Searo. ;hi OCTOBER 9, 1896. . .., ..„ • ites4 This,-ItWin he to Your' _ , Advantage __...r._ In order to encourage neW subscribers, • .and to save the expense of agent's commis- eions, we have decided" to give THE EXPOS- ITOR to New Subseribers from NOW to the. -.pest of January, 1898, for the small sum of One Dollar. Or we -will give THE Exr0SITO1 and Weekly Globe, to new sub- scribers from now until the First of January, 1898, for the very small stun of one Dollar and Fifty Cents. We thus offer the best local paper in °aerie and the best city weekly in Canada for less than the' Tries of one good paper for a Year. . This is really hard tirnee 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 sereure you THE Exrosrron from no until the First of January, 1898, and if this is not enough, put in fifty cents more and you will get the Weekly Globe thrawn in for the same time. We have still a few en our lists who have 'evidently forgotten that the price of THE EXPOSITOR is $1.50 a year when not paid in advance, or who really desire to be taxed the long price. To all such we would say, that on account of the hard Urines, we will give them one more cha4ce. If they will send us Two Dollars at once, we will ,give them credit for the past year and for the coming year, thus giving them 'advan- tage of the advance pay price. This very liberal offer will not hold good ! for long, so those desiring to take advantage of it had letter not delay. But those who are still in arrears and who do not take advantage of thiseeffer, will most positively be charged the credit price of one dollar and fifty cents for this present year, and if they are they must blame themselves awl net, us, as we offer them a 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 who have paid us punct- nally in advance and who are in the habit of -doing so, we return our sincerend heartfelt , s. i thanks. It is these who have elped ' us to snake THE EXPOSITOR what it We ap- precia.te that patronage and shall do ,all in our power to deserve it and t give them more than value for their money. We would ask all our old and - valued friends throughout the county t'fo show thi liberal offer which we make to new subscrib- ers, at the top of this article, to any of their :neighbors who do not now ..sUbscribe for THE EXPOSIToR, and to use their influence with them to indace them to'Iecome sub- scribers. We have obtained 1 many new : -subscribers in this way in the past, and we ask our friend3 to favor us again. It wil- greatly help us and Will give them the con sciousnese of:knowing that they are doing a good act. McLEAN BROTHERS, . Publishers. Eunica's Sampler. Theie was a time -just how Icing ago it was y ur grandma, perhaps, can tell you - when very little girl who went to school had I sone ien.eealework, just as the had lessen in reading and spelling. iss White's school all the girls es ho were t n years aid, or more than ten, were worki g samplers ; so one morning -the very orning- that she was ten years old - little Jennie Gray came promptly to school with a square of home-made linen and a box of colo ed silks. The e Was certainly one happy child in the ro ns when Jennie began in the upper left ha d corner slowly and carefully to ineke he letter A. And just as surely there was one most unhap y child there, too, for Jennie's sister Fatale sat in a -corner crying becalm she was on y nine, and *a whole yam: lay, be- tween icr and the beginning of a sampler. Nex morning bath Miss White and Jen- nie w re greatly eurprised when Eunice took fr in her pocket a piece of _linen finer than J nnie's and not very evenly cut. T is is for me, a sampler, said she, "and 'in to use out of Jemaie's silks." Miss White hesitated a little, , but meas - lured ti e linen, pseed the edges, and sheaved JP,urdce how to begin a row of faneyetitches. Whei the girls were going home at night luniceT said, sulkily : u needn't tell about my sampler." " AS if I wanted to,' said Jennie, hold- ing her head very high. "Though if me - thee gave you the linen I don't, see what you're afraid of." As the spring devs grew lengee and warmer the work on the sampler 'progressed but slowly. The small fingers were moist, and the silk split and knotted like very bad silk, indeed. At last, there cente a hot June day which bath girls remembered to the end of the 80 years and more that they lived. Jennie had finiehed the alphabet, but Eunice was struggling with the letter S, and a meat unruly 8 she round it. It was but hall done when the sehool closed, and she rolled up her work. The girds found an unusual beetle in the kitchen at home, for the minister and his wife had come to stay to tea. It Was a great honor co entertain the minister and his wife, and all the Children knew there woutr be strawberry preserves and pound cake for tee, Cloud4 had been gathering in• the west, and just as the minister finished Saying his tylnd eiuryloww. grace, there came a low roll of Usually •Jeneas and Eunice trembled' at the approach of a thundcr-shower, but ob- r serving - thitt tee minister quietly broke his bread and tasted his preserves as if ' nothing were the matter, they did the same. time eupper :was over, flashes of lightniee and =the:, of thunder followed each other almost without, pause, and the water ran in rivulets down the country " We cannot allow yon to rzo out to- night," said Mr. Gray to the Minister and Itis wife. " You must spend the night hdeecreidle'd Atonsdta7 the. rain' kept failing they Then Aire. (any celled Eunice to go into the front room with her to put, fresh 6heets c'cl- the bed.

I must go back to The Parlor." tut".al}oofat.aleEspuartiirc.e ! She stood still, the pie- , " &snide Rebecce," said Mrs. Gray, t' y, has the lightning taken away what wits you had ?" and brushing Eunice aside she went over to the old ;mahogany Children Cry for y chest of drawers, which was an heir and took out the sheets herself - • She spread the first one on the bed, Eunice, with trembling fingers, tucked one aide; But she felt faint as her nap took the second [sheet and spread it out, there was a large square hole in it., Mrs. Gray lonked from the muti_ sheet te the guilty face on the other sid the bed. " &mice," she said -sternly, " who cat that sheet ?" " 1 -wanted -a sampler," sobbed E'uniee. "The sheets your grandmother Cray wove withiber own hands and gave me when I was married," groaned Mrs. Gray. THE loom tar. Crook butter, C Procter & Son. Bu4- . ter in roll,C'Proctor & Sons.

Now, get one of the common sheets for this bed." Then Mrs. Gray returned to the minister and his wife in the parlor, and Eunice went miserably to bed. !Eunice never cared to work another sampler, for when she had picked out all t e tight little stitches .she had made, and h! d hem -stitched the patch of . linen 'into the sheet, she felt that she had had a liberal education in needlework. 1 -Hester P.

The statis- tically minded individual .was sure to start on bicycles sooner or later, and now we have some of his figures. A. cycling journal estimates that there are at least 10, 000,000 of cycles in use in the various countries of the world. On a fine holiday it is fair to assume that quite half that number of cyclists will mount their machines and go for a spin Of 20 miles. The 5,000,000 cyclists con- sequently traverse a total distance of 100,000,000 of miles -more' than 4,000 times round the world -.-4n '0110 day! The two wheels of the machine make about 1,200 revolutions per mile; conse- quently the 10,000,000 wheels have put in a total of 240,000,000,000 revolu- tious.-London Tit -Bits, BOTH HANDS FREE.

A NEW IDEA IN UMBDELLIS. the same tins° keeps the umbrella open and in position is a device just patented by a New Jersey. genius. This attachment, virbich weighs hut 3:4 ounces, it is claimed will be a boon to ladies who have shopping to do in stormy weather and who have their- hands fully occupied in caring for their numerous bundles. Postmen eats° furd it diflicult to successfully handle an open umbrella and deliver or eollect mail at the same time and drivers who have no shelter from Snow or rain may also derive benefit from this unique device. - • The support consists of a light wire framewerk which is held in position by two straps, one of which passes about the body like a belt and the other over the shoulder. Attached to the shoulder strap is a spring franiework of wire, . which clamps about the handle of the umbrella 1, and holds it in planes keeping it open over , the wearer' a head. A spring which can be easily forced open by the thumb releases the umbrella when it is no).required for -use, and the holder can be unbuckled and carried in the pocket without inconvenience. The holder will fit any umbrellad of ordinary size and ca,n be worn either outside or inside the st[orm coat or sack. • G. L. B. A Man Said This.
