Did you know that the color of your interview outfit can influence the job interview? There is no one-size-fits-all advice, as the ideal color choice may vary depending on the field you are seeking a job in. We have selected the main colors that are coded for success.&nbsp;1. Pink – ComfortLight and soft shades of pink create an atmosphere of ease and comfort, helping both you and the recruiter feel relaxed. This can indicate that you are easy to get along with.2. Blue – TrustShades of blue, such as light blue or classic navy, are calming and inspire trust in you as a candidate. This is an excellent choice when you are applying for a highly responsible job, particularly if your goal is a position as an accountant.3. Purple – SpiritualityThis color can highlight your openness to spirituality and deep relationships. It can be a good choice for an interview for a position in a therapy practice or yoga studio.&nbsp;4. Dark Green – ConfidenceShades of forest or olive green symbolize stability and friendliness. This can help you demonstrate your confidence and reliability as a potential asset to the company.5. Dark Gray or Taupe – StabilityThese colors may seem neutral, but they are excellent for an interview. The restraint of these colors expresses warmth and stability without being overpowering. This can create the image of a "steady" and "solid" candidate who can be relied upon.6. Red – AmbitionBright colors like red can help you feel bolder and make the employer perceive you as someone who is ambitious and aims for career growth. However, it’s important to use red in combination with neutral colors to avoid coming off as too "aggressive."7.

Yellow clothing can help you make a good impression if you are looking for a job, such as an office manager or a creative thinker.Remember: While a good choice of clothing can give you an edge during an interview, the most important thing is what you say. Make sure you can clearly and confidently convey your experience, skills, and aspirations to the recruiter. Ultimately, the outcome of the interview will depend on your knowledge, abilities, and sincerity.

We all know that sticking to a diet filled with fat-burning foods is key to shedding those extra pounds. But did you know that when you eat could impact your hunger levels throughout the day? Personal trainer Maddie Biddulph suggests that timing your meals correctly can significantly affect your appetite and overall weight loss success.<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_28421627_S_6f39efb889.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_28421627_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_28421627_S_6f39efb889.jpg 234w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_28421627_S_6f39efb889.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_28421627_S_6f39efb889.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">Secrets of Being SlimSo, what's the secret? According to Maddie, there isn't one. The fundamental principle remains: to lose weight, you need to maintain a calorie deficit. However, there are specific times when our bodies naturally burn more calories with less effort. Research from the University of Murcia in Spain has pinpointed the ideal breakfast time to be between 7:00 and 7:11 AM.<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_451565536_S_e75c20fcd0.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_451565536_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_451565536_S_e75c20fcd0.jpg 234w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_451565536_S_e75c20fcd0.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_451565536_S_e75c20fcd0.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">But what if you're not a morning person and can't physically wake up at 7 AM to have breakfast? No worries! Nutrition expert Claire advises that you should aim to eat within an hour of waking up. Doing so helps keep your hunger hormones in check, making you feel fuller for longer.Skipping Main Meals is Not an Option!Dr. Short emphasizes the importance of balancing meal times. She explains that distributing your meals throughout the day is crucial for maintaining energy levels. Skipping meals, especially breakfast, is a big no-no. Contrary to popular belief, skipping breakfast can lead to weight gain and disrupt your metabolism. Having a well-timed breakfast can curb hunger until lunch, helping you avoid impulsive snacking.<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_77042257_S_1d925f7d6c.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_77042257_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_77042257_S_1d925f7d6c.jpg 234w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_77042257_S_1d925f7d6c.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_77042257_S_1d925f7d6c.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">So, if you're aiming to see those numbers drop on the scale, consider setting your alarm a little earlier and making time for breakfast. Eating at the right time could be the simple yet effective strategy you've been missing in your weight loss journey!

Dietitians Reveal the Best Time to Eat Breakfast for Weight Loss!

Collagen is a complex protein made up of 19 different amino acids, crucial for maintaining the structure of our skin, joints, and other tissues. However, whether taking collagen supplements is beneficial remains a hot topic of debate.<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_632791618_S_1b4c63052d.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_632791618_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_632791618_S_1b4c63052d.jpg 234w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_632791618_S_1b4c63052d.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_632791618_S_1b4c63052d.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">When you consume collagen through food or supplements, your digestive system breaks it down into individual amino acids. The bloodstream then absorbs these amino acids. The catch? There’s no guarantee your body will reassemble them back into collagen. This raises questions about the effectiveness of collagen supplements in their original form.The Power of a Balanced Diet<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_203626712_S_6a81861589.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_203626712_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_203626712_S_6a81861589.jpg 234w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_203626712_S_6a81861589.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_203626712_S_6a81861589.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">Dermatologist Stephen Shumack argues that you can get the necessary "building blocks" for protein synthesis through a balanced diet, making it a more rational and cost-effective approach. A lot of collagen is found in seafood, meat, eggs, oranges, kiwi, and so on. “Collagen supplements are just a trend based on limited scientific data. Fortunately, they have no side effects,” Shumack adds.Research and Positive EffectsDespite the skepticism, some studies highlight the benefits of collagen supplements. For instance, a 12-week placebo-controlled study found that women over 35 who took collagen along with vitamins C, E, and zinc saw improved skin condition. Eleven other studies also support that collagen intake can enhance skin elasticity, moisture levels, and wound healing.<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_583565194_S_ea0d65c386.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_583565194_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_583565194_S_ea0d65c386.jpg 234w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_583565194_S_ea0d65c386.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_583565194_S_ea0d65c386.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">Collagen supplements can be helpful in certain scenarios, especially if you have a deficiency in specific amino acids or need extra support for your joints and skin. However, for most people, a balanced diet remains the key to getting all the necessary amino acids and maintaining healthy skin and joints.

Cat's Extreme 40-Mile Adventure Leads Him Back to Original Owners' Doorstep

In ancient Greece, a unique and symbolic custom was used by men to declare their love and propose to women. This practice involved throwing an apple at the object of their affection. The act of tossing an apple was not merely a playful gesture but a profound declaration of love and intention to marry.<img src="/uploads/apple_of_discord_3e4d444ec1.jpg" alt="apple of discord.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_apple_of_discord_3e4d444ec1.jpg 226w,/uploads/small_apple_of_discord_3e4d444ec1.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_apple_of_discord_3e4d444ec1.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">@Brad Smithfield/thevintagenews.comIf the woman caught the apple or threw it back, it signified that she reciprocated the man's feelings and was prepared to marry him. This mutual exchange indicated her acceptance of the proposal and willingness to enter into a marital relationship with the potential groom. The origin of this custom is explained by two legends.The first legend concerns the "apple of discord," which sparked the Trojan War. This apple was to be given to the most beautiful woman, but the goddesses Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite quarreled over it, leading to the war.The second legend tells of the warlike maiden Atalanta. She forced her potential suitors to compete with her in a foot race, and those who lost were executed. However, Hippomenes scattered golden apples along the course, and when Atalanta stopped to pick them up, she fell behind and lost the race, thus having to marry him.

Funny Traditions that Made Apples a Symbol of Love in Ancient Greece

The Leaning Tower of Pisa, known for its tilt, is not going to fall anytime soon. Experts predict that thanks to a successful restoration project, it will stand for at least another 200 years, and possibly forever.<img src="/uploads/Tower_of_Pisa_648acdf71b.jpg" alt="Tower of Pisa .jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Tower_of_Pisa_648acdf71b.jpg 238w,/uploads/small_Tower_of_Pisa_648acdf71b.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Tower_of_Pisa_648acdf71b.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">From the very beginning of its construction in 1174 on unstable ground, the tower began to lean southward. This tilt affected its structure: the architects, attempting to "compensate" for the lean, built the upper floors with a tilt in the opposite direction, giving the tower its characteristic banana-like shape.Over the centuries, careless construction projects only worsened the situation, and by 1990, the tower's tilt had reached a critical angle of 5.5 degrees. According to calculations, it was supposed to collapse at 5.44 degrees. However, fortunately, the predictions of the computer model did not come true, and engineers developed a reconstruction plan.Restoration work carried out from 1999 to 2001 stabilized the tower. Engineers placed counterweights on the north side and partially removed the soil underneath, causing the tower to return to a more vertical position slowly. Now, the tilt of the Leaning Tower of Pisa is only 3.99 degrees. Even in the event of strong earthquakes or other unforeseen catastrophes, engineers are confident that it will withstand and remain standing for at least several centuries.

Madame Marie Tussaud, the founder of the famous wax museum, became renowned for her skill in creating realistic wax figures. However, few people know that the beginning of her career was linked to executions during the French Revolution.<img src="/uploads/Madame_Tussaud_7ed2d060ab.jpg" alt="Madame Tussaud.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Madame_Tussaud_7ed2d060ab.jpg 117w,/uploads/small_Madame_Tussaud_7ed2d060ab.jpg 374w,/uploads/medium_Madame_Tussaud_7ed2d060ab.jpg 561w," sizes="100vw">Marie Grosholtz, who later became Madame Tussaud, was born in 1761 in France. She studied the art of wax sculpture under Dr. Philippe Curtius, a talented wax modeler. Thanks to her talent, Marie quickly mastered the art of creating realistic figures. During the French Revolution, which began in 1789, Marie found herself in political turmoil. The revolution brought chaos and violence, and the guillotine became a symbol of this period. Thousands of people, including members of the royal family and prominent political figures, were executed in the squares of Paris.Madame Tussaud was assigned by the leaders of the revolution to create death masks in wax from the heads of the executed. These were extremely dangerous and gruesome tasks, as she had to work directly at the execution sites. The masks she collected were used to create wax figures, which were then displayed in public museums. In this way, Madame Tussaud preserved the history of the revolution through her works.In 1802, Madame Tussaud moved to Great Britain, where she continued her work on wax figures. She traveled around the country, showcasing her creations at exhibitions. In 1835, she opened her first permanent museum on Baker Street in London, which quickly became popular. Over time, Madame Tussaud's museum evolved into one of the most famous in the world, with branches in many countries. Marie Tussaud's works remain a testament to her skill and the extraordinary history of her career, which began on the bloody streets of revolutionary Paris.

This phenomenon, known as caloric compensation, can make it difficult to achieve a calorie deficit, which is essential for weight loss.2. Muscle LossWhile running can help you burn fat, it can also lead to muscle loss, especially if it is your primary form of exercise. Building muscle can boost your metabolism, meaning you burn more calories throughout the day, even while relaxing. Losing muscle mass can slow your metabolism, making long-term weight loss more difficult.3. Injury RiskRunning, particularly long distances or high-intensity running, can increase the risk of injury. Typical running injuries include shin splints, knee pain, and stress fractures. An injury can sideline your exercise routine, making it harder to maintain consistent physical activity, which is crucial for weight loss.4. PlateausYour body adapts to repetitive exercise routines, leading to plateaus where weight loss slows down or stops. Running the same distance at the same pace can lead to diminishing returns as your body becomes more efficient at that specific activity, burning fewer calories over time.While running has its benefits, it may not be the most effective or sustainable way to lose weight for everyone. By incorporating a variety of exercises, focusing on strength training, and maintaining a balanced diet, you can create a more comprehensive and effective weight loss strategy. Remember, the best approach to weight loss is one that you can stick with in the long term and that fits your lifestyle and preferences.

Running for Weight Loss Has Some Serious Downsides You Need to Know About

Imagine a world where depression and anxiety could be managed not through pills but through tiny chips implanted in our brains. While this might sound like the stuff of science fiction, it could be a reality by the year 2030.&nbsp;<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_231655168_S_849185e6d9.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_231655168_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_231655168_S_849185e6d9.jpg 234w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_231655168_S_849185e6d9.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_231655168_S_849185e6d9.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">The shortcomings of traditional antidepressants have led researchers to explore more innovative approaches to mental health treatment. The idea is simple yet revolutionary: directly stimulate specific areas of the brain to regulate mood and alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety.By precisely targeting neural activity, brain chips have the potential to revolutionize mental health care. No longer would patients need to endure the trial-and-error process of finding the right medication or suffer from unwanted side effects.<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_83687726_S_8f217aa8be.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_83687726_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_83687726_S_8f217aa8be.jpg 236w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_83687726_S_8f217aa8be.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_83687726_S_8f217aa8be.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">A recent report by an international communications agency Dentsu highlighted the growing trend towards integrating technology into our daily lives. But how would this futuristic treatment actually work? Experts envision a scenario where individuals undergo a minor surgical procedure to implant the chip into their brains. Once in place, the chip would deliver targeted electrical impulses to specific neural circuits, effectively regulating mood and alleviating symptoms of depression and anxiety.The potential benefits of brain chips extend beyond just treating mental illness. Researchers believe that these devices could enhance cognitive function, improve memory, and even augment human intelligence!

The Truth About Chastity Belts Turned Out to Be Scarier Than We Could Have Imagined

Imagine standing on a beach at night, the waves crashing onto the shore, and suddenly, the water begins to glow with an ethereal blue light. This mesmerizing phenomenon, known as bioluminescence, is one of nature's most magical displays. But what causes the ocean to light up in such a breathtaking way?<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_654278070_S_ce0fbb256d.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_654278070_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_654278070_S_ce0fbb256d.jpg 234w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_654278070_S_ce0fbb256d.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_654278070_S_ce0fbb256d.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">The mesmerizing glow of the ocean is caused by tiny marine organisms called dinoflagellates. These microscopic creatures produce light through a chemical reaction inside their bodies. &nbsp;When disturbed by movement in the water, such as waves or the splash of a kayak paddle, they emit a bluish-green light. This bioluminescence is a defense mechanism meant to scare off predators. &nbsp;<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_235999284_S_39fefb5672.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_235999284_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_235999284_S_39fefb5672.jpg 234w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_235999284_S_39fefb5672.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_235999284_S_39fefb5672.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">Moreover, certain predators, like the anglerfish, use a bioluminescent lure to attract prey within striking distance.

The Ocean's Enchanting Glow: Unveiling its Secret and Where to See It?

Have you ever considered that your attitude toward a half-empty glass could shorten your life? It really does, as a new study from the QIMR Berghofer Genetic Epidemiology Group in Australia has found that pessimists can have a whole lot of health problems - and we can't procrastinate on the details any longer!<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_101521552_S_42076d952c.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_101521552_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_101521552_S_42076d952c.jpg 230w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_101521552_S_42076d952c.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_101521552_S_42076d952c.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">Researchers analyzed data from over three thousand volunteers aged 50 and up, who filled out questionnaires between 1993 and 1995. These questionnaires ask them to spill the beans on their outlooks and feelings.The results? Turns out, having a negative outlook might be bad for more than just your mood. The study showed that those with a pessimistic mindset were more likely to develop cardiovascular diseases and other health issues over the next 25 years. Yikes!&nbsp;Here’s the kicker: the most pessimistic participants ended up dying an average of two years earlier than the optimistic ones. Talk about a buzzkill! It seems that a negative mindset doesn't just make you grumpy—it might actually cut years off your life.<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_35274703_S_da31feda27.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_35274703_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_35274703_S_da31feda27.jpg 234w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_35274703_S_da31feda27.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_35274703_S_da31feda27.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">But why does this happen? The researchers have a theory. They suggest that pessimistic older folks might be more aware of their health problems but feel like there's no point in trying to fix them. So, they skip following the doctor's advice, ditch healthy diets, and avoid exercise. Basically, they give up on taking care of themselves, which can lead to serious health problems.So next time you find yourself grumbling about the world, remember: a little positivity could longer your life!

The Los Angeles he knew, a bustling metropolis, was transformed into a watery wasteland. His description paints a picture of a submerged city, swallowed by a seemingly endless ocean.Edward also claimed that he spoke with the people living there, and they supposedly told him that the flood occurred due to global warming. However, NASA refutes his statements. Representatives of the agency assert that people cannot jump into a time machine and travel back to the past. According to them, such time travel happens only in books and movies.

But are these detox regimens truly beneficial, or are they just a clever marketing ploy? Let's delve into the facts and myths surrounding detoxing.What Is Detox, Really?Detox, short for detoxification, is a term borrowed from the medical world. In a clinical setting, detoxification refers to treatments that remove dangerous substances from the body, such as alcohol, drugs, or poisons. These procedures are often life-saving and conducted in hospitals under strict medical supervision. The medications and methods used in these genuine detox procedures are not something you can find in a juice bar or your fridge.&nbsp;<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_72655469_S_2846471c95.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_72655469_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_72655469_S_2846471c95.jpg 234w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_72655469_S_2846471c95.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_72655469_S_2846471c95.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">Marketers claim that detox products can cleanse your body and improve your health, but they rarely specify what toxins these products supposedly remove. This deliberate vagueness helps create an illusion of health benefits without providing any concrete evidence.The Lack of EvidenceYou won't find detox schemes mentioned in reputable, evidence-based medical sources because there's no scientific proof that detoxing offers any real health benefits.&nbsp;<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_339334386_S_2944ac36be.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_339334386_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_339334386_S_2944ac36be.jpg 234w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_339334386_S_2944ac36be.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_339334386_S_2944ac36be.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">Some detox regimens claim that toxic sludge or mucus builds up in the intestines, providing a breeding ground for parasites and fungi. However, science firmly debunks these claims: no such toxic sludge or mucus exists!Harmless or Harmful?For the most part, homeopathic or mild detox regimens are likely harmless. However, some extreme detox programs can pose risks, especially if they involve severe calorie restriction or untested supplements. Always consult with a healthcare provider before embarking on any detox plan.<img src="/uploads/Depositphotos_65639861_S_2133d76000.jpg" alt="Depositphotos_65639861_S.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Depositphotos_65639861_S_2133d76000.jpg 234w,/uploads/small_Depositphotos_65639861_S_2133d76000.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Depositphotos_65639861_S_2133d76000.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">

Detox: Hype or Health? Unpacking the Truth behind Detox Trends

Lake Lanier, a glistening jewel nestled in the foothills of Georgia, beckons with its turquoise waters and promise of relaxation. But beneath the idyllic surface lurks a darkness that chills even the sunniest day. Legends whisper of a lake haunted not by one restless soul, but by the ghosts of a forgotten town and the lingering spirits of those who perished in its depths.<img src="/uploads/Lake_Lanier_8cdf7a3255.jpg" alt="Lake Lanier.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Lake_Lanier_8cdf7a3255.jpg 245w,/uploads/small_Lake_Lanier_8cdf7a3255.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Lake_Lanier_8cdf7a3255.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">@The Twisted Story Of Lake Lanier: The Hunted Waters That Claimed 700 Lives Since 1956/thoughtnova.comThe haunting begins with the very creation of the lake. In the 1950s, the construction of the Buford Dam flooded a vast swathe of land. Locals claim these submerged settlements haven't truly vanished. On quiet nights, some say, you can hear the faint strains of church bells echoing from the watery depths.Then there's the "Lady of the Lake." In 1958, two young women, Delia Young and Susie Roberts, vanished after their car plunged off a bridge. Their bodies were never found, but some believe their restless spirits haunt the area. Sightings are reported – a ghostly figure in a blue dress roams the shoreline.But the Lady of the Lake isn't alone. Unexplained electronic malfunctions plague boats, compasses spin wildly, and an unsettling sense of dread descends upon some visitors. Strange lights flicker on the water's surface, disembodied voices moan through the fog, and shadowy figures flit across the water's edge, vanishing as quickly as they appear.There are also the unexplained disappearances. Dozens of people have vanished in the lake's depths, their bodies never recovered. Are they victims of treacherous currents or something more sinister?Theories abound. Some believe the restless spirits of those who died during construction or by drowning cling to the lake, forever seeking solace. Others point to the Cherokee legend of the Water Witch, a vengeful spirit who lures the unwary to their doom.Is Lake Lanier a scenic paradise or a paranormal hotspot? The answer might depend on who you ask. But one thing's certain: the lake's troubled past and whispers of the restless dead will continue to lure in curious visitors and ghost hunters alike. So, the next time you find yourself by the lake's shimmering waters, take a moment to listen. You might just hear the faint cries of the eternally lost.

Restless Spirits: Is Georgia's Lake Lanier a Gateway to the Underworld?

It's hard to believe, but in the early 20th century, children were sent by mail like ordinary parcels. This service was actively used in the United States. People fully trusted their children to the postal workers and calmly sent their children on long journeys with them.&nbsp;<img src="/uploads/Mail_Order_Babies_10e2c98dec.jpg" alt="Mail-Order Babies.jpg" srcset="/uploads/thumbnail_Mail_Order_Babies_10e2c98dec.jpg 192w,/uploads/small_Mail_Order_Babies_10e2c98dec.jpg 500w,/uploads/medium_Mail_Order_Babies_10e2c98dec.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw">@Brandillio/reddit.comOn January 1, 1913, the United States Postal Service launched a service for sending parcels weighing up to 50 kg. This innovation allowed the Postal Service to compete with private couriers and enabled some enterprising parents to save on purchasing train tickets. In rural areas, parents would send their children to their grandparents in a mailbag, and the grandparents would return them the same way.The first to use this service were Jesse and Matilda Beagle from Ohio. They sent their 8-month-old son James to his grandmother by mail. The child weighed 5 kg, and his "delivery" cost the parents 15 cents. Jesse and Matilda were careful and insured their son for 50 dollars. Most Americans who used this service did not insure their children.In 1914, the Chief Postmaster of the United States announced that children could no longer be sent by mail. This statement was printed in the Washington Post and The New York Times, but no one took his words seriously. It was not until six years later, on June 13, 1920, that the Postal Service officially declared that sending children as parcels was prohibited. After that, parents had to take their children to their relatives personally.
