Short Weight in Australia.

The disclosures that have recently
been made of the serious extent to
which the public are made to suffer loss
through the lightweight methods
adopted in supplying many articles OF
common consumption should stir up the
community to insist on preventive ac-
ton 1t is nothing short of a public
scandal that people should be served
as at present, with short-weight allow
ances of so many-of the necessaries of
life, to say nothing of the comforts
and luxuries. The DECEPTION. 1t is clear
from the statements published. is very
widely Dracticed. and. in fact, has be-
come general in certain branches of
trade. There is either fraud on the
part of the seller or a Dernicious Gus
tom of trade sanctioned by usage: and
the wholesale tampering with weights
should be sternly suppressed.
It is a matter of common knowledge
that in the supply of bread there are
numerous sellers who are guilty of CIV
ing short weight. and the list of sue
cessful prosecutions has been a long
one but bread is only one out of nu-
merous articles in the purchase OF
they receive, apart altogether from the
question of quality. AS the public APP
pear to have no legal protection they
should protect themselves by first MAX
ing themselves acquainted, as far as
they can. with the tricks of the trade,
and then insisting. in the light of their
knowledge, on getting full weight for
their money. A fragrant case of in
justice done to the public is in the sale

the slightest sound didn't go through
her aching head like a bullet. 1t never

and-and-"
Mrs. Bovser had her hand on his
forehead. and the tears came to his
eyes with a gush and he broke down
and wept like a BOBBY. She sat down
and held his hands until he finally fell
asleep, and though she might have
charged him with doing score of inn
prudent things, she didn't mention
single one. Neither did she sing or
attempt to whistle, and when she heard
the cook making too much noise in the
kitchen she went down and cautioned
her that Mr. Bowser's life depended on
complete quiet.
After couple of hours he woke up,
and grudgingly admitted that he felt
better though he was looking for a
speedy return of the pains and Dangs.
Then he wanted tea, toast, jelly and
sympathy all mixed up. and insisted
that at least two doctors be sent for,
and he was as petulant as three-year-
old child about going to bed. The COOK
struck up song as she hnlshed WASH
ing her dishes. and he demanded that
she be discharged in the middle of her
month without pay.
He fell asleep soon after being tucked
in, and Mrs. Bowser heard no more from
him during the remainder of the night.
He was a different man next morning.
In other words. Bowser was himself

was quite better he stiffened up and re-
