The Huron Expositor, 1882-03-24, Page 9THE 1 SUPPLEMENT TO EXPOSITOR. SEAFORTH, ONTARIO, MARCH 24, 1882. Relieved at Last. The -reporter of Peck's Sun attended an agricultural exposition not long since, and here is one of the things he saw : "There was a young couple living in the city, a -high-toned couple,who were leaning towards each other and looking at everything. They are reported en- gaged to be married, and though the young man is not rich, and the girl has been accustomed, to many luxuries, it is believed they will get along nicely together. He thinks of going to kaep- ing house on a moderate scale, and was happy 'Intl he went to the exposition. First, his girl went into ecstacies over' an 8800 sealskin coat, but he dragged her away, and then she was mashed on a pair of $500 curtains, but by super- human exertion he induced her to move on, when her eye struck a $200 brass bedstead and bed, and she seemed to desire to linger there, but the brave young man gently, yet firmly steered her along the aisle to a showcase where she stopped dead still before a piece of lace. She was looking at it with open mouthed wonder when the gentleman- ly superintendent of the lace depart- ment volunteered the information that the piece of lace was valued at $750. This/broke the young man all up and he wiped e perspiration from his Dale face and p lied his girl around the fountain s ying, 'There my dear, there is somethi g we ean indulge into our heart's con ent, which conforms more to the stat: of my finances." "What i it dear ?" asked the gushing girl. "Vi7anke ha water, my sweet. It is freer than he grace of God, because no collection taken up." And the quaffed the beverage of nature, an felt that youth had been renewed. 'When Pr among the away with some youn Lady Mac him. One Mies Princess • Sensible Girl. nee Leopold virdted Ottawa, any souvenirs he carried him wore photographs of ladies who were invited to 's to luncheon to meet R., a friend of his sister the ouise, a ' very perfect and practical sort of a girl, was asked by her hostess for her photograph, and re- ceived the s ggestion to frame it in a very pretty frame, which the hostess and herself had seen a few days pre- vious in a shop. i"Indeed I'll not, Lady Mac ," replied Miss R. "If Prince Leo old wants my picture in a $7 frame he may just buy it himself." So the story goes.
