EDITORIAL NOTICES.IT is most important that communications relating to the

Editorial business of THE LANCET should be addressed

exclusively "To THE EDITORS," and not in any case to anygentleman who may be supposed to be connected with theEditorial staff. It is urgently necessary that attention begiven to this notice. -

It is especially requested that early intelligence of local eventshaving a medical interest, or which it is desirable to bringunder the notice of the profession, may be sent direct tothis office.

Lectures, original articles, and reports skould be gvrttten onone side of the paper only, AND WHEN ACCOMPANIEDBY BLOCKS IT IS REQUESTED THAT THE NAME OF THE

AUTHOR, AND IF POSSIBLE OF THE ARTICLE, SHOULDBE WRITTEN ON THE BLOCKS TO FACILITATE IDENTI-FICATION.

Letters, whether intended for insertion or for private informa-’ tion, must be authenticated by the names and addresses ot

their writers-not necessarily for publication.We cannot prescribe or recommend practitioners.Local papers containing reports or news paragraphs should be

marked and addressed ° To the Sub-Editor."Letters relating to the publication, sale and advertising de-

partments of THE LANCET should be addressed " To theManager." "

We cannot undertake to return MSS. not used.

M A N A G E R’S NOTICES.TO SUBSCRIBERS.

WILL Subscribers please note that only those subscriptionswhich are sent direct to the Proprietors of THE LANCETat their Offices, 423, Strand, W.C., are dealt with by them? Subscriptions paid to London or to local newsagents (withnone of whom have the Proprietors any connexion what-ever) do not reach THE LANCET Offices, and consequentlyinquiries concerning missing copies, &c., should be sent tothe Agent to whom the subscription is paid, and not toTHE LANCET Offices.

Subscribers, by sending their subscriptions direct toTHE LANCET Offices, will insure regularity in the despatchof their Journals and an earlier delivery than the majorityof Agents are able to effect.The rates of subscriptions, post free, either from

THE LANCET Offices or from Agents, are :-FOR THE UNITED EiNSDOM. TO THE COLONIES ANT) ABROAD.

SUBSCRIBERS ABROAD ARE PARTICULARLY REQUESTEDTO NOTE THE RATES OF SUBSCRIPTIONS GIVEN ABOVE. Ithas come to the knowledge of the Manager that in somecases higher rates are being charged, on the plea that theheavy weight of THE LANCET necessitates additional

postage above the ordinary rate allowed for in the terms ofsubscriptions. Any demand for increased rates, on this or onany other ground, should be resisted. The Proprietors ofTHE LANCET have for many years paid, and continue to pay,the whole of the heavy cost of postage on overweight foreignissues ; and Agents are authorised to collect, and do so

collect, from the Proprietors the cost of such extra postage.The Manager will be pleased to forward copies direct from

the Offices to places abroad at the above rates, whatever bethe weight of any of the copies so supplied. Address-THE MANAGER, THE LANCET OFFICES, 423, STRAND,LONDON, ENGLAND.
