ABNER COSENS POST OfFICO NOUS,. and passed. The Treasurer reported cash on hand Postofiieo officials are not perfect and mistakes will occur even in the best regulated pmstofliees, yet, p er- hal s the number is no 1 i(1 than might be expected in view of the great number of things to be remembered so quickly, and the c.rornrous increase in the quantity of mail matter especially news papers, transent papers, cata- logues Sze, On the other hand a large percentage of the work in a postofflce is due to the want of thought, or lack of knowledge, on the part of patrons, To help each and all, but especially the kindly disposed, the following hints and, suggestions, partly in words of the department regulations, and partly inferred from them, and others foundedyon simple common sense and experience, are submitted for careful reading and practical application ;- Always do your own licking (of Stamps.) Mail all matters in good time, more especially when sending in large quantities. Address all mail matter in a legible and complete manner in ink. Don't use a pencil in addressing newaipapers. Waren writing postcards write the address first. Register all valuable letters or par- cels. Always hand in registered letters at money order wicket, and get receipt. Do not drop them in the letter box. The regulations require that register- ed letters and parcels be handed in at least half an hour before the despatch of the mail by which it is desired that they shall be sent. As far as possible avoid using the outside letter boxes for papers and parcels. The boxes become full and letters are crowded out. Fasten the covers of newspapers firmly so as to prevent their slipping out. . In remitting money by mail the postal note or money order is the best medium. Patronize the postoiilce for you are one of the shareholders. Every letter should bear on the envelope the full name and address of the sender (or his Sox number) in order to insure its return, if the per- aeil to whom it is directed cannot be found. See that every letter, newspaper or other packet sent by post, is securely folded and sealed. Every such packet has to be several times handled, and even when in the mail bag is exposed to pressure and friction. In addressing a letter always leave room to affix the stamp in the proper place -the upper right hand corner. Some letters are so covered with the address that it is impossible to put on the stamp without covering a part of the address. A letter once posted becomes the property of the person to whom it is addressed, and must be forwarded ac- cording to directions. On no applica- tion, however urgent, can it be lawful- ly handed back to.the writer or to any person. Don't try to make the post- master commit n crime. A postmaster cannot be required to deliver a letter or parcel until all post- age clue thereon has been paid by the party to whom it is addressed. A registered letter inay not be de- livered to the address until it has been duly signed for in the book of record. A Postmaster is not required to re- deem or to exchange postage stamps. Parents should remember that it is bad policy to send small children to the office for mail. They often cannot tell what they want, blockade the wicket, acid are in danger of losing mail if given to them. In winter time do not keep the door open longer than is necessary. Don't try to crowd another patron out of his turn at the wicket. If yon want stamps have your change ready, and don't keep the clerk waiting a minute or two while you are searching in your pocket or your purse. Don't stand at the wicket licking stamps or chatting while you are in the way of others waiting to be serv- ed. • For An impaired Appetite. Loss of appetite always results from faulty digestion. All that is needed is a few doses of Chamberlain's Stom- ach and Liver Tablets. They will in- vigorate the stomach, strengthen the digestion and give you an appetite like a wolf. These Tablets also act as 0 gentle laxative. For sale by all Druggists. East Wawanosh. The Council met on March 23rd, pursuant to adjournment ; members all present except Mr. Wilson.
