Probably you can't imagine what a sea animal wants of it life preserver.

In the ancient life of Mesopotamia the surgeon failed to occupy the e-- alted position aceorded him in the present age, end to discourage hila from making rash operations severe penalties were fixed in ease of aneatk ressfnl ones. If the Patient died tilh surgeon's hands were cut off, In the ease of a slave he had to replace bioi With one of eonal value. If tbo slave's eye was lost he had to pay half the value o4 the slave. IL a veterinary surgeon were successful he received one-sixth of * shekel, but If the animal died he had to pay one•eietle of *6* value. An Ubealved Puzzle of Biology.

Of course, there Is an explanation, but we cannot even guess a tit as yet, With this, as with so many other scientific questions, all we can say Is, with Ilex - ley, that we are not afraid to announce that we do not know, -Theodore Roo6evett in Seribner's Magazine, The Way it Gee*.

DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE, OTTAWA OCTOBER 785, 1906. grinEMEMEMMINMEMERSthanSMOrnTrM TO . UR E WI a It is a very well-known fact that paper, ink, type, indeed everything which goes into the make-up of a newspaper, has go.ie up very materially in price during the last two years, So serious has become the situation that nearly all the daily papers have raised the price of subscription and many of the local weeklies also have found it necessary to raise the price of a year's subscription from One Dollar to One Dollar and Fifty Cents. The publisher of The News -Record is desirous of leaving the subscription price at the old figare, but in order to make such a line of action possible it will be necessary for our subscribers to show their loyalty to the paper by bringing or sending in their subscriptions promptly. All arrears must be paid, and every subscription should read one year in advance by the end,of 1916. This would give The News-Reeord confidence as showing that its many readers appreciate our efforts to supply a live, newsy weekly paper at the old price. rrr..rr.®ra.
