HOLIDAY
BUSINESS STARTS
ALREADY FOREIGN MAIL FEELS
EFFECT OF THE COMING
CHRISTMAS.
MANY PEOPLE UNABLE TO UN
DERSTANO WHAT RULES
PREVAIL.

The foreign mail rush which is at
tendent upon the holiday season is
already beginning to make itself felt
in the local postoffice, and local en-
ployes Judging by The pulse OF the.
foreign mail matter, are inclined to-
believe thar the coming holiday sea-
son win Guido in business al others
for many wears. The annual rush
in the postal department is dreaded
! by clerks. stamp men and carriers
alike, and the preliminary to the
heavy work being this year so early
aud so strong. awakens apprehension
/ in the minds of postmaster and EN-
ployes, and visions are nightly
dreamed of swamped Office, undeTiv.
cred mails, overworl and fatigue.
OF course. the bulk OF the holiday
work will lie in the transmission and
delivery Of packages. and that fact
but adds to the fear of the employees
Many do not understand what is re-
CURED in the way OF preparing pack
ages for shipment through the mails.
It would he well for those who are
not familiar with department rules to
study them and ascertain what they
mus do in order insure prompt de
livery.
In the FIRST place and above all.
return card should be placed on ev-
cry package in order TO insure its re-
turn to sender in case address is NOT
located.
In regard to the prices for mailing
packages, merchandise to the extent
OF four pounds may be mailed at the
rate OF one cent an ounce, provided
the shipment is only to points within
the United States. Foreign shipments
are limited to eleven pounds at the.
same rate. Photographs and books
may be mailed at the rate OF two
cards bearing the name Cf the sender
are allowable, o. no me 'sa"~s -..ust
be enclosed.
Early mailing would necessarily in
sure early delivery of goods and it
is advisable to have articles put into
the mails at the earliest possible mo
ment delivery being thereby assured
and better satisfaction gained,
The postal department is making
another vigorous protest against those
people who insist on sending Unset
covered postcards through the mail
Ienclosed in an envelope and bearing
la one cent stamp either on the en-.
velope or the card. or enclosed in
an envelope bearing two cent stamp
on the card For those who must ap-
pease the gods Of friendship with
tinsel postcards it is well to remenr
Der in sending a tinsel card through
the mail to place the stamp on the
outside of the envelope and in case
message is written on the card
make 1t two cent stamp. There
can be no deviation from this rule
and cards mailed in. other condition
are inadmissible To the dead letter

Change o. Heart.

Change o. Heart
President Eliot illustrated the
other day that it was not true that
the colleges were the hotbeds OF
socialism in America. He said that
socialism could not come until man
changed utterly-until he changed
from a selfish TO an unselfsh being
President Elliot illustrated the
present disposition of man with a
brief story.
An ardent socialist" he said
lived in a country village. He did
not work he had no money. All his
time seemed to ne passed in the gen
eral store. preaching rabid socialism
and borrowing tobacco.
Suddenly this man disappeared.
Nothing was seen of him for ten
5ears. Then. one day. he turned up
again in his old haunts.
Well, Jabe, said the storekeep-
er. you're still socialist. l suppose ?
Not on your life Jabez answered
warmly, I got a COW now Wash

In Hpple-pie Order

q know, said Mr.. Gwillplillbly.
that it grows tiresome with me al
ways asking questions, but l would
like ii If somebody would tell me the
origin OF the phrase in applepie or.
der meaning, as you know. that the
thing or place so characterized is 10
the very slickest and trimmest sort of
shape, homely, perhaps, but attractive
and wholesome. 1t originated in
New England. no doubt; this use OF
pie as a basis Of comparison seems
clearly 70 indicate that; but how did
apple pie thus come to be set up as
the symbol of superior excellence?
Il suppose it was partly because
of apple pies priority of invention,
for / imagine it will be conceded that
apple was the first pie; but suppose
that its continued use in this manner
has been due to the apple pies un-
brokenly continued prominence in
all good pie qualities.
1T could not have been long after
the invention of apple pie before
pumpkin pie was introduced, and
mince is certainly an Old time pie,
and so likewise il cranberry, and in
a. pie pie order certainly could no. at
once have become so firmly inIench-
ed among the contemIoraneous native
New England forms of speech as 10
preclude the possibility of it's being
supplanted by in pumpkin pie order
or in mace pie order If these not

II we are to have a pie figure to de-
note excellence that the pie should
be apple pie.
AS it made in New England
homes by New England housewives
truly there is no pie like apple pie
such as this, With pie crust that
somehow seems never to be equalled
in the production of any other kitchen
and with contents of surprising pie
JOY, this apple pie when it has finally
been made ready for eating.
For this pie, the real pie of n
England, goes through a final glorify-
ing process after it has been baked.
When they have taken the pie from
the oven and placed it on the kitchen
table they deity remove the top crust
so deity that It is never broken nor
even its edges married. and when this
delightful disk of crust has been re-
moved they spread around on
the surface of the pies filling a little
fine butter, and some people sprinkle
little grated nutmeg-though l can't
say | fancy the nutmeg-and now
they add sugar, and now you replace
the top crust. You see the idea of ad-
ding the sugar after the pie is baked?
With at least some of the sweetening
left to be added now you do not have
a thoroughly sweetened pie. but you
get still the keen taste of the apple,
and you get the sweetening too, but
you blend these delightfully."- in the
eating.
"And thus prepared the apple pie is
ready to eat. And 1t may be eaten
hot, and in that condition there are
few things more delightful; but as
for myself prefer this pie just at
the moment when 1t has first got cool
"Of course. it will be understood
that the apple pie in this form is a
work of love and pride to be found
only in homes and to be had and en-.
joyed as it's very best only where one
can get home to eat it. But there are
New England homes and some else
where, | hope, where apple pie is
so made, and though you may think
the weather too hot to discuss It, that
such apple pie should have been
coined into phrase signifying every
thing that Is good is 10 me no wonder,
1t is in this pies simple ex Hence,
believee, that we find the origin of in

too rarely found in his day. as it is
IN the present. This was a strong
Discrimination to speak i'll even of a
person for whom he cherished no
special liking. When hard pressed
as to the opinion he held in regard
TO people he would refuse to answer
questions directly rather than say
something disagreeable.
This diplomatic method did not al
ways answer the purpose of keeping
his opinions a secret, however, as,
for example, his answer to an indi.
vidual who was persistent in asking
Kemble what he thought of the abil-
tiles of an actor named Conway, who
was a handsome man and a great
favorite with certain people.
Mr.. Conway, sir" replied Kemble,
SIS a very tall young man."
"Oh, yes, of course!" said the in
quirer, but what do you think Of
him?'
Il think. remarked Kemble, imper-
turably. that Mr.. Conway IS very
tall young man." and moth ing more
would he say on that subject. Never
theless, there is little doubt that the
interrogation went away with a pretty
close idea of the great actors opinion
of the little one.
The effect upon the listener was
much the same as that produced by
a German cello player who was asked
his opinion of a violinist, who was
making quite a stir in the musical
