destroyed as soon as discovered, what.

destroyed as soon as discovered, what
ever its value.
But there is an official exception to
tho snake rule. The professors at the
Smithsonian often receive reptiles in
packages which come by mail franked
to them. The postal authorities per-
NIT this, but the clerks are not in
sympathy with the exception to the
rule. 1t is not at all comfortable to
hear the warming sound of "rattler"
from perforated package, none too
strong perhaps, which you are posi-
bly, pounding with cancelling stamp.
What people will put in the mails
was illustrated at the Worlds Fair by
heavy AK, which came to the Dead
Letter Office one day wrapped in
simple piece of paper with the address
missing. It's owner was never found.
1t was unmailable matter anyway, for
edged tools not cased are forbidden
the mails. Nevertheless, the Dead
Letter sale always includes quantities
of knives. People who want to mail
small articles are utterly ignorant of
the postal regulations or else are will
ing to take chances of evading them.
The Christmas season is always har-
vest time for the Dead Letter Office.
In the first place there is always the
crop of gifts sent to foreign addresses
which do not comply with the postal
regulations. Aside from printed mat
ter, articles sent as gifts cannot be
forwarded to some foreign countries
unless the postage is fully prepaid at
the letter rate; and where O parcels
post has been established and special
rates are made for merchandise, it is
necessary to comply with certain reg
ulations concerning prepayment of
postage, observance of customs regu-
lations, etc. 1t is not safe to ship
parcels matter abroad without consult
ing the local postal authorities.
A frequent cause of the non-delivery
of mail matter is the failure of the
sender to wrap it carefully. Nearly
20, 200 parcels without wrappers go to
the Dead Letter Office every year.
Many of these, of course, are maya
zines. No attempt is made to find
the owners Of these, and they are not
sold. Under the regulations, all mag.
azines, pamphlets, illustrated papers,
picture cards, ETC., among the "dead"
parcels are sent to Washington hos
pitfalls, etc. ,and II, 900 of these articles
go to them every year.-Boston Tran

WISE WORDS.

Application brings success.
Meddlers are always annoying.
1t oft saves woe to pay as You go.
All judges are not what they seem.
Innocence rarely seeks concealment.
Every misery missed is a new mercy.
Old age should never be ridiculed.
Those can conquer who think they
can.
War is premeditated murder by Ma
tions.
Art is the sublimation of the arti.
fetal.
Truth to be effective needs no orna,
ment.
What breaks one heart makes an.
other.
Expect the best, but get ready for
the worst.
A woman's brain doesn't empty into
her heart.
Man, if you will sell out, don't sell
for song.
An impulse should be kept on ice
for time.
Repeated effort is generally finally
rewarded.
Don't trust O man who is too ready
to trust you.
The early bird is bagged by tho
early hunter.
The truest wisdom is resolute de-
termination.
Shoot folly flying, sitting, standing
or swimming.
Ingratitude is, unfortunately, not a
penal offense.
Violent argument is never match
for cool reason.
Advertisements are the legs that
business walks on.
Credit has led many man into
financial perdition.
A man is the most critical with the
woman he best likes.
Truth dawns, but should never be
permitted to become dusk.

Oregon's Bold Bandits,

John w. Schultz, President of the
First National Bank of Hillsboro, Ore,
was held up on a country road recently
by four masked men. They took him
to clump of brush by the roadside,
and having bound him, secured the
keys to the bank and compelled him to
give them the combination to the vault
Two of the men started for the bank
while the others remained on guard
over Mr.. Schultz. The two men re-
turned and said they could not get into
the vault and that Mr.. Schultz had given
them the wrong combination. After
considerable parleying and many
threats they started with Mr.. Schultz
Tor town, but when the outskirts of
the town were reached they turned
him loose and disappeared. There is
evidence that the robbers had been to
the bank, but got nothing.

A Notable Polar Bear.

The large polar bear which for
twenty-three years had lived in the
menagerie of the Geological Society,
London, died recently after O fort
nights illness. The bear was pre-
sented to the society by B. L. Smith,
who brought it home from an Arctic
voyage in 1871. Frank Buckland then
described 1t as ''about the size of o
Newfoundland dog, but more short
and stumpy, with splendid shaggy
coat of long, yellow hair" In its long
life at the gardens, under the same
careful management by which another
specimen of the same species was kept
for thirty-six years in the menagerie,
it grew to size rarely equaled, even
by the largest polar bears killed in the
Arctic regions, and its weight was esti-
mated at three-quarters of a ton.
though during its illness it refused
food and became much emaciated.
