If an old legendcounts for any- thing, Clinton has six weeks of stiff winter weather Sather yet to coe Sun- day- day was :Candlemas Dzy, when, ac- cording to legend, the bear crawls out of his winter quarters. Then if he can see his shadow be crawls back again and winter lasts six weeks. If he can't see his shadow he stays out, experiencing an early spring. The bear must have seen his shadow Sunday for it was .i bright day, just the kind that the legend says means alate spring. The much -abused coal man rubbed his hands together and chuckled. The head of the household, who has to foot the coal bills, could see no sense in going to church, 'when he could ease?' ,,his feelings much better b td a Y sermg.

The annual convention of the Ontario' •Branch of the Dominion Alliance will be held in 'Massey Hall Toronto on 'Wednesday and Thursday Feb, 26th and 27th 1913. The Central Information Office of the 'Canadian Liberal party at Ottawa are prepared to send a picture of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, size 17x22 to any address in Canada on receipt of 15 cents, Mr• Farmer if you have any stray- ed cattle let The New Era locate them for you, The law provides that they should be advertised for three times in the local newspaper before advertising them in the Canadian Gazette, In these days 'when newspaper advertisements are considered in a certain sense a of the news, of his business every week in the advertising columns of a first-class local newspaper has an immense advantage over others.
