Miss McDowell struck. the bird with a stick. when it swooped down on hur head and shoul- ders, tea-ring the flesh- and clothing. The cash: repeated the attack half a dozen times, when the young woman thrust a large steel lint-pin into the big bird’s neck and brea<t and succeeded in killingit. Miss McDowell's face, hands and arms were torn by the eagle’s talous. Eighty hogs were killed at \Vindsor, Ont, durim: the past week because of hog cholera. . .

Sta,- , Allow me space in your paper to make reply to it piece from Powles's Cor- ners in the Gouda of Nov. 13th, referring to school matters, in which your correspond. out said that “ the parent; that Would keep I boy home from school and would not let him learn his lessons should taste the sweetness of the law.” Had he used the plural instead of the singular I should have let the matter pass unnoticed. I had a chat with the teacher and trustee (J. B Powlos), and the matter cxplatned why he was kept home. But through. spttc and nothing more was that piece written, which tore open the old wound and added a little more wormwood and grill. Had that cor- respondent a grain of commonsense he would never have stooped to writing such trash. It has become an abomination and Itinkcth in the sight of the people. Why, air, one of the Lindsay papers has refused to publish any more of his trash. Had that correspondent tasted the sweetness of the law (as he calls it) some years ago instead of an apology for alandertng people he would have been a wiser and a better man to-dny. Had he mentioned any name he should have tasted the swactness of the law. Yours truly, A RATEPAYER. DIED. Alannaâ€"In the township of Verulam, on Sunday. November 39th, 1896, Mn.

NEWSPAPER LAW. 1. A postmaster is required to give notice by letter (returning the paper does not. answer the law), when a subscriber does not take his paper out of the office and state the reasons for its not being taken. ' Any neglect to do so makes the postmaster responsible to the publisher for payment. 2. If any person orders his paper discon- tinued he must pay all arrearages, or the publisher may continue to send it until payment is made, and collect the whole amount, whether it is taken from the office or not. There can be no legal discontinu- ance until the payment is made. 3. Any person who takes a paper from the post-office, whether directed to his name or another, or whether he has sub- scribed or not, is rcsponsible for the pay. 4. If a subscriber orders his papa-r to be stopped at a certain time, and the pub- lisher continurs to send, the subscriber is bound to pay for it if he takes it out of the post-office. This proeecds upon the ground that a man must pay for what he uses. 5.
