HE SEES YOU!

[To The Editor Stratford Post.] Sir, —Perhaps this may catch the eye of the misguided woman who deliberately steals from our door way. i am, with your permission, taking this method of dealing with her in preference to bringing a - case before the 43.-VI., at the local Coui’thouse. She knows she lias already got away with two little boy’s jersey suits, with turbans to match. I will not, at this time, mention the colors. xV jersey and cap without the pants, and a few pair of boys’ stockings have gone to the same household. lam giving these particulars so that she may know that we know of her pilfering, I should sav that whenever she puts one of these suits on her son, she will see in her mind’s eye a broad the insignia of a position in H-M. gaol, the place where she is travelling towards. She’ll have no pleasure in seeing the little chap wearing them, for her conscience will trouble her every time, at least it ought to. If she proposes making a present of these things to some chubby little fellow, let her pause. I would, sit, say to the woman who is -thus dishonestly behaving; “Mow listen: You may escape the ; watchful eye of Sergeant McNeely, who is on your track; but you cannot get away from your conscience, your silent Court of Justice, Judge and Jury. He sees all you do. Some day your record will appear. Then again, old Jeremiah, the wise, asks you two pointed questions: ‘What will you say when He shall punish you?’ ‘What will vou do in the end?’ ”

1 thank you very much, Mr Editor, for the privilege of saying these things. I believe that both you and I are doing her a kindness by telling her of her wrong-doing.—l am, etc., ' R. H. ROBINSON.
