THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
through an office which stamps with red 
or any other bright colour, the clerks will 
not fail to take advantage of the oppor- 
tunity. 
The Post-Office authorities seldom take 
any pains to avoid harming the boxes, as 
from the office here I always get boxes 
wrapped in white ruthlessly stamped on, 
although I have twice asked them to be 
careful to stamp on the labels only. 
Official promises, however, seem very like 
pie-crusts ( i . e. made to be broken). 
The calico as a wrapper has the ad- 
vantage of serving for several journeys. 
If any one would have some slips printed 
as I have suggested, I think they would 
be useful ; I for one should be glad to 
have some, and I think our insects 
would oftener reach their destination in 
safety if such were used. — A. F. Sealy,
