Miscellaneous Information Con- cerning Postage Stamps, Pos- tal Cards and Stamped Envelopes
All postage stamps issued by the United States since 1860 are good for postage.
Postage-due stamps are used by post- masters to witness the collection of postage on short-paid matter. These stamps are not good for prepayment of postage and are not sold to the public.
Internal-revenue stamps are neither good for postage nor redeemable by the Post-Office Department.
United States postage stamps are good for postage in Guam, Hawaii, Porto Rico, and Tutuila, but not in the Philip- pine Islands or in the Panama "Canal Zone." Postage stamps overprinted "Philippines" or "Canal Zone, Panama," are not good for postage or redeemable in the United States.
Postage Stamps .- The Department is- sues postage stamps of the following de- nominations: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 13, 15, and 50 cent, 1, 2, and 5 dollar, and 10-cent special delivery.
Postage stamps that are mutilated, or defaced in any way, can not be accepted for postage.
Stamps cut or otherwise severed from postal cards, embossed United States stamped envelopes, or newspaper wrap- pers are not redeemable or good for postage.
Postage stamps are neither redeemable from purchasers nor exchangeable for those of other denominations or any other stamped paper.
Postage stamps should not be used for making remittances. They may be lost or may adhere in transit, and such use tends to disorganize the proper equaliza- tion of postmasters' compensation under the law. Ample registry and money-or- der facilities are provided for the safe transmission of funds by mail.
No postage-stamped paper is sold by the Department direct; it must be bought of postmasters.
Postal cards are furnished at the post- age value represented by the stamp im- pressed thereon.
Single postal cards for domestic and foreign correspondence are furnished at 1 cent and 2 cents each, and double (re- ply) postal cards at 2 and 4 cents each, respectively.
Domestic single cards are furnished in sheets of 40 each, when so desired, for printing purposes.
United States stamped envelopes .- The Department issues thirteen different sizes of stamped envelopes, the smallest 2 7-8 by 5 1-4, the largest 4 3-8 by 10 1-8 inches, in three qualities and five colors of paper, as follows: First quality, white and amber; second quality, buff and blue; third quality, manila. The denomina- tions are 1, 2. 4, and 5 cent. A diagram of sizes and schedule of prices may be consulted at any post-office.
Stamped newspaper wrappers are is- sued in 1-cent, 2-cent, and 4-cent denom- inations, and in three sizes.
Unused stamped envelopes and news- paper wrappers, when presented in a substantially whole condition, will be re- deemed by postmasters at their face value either in postage stamps, stamped envelopes, or postal cards, but stamped envelopes bearing a printed return card will be redeemed only from original purchasers.
SPECIAL DELIVERY
A special-delivery stamp, in addition to the lawful postage, secures the im- mediate delivery of any piece of mail matter at any United States post-office within the letter-carrier limits of free- delivery offices and within a 1-mile limit of any other post-office.
Special delivery can be effected only by the use of the special delivery stamp.
Hours of delivery: From 7 a. m. to 11 p. m. at all free-delivery offices, and from 7 a. m. to 7 p. m. at all other offices, or until after the arrival of the last mail at night, provided that be not later than 9 p. m. Special-delivery mail must be de- livered on Sundays as well as on other days, if post-office is open on Sundays.
If special-delivery matter fails of deliv-
DIRECTORY ADVERTISING ALWAYS PAYS
UNITED STATES POSTAL INFORMATION, ETC.
ery because there is no person at the place of address to receive it, the matter is returned to the post-office and deliv- cred in the ordinary mail.
Special-delivery matter may be for- warded, but is not entitled to special de- livery at the second office of address un- less forwarded on a general forwarding request before attempt at delivery has been made at the post-office of original address.
A special-delivery stamp does not give a piece of mail matter any other security than that given to ordinary mail matter.
Rural letter carriers are required to de- liver special-delivery mail to the resi- dences of patrons of their routes if they live within 1 mile of the routes. Special- delivery matter addressed to patrons of rural free delivery who reside more than 1 mile from the routes will be placed in the box of the addressee in the same manner as ordinary mail.
REGISTRY SYSTEM.
Valuable Matter Should Be Registered. REGISTRY FEE, 10 CENTS.
Registered mails reach every post-of- fice in the world. The system insures safe transit and correct delivery.
In case of loss, the sender or owner of a registered article prepaid at the let- ter rate of postage, mailed at, and ad- dressed to, a United States post-office, is indemnified for its value up to $50.00.
Valuable letters and parcels, and those which the sender wishes positively to know have been correctly delivered, should be registered.
The registry fee is 10 cents for each separate letter or parcel, in addition to the postage, both to be fully prepaid with postage stamps attached to the letter or parcel.
Any piece of mail matter ma" be reg- istered at any post-office or station thereof, and by any rural free-delivery carriers. In residential districts of cities, letters and packages of first-class matter that are not cumbersome on account of size, shape, or weight can be registered by letter carriers at the house door as safely as if brought to the post-office.
In order to have a letter or parcel reg- istered it is necessary merely to have it properly prepared, addressed, and stamp- ed, and the name and address of the sender written or printed on it It should be handed to the postmaster, clerk, or carrier, who will write out a registration receipt for the sender.
