THE POSTAL SERVICE.

While the postal service isn't all that
Il can or should be, and while efforts
are being made in number of directions
to bring about an improvement it can
not be overlooked mat there is a chance
for those who are seeking better service
TO Contribute their bit to the general re-
suit. The part that can be played by the
individual may be small but IN the ag-
grsgate such assistance is bound to have
its tahing effect Only a few months
ago It was found that government Offices
could expedite the delivery Of mail by
many hours by depossting it earlier in
the day instead of waiting until five or
six o'clock in the afternoon at which
time the bulk of the days mar would be
dumped upon the postoffice force All
that was needed was to getting this TO
the attention Of those who were respon-
sfbIe for such late denositing, when 1t

The episode of Beaumarchais was a
survival of the secret diplomacy of Louis

The vehicles OF ruucnai. capital OF

wheels, because of its steep and pre-

ted out as luxuriously as troika OF
| Moscow or Petrograd, but they are
drawn by oxen instead Of horses. The
characteristic carrier of Funchal, how
ever, is a low, cushion seated sled, in
which a passenger sits and slides to
the bottom OF the steep streets The
runners are hauled across a grease bag
by two attendants before the passen-
ger is started on a bumpy ride over
cobbled Davements.

LEMON IN YOUR TEA?

A great many people prefer to drink
tea with slice of lemon in place OF
cream. Probably very few are aware
of the origin Of the custom.
In the fourth or fifth centuries, tea
was a favorite beverage in China.
The leaves were steamed, crushed
in a mortar, made into cake, aud
boiled together with rice, ginger,
salt, orange peel, spices, milk and
sometimes with lemon!
Whether you prefer your tea with
or without either lemon or cream,
YOU want the best tea obtainable.
Say "LIPTON'S Yellow Label"
to your grocer and you'll get it.
LIPToN'S Yellow Label is not
alone Lipton's Best, it is the finest
tea the world produces and costs
no more than ordinary grades.
Ask your grocer for Lipton's
Yellow Label Tea. If he
does not sell it, send US his
name and address and we will
mail you a FREE sample
and give you the name of
grocer who can supply you.
