FACTS YOU SHOULD KNOW
ABOUT MAILING PARCELS
Valuable Information is Cleaned
From the United States
Postal Guide.
MUST NOT ENCLOSE PACKAGES

An official OF the postofficc has re-
cent, gone through the pages of the
United States official postal guide
which pertain To parcels post and hes
summarized the important points OF
Information which senders of mail
should have. 1t is given here in part:
The parcels post rate is II cents per
pound. Eleven pounds may be sens
To Austria, Australia, Great Britain,
Germany. Norway and Sweden. Pack
ages 10 Britain and France are not
registerable. Letters must not ac-
company or be written on any parcel.
IF it Is discovered and il is likely
TO be by the inspectors of the mails,
the package will be held TO be dealt
with later and the rules covering such
cases viii apply. Parcels must no;
contain separately addressed packages,
thar is, packages addressed 10 persons
other than the one named In the out
side address. If such enclosed pack
ages be detected they must be sent
forward singly charged with new and
distinct parcels post rates.
4 parcel must not be mailed i'm a
letter box. Take it to the postohice
Every package should bear a complete
and legible address. should be marked
conspicuously parcel post and bear
tho name and address OF the sender"
Here are the instructions as TO
packing: Every parcel must be Sc
curely and substantially packed; bur
in such a way that IL can be opened
without damaging its cover in order
thai its contents may be easily exam
ined by postmasters and customs Off
clals. Boxes with lids screwed or

Ccpr for mailing, parcels not properly

must be fully prepaid. The rate on

REPORT OF MICH. STATE
BANKS SHOWS PROSPERITY
Statement of Commissioner Best
Since Organization Of
Department.
PLENTY OF MONEY in STATE

The report of the state banking
commissioner for the period ending
November 10, on the condition of the
$40 state banks and five trust COM
panies. shows the greatest growth In
the aggregate business of Michigan
banks since the organization of the
department in 1889.
Since September /, there has been an
increase in the savings and CONNER
clal deposits of $6,SO1,S94.S9, and as
compared with the corresponding re-
port year ago, il. shows an increase
in the savings deposits . $2as55,2S7-
AS.
The report of Michigan state banks
on November IS, 1909, was the first re-
port to be made under the new banking
law. as amended, providing for the
separation of commercial and savings
reserves and commercial savings in
vestments.
The banks In nearly every instance
have met the requirements Of the
amendments, land the following will
indicate the division of both classes
of business.
The savings. legal reserve maintained
Nov. 16, 1909, was $26,112.1179S; the
amount required was $22,693,5SS.6f,
making an excess over the require
ments of $3,41S,5S9.37. The savings
cash reserve maintained Nov. 16, 1909,
was $S,539, SS6.S9 which exceeded re-
quirements by S975,S57.S6. The COM
mercial legal reserve maintained Nov.
16. 1909, amounted to $7214,63595,
which exceeded the requirements by
$175,6650S
In other words, the total maintained
by Michigan state banks on Nov. Is,
1909. exceeded the requirements of the
law by $12,3S1SS7.20. To meet the re-
quirements of the amended banking
law, Michigan state banks should have
had $T4,693, O47.66 of their savings de-
posits invested i'm real estate mortgage
es and bonds specified by law. The
total of these investments amounted
10 $95,8T7 ,547.06, or an excess over re-
quirements of $20,6S4, 499.40. The bank
ing department has taken the position
that the ssavings Investments and re-
serve must at, least equal sthe amount
of the savings deposits.shnd the above
statenient shows that while the saw

SEARCHING Party FINDS
MISSING ANNEX HUNTER

The SUCCESS whirhl gRttended the
efforts of searching party organized
in Ahmeek location yesterday to look
for James Minnesota, n miner, who
left home on Sunday morning, may
possibly have saved the life of that
individual After searching from
early yesterday morning. until yester-
day afternoon at $50 o'clock, the
missing man was finally located at the
lake shore. about four miles away. He
was much fatlgued and weak from
want of food. and had he been COM
PEELED to spend another night in the
woods, IL is possible that the exposure
would have been fatal
1t appears that Minnesota left his
home on Sunday morning, and plann-
ed to hunt rabbits i'm the vicinity of the
Seneca location. He lost his way and
was unable to return home Sunday
night. His relatives and friends be-
came alarmed when he failed to return
Monday morning. and the matter was
reported to the authorities. A search
ing party was organized and after
spending the day in the woods, Minne-
sofa was found as described
During the afternoon, the big mine
whistle at Mohawk was blown at in
tervals throughout the afternoon, to
aid the searchers and to attract the
attention of the lost man. He was
none the worse for his experience af-
ter he had been given a chance to
rest and get warm. He resumed his
work as usual today.

CURLING SEASON SOON.
First Games Will Be Played at the
Palestra This Week.

The curriers' of Laurium are prepar-
ing for the resumption of the great
winter sport at the Palestra and II is
expected that the first games VIII be
played this week. Contrary to expec-
tation, the curriers' have not taken
steps to erect a rink OF their own TINS
year and will arrange for the use OF
the Palestra during the morning hours
as in the past Although the ice is not
always perfect enough for the best
curling, il is thought that some good
games will be played this winter. The
lovers of the "stanes" in Calumet VIII
put at least two Kinks upon the ice this
year and games viii be played with
the Portage Lake broom wielders
1t is likely that Calumet will enter
at least one rink i'm some of the big
bonspiels which are conducted at the
500 and Duluth. This would have been
done last winter, but the scarcity or
seasoned players interfered with the
early practice and made realization
of plans impossible.
