The London Spectator supplies the following remarkable example of thrift in a working man. The man is now thirty-fivQi years of age. He has never earned more than 35s or 26s a week, but has accumulated savings to the amount of £360, and this though he has had no property of any kind left him or given him, and though, through a piece of pure misfortune and not by bis own fault, he early in life lost over £SO. The man in question is no miser, and, though careful, has always allowed himself such reasonable recreatioh as a bicycle, and, still more, has managed to buy for himself a small library of books. What makes the case more remarkable is the fact that he is a widower with young children to provide for. “A bird is known.by its tune and so is a man by his reputation.” Mr O. B. Gibbons, Mar ton, claims to have the reputation of manufacturing the best cordials and aerated waters on the Coast. Orders solicited for the Christmas season, and punctually attended to.*
