We Guarantee 
Safe Delivery of All 
Our Shipments 
(E Spec. Cat.) 
Be Sure to Send Additional Money to Pay Postage 
Charges for parcel post shipments must be paid in advance. Add 
the amount for postage to the cost of the merchandise and include it 
in your remittance. We always return every penny you send 
over actual postage required. 
It Is Easy to Figure Parcel Post Charges 
The shipping weight is given in the 
description of each article. In the last 
two columns of the order blank show 
the shipping weight of each article or¬ 
dered, in pounds and ounces. Add the 
pounds and ounces, and change the 
ounces into full pounds (see table below). 
Then show the total weight of your order 
in pounds. 
In figuring postage on packages 
weighing more than one pound, the 
Postoffice figures a fraction of a 
pound as a full pound. For example: 
If the total weight of your order is 
7 pounds 2 ounces, it will take the 
8-pound rate. 
Total Ounces 
9 oz. to 16 oz. 
17 oz. to 32 oz. 
33 oz. to 48 oz. 
49 oz. to 64 oz. 
65 oz. to 80 oz. 
Takes Rate for 
1 lb. 
2 lbs. 
3 lbs. 
4 lbs. 
5 lbs. 
and so on 
In case you don’t know in which zone 
you live, refer to the map below or ask 
your carrier or postmaster. When you 
have the total weight of your order and 
you know the zone in which you live, 
refer to the chart at the left and you can 
immediately tell the amount of postage 
required to ship your order. 
Packages weighing up to 70 pounds 
can be carried by Parcel Post in All 
Zones. Explosives, Inflammable Ar¬ 
ticles and Poisons cannot be shipped by 
Parcel Post. All heavier and bulkier 
packages that cannot be shipped by par¬ 
cel post can be shipped economically by 
freight or express (see freight page). 
For special delivery or any other 
information regarding parcel post 
matters, ask your carrier or your 
postmaster. 
Larger Orders Increase Saving 
There is a decided advantage to you 
in sending larger orders, as the postage 
on several articles is often not much 
more than for one or two! For example, 
postage on a 1-pound package to the 
3rd zone is 9c; while postage on a 10- 
pound package to the 3rd zone is only 
27c, less than 3c a pound. Larger orders 
reduce your transportation cost and in¬ 
crease your saving! 
We Guarantee a saving on every purchase 
after you have paid postage or shipping charges.
