n Is Quite Possible Under British
Parcel Post Rules.

The parcel post has made its useful
ness felt In many ways, unexpected as
well as foreseen. But the English par
eel post does one surprising thing that
has not yet been introduced into our
own system.
An Englishman wished to reach
customer living In remote part of
BALKAN, one OF the suburbs Of London.
and 1t was very necessary that he find
him quickly. Knowing nothing of the
district, he called ut the general post
office at st. Martin lie Grand to con
suit directory. On explaining his
case to a clerk he was amazed to learn
that he could be sent to the address
by parcel post by paying a fee Of
threepence a mile.
The gentleman had never heard of
such a thing, and 1t is said that very
few persons In England know that 1t
can be done. He was placed in charge
OF messenger who was familiar with
all parts OF the city and was soon on
his way. The boy carried a printed
slip on which was written "A descrip
h"h VI t"O P'itSi III Nuhi Sc uiiuc'
the heading Article Required to BE
Delivered" and before leaving the Gus
TONER'S house both the customer and
the gentleman had to put their sigma
lures on the paper.
The limit In weight for anything de
livered by parcel post In England is
generally understood to be eleven
pounds. but there is one clause that
reads. "A person may he conducted by
express messenger TO any address on
payment OF the mileage fee" Youths

DANCES AND DIES.
The May Fly Lives Only a Day, but
Has a Gay Time While He Lasts.


Foolish insect He lives only one
day and spends the greater part of It
dancing You've doubtless been a
guest at one of their dances, held over
stream on IA warm summers evening
You've seen the Insects In swarms,
leaIYng up and down In fancy steps
and intricate figures. You've attended
the dance of the May dies.
There Is general supposition that
all May flies live only for day. As a
matter of fact, they will live several
days IL the atmosphere isn't too dry
Then again they may survive only
through a single night Even this i'm
dancing
This brief lived characteristic. how
ever. applies only to the winged exist
ence of the insect. Before they grow
wings they pass through several stages
from the larvae. which live In water
through several molts and transfer
nations. So while Ii is May fly only
for short time it exists for Il longer
time, aud perhaps we can pardon Ii If
1t dances during the brief period Ii
lives In the air
The fly has two pairs of wings, one
pair much larger than the other, and
two or three long bristle-iike tails Its
mouth Is small and soft and not made
for eating. The May fly has no time to
eat. He's too busy dancing -Philadel
