Be Careful In Mailing Packages.

The annual flood of holiday packages
has begun to flow in the U. S. mail.
To and from places near ano far they
will come and go wrapped in all man
ner of ways, addressed in all styles OF
writing. The present is a mighty
good time to say to package-senders,
BE Careful" Wrap your package
securely and address it plainly,-if it
be large package, write the address
ubon it in several places. And be sure
to put your own name and address upon
the wrapper or in the package Par,
cells are very often torn while in tran
sit, torn in such manner as to destroy
the address. Such parcels, unless there
be name or address inside, find their
way to the dead letter office and are
lost to the sender if proof of ownership
cannot be established. Last, but most
important of all, register parcels and
letters Containing articles of any CON
siderable value. The registry fee is
but eight cents, yet it provides an in
surance-of- delivery that is almost alb
solute.
Here's another point well worth not
ing:-To put IA written message into a
parcel and mail it as second, third or
fourth class matter makes the sender
liable to at least g. ten-dollar fine.
There's no escape from it If the de-
ception is discovered, and it's the
postmaster's duty to examine parcels
with view to detecting such frauds.
Send your letter separately as first
class matter. You may enclose with
your parcel card or paper upon
which is written or printed your name
and address; you may also add the Gus
tomary holiday greetings of wish
you Merry Christmas or Happy
New Year" But no personal message
