DISCLOSURE.
an you oblige me by putting this bill in the window Miss?" asked a pleasant-looking young woman, who often came into the shop for a loaf or a few buns.
"I daresay we can," said Kate, taking the bill and reading it. It was the announcement of a tea-meeting at a Sunday school in the neighbourhood, and Kate forthwith determined to speak to this young woman when she came in again, and ask her if there was a Bible-class there for elder girls and young women.
"Look here, Marion," she said, holding up the bill to her cousin, "I suppose I can put this into the window?"
"I suppose you can, but I shouldn't; I should throw it under the counter!" said Marion in a tone of contempt.
"But why?" asked Kate.
"Well, we can't put in all the bills that are brought, and so I never put that Sunday-school rubbish anywhere but under the counter."
