Rates for Parcel Post Shipments — RATE TABLE FOR PARCEL POST SHIPMENTS — How to Return Goods to Us by Parcel Post. — About Transportation Charges. — Parcel Post Zones, in which the various cantonments and mobilization camps are located, measuring from Chicago.

Your Postmaster will tell you the parcel post zone in which your postoffice is located, measuring from Chicago.

All merchandise shipped by mail takes parcel post rates. Packages up to 4 ounces in weight are carried at the rate of 1 cent an ounce, regardless of distance. Packages over 4 ounces are charged for by the pound. The rate per pound varies according to the distance, which is measured by the Government zone system, each zone covering a certain number of miles from point of shipment. Distances and rates are shown in the table below. Packages carried by parcel post are handled just like any other mail matter. They are delivered to your box by your rural mail carrier if you live on a rural route, or delivered to your door if you live in a city where there is carrier service, or delivered to your local postoffice if you live where there is no carrier service.

The Way to Return Goods to Us by Parcel Post.

When you return goods by parcel post, put the letter you write and the bills for the goods (if you have the bills) in an envelope and paste or tie the envelope securely to the outside of the package. In addition to the postage you put on the package, put a stamp on the envelope.

When goods are to be shipped by parcel post, it is not necessary to send stamps to pay the postage for shipping package. Simply add the amount for charges to the amount of the merchandise and include in the money order, check or currency you send us. This charge for mailing must be paid in advance, as no provision has been made for the collection of mailing charge on delivery.

When goods are to be shipped by freight or express and there is no freight or express agent at your shipping point, you must send money to prepay the transportation charges. If there is an agent you can pay the transportation charges when shipment reaches you. It is only necessary to prepay freight or express charges when there is no agent at your station.

Throughout this catalog you will find the shipping weight is given in the description of merchandise. Occasionally, according to the nature of the merchandise, we are obliged to give the actual weight. In such cases a few ounces extra in weight must be allowed for wrapping and packing, according to the nature of the goods.

Parcel post rates apply to books as follows: All books up to and including 8 ounces in weight will be carried at the rate of 1 cent for 2 ounces to any part of the United States, regardless of distance, and all books over 8 ounces in weight will take the regular parcel post rates according to weight and zone.
