Special delivery messages are delivered, not by ordinary carriers, but by special delivery messengers.
The special delivery letter is used when immediate knowledge is necessary. It saves a long telegram.
MONEY ORDERS
Money, in limited sums, may be sent through the post office. One advantage of sending money in this way is that it practically insures the sender against loss.
All post offices are not money order offices.
A post office money order may only be sent to those places where there are such offices.
At all post offices, authorized to send money orders, proper blanks can be had on which the sender can write his order.
Any sum may be sent by postal order, from one cent to one hundred dollars.
The fee is from three to thirty cents.
Read the blank carefully; it is simple, but be sure you understand it before filling out the order.
