FUGITIVE OFFENDERS. A case has come under the notice of the Editor, in which a person whose apprehension was sought in England, and who was described in the POLICE GAZETTE, gave himself up to. the Colonial Polioe. The prosecutor declined to take any further action in the matter, but the case necessitated the dispatch of two telegrams, the cost of which had to be refunded by him. To avoid such expense, the Editor requests, that if there is reason to believe that a fugitive offender is likely to go to the Colonies, and the prosecutor is un- willing to incur any expense, with a view to obtain bis surrender, a notification be made in the communi- cation sent to this Office to the effeot that the offender is not to be arrested beyond the United Kingdom. The necessity for the adoption of such a course will be apparent from the fact that the POLICE GAZETTE is circulated in the Colonies. age 41, height 5 ft. 6 in., slight, complexion pale, hair brown, eyes grey, moustache light; dress, shabby gen- teel ; frequents common lodging- houses.

" THE FAMILY DOCTOR " does not attempt to rival the many valuable works by which the Medical Profession is assisted in the discharge of its duties, but it ex- tends the usefulness of those works, by analysing their contents and presenting them in a form adapted to the non- professional mind. The important subjects of Drainage, Ventilation, and Water Supply, as bearing on the healthiness of the Dwelling, is dealt with by experienced Sanitary Engineers and Officers of Health. ' THE FAMILY DOCTOR" gives hints as to the regulation of the Sick Room and the Nursery, with full descriptions of such furniture and appliances as modern skill has provided for the comfort and help of Invalids.

THE LOVE OF CHRSST. Right here I want to ask you if Christ is worth having 1 I imagine some of you will say that this is a strange question. Perhaps it is, but it does seem to me that a great many men do think that Christ is not worth having. If they do really want Him, let them take Him. He was God's greatest gift to the world. He is there for you and for me to accept. Christ wants to be a Saviour to every one of us. You must first meet Him at Calvary, first see Him on the cross. Mind, I do not ask you to trust in the mere form of godliness— thousands make that great mistake. Come to Him as a personal Saviour. I do not know how many times I have heard men say, " I would come to Him and love Him, but I don't think I could hold out." But He is not only a Saviour, but a deliverer. He can deliver us from the power of sin— from Satan. There is not a guilt, crime, trouble, or trial from which the Son of God is not able to deliver us. Then Christ is the way. When a man goes into the wilderness to hunt, he takes a hatchet with him, and cuts the bark off the trees, they call it " blazing "— and thus he can find his track out, or others can follow in his track. So Christ has blazed the way along. He has gone up on high, and He says, " Follow Me." More than this, He is the light upon our way. I heard of an infidel once who said, " Look at your convert, it is all moonshine ;" and the young convert replied, " I thank you for the compli- ment ; we are willing to be called that. The moon borrows the light from the sun, and so we borrow ours from Christ." He is thy keeper ; He is thy shepherd, and the shepherd takes care of the sheep. Did you ever hear of the sheep taking care of the shepherd? " I shall not want." I will not speak of His wisdom, righteousness, strength, and power. It would take eternity to tell all about Christ. But I want to speak of one other thing that the Lord is ; He is a burden- bearer. There is not a poor sin- weary mortal that may not at once cast his burden upon Christ. People sometimes pray to have their burden taken from them ; and then they will rise up and take their burdens on their shoulders and go away unre- lieved. Cast all your burden upon the Lord. I like to think of Him as the burden- bearer. D. L. MOODY. ROYAL IRISH WAREHOUSE ALL POLICEMEN SHOULD REFER TO MESSRS, JAMES HIGHLAND & CO.'
