WITH twelve saloons in Richmond the

averaged per day for each saloon S35. 90

day and counting 3l3 days (this leaves out
Sundays when saloons are supposed to

1t IS generally acknowledged even by the
saloon men that the amount taken in by
them in the year would reach upwards
of $50, 10000 but we are figuring on

WHO THE ABLuENosEs" ARE
Explanation That Possibly May End
Z MIsconceptIon That Has Been
Widespread.

Lots Of you folks in the States, =
said Thomas F. Mccartney Of st.
John, N. B.. the other day, "call every
body from the maritime provinces
'bluenoses.' That's not 1t at all. It's
only the Nova Scotians that we call
SO. And IT'S not because the people
there have blue noses, either.
Il have met people here who really
thought that folks down east were SO
called because their noses were al
ways blue on account of the cold, raw
climate they suppose prevails there.
"The fact is the term 'bluenoses'
was first given to the inhabitants Of
the CORVALLIS valley, who were the
original raisers OF a potato called the
'bluenose' from its blush skin. This
potato was shipped to the states in
large quantities, and the name Of the
potato became the name Of the people
who raised It."
