and intlammable materials are in the
nature of things forbidden, as is the
transportation in the mails of dead or
lieve animals, fruit or vegetables.
Candies and cakes should be secured
in tin boxes. Pocket knives are per.
mitted when they are securely bound
with wire to prevent any possibility of
blades opening. China and glass are
transported when securely packed.
Jewelry or other articles Of value
should be packed in cotton In a box.

AFFLICTED WITH CRAMPS.

A new symptom this year is that the
patient is often afflicted with cramps.
During past years there have been
very few cases where cramps were ex.
perienced. This year the number of
cases where the afflicted person has the
cramps is large. The number of old
persons afflicted with the grip is much
larger than the number of Young peo-
pie. Very few people are confined to
their beds, as compared with three
years ago. Most of the patients. how.
ever, are confined to their house.
Old persons walking along the street
have been known to be snd6anIv
stricken aud fall, as If they had been
taken with a paralylic stroke. People
going to bed at night. feeling in the
best Of health, will wake in the morn.
ing and be afflicted with a severe at
tack OF the grip.
Some OF the doctors think there are
from ten to fifteen patients, il not more.
to each physician in the city. There
are about seventy-fve doctors in the
city. Among the poor people there
are q number of cases. No doctor is
summoned, on account of hard times.
until the disease reaches such a state
that the afflicted person would die if
medical aid was not called in.

The Grip is a About.
NEARLY AN EPInEAlIC OF THE MAJ Any
IN WILMINGTON.

The grip is again prevalent in VII.
mlngton, says the Norainq Nesrs. No
estimate of the number Of cases in this
city IS o6tainable, but it is know that
the number Of people suffering from
grip or some Of the other diseases with
symptoms ofinf1uenZa is large.
The disease is nearly an epidemic
and If the present rate of increase Of
cases continues a few DAYS it will quite
If not exceed the epidemic of three
years ago. The physicians report that
most of the calls and visits they make
are to prescribe for the grip.
Possibly the disease is somewhat
milder than it was three years ago. or
else the doctors have become better ac
quainted with the disease and can over
come It at first much more easily than
they did several years ago. The svmp.
toms are the same as always. When
the patient is first stricken the disease
resembles severe cold, The limbs
ache in the joints, the throat is sore.
there is a hackingcough and fever. The
patient often vomits.

Redfern. who suppose is let into all

tells me that he is glad to say that the
Empire style, although introduced by
many Of the leading houses, is n0t il
success. It's only advocates are ladies
whose anatomieS will not bear the Seye-
erer test of tight-htting gown. 1t is a
convenient style for the "hIgh kicker"
who dupes the public into thinking
that her length OF limb is the apex Of
weil-trained agility. 1t is qu amt on the
freshest Of BUGS, but for those who
really move the world of fashion there
is style which, although not so artistic,
is more calculated to show of their
charms.
The Toreador bodice over full, rich
SILK or velvet ground, generally made as

lngS of velvet, with steel or jet TRIM
mlngs running up 10 the throat from
the waist between each puff. Many OF
the skirts are decorated with steel or jet
