The Canadian Paatoffice Department has leaned an entirely new schedule of parcel routes, to come into operation on Oet. 1. It shows that a tariff has been arranged for the carrying of parcels to al- most every part of the world open to for- eign commerce. An examination of the table shows that distant* dues not always dominate the charges. For instance, it costa to send a postal of one pound weight to the Congo Free States 72 cents and to Chili $1.02, which latter is the same rate charged per pound to Cochin China. Again, while it costs $1.48 to forward a five -pound parcel to Panama, a Package of similar weight may be sent to Constan- tinople for 90 cents. The most eipensive rates are those to the Dutch, East Indies, Persia, and the German coloniee, Eaat Aferica, the ratesbeing from $1.10 to $1.18 per one -pound paolage. For same rate one may send. a Six -pound parcel to Jerusalem. • Death 01 8, McTaggart. Mr. S. J.
