The Report for 1892 announces the preparation of letter cards, which will be treated of later, and also says: "Postage stamps of the value of 20 cents and 50 cents are about to be issued. These will be useful in prepayment of parcel post." And this brings us to our next chapter. CHAPTER X THE SUPPLEMENTARY VALUES OF 1893 Before proceeding with the subject matter of this chapter in detail, it may be well to reproduce here a synopsis of the Canadian Postal Rates and Regulations as set forth in the _Dominion Philatelist_ in December, 1893, and taken from the then current _Canada Postal Guide_. This will give a comprehensive review of the results of the various Acts and Amendments and Department Orders that we have quoted--and of some of the last that we have been unable to obtain. _1st. Class Matter._--Includes Letters, Post Cards, Legal and Commercial Papers wholly or partially written, with the exception of those specially exempted, and all matter of the nature of a letter or written correspondence. The letter rate for Canada, Newfoundland and the United States is 3 cents per oz., and for all other destinations 5 cents per 1/2 oz. Insufficiently paid letters posted in and addressed to Canada are charged with double the amount of the postage due thereon. When posted wholly unpaid they will be sent to the Dead Letter Office. Insufficiently paid letters for or from the United States, are charged with the deficient postage on delivery. Letters for the United States must be prepaid at least one full rate, 3 cents. Wholly unpaid letters for and from the United Kingdom and other countries, are charged double postage on delivery, and insufficiently prepaid letters double the deficiency. Letters addressed to mere initials, or to fictitious names, will not be delivered, unless a street address, the number of a box, or some other definite direction is added. Letters bearing mutilated stamps, or stamps so soiled and defaced as to make it impossible for the sorting clerks to decide whether they have been used before or not, will be sent to the Dead Letter Office. _Post Cards._ Nothing whatever may be attached to a post card, nor may it be cut or altered in any way. A previously used post card, bearing a 1 cent stamp, will not be accepted as a post card. _2nd Class Matter.--For Canada, Newfoundland and the United States._--Newspapers and Periodicals posted from the office of publication, for regular subscribers in other places in Canada, Newfoundland and the United States, pass free of postage. Newspapers and periodicals issued less frequently than once a month, and addressed to regular subscribers or news agents, and on all specimen newspapers, one cent per pound or fraction of a pound.
