PARCEL POST AND EXPRESS 
WE GUARANTEE THE SAFE ARRIVAL in the United 
States of all goods shipped by express or parcel post. 
On shipments weighing 20 pounds or more it is cheaper to 
ship by express. As the express companies give a receipt for 
each package, and are responsible, it amounts practically to 
insurance without cost, whereas it costs extra, according to 
value, to insure a parcel post package. 
If goods that we do not prepay are wanted by Parcel Post, 
postage must be added.
