Two important and far-reaching
provisions dealing with the circula-

Under the provisions of the act
Uncle Sam will have possession of

to print the figures, which must be
sworn to, after they have been sub
mitted to the postof1ce department.
1t is further required that not lat
er than April and October L of each
year the editor, publisher, business
manager or owner of every publica-

with the provisions set forth will be

istered letter of such failure.
Relative to the designation of ad-

The Poppy.

The poppy throughout the east is an
emblem of death In many parts of
India this flower is planted upon
graves and in cemeteries. Whether or
not the idea was suggested by the
poisonous character of the juice is un-
certain. 1t is believed that the poppy
was known as a funeral plant to the
ancient Egyptians. for upon the tombs
opened by Belzoni there appeared rep

DR.. w. J. Aldrich of ST. Johns

yesterday when the oath of Office
was being administered in the House.
For some time past DR.. Aldrich has
been an assistant pension examiner
in his district, serving on infrequent
occasions when the regular exam
iners were incapaciated or absent.
For such service, covering many
months of time up to and including
June last, the doctor has been paid
SIS.
While he had not considered him
self as holding an Office of profit I'M
der the government, within the
meaning of the statutes, he has not
resigned such an Office, and being in
doubt in the matter, very properly
pocketed his hands and his aspira-
tions for the moment and retired
from the scene until such time as he
may be convinced of his right to re-
turn and exercise the duties for
which he was chosen.

Ancestral Homes.

Ancestral Homes.
That historic German ghost, the
White Lady of the Hohenzollerns.
would seem to have more than legend
airy basis. So far as l am aware, this
ghost has never been investigated by
properly qualified psychical research
ers but its credentials are too well au-
thenticated to be ignored. The mission
Of the White Lady. apparently. is to
announce the death Of some member
Of the Hohenzollern family, and her
most frequent haunting place is the
royal palace at Berlin. She was seen
as early as 1923, and since the time of
Frederick the Great her appearance
has been regularly chronicled on the
eve Of the death of the king OF Prussia
For the matter of that, there are not
a few families whose ancestral homes,
according to tradition, are haunted by
death announcing ghosts. This is par
ticularly the case with certain disttn-
guished British families. The York
shire Middletons, a Catholic family, are
said to be warned of approaching death
by the apparition Of Benedictine nun.
Cortachy castle, which belongs to the
earls of Airlie. is haunted by a ghostly
drummer. who beats his drum when
ever death is near an Airlie. Two white
owls perching on the roof of the family
mansion are taken as sure omen Of
death in the Arundel OF Wardour fam
lily. Finally, tradition has it that the
death of an Argyll is foretold in most
impressive manner by phantom
hearse driving up to the door.-Metro-
