Mail Your Packages Early Says Postmaster Smead It is the request of Postmaster Smead that the patrons of the Hepp ner office get their Christmas pack ages in early, and he asks that this be done so that the work of the office may be expedited and all mail sent out promptly. Having this end in view, Mr. Smead asks that packages be mailed as early in the day as pos sible, especially those to be insured. The outgoing mail close sat 5:30 p. ni., and packages to be insured should be in the office not later than 4:30 p. m. that they may go out on the day mailed. This applies only during the Christmas rush. About 40 packages per hour is the best time that can be made on insured packages, hence the necessity of complying with this re quest is made apparent. There is no appropriation for extra help for third class postoffices for the holidays, and our local office will greatly appreciate the cooperation of the public in this matter. Some general rules, sent out from the postoffice department at Washing' ton, should be observed in this con nection : No deliveries Christmas day after 12, noon; mail early for delivery be fore Christmas. All parcels must be securely wrap ped or packed. Use strong paper and heavy twine. Many articles will require special packing. For instance, hats: Pack in strong corrugated or fiber boxes; or dinary pasteboard hat boxes must be crated. Ladies' hats and stiff hats easily damaged should be marked "fragile." Articles easily broken or crushed must be crated or securely .wrapped. Use liberal quantities of excelsior, or like material, in, around and be tween the articles and the outside container. All articles easily broken or damaged must be plainly marked fragile." Articles likely to spoil within the time reasonably required for trans portation and delivery will not be ac cepted for mailing. Wrap or pack carefully, according to contents, and plainly mark all Buch parcels "per ishable." Use special delivery stamps to expedite delivery. Adresses should be complete, with house number and name of street, postoffice box or rural-route number, and typed or plainly written in ink. A return card should be placed in the upper left hand corner of every piece of mall. If a tag is used, the address and return card should be written on the wrapper for use if tag is lost and a copy of the address should be inclosed in the parcel. NOTICE Or FINAL ACCOUNT.

"Hm m. I might give old Bobby Green something for his car. He's saved me a lot of dull hours on the train. I never could think of a way to do him a favor."

The Mistletoe Bough; Seventy-Six Specie OUR grandmother used to sing the old English ballad about the mistletoe that hung on the cas tle wall and the "baron's retain ers" who so blithely kept the Christmas holiday and the young bride who, weary of dancing, cried : "Tarry a moment, I'll hide, 1 II hide 1" We youngsters listened breathlessly and saucer-eyed as the story progressed and tl lovely lady crept Into the chest with the secret lock that went "snap" after she was Inside the joyful company seeing her never again. We were thrilled to our very souls I And then the tragic ending when her skeleton was found fifty years aft erward, was almost more than our young, tender hearts could bear and, after each singing, we wept copiously. It is said that this quaint ballad was based upon a true story. , , . The mistletoe, lovely emblem of Yule, figured In song and Btory long before Christianity existed.
