LAW OF THE UMBRELLA.
An Important Opinion That Has Been
Ascribcd to Lord Coleridpe.

An Important Opinion That Has Beer
Ascribed to Lord Coleridge,
The law as to umbrellas was settled
once for all by Lord Coleridge in a lead
ing English case. His lordship held:
Umbrellas, properly considered, are
part of the atmospheric or meteorolog-
lcal condition, and as such there can be
no individual property right in them.
IN Sampson versus Thompson defendant
was charged with standing OH plaiptitf's
'front.' steps during storm and thereby
soaking up large quantity of rain to
which plaintiff was entitled But fine
court held that the rain was any mans
ram, no matter where it fell. 1t fol.
lows, therefore, that the umbrella is
any mans umbrella. In all ages rain
and umbrellas have gone together and
there is 10 reason why they should be
separated in law An umbrella may
under certain circumstances-the chief
OF which is possession--take on the at
tributes OF personal property, lust as if
a man set tub and catch quantity
or ralnWater that rainwater will be
considered as his personal belonging
while it is in his tub But if the sun

Town again or if -the -tulAis.upset and
he water spilled then the attribute of
PERSONAL ownership instantly disap.
'ears' so II man hold his umbrella in
lis hand it may be considered a ner.
ohal belonging, hut the moment if
caves his hand it returns to the great
eneral, indivisahlo, common stock Of
whittier the law will not of.

Do Not Give Up In De-
spair-There Il Hopel

For agss it has been thought
that Cancer 10 incufable, and
those 20 unfortunate - to have
this dreadful affection have CON-
sidered themselves beyond hope of
recovery. The doctors are ab-
solutely unable to afford any re-
lief, and the poor sufferer might
woll consider himself on the way
to an early grave.
1t u now easy to zee why the
doctors have failed to cure Cancer.
Their theories have been all wrong,
and hence their treatment mis-
directed. They have made the
mistake of thinking that by cut
ting out the sore or ulcer, known
IS Cancer, the disease would be
gotten rid of, and the patient re-
stored to health. But tho cruel
knife accomplishes nothing. for
the Cancer promptly returns and IL
always moro virulent than before.
