HOW THE PARCEL POST HELPS IN BUSINESS.
Shown in Book Sent Out by the Postal
 Department.

\ book issued and sent to the post masters throughout the country coE- taInS along with other interesting and valuable information all article dealing with the effect that the parcel post has had on the business Of country as well as city merchants.
 It is now poSsi.;ie for housewives to have delivered at the door in time for the noon meal meat CT even groceries, for cost which is con1pa arativeIy. slight For instance if a resident living back two or three miles in the country wanted some meat and perhaps a pound or two of Gutter and some in CideGtals it would be possible for her to have the goods delivered in the morning by R. F D. foI. 2 nominal cost. SupposiEg that the goods she or deTed came to twenty po-rds, the cost would be but fifteen cents; for thirty pounds it would be bat twenty cents This. Cf course. applies only in the To- cal zone. The same idea applies not only to housewives desiring goods, but to others ccsii-iT7E various articles.
 Apparently there a2s been 9 raista k er idea, regarding the cost Of sending 5oods in the local zone by parcel post, fCE q daE or tEO ago a man came into the local poStofglce to send fire pounds of nails q few miles pack into the coun- tTI'. Had i2e been aware of tue scafe of prices he would have UndoubtedI put up larger quantity, but he, aa co many others thought that the cost would be too great tO make tae send InS Of q larger quaDt.ts- practical Fivs poJa15;s cost seven cents, ten pounds cost ton cents, fifteen pounds twelve cents twenty EoUn5s ccst fifteen cents, thirty PoU1Gs cost twenty cents forty pounds cost twenty-five cents ard Tfly, pounds cost thirty cents. This scale of prices shows plainly the proportion of tl2E drop iH cost as tl?a weight Of the article sent is increased.

NOT
RELIEVED BY
sheridan

Philippine exporters did not use the
United States army transport Sheri-
! dan in an attempt to relieve the re-
| ported congestion OF freight awaiting
! Shipment to the United States.
| A disagreement between the army
| quartermaster department and those
seeking an outlet for their wares re-
suited in the Sheridan leaving Mani
la for Nagasaki and Honolulu without
pound of commercial freight. RI.
The controversy narrowed down to
the manner in which minimum
charge of IS ton should be levied.
One side contended that the tariff
should be fixed on a basis OF ton
weight, while the quartermaster de-.
partment held out for measurement.
The difference meant the saving Of
several thousand dollars.
The efforts of Goyernor-general Har-
rison and Manila businessmen to for
ward merchandise from the Philip
pines to the United States are now
said to have come to nought. The
Sheridan steamed to berth at Pier
6 this morning lightly laden. The
vessel took about 1000 tons of coal
at Nagasaki.
Captain Murphy is in command OF
the troopship, which entered port with
a total of 694 passengers in the sew
eral classes. The Sheridan left II

passenger. The vessel will carry 81
cabin 81 second-class and GA troop
passengers to San Francisco. There
are no regular organizations on board. |
Officers report some very rough
weather in steaming from the Philip
pines to Japan. After leaving Maya

of cargo 1t carried. -.
