Since the change ia postal regula
tons which now permits the use of
stamps to the value of 10 cents IN
place Of the special delivery stamp,
the mount Of such mail has greatly
increased 1t is due 10 this increase
that peculiar features Of the service
were brought TO the attention of the
postoffice department officials.
SO frequently has complaint been
made recently that an Investigation
resulted. which brought to light the
fact that a large percentage of spe-
cial delivery letters contain yalu-
ables. An official stated that fully
four out of five persons believe a
Special delivery stamp on q letter
means security.
He points out that the practice Of
sending money or valuable papers In
special delivery letters has been in
dulged in so much recently as to
make the letter less safe than one with
only the 2-cent stamp affixed. Since
there are dishonest men among the
Ithree-quarter million employees of the
postal service who handle mail, just
as there are dishonest men in all
walks Of life, the thief has learned to
look for v%aluables in the special de-
livery envelopes.
The special delivery letter is ham
died as Is the other first-ciass mail,
It TX only when II reaches the office
Of delivery that the additional stamp
means anything to the postal EN-
ploye. This explains why such a large
percentage OF special delivery letters
20 astray. as compared with the
amazingly small percentage Of other
mail. The only remedy is publicity.
and a change in the habits of those
persons who use the special delivery
instead Of the registry system when
sending money or other yaluables.-

Dainty Baby Sack.

The dainty flannel sacks and kimo-
nos that the baby wears are usually
cut from a good pattern and then
taken TO some art needlework place to
be stamped.
This is not always convenient, and
it is well to know simple borders that
can be put on at home.
Most of these small garments are
furnished with buttonhole scallop.
which can be worked around the ends
Of .thimble or spool. y daintier seal
lop is made by using a spool of 200
thread and drawing halfway around
it.
A coar1e deep scallOp never looks
well on baby garments.
An easier way is to draw a series
of scallops on stiff paper and transfer
II to the material with transfer paper.
Shift the paper and design when the

HER uNPARDONARLE SIN.

She slept upon n feather bed
And dozcd into a dream.
For all al once she stood alone
Beside a wide. swift stream.
Then through the mist there came a boat
To bear her to the gate
Where Peter had her pedigree
All chalked down on his slate.
And soon she stood before the bar.
But trembled not with feai.
She turned unto the guardian there
And said: My titles clear.
Just open wide that pearly gate
And hand me that big crown.
And yonder golden harp so bright
Be quick to hand me down."
Don't be so fast" St Peter said.
Regrets. Can't let you in.
Twas you down in your earthly life
Did the unpardoned sin"
"Oh. no! oh. nor' she shrilIy cried.
''Who now has come to you and lied?
Why. / was always in my pew
And paid my salary when twas due.
II often gave n patch of silk
When they were working on quilt
And baked a great big layer cake
When they festival did make.
Il fed the preachers custard pie
Hush now cried Peter. That's enough
Don't get off such an awful bluff.
You fed them ROSTERS that were tough.
why. even unto Brother Brown,
/ The toothlcss minister of town,
You served n skinny chicken hen

And willingly below was led.
Not even last word she said.
But asked f0r a scat way up head.
