SHE OUTWITTED TnEM.-During the
late electionin West Huron, rather an
amusing incident occurred. An aged
aentlemanon'the 14th concession of
Hallett;° resides with his_ioon-in-law
and daughter. The old gentleman has
been a life long Reformer. but his Aon-
in-law teas strong a Conservative. The
infirmities of age and the inclemency of
the weatheri were too ..much for the
aged relative, in•theleetimation of hie
son- in-lawso he .proposed teat neither
would go the oil,; which proposal was
readily agreed to by his aged friend.
His 'neighbor, cf� the same political
faith, had proposed a fine plan to out-
wit the old.nan; duty calla the: son-in-
law to pay this neighbor a visit. Pen
fails . to describe the exulting joy
beaming'on their countenancee,as they'
start for the polling booth. To deceive
an old man is a prime factor in their
political creed, These actione have been
closely 'watched by' . the wife, whose.
suspicion is aroused. She harnesses the•
horse and, with hoc aged fatber;etarts
for the poll' another way, a' i ging at
the same time as her husband and
hie friend.,, A blinding snow storm..
