and whined: "Oh. my lord, I'll never
live half the time" Hawkins took an
other look at him and answered: I
don't think it is at all desirable that
you should
The formality of asking newly con-
victed prisoner if he had anything TO
say why sentence should not be passed

either says nothing, or curses at large
in his rage, but one of them struck a
theatrical posture. and with his right
handsin the air shouted: May the AL

the truth. l am innocent of this crime"
Justice Hawkins said nothing for about
a minute. when. after glancing a the
clock. he Illuminated in his most i'm
pressive tones: Since the Almighty has

THE NEWSPAPER LAW.
All Subscribers Should Read the
Following Law anu Avoid
Trouble.

/: All Subscribers who do not
give express notice to the contrary
are considered wishing to continue
their subscription.
q. If subscribers order the dis
continuance Of their periodical the
publisher may continue to send it
until all arrearages are paid.
s.. If subscribers refuse or neglect
to take their periodicals from the
Office to which they are directed,
they are responsible until they have
settled their bills and ordered them
discontinued.
4. Subscribers moving to tn er
places without informing the b.
Usher, and tho papers are sent to the
former address, they are held respon-
sibls.
8. The courts have decided that
refusing to take periodicals from the
Office or removing and leaving them
nncalled for, is prima facie violence
of intended fraud.
s. If subscribers pay in advance
they are bound to give notice at the
end of the time they do not wish to
continue taking it, and the subscriber
will he responsible until an express
hotice with all arrearages are sent to

7. The latest laws are such that
ne vspaper publishers can arrest any
one for fraud who takes paper and
refuses to pay for. 1t.
Under the law the man who allows
his subscription to run along some
time unpaid, and then orders the
postmaster to mark it "refussd" and
have postal card sent notifying the
publisher, leaves himself liable to ar
rest and fine, the Same as for theft.

Scientific American: Mr.. Alphonse
Berget recently described method
: Of studying the expansion of liquids
by means of Photography. Two
balances Of equal sensibility, with
their planes of oscillation at right
angels, carry two weight thermom-
eters, one containing the liquid IN
der examination, and the other mer-
curry. A ray of light is reflected from
two mirrors, one on each beam, and
this records on sensitive plate q
curve analogous to Lissajous's figures.
This curve is the graphical represent
t.tion of the expansion of the liquid.
-, Tho practical rejection by the Uni
ted States congress committee Of the
last Canadian reciprocity offers should
settle the matter. Mr.. George Brown
in 1874, did all that manly man
could to secure confessions from
Washington, and failed. Sir Richard
Cartwright and Mr.. Davis in 1897
did some things that manly man
could not do, and also failed. It is
time to give up struggling for legisla-
tion at Washington to help Canada.
