No More Receipts Will Be Issued.

Hereafter if you wish a return receipt from the receiver of any registered letter which you may send, you must endorse your letter "Receipt desired” or with words of similar import. This is in accord with a recent revision and amendment of Section 3928 of the Revised Statutes (855. P. L. & R.) and is done to lessen the work in the registry section of the Post Office. The order sent out to all postmasters says: “In accordance with the amendment, postmasters should not hereafter prepare receipt cards for leturn to senders of domestic registered letters or parcels that do not bear the endorsement receipt desired ” when an article is receiver for registration, the registration receipt issued to sender and the registration record shall be similarily indorsed.
