SOME SHIPPING RULES
Competition of Mails and Express
Companies Cause Change in Rates.

How many Columbians who are
sending Christmas packages know the
difference between rates by mail and
by express? The mails and the ex,
press companies are competitors for
the business but their rates are not
the same. Within a radius of about
eight hundred miles the express com.
panies give cheaper rates.
The only limitation set by the gov.
eminent for sending packages through
the mails to any domestic point is
that they shall not weigh more than
four pounds. The package may be
any shape or size. On this weight,
the maximum charge to any point is
siXty-four cents. at the rate of one
cent an ounce. The rate on a pack.
age of the same weight for trip of
four hundred miles by express would
be forty cents. At radius OF eight
hundred miles. the express rate and
he mail rate practically are the
same. Beyond that tho mails are
cheaper.

FINE ART OF LETTER OPENING.

In Russia one letter in every ten
passing through the post is opened
by the authorities as a matter of
course. Indeed the postal authorities
of every country have experts who
have raised letter opening to q fine
art. Some kinds of paper can be
steamed open without leaving any
traces, and this simple operation is
finished by reburnishing the flap
with bone instrument. In the case
of a seal a matrix is taken by means
Of new bread before breaking the
wax. When other methods fail the
envelope is placed between pieces of
wood with edge projecting one
twentieth of an inch. The edge Of
the envelope is first flattened, then
roughened and finally slit open.
Later hair line of strong white
gum is applied and the edges united
under pressure.

SMALL MEN FOR DETECTIVES

Mayor Gaynor Of New York wants

only kind of giants needed as de-

tall, had called on the mayor, say
ing he had passed the examination,
