1st- Mrs. ,Sena Ramsay, in presenting a
superb literair•y, humorous and musical
entertalintneut. Miss Washington has
made the most pronounced success both
in the United States and England and

her to the front rank of her profession

popular plays, such as "Sheriden's
School of Scandal" and Boucica.ult's

portrayed by Miss Washington.
Whether for Sir Peter, or Lady Teasel,
Lady Gay Spanker, cr Sir Harcourt,

the Exeterr amusement seekers. Mr.
Ramsay will be remembered as appear-
ing here with the Chautaqua Orchestra.
Mrs. Ramsey, too, is an artist of the
highest reputation and will doubtless
furnish a great treat to the lovers of
Music. With such eminent artists an

The annual meeting of the Stephen
& Usllorne Agrbcultnral Soeiety was
held in the 'Fawn hall, Exeter, last
Thursday, when the following officers
were ..ele4ttd e --Jelin Delbridge Pres.;
Samuel Sanders, Viee-Pres, W. Bawl-
shee, 1); McInnes, Jas Ballantyne, Wm.
Elliot, Barry ,Eriber,; Wm. White, Ed.
Christie, John Willis, harry Jones, Di-
rectors. ;il. Eacrett: `and 5, .Ifogarth
auditors, The meeting had the best of
attendance and was the mostiinteresting,
one ever held. The Soca etarv's and
Treasurer's repetrts were very flattering
to the Society indeed, considering the
great expense involved in the many
improvements in the grounds and
buildings during the past few years,
The total liabilieee et tlie•nssociation as
per report amounts to 5915,00 while
the assets amount to 52969.65 making
the society solvent to the extent' of
52054:65. '1 he Secy.'s books show that
there were 1015 entries made at the
last fall fair for which cash prizes to
the a
muur,t of 51142 were offered and
$906.20 were paid. The association
may be congratula ;ed` on having such
an efficient staffof dirators, and although
there are two changes in the " direct-
orate for 1893, none the less interest
will be taken to further the welfare o
the .association. The S. & U. Ag'l. So-
ciety
ciety have gained a reputation that is
second to none west or north of London.
The stock and agriculture exhibits are
always equal in quality to that of the'
Western Fair, London. Our Citizens
cannot do too much in assisting the
directors of this very necessary insti-
tutions in building up and making
their shows equal to any local shows
held in the Dominion. It is not only a
promotion of Agricultural interests,
but is a material benefit to our town in
many ways—it hrings farmers and
others here that no other institutions
br`ings•and is one that the townships of
Stephen & Usborne may well be proud
of.

The general verdict of the smokers
of Canada is that "Myrtle Navy" is
the finest tobacco they have eyer used.
There can be no mistake upon this
pont for it is proved by this tangible
evidence. The large demand for this
tobacco shows it to be true, and the
character of the demand gives further
proof. It has never been of the spas
modie kind, up one month and down
the next. It has been a sustained and
constantly increasing demand. The un
surpassed quality of the tobacco ac-
