According to the recently published regula tions governing this law, any inhabi tant of the United States may then send through the mail merchandise of certain descriptions, providing it does not weigh more than eleven pounds and is not more titan three feet wide nor more than six feet in length. These regulations, however, prohibit the mailing of live snakes and birds, intoxicants, pistols and inflammable material. On the other hand, the ship per is allowed to mall butter, lard. fish, tiesii meat, dressed fowls, vegetables, fruits, berries a.nd similar articles. Fresh meats, however, may be trans ported only stt-miles, and if for any reason the paicels post is unable to de liver this or other perishable matter they can be turned over to charity organizations. Provision Is made for insuring parcels and they can also be registered. One point has been particularly em phasized and that is that all packages will have to be taken to the postoffice by the sender. This means that none of the numbered drug stores sub-sta tions will be allowed to accept this class of matter, though it may be de posited at any’ of the larger postoffice stations. Delivery By Wagons. The delivery of the packages will be made with the same regularity that now prevails in distributing the mail. I hese deliveries will be made by wagon under a ftfteen-day contract with those who are now carrying the local mails in each city. At the end of the flfteen day probation the government will make the contracts permanent. Another interesting feature of the new departure in mall delivery’ is the institution of the zone system through which the government will fix the charges to be made on packages. In formulating this system the govern ment has used the circle w’ithln circle plan adopted by European countries. In all there are eight of these zones, each defining a territory and fixing charges to be made upon parcels. The center of these zone circles to all in tents and purposes is any postoffice in any’ town of the Ignited States where the shipper may happen to reside. The zones have been also divided into units or sections, in which towns and cities are situated. For instance, the parcels post map, with its numbered units printed on it, DIES NINE DAYS AFTER HER FATHER IS KILLED IN RAILWAY ACCIDENT Katie May Manning, the fourteen year-old daughter of Mrs; Mattie Man ning. 190'Greenwich avenue, died at the family residence today of pneumonia.

The second zone will be still greater and the eighth zone will take in Alaska and the Ha waian islands. Each Locality Zone Center. As each locality makes its own first zone it lias been necessary for the post office department to print separate maps for all sections of the United States. The first zone of 50 miles includes what is called a local zone. The maxi mum charge for the local zone is five cents for the first pound and one cent for each additional pound. After that there is a graduated Increase, the sec ond zone having a radius of 150 miles, the third 300 miles and so forth until the eighth zone, which includes every town over 1,800 miles away. Separate provision has been made for all packages that weigh four ounces or less. Like the present system of fourth-class matter, there wiM be a flat rate of a cent an ounce. If a pack age weighs over four ounces it will be charged the pound rate. Every clerk and every postmaster handling the parcels post will have a map and a guide book holding the key to the numbered units in the map. The postoffice department has also issued a guide book and map that can be pur chased for 75 cents. Special Stamps Used. A special series of stamps has been engraved and will be used exclusively on this class of mail matter. These stamps will be obtainable on January 1 at any postoffice station. Perhaps the greatest benefit of the parcels post will be to the farmer who desires to sell his goods direct to the consumer. A postal card ordering a dozen eggs mailed one day will bring the eggs to hand on the following aft ernoon.
