The postal department is using ev-
cry effort to encourage Christmas
sending, although no false hopes of
quick delivery are held out. Supple
mental instructions are printed in viz
tually every language, including Chi
nese and Japanese, on how to take
out a money order, and they have
been found very useful. The Chinese
Christmas, of course, does not fall on
the same day as it does in this coun-
try, but the Chinese are inclined to
make presents during the American
holidays as we'll as their own.
Some Suspensions.
Norway, Sweden and Denmark
come in for good share OF the
Christmas money orders. Most OF
their former citizens in this country
appear prosperous, it is declared, and
they are liberal at holiday times.
Many persons who desired to send
holiday remembrances to friends IN
Belgium, Egypt, Mexico and Portu-
gal, as well as Austria, have been
surprised to learn, recently, that the
money order business has been sus,,
pended, owing to the fact the United
States has no Conventions" as pos
tai agreements are called, with them.

ness usu..lly stops about December III.
Recovery of funds has been made more
difficult by the war, and claims for un-
collected orders now require about

SOME MATRIMONIAL MAXIMS
Certain Dos" and "Don'ts" Which
Promote Domestic Team
work Every Day.

| hold fast to the private MAXIM
that hardly anything is uncomfortable II
one sets up that all mankind could
not give one a quite worthy mate
But there is another alienation; un-
derstanding not only that one is mar
ried to somebody else, but also that
somebody else is married to oneself
and that it is quite as hard tor the
other party. There are many excellent
things to be done. Here are a few:
|. Do not open each others letters.
(For one reason you might not like
the contents) And try not to look
liberal il you don't even glance at the
address or the postmark.
2. Vary your pursuits, your conver,-
sation and your clothes. If required,
vary your hair.
3. IF you absolutely must be SIN
cere, let it be in private.
4. Especially for wives.) Find out
on the honeymoon whether crying or
swearing is the more effective.
5. Once a day say to wife, Il love
you." To husband, How strong you
arep If the latter remark is ridiculous
say, How clever you are" for every
body believes that.

London Kills Charity
D0uS and Cats with Gas

Correspondence of The Associated Press.)
London, Dec. 6.-In these days
when nearly everybody is giving up
something to the cause OF the war,
pet animals have played a prominent
part as form of war charity. People
have given their dogs and cats to
charitable institutions to be auctioned
off to raise money for wounded SOL
diers. So many unsaleable pets have
been offered as to make them a bur-
den to the animal protection So
cieties.
At a recent sale many OF the cats
and dogs were sold, decrepit and dir
ty that no bids could be obtained for
them, aud they were handed over to
the societies TO be put to death by

filthy beasts fingered me all over, and I feel as if I should never be clean again. They tied us up-the fellow who handled me- could tie like bo'sun -and there we lay with our toes up beneath a tree while a great brute stood guard over us with a club in his hand. When say we I mean Sum merlee and myself. Old Challenger was up 8. tree eatin' pines and havin' the time of his life. I'm bound to say that he managed to get some fruit to us and with his own hands he loos- ened our bonds. If you'd seen him sitting up in that tree hobnobbin' with his twin brother and. singin' in that roIIin' bass of his, Ring Out, Wild Bells cause music of any kind seem ed to put lem in a good humor, you'd have smiled, but we weren't in much mood for laughin', as you can guess. They were inclined within limits to let him do what he liked, but they drew the line pretty sharply at us. It was a mighty consolation to us s.l to know that you were runnin loose and had the archives in your keepin'.
 'SWeIl, now, young fellah, I'll tell you what will surprise you. You say you saw signs of men and fires, traps and the like. Well. we have seen the naCVGS LQemSG4 VoS.s FOOT sQeVUS they were, down faced little chaps, and had enough to make them so.

That's the situation so far as could follow it. We'll, yes. terday the ape men got hold of dozen of the humans and brought them in as prisoners. You never heard such a jabbcrin' and shriekin, in your life. The men were little red fellows and had been bitten and clawed so that they could hardly walk The ape men put two of them to death then and there fairly pulled the arm off cne of them it was perfectly beastlys Plucky little chaps they are and hardly gave squeak. But it turned us absolutely sick. summerlee tainted, and even Challenger had as much as be could stand. think they have cleared, don't you? ?''

 s'I thought it was the end of us, but instead of that 1t started them on a new Nne. They all jabbered and chat tered together. Then one of them stood out beside Challenger.

This old ape man-he was their chief-was lsort of red Challenger, witl every one of our friends beauty points, only just trife more so. He had the short body, the big shoulders, the round chest, no neck, a great ruddy fri1l of beard, the tuft- ed eyebrows the What do you want, hang your look about the eyes and the whole catalogue.

 of your life, young feIlah, my

 dians that put you; clean out of their heads else they would have been back to the camp for you, as sure as fate, and gathered you in. Of courBe, as you said. they have been watchin' us from the begInnin' out of that tree. and they knew perfectly well that we were. one short. However, they. could think only of this new haul. So it was I and not a bunch of apes that drop ped in on you in the morning. Well, we had horrid business afterWard. My God what a nightmare the whole thing isi You remember the great bristle Of sharp canes down below where we found the skeleton of the American? Well, that is just under ape town, and that's the jumpin' off place of their prisoners. expect there's heaps of skeletons there, If we looked for 'em. They have a sort of clear parade ground on the top, and they make proper ceremony about it. One by one the poor devils have to jump, and the game is to see whether they are meroly dashed to pieces or whether they get skewered on the canes. They took us out to see it. and the whole tribe lined up on the edge Four of the Indians jumped. and the canes went through 'en like knittin, needles through pat of but ter No wonder we found that poor Yankees skeleton with the canes growth, between bis ribs. It was hor- ribIe-but it was doocedly intereStin' too. We were all fascinated to see them take the dive, even when we thought it would be our turn next on the springboard.
 "well. it wasn't. They kept six. of khe Indians np for today that's how understand it-but fancy we were to be the star performers in the show Challenger might get off, but Summer lee and were in the bill Their Ian guage is more than half signs, and it was not hard to fellow them. So thought 1t was time we made ai break for 1t.
 ESQ broke away early this nornin, gave my guard kick in the tumTny that laid him out and sprinted for the camp. There got you and the guns, and here we are.''

 "Weu, we must just go back and fetch 'em. I couldn't bring 'em with me. Challenger wes mp the tree, and Sunmerlee was not it for the effort The only chance was to get the guns and try rescue. Of course they may scupper them at once in revenge don't think they would touch Chal- lenger, but I wouldn't answer for Sum merlee But they would have had him in any case. Of that am certain. So sI haven't made matters any worse Dy boltin'. But we are homer bound to go l back and have them os1t or see it through with them.
