Change  and  Bad  Money. — No  Postmaster  is  bound  to  give 
Change,  or  is  authorised  to  demand  Change  ;  and  when  any  money 
is  paid  at  this  office,  whether  as  change  or  otherwise,  no  question  as 
to  its  right  amount,  goodness,  or  weight  can  be  entertained  after  it

POST  OFFICE  SAVINGS  BANKS. 

Every  Post  Office  Savings  Bank  is  also  a  Money  Order  Office, 
and  is  open  for  bank  business  during  the  same  hours  as  for  Money 
Orders. 

Deposits  of  one  shilling,  or  of  any  number  of  shillings,  or  of 
pounds  and  shillings,  may  be  made  by  any  person  at  the  Post  Office 
Savings  Banks,  provided  that  such  depositor  shall  not  make  deposits 
amounting  to  more  than  ^30  in  any  year  ending  the  31st  December, 
or  make  any  further  deposit  when  the  amount  standing  in  his  name, 
exclusive  of  interest,  exceeds  ;£x5o.  When  any  depositor's  princi- 
ple and  interest  amount  together  to  ^200,  all  interest  will  cease  so 
long  as  the  balance  of  the  account  continues  to  amount  to  the  said 
sum  of  ^200. 

Interest,  calculated  yearly  at  the  rate  of  £2  10s  per  cent,  per 
annum,  will  be  allowed  on  every  complete  pound  deposited, 
reckoned  from  the  first  day  of  the  calendar  month  next  following 
the  day  on  which  a  complete  pound  shall  have  been  deposited  or 
completed  up  to  the  first  day  of  the  calendar  month  in  which  the 
moneys  are  withdrawn.

- 

4d 

A  letter  above  the  weight  of  12  oz.  is  liable  to  a  postage  of  id  for 
every  ounce,  beginning  with  the  first  ounce.  Thus,  a  letter  weigh- 
ing between  14  and  15  oz.  must  be  prepaid  is  3d. 

A  letter  posted  unpaid  is  chargeable  on  delivery  with  double 
postage  ;  and  a  letter  posted  insufficiently  prepaid  is  chargeable 
with  double  the  deficiency. 

ADDRESSES  TO  THE  QUEEN  AND  PETITIONS  TO  PARLIAMENT. 

Petitions  and  Addresses  to  her  Majesty,  forwarded  direct,  are 
exempt  from  postage  ;  and   such  petitions  and   addresses,  as  also 


22  MREOTORY. 

petitions  to  either  House  of  Parliament,  if  sent  to  a  Member  of 
either  House,  are  likewise  exempt,  provided  they  do  not  weigh 
more  than  two  pounds,  and  are  without  covers,  or  are  in  covers 
open  at  the  sides.  No  letter,  or  other  enclosure,  however,  must 
be  inserted,  and  if  one  be  found,  such  enclosure,  unless  it  bears  the 
proper  number  of  postage  stamps,  will  be  charged  as  an  unpaid 
letter. 


INLAND  NEWSPAPERS.. 

For  each  inland  newspaper,  whether  posted  singly  or  in  a  packet, 
the  postage,  when  prepaid,  is  one  halfpenny  ;  but  a  packet  contain- 
ing two  or  more  registered  newspapers  is  not  chargeable  with  a 
higher  rate  of  postage  than  would  be  chargeable  on  a  book  packet 
of  the  same  weight,  viz.,  one  halfpenny  for  every  two  oz.  or  part  of 
that  weight.  ^ 

A  newspaper  posted  unpaid,  or  a  packet  of  newspapers  posted 
either  unpaid  or  insufficiently  paid,  is  treated  as  an  unpaid  or  in- 
sufficiently paid  book  packet  of  the  same  weight. 

The  newspaper  wrappers,  which  are  of  three  different  sizes,  are 
sold  at  twelve  for  64d. 

The  Post  Cards,  are  not  sold  singly,  but  in  packets  of  twelve  for  63d. 


INLAND  BOOK  POST. 

The  following  are  the  regulations  for  the  Inland  Book  Post  : — 

The  postage  is  one  halfpenny  for  every  2  oz.  or  part  of  that 
weight. 

A  packet  posted  wholly  unpaid  is  charged  with  double  the  book 
postage  ;  and  if  posted  partially  prepaid,  with  double  the  deficiency. 

A  book  packet  may  be  posted  either  without  a  cover  (in  which 
case  it  must  not  he  fastened,  whether  by  means  of  gum,  wafer, 
sealing  wax,  postage  stamp,  or  otherwise),  or  in  a  cover  entirely 
open  at  both  ends,  so  as  to  admit  of  the  contents  being  easily  with- 
drawn for  examination  ;  otherwise  it  is  treated  as  a  letter.  For  the 
greater  security  of  the  contents,  however,  it  may  be  tied  at  the  ends 
with  string  ;_  Postmasters  being  authorised  to  cut  the  string  in  such 
cases,  although,  if  they  do  so  they  must  again  tie  up  the  packet.. 

Circular^ — i.e.,  letters  which  are  intended  for  transmission  in 
identical  terms  to, several  persons,  and  the.  whole  or  the  greater  part 
of  which  is  printed^  engraved,  or  lithographed,— rnay  also.  be.  sent  by 
book  post. 


REGISTRATION. 

The  fee  for  registering  a  letter,  newspaper,  or  book  packet  pass- 
ing between  any  two  places  in  the  United  Kingdom  is  fourpence. 


DIRECTORY.  23 

The  same  fee  is  chargeable  for  the  registration  of  letters,  news- 
papers, book  packets,  and  patterns  to  the  British  Colonies,  United 
States,  Germany,  Italy,  Switzerland  (via  Belgium  and  British  Post 
Offices  in  Egypt  and  Constantinople). 

Every  letter  to  be  registered  should  be  presented  at  the  counter, 
and  a  receipt  obtained  for  it,  and  should  on  no  account  be  dropped 
into  the  letter  box.  If,  contrary  to  this  rule,  a  letter  marked  "  Re- 
gistered "  be  dropped  into  the  letter  box,  it  will,  "  if  directed  to  any 
place  in  the  United  Kingdom  or  the  British  Colonies,"  be  liable  to 
a  registration  fee  of  8d,  instead  of  the  ordinary  fee  of  4-d. 

The  registration  of  a  packet  makes  its  transmission  much  more 
secure,  inasmuch  as,  under  ordinary  circumstances,  a  registered 
packet  can  be  traced  through  its  whole  course  ;  and  thus  the  loss  of 
a  registered  packet  is  a  rare  occurrence. 


POST  OFFICE    TELEGRAPHS. 

The  charge  for  the  transmission  of  an  Inland  Message,  that  is  a 
message  going  from  one  part  of  the  United  Kingdom  to  another, 
is  uniformly,  and  without  regard  to  distance,  one  shilling  for  the 
first  twenty  words,  exclusive  of  the  address,  for  which  no  charge  is 
made,  and  3d  for  each  additional  five  words,  or  part  of  five  words. 
Any  additional  information  which  the  public  may  require  with 
regard  to  the  charges  on,  and  regulations  for,  the  transmission  of 
Inland  or  Foreign  Messages,  may  be  obtained  at  any  Postal  Tele- 
graph Office. 

Telegraph  business  is  transacted  from  6.45  A.M.  till  8  P.M.  on 
Week  Days,  and  on  Sundays  from  9  a.m.  till  10.30  A.M.,  and  from 
12.30  to  1.30  P.M.

THE     COXJTsTTY 
FIRE  &  PROVIDENT  LIFE  OFFICE 

IS   ONE   OF  THE 

Oldest,  Wealthiest,  &  Cheapest  In  the  United  Kingdom. 

By  the  last  Official  Return,  its  Increase  of  Business  exceeded 

that  of  every  other  Office  in  London. 
Established  67  Years  ago,  it  has  now  a  capital  of  nearly 

TWO    AND    A-HALF    MILLIONS. 

While  the  Scale  Rate  of  the  Annual  Premium  contrasts  more 
than  favourably  with  other  Offices,  the  BONUS  ADDITIONS 
are  extremely  liberal.  Thus,  in  November  last,  a  £4000  Policy 
became  a  claim,  and  through  Bonus  Additions  the  sum  paid  was 
£9,039  ;  and  in  several  of  the  Policies  presently  in  force  in  the 
Ayr  Agency,  the  Bonuses  are  so  large  as  to  reduce  the  Annual 
Premium  to  a  mere  Nominal  sum  of  a  few  Shillings  on  the  £100 
insured.  Such  liberal  Bonuses  are  only  to  be  had  from  an  OLD 
ESTABLISHED  and  EMINENTLY  SUCCESSFUL  Office  such 
as  the  Provident. 

The  characteristic  feature  of  the  Office  is  that  while  there  are 
Shareholders  and  a  responsible  Directorate,  nearly  the  whole  of 
the  Profits  are  divided  among  the  Insured.  At  the  last  Division, 
out  of  every  £100  of  Profit,  £96  12s  Id  was  divided  in  Bonuses 
amongst  the  Insured. 

Another  exceptional  and  most  important  feature  is  that 
ANNUAL  Bonuses  are  allowed  when  death  occurs  between  two 
«f  the  Five  yearly  division  periods. 


FIRE     DEPARTMENT. 

In  the  Fire  Department  the  cheapness  of  the  Annual  Premium 
is  unsurpassed  by  any  other  Office  ;  and  yet,  apart  from  this, 
every  Seventh  Year  the  Profits  of  the  Company  are  divided 
amongst  the  Insured,  which,  in  the  Fire  Department,  have  been 
fixed  at  25  per  Cent.,  or  about  equal  to  ONE  AND  A-HALF 
YEAR'S  IREMIUM,  so  that  every  Sixth  Year  only  about  half 
of  the  Annual  Premium  is  called  for,  and  every  Seventh  Year 
there  is  nothing  whatever  to  pay. 

In  no  other  Fire  Office  do  the  Insured  participate  in  the  Profits. 

As  showing  the  amount  of  business  in  the  FIRE  DEPART- 
MENT, it  may  be  mentioned  that  the  amount  at  present  insured 
on  FARM  STOCK  alone  exceeds  TEN  MILLIONS.

ADVEETISEMENTS. 

THE    LONDON 

CUARANTEE  AND  ACCIDENT  COMPANY  (LIMITED), 

12  ST.  ANDREW  SQUARE,  EDINBURGH. 


(1)   GUARANTEE  DEPARTMENT. 

Bonds  are  granted  whereby  the  Company  undertakes  to  make 
good,  loss  sustained  by  reason  of  the  fraud  or  dishonesty  of  per- 
sons receiving  or  holding  money,  or  securities  for  money,  or  en- 
trusted with  property  of  any  kind. 

The  undoubted  responsibility  of  the  Company  is  shown  by  the 
fact  that  its  Guarantee  Bonds  are  accepted  in  all  the  Departments 
of  Her  Majesty's  Government,  including  the  Customs,  Inland 
Revenue,  the  Post  Office,  the  Admiralty,  &c.  Bonds  are  also 
accepted  by  other  Municipal  Corporations,  and  by  various  Banks 
and  Railways,  and  other  large  Companies  throughout  the  United 
Kingdom,  India,  and  Australia. 

The  different  kinds  of  risk  have  been  carefully  classified,  and 
the  Company  is  therefore  in  a  position  to  undertake  the  same  at 
the  lowest  possible  scale  of  premium. 

There  are  special  terms  for  guaranteeing  all  the  members  of  a 
staff. 


(2)  ACCIDENT   DEPARTMENT- 

The  experience  of  Accident  Insurance  Companies  shows  that 
one  person  in  every  eleven  meets  with  an  accident  in  the  course 
of  the  year. 

ORDINARY  RISKS. 

A  Policy  for  ,£1000,  if  killed,  or  £Q  per  week  while  totally 
disabled,  costs  £3  per  Annum. 

<£500,  if  killed,  or  ,£3  per  week  while  totally  disabled,  for 
35s  per  Year. 

o£250,  if  killed,  or  30s  per  week  while  totally  disabled,  for 
20s  per  Annum. 

Partial  disablement  may  be  insured  for  an  extra  yearly  pay- 
ment of  2S  for  every  ,£100  assured.

of  the  community.  In  fact,  no  announcement 
can  be  fully  brought  before  the  Inhabitants  of 
Ayrshire  unless  published  in  its  columns.

rpHE  circulation  of  the  "AYR  OBSERVER"

papers is  rapidly  approaching 

TWENTY  THOUSAND  COPIES  WEEKLY, 

being  more  than  equal  to  all  other  Ayrshire 
Papers  put  together. 

Reaching  every  class,  and  in  many  districts 
being  the  only  Papers  generally  read,  the  Ob- 
server and  Argus  and  Express  (now  belonging 
to  one  Proprietor)  offer  to  Advertisers  peculiar 
advantages  afforded  by  no  other  Paper  in  the 
district. 

No  objectionable  Advertisements  are  inserted 
on  any  terms  ;  but  every  encouragement  is  given 
to  Local  Advertisers  to  enter  into  contracts  for 
the  Quarter,  Half-year,  or  Year.  This  offers  the 
most  effective  means  for  obtaining  publicity,  and 
the  charges  are  comparatively  moderate.

THE  WESTERN  ARGUS  and  AYRSHIRE 
EXPRESS  are  now  incorporated,  and  in 
future  will  appear  under  the  above  title.  The 
united  efforts  of  the  Staff  of  Contributors  and 
Correspondents  connected  with  each  of  these 
Papers  are  now  devoted  to  one,  and  the  resources 
thus  concentrated  in  support  of  the 

ARGUS    AND    EXPRESS, 

ENABLES   IT  TO   TAKE   RANK   AS 

The  Best  Weekly  Paper  Published  in  Ayrshire. 

Printed  ar.d  Published  in  the  County  Town  : 
different  Editions,  containing  all  the  Local  and 
General  News  up  to  the  hours  of  going  to  press, 
are  Published  to  suit  the  speediest  means  of  con- 
veyance to  every  part  of  Ayrshire — Agents  being 
appointed  in  every  Village,  embracing  Mining 
Manufacturing  and  Agricultural  districts. 

As  a  medium  for  Advertisements  the  Argvs 
and  Express  cannot  be  over-rated.  The  circula- 
tion of  the  Argvs,  already  much  larger  than  that 
of  any  other  Paper  Published  in  the  South- 
western Counties  of  Scotland,  combined  with 
that  of  the  Express — an  old-established  County 
Paper — presents  an  unequalled  medium  to  Ad- 
vertisers desirous  of  publicity  among  all  classes 
of  the  community.  In  fact,  no  announcement 
can  be  fully  brought  before  the  Inhabitants  of 
Ayrshire  unless  published  in  its  columns.
