Id) The name and address of the printer must appear thereon. 2.— No expression mu6t be used in such an advertisement in relation to property stolen, or criminally taken or disposed of, holding out any expectatio'n that the reward will bo paid on its return without the offender being brought to trial, or without enquiry.
