Attention, Subscribers!

Most readers of newspapers and many
publishers are not familiar with the
laws governing subscriptions. Here are
the decisions of the United States court
on the subject. They will be interesting
TO publishers and many will undoubtedly
be glad of the opportunity to print them
for the benefit of delinquent subscribers:
Subscribers who do not give express
notice to the contrary are considered as
wishing to renew their subscriptions.
"If the subscribers order discontinu
ance of their publication, the publisher
may continue to send them until all
dues are paid.
IF the subscriber refuses 10 take pc
rodicals from the postoffice to which
they are directed he is responsible until
he has settled his bill and ordered the
paper discontinued.
IF subscribers move TO other places
without informing the publisher and the
papers are sent to former address, the
subscriber is held responsible.
THE courts have held that refusing
to take periodicals from the postoffice or
removing and leaving them uncalled for
is prima facie evidence of intention to
defraud.
'1f any subscribers pay in advance,
they are bound to give notice at the end
of the time if they do not wish 10 con-
tinue taking il, otherwise the subscriber
is responsible until express notice with
payment of all arrearage is sent to the
publisher
