To Our Readers.
Recently we placed a number of
names in the hands of the Canadian

are owing us for hack subscriptions.
These names include subscribers in
United ratites, Northwest, Ontario (ex-
cept vest l,y post•offices). As We wish
to save expense we will leave this list
open so as the people in this locality
can settle et the office instead of hav-
ing extra fees with the agency. All
subset ipt ion money can be forwarded
to the .\di, rate office as well as to the
collect ton aget.ey. We hope our friends
will itttend to this at once and get a
receipt showing they are paid a year

To place your umbrella in a rack in-
dicates that it is about to change own-
ers; an umbrella carried over a wo-
man, the man getting nothing but the
drippings of the rain, signifies court-
ship; when the man has the umbrella
and the woman the drippings, it indi-
cates marriage; to carry it at an eagle
under the arm signifies that an eye is
to be lost by the man who follows you;
to put ft rotten umbrella by the side of
a silk one means "exchange is no rob-
bery;" to lend an umbrella may be
interpreted, "I am a fool;" to carry an
umbrella just high enough to tear out
men's eyes and knock off men's hats
signifies, "I an a woman."
On Thursday afternoon last the
furniture warerooms of Messrs. Rowe
& Atkinson narrowly escaped destruc-
tion by flre. A pot of glue was placed
on a coal oil stove which in some way
allowed the oil to flow down onto the
floor where some shavings and other
combustibles were scattered. The fire
apparently followed the oil down and
soon the contents of the work shop
were in a blaze. Mr. Howe was in the
front shop and noticing the smoke
quickly gave the alarm. A number of
men, who were employed construct-
ing the house adjoining went to Mr.
Rowe's assistance with pails of water
and soon the fire was under control;
not, however, until several chairs
which had been just shipped in
were damaged. 1n the meantime the
fire alarm bad been sounded, and the
engine taken half -way to the scene of
the fire, when word was given that it
had been extinguished. The firemen
took advantage of the opportunity to
have it practice.
