Additional Labors.

Talking to postal clerk this week
about the additional labor of the pre-
sent giving season in the mail cars, he
said it was of no particular use to ask
people to send their presents early, be-
cause they won't do it, but he asked us
asked US to tell the people to be sure
and wrap things up we'll and securely
Thin paper boxes, without padding of
any kind and tied with piece of cot.

pie the most trouble.
This kind of mail matter is thrown
into bags in heaps, and at some central
points, sometim mes hundreds or thous.
ands of these bags are piled on each
other in heaps as big as house. Some
of the bags may have two or three tons
weight thus piled on top of them-and
then what happens to the thin paper
box.
If the parcel is very small as sometimes
happens, don't write the address on the
package, but tie on regular shipping
tag and tie it strong,
If the article is at all valuable, or
breakable, have it registered. 1t costs
eight cents more, but it will go compar-
atively safe, because 1t will be handled
far more carefully, in it's journey. Not
that the package will be lost but be-
cause of more care IN handling. But
it is strange fact that In postage mat
ters most people will strive to save few
cents, in every possible way, and the
same people will step right out Of the
post-office and spend double the amount
in candy or cigars or some other extra
vagance.
Don't write letters in this sort of mail
it makes the whole thing liatle to let
ter postage. Uncle Sam allows the
sender to say "Merry Christmas" to
and from, or some little thing like that
but that's all. But tie 'em tight and
strong anyway.

wife. who was then a member. the judge
declares that all contracts secured by the
firm at that time we're illegal He allows
the firm the cost of the work on five fin

lie decides that the mayor was right in
annuliing the contracts for the unfinished
work The McNichols say they are sat
ished with this, however, and Will not
fight the case further.
In his opinion the court took occasion
to make some pertinent remarks regard
