In
sending
postage-stamps
in
letters,
care
should
be
taken
to
use
thick
envelopes,
so
that
enclosures
of
this
kind
may
neither
be
seen
nor
felt.
It
is
easy
to
feel
a
quantity
of
postage-stamps
in
a
letter
sent
in
a
thin
and
crisp
envelope,
and
some
official
becoming
aware
of
this
may
not
be
able
to
resist
the
temptation
to
appropriate
them.
26.
No
enclosures
whatever
should
be
sent
in
newspapers
impressed
with
the
regular
newspaper-stamp.
Even
an
old
address
of
such
a
newspaper
should
be
carefully
cut
out.
It
is
not
enough
that
it
be
obliterated
with
the
pen,
as
the
rules
forbid
writing
of
any
kind
in
addition
to
the
mere
address.[194]
With
newspapers
stamped
by
the
ordinary
postage-label
the
arrangements
are
quite
different.
Any
printed
paper
or
manuscript
may
be
folded
up
with
the
newspaper
on
which
an
ordinary
penny-stamp
is
placed,
provided
the
total
amount
of
the
package
does
not
exceed
four
ounces.
The
old
address
(supposing
the
newspaper
has
circulated
through
the
post
before)
may
be
left
on
or
not
at
the
discretion
of
the
sender,
as
this
does
not
interfere
with
the
regulation
that
nothing
in
the
packet
shall
be
of
the
nature
of
a
letter.
On
the
other
hand,
any
sentence
or
message
written
in
ink
or
pencil
on
any
part
of
the
paper
makes
the
packet
liable
to
the
unpaid
letter-rate
of
postage.
27.
When
any
letter,
book-packet,
or
newspaper
is
lost,
miscarried,
or
delayed,
inquiry
should
be
made
as
soon
as
evidence
has
been
obtained
that
the
article
in
question
was
really
posted.
The
postmaster
of
the
town
should
be
informed
by
the
complainant
of
every
particular
relating
to
the
missing
letter,
&c.
the
day
and
hour
of
its
posting,
the
office
at
which
and
the
person
by
whom
this
was
done.
In
cases
of
delay
or
mis-sending,
the
covers
ought
to
be
produced
in
order
that
the
office
stamps
on
them
may
indicate
the
exact
place
where
the
delay
has
been
occasioned.
Correspondence
on
the
subject
of
the
complaints
will
subsequently
be
carried
on
between
the
applicant
and
the
Secretary's
department
in
England,
Scotland,
or
Ireland,
as
the
case
may
be.
