Metropolitan Lodge of Instruction , No . 1507 , 1 ms made himself very popular with a large circle of Masonic friends , all of whom , we are assured , will join ns in heartily congratulating him on his preferment .

MASONIC EriQUETtE . —A Grand Lodge Officer , when in his own Lodge , is simply a member , and ranks as suoh according to his statns there . He is subject to the W . M ., and should not wear his Grand Lodge regalia . It is not proper for any member of a Lodge to assume a higher position than the W . M . Of course , a Grand OfBoer may visit his own Lodge officially from the Grand Lodge , in which case he so declares himself and signs the attendance book , and is announced with his Grand Lodge title . —Victorian Freemason .

HOLI . OWJ . Y' 8 OnmrEHT AND Pins . —Rheumatism and Rheumatic gout aro the most dreaded of all diseases , because their victims know that they are safe at no season , and at no age secure . Holloway ' s Ointment , after fomentation of the painful parts gives greater relief than any othoi- application ; but it must be diligently used to obtain this desirable result . It is highly commended by rheumatic subjects of all ages and of both sexes , for rendering their attacks less frequent and less vigorous , and for repressing the sore perspirations and soothing the nerves . In many cases , Holloway ' s Ointment and Pills have proved the greatest blessing in removing rheumatism and rheumatic gout which has assailed persons previously and at the prime of life .

NEWSPAPER SUBSCRIBERS . WE regret to say that some brethren , who have only given a verbal order to ns to send them the Rough Ashlar , have , after receiving it for two or three years , been mean enough to refuse payment on the ground that they never ordered it . We have not yet summoned a brother , bnt having several pounds now owing in this way , we will offer them the alternative of paying up before the

end of June , We remember reading of a priest who , not receiving the tithes from some of his parishioners , one Sunday alluded to the fact , and said , " I won't be mentioning names at present , ' but if Tim O'Brien don't pay his dnes this week I'll have to name him from the altar next Sunday . " How wonld oar defaulting subscribers ( t ) like ns to adopt the plan of publishing their names ? We beg to direct their attention to the following : —

LAWS RELATING TO NEWSPAPERS . Judging from a recent case , a great many newspaper subscribers are ignorant of the law bearing npon the subject . For their benefit we make the following statutory extracts , which we commend them to " read , mark , and learn" . '—Any person who takes a paper regularly from a post-office—whether directed to his name or another ' s , or whether he has subscribed or not—is responsible for the

payment . " " If a person orders his paper to be discontinued he mnst pay all arrears , or the publisher may continue to send it until payment is made , and collect the whole amount whether the paper is taken from the office or not . " The Courts have decided that refusing to take newspapers and periodicals from the post-office , or removing and leaving them uncalled for , is prima facie evidence of intended fraud . —Rough Ashlar .
