The Spanish swindler has begun
working again. His game, a few years
ago, was to send letters from Spain to
wealthy Americans, claiming that he
knew where hidden treasurers was bur.
ied in this country, and asking for
money to pay his expenses to America
He is supposed to have cheated some
people. After being exposed he re
mained quiescent for some time. Now
the game is being renewed. Don't

The Best Result.
Every ingredient employed in pro
clueing Hood's Sarsaparilla is strictly
pure, and is the best of its kind it is
possible to buy. All the roots and herbs
are carefully selected, personally exam
ined, and only the best retained. So
that from the time of purchase until
Hood's Sarsaparilla is prepared, every-
thing is carefully.: watched with a view
to attaining the best result. Why
don't you try it?
The question as to whether or not a
Canadian team will go to Bisley in
June is in doubt. The authorities of
the Dominion Rifle Association are, of
course, ready and willing to send a

that the annual competitions will take
place this year,. The first meeting at
Birley was a iinanialfailure. The Na•

Now a newspaper, in one aspect, is.
something like a hotel table. It pre-
sents to its readers literary viands and
views from many different writers on
many different subjects, to suit many
different persons of many different.
tastes. There is something for the old
and the young; for ministers and lay-
men, for parents and children. for the
practical and devotional; and in short,
for "all sorts and conditions of men" -
and women too. If now, one of these
classes of persons objected to articles,
suited for any of the other classes, and
rejects a newspaper on that account, he
is just as unreasonable in this, as if he
refused to take his dinner at a hotel
table because he dislikes some articles
of food which others enjoy.

Obituary.
.Again we are called upon to record
the death of one of Exeter's fair dauglt
teras, in the person of Elizabeth Ann,
daughter of Mr. HenyLambrool:,a,ed
15 years and 8 months. Deceased had
been ailing for some time with rheum-
atism,whic.h finally terminated in drop -
soy. ..The
ropsey...The funeral took place on Tues-
day afternoon at two o'clock. The re-
mains were carried by the pallbearers,
from her fathers residence, to the Triv-
itt Memorial Church, of which she was
member, when the Rey. S. P. Robinson
performed the last sad rites: After' oc-
cupying the spice of about one hour,
the funeral again reformed and pro-
ceeded to the Exeter cemetery. The
attendance at the church was large,
while the number of vehicles was not
so large as it would have been had the
weather been fine. She will be missed
not only in the home, but in the church
and Sunday School, and by all who
have had thepleasureof her acquaint-
ance. The pall bearers for the occasion
were selected from the choir:, of which
she was a member. We unite with the
many friends in mingling. with feelings
of deep regret for the loss sustained iu
the home where she will be missed.

to be unlucky, for no.matter how fast
he rode the fox always kept just out of

doubled and redoubled his track. At

of the satisfaction he would get, But,
alas, they struck 'a herd of hogs, and
just as Martin was preparing to "close
in," the fox sprang on the back of a
long-legged porker—one of the kind
that can outrun a race horse, The hog
raised his snout, gave a frightened
grunt, and away he flew. Martie stop•

got away the faster he seemed to go.

COUNTESS stove are creating a sensation. For the
first time in many yearn there is a coal stove that is on every
tongue. Manufacturers, travelling men, stove dealers, farm-
ers and, in fact, every person interested in stoves are talking
about the �'

Why is this?
Because the ART COUNTESS is daring in its original-
ity. It leaps to the front with its wonderful improvements.
No other stove has anything like it. New from top to toe
Brilliant from urnto base. Beautiful in its effect under fire.
Radiant on the parlor floor, and eloquent in its hot air con.
