NEW CLEARING RULES
AND REGULATIONS
OF INTEREST TO .SHIPPERS
AND MERCHANTS OF
ALL CLASSESS
A- circular lias been received ex
plaining the new rules and regula
tions issued by the department of
cemmerce effective February first,
in rference to shipments of goods
intended for foreign ports.
These regulations provide a new
form known as shipper’s export de
claration, which takes place of the
present shipper’s manifest. The
new form is in duplicate; the ori
ginal to be retained by the customs
officials and the duplicate or extract
certified by the collector, to be
! handed to the carrier as proof of
compliance with customs require
ments. The regulations also pro
vide that carriers should not ac
cept shipments to above described
territory unless accompanied by
shippers’ declaration or extracts
thereof, certified by the collector
of customs.
Shipments laden on vessels for
direct delivery at Canadian and Al
askan ports must not be accepted
unless accompanied by an extract
of shippers’ export declaration, cer
tified by a collector of customs.
Shipments originating at other
points other than the point of lading
on the exporting vessel must not be
accepted unless accompanied by an
export declaration signed by the
shipper and either executed before
a notary or collector of customs, or
containing authority on the back of
the blank for someone else to act
as agent at the port of lading.
The export declaration and ex
tract must both be delivered to the
carrier to accompany the shipment
to the port of exportation when on
through bill of lading.
If the shipper prefers, he may
place the original declaration, but
not the extract, in a sealed envel
ope addressed to the collector of
customs, with his name endorsed
thereon, and the fact of sealing not
ed on the declaration, and deliver
it, with the extract, to the carrier;
or if consigned to an agent at the
port of export, the shipper may
mail the declaration and extract,
properly prepared, direct to such
agent.
Export declarations and extracts
will not be required for merchan
dise withdrawn from bonded ware
houses, or for merchandise shipped
under any form of customs bond
for exportation or for transit
through the United States. For
such shipments the Inspector of
! customs will issue the exporting
j vessel a permit to lade on customs
; form No. 7,305.
When shipments are loaded at a
| port or place where there is no cus
I toms officer stationed, shippers will
be required to fill out shippers’ ex
port declaration and extract, and
should authorize the purser of the
vessel to act as agent to clear the
shipment at the first customs house.
This authority must be in writing
in the space provided on the back
of the form.

RUSSIA STARES ALL
' ON NEW LEADER
GENERAL KHOLOD HAS THE
ENTIRE CONFIDENCE OF
THE PEOPLE
LONDON, Feb. 8.—Authoritative
I reports received here from Russia
, show that General Kholod, Uc
! Czar’s latest addition to his general
staff, is already producing some re
! suits against the Austro-Germans
on tho entire front lines, from the
! vicinity of Riga to east Galicia.
In. certain sections, notably where
Austrians face the, Russians, the
j “Uberlaufer” ( trench deserters )
have doubled in number, most of the
: suffering from cold, exposure and
| frostbite, the reports say. Wretch
| edly clothed, they are entirely -un
equipped to stand the rigors of a
Russian winter, according to the
Russians.
German prisoners, thousands of
whom have fallen into Russian hands
during the last few weeks, admit,
that Germany is suffering a wool
famine. Many wear overcoats of
a. cotton mixture lined with felt.
These garments, too stiff and cum
bersome to give warmth, are in
marked contrast to the woolen gar
ments worn by soldiery captured
before Warsaw a year ago.
Cotton socks, which many times
mean death in a Russian winter,
also arc worn by many of the Ger
man soldiers. Hardly any are
equipped with hoods, which are al
most absolutely essential in Russia.
German and Austrian officers are
reported comfortably and warmly
-arbed, but not so the rank and
file.
On the other hand, in addition to
their natural hardiness, the Rus
sians are provided with complete
equipment against the cold. Rus
sia has abundant stocks of wool,
camel hair and leather. Experts
have providid garments from these
stocks to the lowliest private and
the highest officer. Every Rus
sian is equipped with a woolen and
khaki hod. Ho wears no socks,
but binds his feet with oblong strips
of wool (“paztianki”), worn under
loose heavy leather boots.
Equipment experts say that there
will be no frozen Russian feet this
winter. The Russian uniform great
coat and all, is pure wool. Aa
u Derated wool in Russia is now
worn in civilian ranks, but not in
the military. Woolen finger out is
also have been provided.
The elaborate equipment not only
is given the fighters now actually
on the battle front, but to Russia’s
new 3,000,000 reserves, who are
| trained, and ready. British mili
I trry leaders believe that Inis con
cretely indicates that Russia, under
i General Kholod, means to attempt
t - bring her part of the war to a
i deinite conclusion before the spring
| thaws.
Another and clearer indication
j now that winter, ample munitions
and equipment have joined forces, is
! the Russians’ new mode of offensive
; constant artillery and infantry drum
ming, whereby the enemy is kept
from preparing permanent shelters.
’ ? Russian military authorities
are said to be staking a lot on Gen
eral Kholod.

| DOES YOUR HAIR LEAK
ELECTRICITY
While electricity is not exactly
| life, there are many points of si
j miliraty between the two. When
l the body is highly electrified,
J there is no doubt that it is at the
i flood tide of vitality.
The hair, partly following
the law of points, partly because of
ismolecular composition, is the
:H r: ion of the body where electricity
is most readily seen. Many peo
ple can draw sparks from their hair
making visible flashes in the dark,
: and most people with plenty of hair
in a good condition of health, will
nr their hair crackle if brushed
or combed vigorously.
Certain substances arc highly con
ducive to exciting this electricity.
A silk bandeau around the head is
excessively tiring. It takes the
electricity by the slight friction
caused by every movement of the
head, forms a natural circuit and
since silk is only a partial insula
tor, it leaks the electricity into the
air.
The old-fashioned wire brush is
unwise, for the same reason, or
hose people whose electricity is ea
sily taken from them. Rubber and
celluloid combs, since they are non
conductor.
The same principle holds true
when the bead is washed. Some
shampoos possess the power of ma
king the hair highly electric while
others leave it passive. It is a
good rule not to use a shampoo that

; electrifies the hair too much, for it
: means that a strain has been put on
the roots of the hair, and this is
weakening. For the same reason a
womna’s long hair, when being
washed and when still wet, should
never be allowed to touch the sides
of a metal basin or a matel bath
tub, even when enameled. A por
celain basin is less harmful, for por
celain is one of the best non-con

INDESTRUCTO trunks are not by any means £;
for rich people alone. Don’t think that because £,
people of means so generally use them that they £,
are not well within the resources of the average family. £;
Why, we believe that if the people of this city really knew how ft <
much comfort and satisfaction there is in an Indestructo trunk, g
and at what really moderate prices, hardly anybody would be 22
willing to go even through this summer without an Indestructo ft
Indestructo trunks have been around the world thousands of times, ft
They have been on the most strenuous exploring expeditions, and g
have come out unscathed. Every trunk is guaranteed for at least 22
five years’ perfect service. ft
Of course they are smart appearing trunks, too. Not only are ft
good, but look good. There’s some satisfaction in that. g
If you take our advice you will not postpone one day longer g
