THP NEW COUPLE.
She was new and constructed on the
lateet modern plan,
But she lost her heart, like others, and
of course, 'twae lost to man ;
So at last the two were married, and they
started married life,
As they thought, equipped and ready,
well prepared for any strife,
She was posted on hie business quite as
thoroughly as he ;
She bad studied all the details, and, as
any one could see,
Sbe could run his shop or office, and it
also seemed quite clear
She oould act as Ms bookkeeper or aould
serve as his cashier.
Sbe could sell goods on commission, or
could buy on thirty days;
She was sharper than moat merchants in
all proper business ways ;
She mold "take" from>his dictation, and
diebate to others, too ;
There was nothing 'round the office that
she really couldn't do.
So they thought they were well armored
for a life of great success,
But the outoome of their trial was a
failure more or less ;
They are doomed to boarding houses, and
regretfully they roam,
For while they both can run the office,
neither one can make a home.

may read will its least have a clearer idea
of what this part of the world is like

Wheat growing provinces, though wheat
growing here le really only in an incl.

other of the Northern provinces, sugar
cane is grown to a ooneiderable extent,
and the business of vine growing is also
becoming an important one, but these
industries, like wheat growing and other
agriculture, are shill overshadowed by the
business of pasturing flocks and herds.

Saxon point of view they are a bad lot -
flighty, without honor, without morals,
and praebioally without religion. On the
other hand they are bright, clever, good
conversationalists, polite and generally
impnisivaly generous. But they are a
degenerate and rapidly degenerating

bulk of the business in the hands of

not care to oast in their lot for better or

whole European vote, even if oast enlid,
would avail little towards bringing about
better government: The only feasible
way of upsetting a government in this
country is by a revolution. Consequent-

almost always one just beginning or just

they happen, to be in the neighborhood,

The many virtues of Dr. Williams'
Pick Pills For Pale People have so often
been published in the columns of this
paper, that they are widely known to
the residents of Norfolk county, and it is
as widely conceded that they have
brought joy into more than one house-
hold, and their merits aro spoken of only
yin words of praise. In this instance the
facts are brought directly home to the
residents of Simone, a gentleman who is
glad to testify to the benefit he bas re-
ceived from the use of these pills being a
resident of this town. Wm. Elwood, sr.,
a resident of Simone for about two years,
and for years it resident of Fort Erie, a
carpenter by trade, ie loud in his praise
of the benefits he derived from the use of
the Pills. In an interview with Mr. El-

that eight years ago be was atbaoked with
