THE BRITISH PARCELS POST.

In Great Britain the parcels post

was established in August, 1883*. In the_ first year 22,004,000 parcels were handled, the postage amounting to $2,500,000, 'oi which sum 55 percent. was paid to the railways for trans- portation. Now note the gr0WlSl1 Of tho system. The number of pl1r<r€1S handied in 1911 was 121,802,000. the gross receipts being 5123001000. Of

and delivered 1,044,100,000 one-cent Packages and 196,300,000 newspapers, also charged one cent each. And th profit from the mail service, apart

ice, was $27,000,000.

All of which goes to show that we

,should have a great extension of the parcels post system in this country and that besides being a most valu- `able convenience and saving to the people, it would prove a good source of revenue to the country.
