[Sidenote: Notification to publishers of non-delivery.]

When the numbers of a newspaper published in Canada or in either of the
other British North American Provinces, or in the United States, and
issued daily, have remained in a post office in Canada uncalled for
during two weeks; of a newspaper issued semi-weekly, or tri-weekly,
during three weeks; of a newspaper issued weekly, during one month; and
of a monthly periodical during two months, or when such newspapers and
periodicals have been refused to be taken by the party to whom
addressed, the postmaster is instructed to notify the respective
publishers in the proper form, which is to pass free of postage. If the
newspaper or periodical continues to arrive after the notice has been
sent, the postmaster is instructed to notify the publisher in the same
way a second time, specially calling his attention to the first notice
given.

[Sidenote: Enclosures in newspapers.]

To enclose a letter, or any writing, or to make any written marks to
serve the purposes of a letter, or to enclose any other thing (except
publishers' accounts and receipts, as before mentioned) in a newspaper
posted to pass as a newspaper, is a misdemeanor. Postmasters are
requested at once to transmit all newspapers containing such writing,
marks, and enclosures to the Postmaster General.
