It reads like this : "Choice, a [campar. choicer; superl. cboicbbt.] 1. Worthy of being chosen or preferred ; select; superior; precious." If there is any sinister meaning to the word, as intimated, it must be a localisin eonfined to the locality inhabited by the Sentinel's editor. Business men who have found it convenient to use govermnent stamped envelopes will note that as soon as the present contract for printing expires the government will retire from the field as a competitor of the printer in printing the return card. And a recent ruling by the department will hold letters without return instructions for thirty days. X(iv is the time to order, before the rush cotnmencee.

One of our exchauges calis attention to the fact that the following is the latest out on Maiy's little lamb: "Mary had a little lamb; that time has passed away. No lamb could follow up the pace that Mary sets to-day. For now she ridea the air-shod wheel, withskirts too short by half; no Iambkin shares lier airy flight but you can see her calf.' 31. J.

A gentleman remarked a few days siuce. : "Well I hope the county fair will be a suecess this year, I missed it so inuch last year. The fair lias a tendeney to bring people together, and we meet oíd friends that we hardly ever see except on such occasions. I shall do all I can to help it along." That is the way everybody ought to feel. If people íelt that way, and acted according to their feelings, we would have a fair here that would make the county famous all over the country. Just try and help the authorities along a little. I'ut your shoulder to tlie wheel and push. Prepare mi exhibit of some kind and get your neighbor to do the same. In the notice oi the amount netted the V. M. ('. A. by the recent excursión to Detroit, spoken of in last week's Courier, a misconstruction of thesentence "(The profit to the Association ought to have been more than that)" has been made by the committee. The sentence ought to have read (The M. C. R. R. Co. made too much and the Y. M. CA. too little). The Association boys did all the work, run all the riaks, and only netted about 20 cents off of each passenger who went. The E. E. Co. received 65 cents for each passenger, and netted 50 cents off of each one, if we are informed right. Both the work sad the profit ought to have been more equally divided.
