has come to the knowledge of the Manager that in some- cases higher rates are being charged, on the plea that the. heavy weight of THE LANCET necessitates additional. postage above the ordinary rate allowed for in the terms of9 subscriptions.

THE LANCET have for many years paid, and continue to pay, the whole of the heavy cost of postage on overweight foreign

issues; and Agents are authorised to collect, and generally- do so collect, from the Proprietors the cost of such extra: postage.
