The New Postal Law.

By Editor

LET all remember that the new postal law went into effect July 1. The changes that are made by it are: First, A letter weighing an ounce, can be sent to any part of the United States or Canada, for the regular postage,—two cents. Secondly, Newspapers can be sent from the offices of publication and from agencies, at the rate of a pound for one cent. Thirdly, When you wish to send a letter, and have it delivered immediately on its arrival, ask the postmaster for a special delivery stamp (it costs ten cents), put it on your envelope, and that will insure its instant delivery from the office in any city of 4,000 inhabitants and upwards.
