ITS VERA WEEL.
It's vert wee1, throughout the day;
When taken up wi' work or play,
To think a man can live alway
Wi'oot a wifey.
But its anither thing at night
To sit alone by candle light
Or gang to rest when sharp winds bite,
Wi'oot a wifey.
It's vera weal when olaee are new,
Ta think they'll always be just so,
And look ae well as they do noo,
Wi'oot a wifey.
Bob when the holes begin to show,
The stitches rip, the buttons go,
What in the world's a man to do
Wi'oot a wifey.
It's vera weal when akies are olear,
When frien'e are true and lassies dear,
To think yell gang through life, nae
fear,
Wi'oot a wifey.
Bat clouds will oome, the skies athwart,
Lassies will marry, frien's maun part ;
What then can cheer your very heart 7
A dear wee wifey.
It's vers weel when young and hale,
But when you're auld, and crazed, and
frail,
And your blithe spirits 'gin to fail,
Hell want a wifey.
But mayhap then the lassies dear
Will treat your offers with a sneer ;
Because you're oranky, gray and sare ;
Ye'Il get nae wifey.
Then haste, haste, ye silly loon ;
Rise up and seek about the loon,.
And get heaven's greatest earthly boon,
A wee bit wifey.
THE OLD FASHIONED LATJND-
BESS.
How dear to my eight are the shirts of
my past days,
When mem'ry recalls them so perfect
and fair,
That never went through any steam
laundry fast waye,
But hung bleaching and drying in
purely fresh air,
The edges unfrayed, as they danced in
the daylight,
The buttonholes fraotureleee, free from
all rent,
The tubs with the bubbles presenting a
gay eight,
And e'en the about lauudrese that over
them bent—
The old fashioned laundress, the home -
keeping lauodraee,
The singing old laundress that over
them bent.
The old fashioned laundress was surely a
treasure,
John Chinaman then was in distant
Cathay,
And dragging maohinee used no shirt, at
their pleasure,
And ohemioale then ate no linen away.
And when, with her strong arm she
gently had wrung them,
We knew that the shirts needed no
foreign scent—
The old falhioned laundress, the home -
keeping laundries,
The singing old laundress that over
them bent.
Then our shirts took a year and s day in
their -wearing,
The bosoms ne'er oraoked like a stiff,
brittle board,,
And we put them on safe without fear of
tearing,
And dung forth her praises in lofty ac-
cord.
Sbo no'er disappointed is whitenoes or
luster,
Nor oaesed us in "case words" °lir
feelings to vent,
And we gave her the beet words our
brain pan could mpsier
And said Haat from paradise sure she
was sent—
The old fashioned laundress, the homy/ -
keeping laundress,
The singing old laundress that over
them bent.
BLANKET STREET.
0 oome with me, baby, to Blagksb Street,
"Bis a famous plane, dear, for tired feet ;
1Jp' Stairway Hill, across Landing Ridge,
Past Banister Lane, and then Kissing
Bridge,
Where somebody always you're euro to
sleet.
Over the bridges and at last we are there,
Right in the middle of Little Orib
Square ;
The street fe as white se the driven anew,
Bub warm like the blossom -tide spow,
You know—
Warm to toes that are soft and pink and
bare.
And speaking of tope, 'tie in Blanket
Street,
That the little pigs so often meet,
And the littlest always goes squeak,
squeak, squeak,
Though the weather is never cold and
bleak—
For tie always Summer in Blanket
Street. t,
And the yellow bird talks ae wellassings,
And the bumblebee home but never
• stings,
And the lave lamps burn lilts atare all
night ;
0 oome, and be sure to listen right,
For the Blanket Street birds say wonder.

'elle President's Private Life.
The following is a fair idea of the many
inoidentala that come free to aPreeideot
Every bit of linen, bedding, towels and
anoh things are furniehsd. He ie shaved
by the White House barber. Hie table
ie spread with the finest, daintiest dam-
ask, Bev with the most exquisite ohioa,
and bountifully supplied with flowers
from the White House coneervatoriee.
If he sends a telegram, it is done from an
instrument in the White House, for
which the Government pays. His
stationery, postage, ebo., Dost him no-
thing. Should he desire a game of bit.
Herds, there is a beautiful table at band ;
or if he wants to take a drive, his stables,
which the Government pays the rent for
and takes care of, are amply equipped,
When he enters his business office, a
man is stationed at the door to open and
close it; and a private secretary, to
whom the Government pays a salary of
25,000 a year,, assists biro with his oor-
respondenee. The services of a type-
writer are also furnished. He is pro.
tented from the curious by a number of
private watchmen. Should he want a
cruise, a magnificent steamship from the
navy is planed et his disposal.
There are many other things that coat
him nothing, such as the culinary ar-
rangements, hie steward, who does the
marketing, the many fancy delicacies
Bent him by enterprising firma. This, by
the way, is a sort of nuisance, for it
seems to be the desire of every manufao-
borer of some new eatable or drinkable to
get it into the White House. Things of
value that find their way there are never
accepted.

ing the disagreeable weather the fair sex
turned out in great numbers to eee which

The baby ebow at the Fair created
considerable interest. Robs. >itoAlpine,

of judging the little tots. There were
three entries. The first prize was
awarded to Lillian Beryl Pilton, the
daughter of the Bee editor. The second

Hamilton, of Henfryn.

. Plums for the Public.
In order to encourage .new subseribsrs,
and to save the expense of agent's com-
missions:, we have decided to give Pm!
Pose to New Subscribers from Now to the
First of January, 1898, for the small, gum
of ONE DOLL R. Or we will give THE
Poe'r and Weekly Globe to New Subsorib,
ere from new.entil the First of January,
1898, for the small sum of ONE DOLLAR
AND FIFTY CENTS. We thus offer
the best local paper in Ontario and the
beat oily weekly in Canada for leas than
the price of one good paper for a year.
This is really bard times offer. It is
cheaper than wheat at 50 cents a bushel,
or oats at 10 cents. Do not delay, if you
desire either or both the papers ; send in
your order at once. Remember that a
one dollar bill will secure you THE POSIT
from now until the First of Jannary,1808,
and if this is not enough, put • in fifty
eente more and yop will get the Weekly
Globe thrown in for the same time.
We have still a few on our lista wbo
have evidently forgotten that the price of
THE POST is 01,60 a year when nob paid
in advance, or who really desire to be
taxed the long price. To all euoh we
would say, that on account of the bard
times, we will give them ONE MORE
CHANGE. If they will Bend us Two
Dollars AT ONCE, we will give them
credit for the past year and for the com-
ing year, thus giving them advantage of
the advance pay price. This very liberal
offer will not hold good for long, so those
desiring to take advantage of it had better
not delay. But those who are still in ar-
rears end who do not take advantage of
this offer, will most positively be charged
the credit price of one dollar and fifty
dente for this present year, and if they
are they must blame themselves and not
us, as we offer them 8 good chance and a
fair warning.
Those who owe for longer than this
year, and we are glad to say there are not
many, will have their papers stopped at
the end of the year and their accounts
placed in court for collection. WE
MEAN WHAT WE SAY.
To the thousands wbo have paid us
punctually in advanoe and wbo 'are in the
habit of doing so, we return our sinoere
and heartfelt thanks. It is those wbo
have helped us to make Tun Poax what it
ie. We appreciate that patronage and
shall do all in our power to deserve it and
to give them more than value for their
money.
We would ask all our old and valued
friends throughout the county to ,bow
the liberal offer which we make to new
enbeoribere, at the top of this article, to
any of their neighbors wbo do not now
subscribe for Tan PosT, and to use their
influence with them to induce them to
become eabsoribere. We have obtained
many new eubsoribere in this way in the
past, and we ask our friends to favor us
again. It will greatly help us and will
give them the consciousness of knowing
that they are doing a good act.
