Therefore the duty on the twine west

ince of the Dominion. The figures of

a sum in simple proportion will make

In July last M. CAIIILLv FLAY-
eARIltN, the French astronomer,
stated that for five years the climate
of Europe had been changing, both
Winter and Summer becoming cooler,
but that he hail noticed no such change
in the United States or Conaria.
M. FLAr*IARtoi evidently did not
pity as much attention to Canadian
weather during the putt lice years as
he did to that of Europe, or he would
have discovered that Canadian Sum -
niers were getting 'omewhat cooler
while the good old Canadian Winters,
with stow from November to April,
bad absolutely and unconditionally
retired from active service.

It is conceded by ev.'n its opponents.
that TIIK SIGNAL has been a good
representative local paper during every
stay of its existences, and today it is
larger and stronger and Iwtt.r then
ever before. A. a county journal it
has only one equal and no superior in
the Huron Tract, and in circulation
and general patronage rivals the hest
,4 the provincial weeklies.
The po..ition which it occupies has
not Bern attained without arduous
labor and a heavy expenditure of
thought and eai•ital, but the fact that
Ow circulation never reached a higher
water mark than it does today, and
the further fact that never at any pre

tising patronage bestowed upon THE

In addition to the departure of the
