"until you spoke, but suppose it is true.

"Why, my DEAR" rejoined Mr. Sabson,
turning with an air OF annoyance, "you
do not regret that we were married do

One nf the best story telers Of our time passed
away when Mayne Reid died at his home in
England on Sunday
To Fiose who were boys twenty-five years
ago his books were full of the most delightful en-
teftainmcnt and instruction. The narrative il
self was always interesting. and mingled with il
We're lessons in natural history which were not
only accurate, bat attractive, and which served
IN many instances to arouse taste for scientific
study That has lasted through life. No better
books E,r boys ~ere ever written tfan the series
to wltish the Young voyagers," the "Bush
Boys hnd the Young Yagers" belonged
OF his stories designed for older readers the
"Rifle Hangers and the Scalp Hunters" are
most observing of mention. The fact that the
autliof Nas no carpet knight, but had himself fig.
uretl inFscenes 1t warfare and adventure quite as
thrilling as anyOf those he described, gave bis
bocl:s something of the charm for the young
that belongs to the sea tales of Marryat The
fiction l'nre the Atamp Of the writer's actual ex-
perieRcp.
In the Mexicah war Mayne Reid obtained his
military title ~ the commander Of a body of ir-
regular troops ir the service of the United States
He was a dasAtng soldier, and was severely
wonnde'if in tha assault AT Chapultepec MOI
withstaNdng his adventurous career at that pe-
ri9d, and subsequently in many different parts Of
the sorid, his writings are characterized by the
mssi wholesome spirit, and inculcate purity and
reftisutkf no less ahan manliness T-ss
A nutnber sf the books for boys are worthy Of
Republication inthe old form in which they were
first familiar 10 as, and which was far superior
to t1se gttlse they have assumed OF late years. Il

The question of chief Importance to
most people in these overwrought, wake
full days and nights is how to get good
sleep enough. DR.. Corning drops few
simple hints which may be of value. In
the first place, people should have regu-
lar time for going to sleep, and it should
be as soon as can we'll be after sunset
People who sleep at any time, according
to convenience, get less benefit from their
sleep than others getting sleep becomes
more difficult there is tendency to ner
vous excitabilty and arrangement; the
repair of the system does not equal the
waste. The more finely organized people
are, the greater the difficulty and the dan
ger from this cause. The first thing in
order to sleep well is to go to bed at
regular hour, and make it as early az pos
sible. The next thing is to exclude all
worry and exciting subjects of thought
from the mind some time before retiring.
The body and mind must be let down
from the high-pressure strain before going
to bed, SO that nature can assert her

FINANCE u COMMERCE.

ST.. PAUL, May 8, 1883.-There has been
no special variation in the market since
last week. Generally speaking the tone of
the market is rather more satisfactory and
trade is somewhat improved. Business
during the latter part of April and the
first of May has not been quite what it
ought to have been, nor what was expected,
and no very great improvement is looked
for now as farmers will be engaged IN
seeding for some time to come. The
spring has been so backward that 1t rem
ders the season a very short one. In fruits
trio market has been very active indeed
and dealers are having all they can attend
to. Oranges and lemons are in great de-
mand. California oranges have declined
from $3.50 per box to $500 o. $500. Bell
pears are wholly out of market. In gro
ceries, general merchandise and hardware
business has been fair, but not up to what
was anticipated. There is no change in
the condition of the market so far as cattle
are concerned. The supply is fair and
prices without change. The season for
dressed hogs is practically over and none
are being received. Very few live hogs are
coming in. Eggs during the week
have been without much change. The
receipts are firm, being fully up to all re-
quirements, still, as yet there are no accu-
mutations of stocks and the market may
be said to be steady. On the board of
trade prices run from 1919, but COM
mission men ere asking 15c right along.
In butter there is no variation. For the
poorer qualities there is no demand, while
choice is in good demand. The wheat
market has been rather quiet shading of
weaker. Receipts have been fair. Corn
has been dull and weak. Oats quiet with
but little demand. Barley dull. Hay has
been in good demand but receipts have
been pretty liberal,so that quotations have
not changed much. Provisions are
without change. Groceries are steady
with a good demand. A few changes are
noted below but they are not important.
Trade is good and is improving while col
lections are only fair. In dry goods there
is falling off in trade which commenced
about the last of April and has continued
till the present time. In hardware trade
is reported good while collections are slow.
Prices are generally firm. Blasting pow
der has been reduced to $3.50 per key.
Nails also have been reduced to $40 rate.
In drugs, paints and oils trade and col
Iections are better and both are improving.
Lumber is without change. There is
nothing new to add in regard to finances.
Money is rated pretty high and
as collections are universally. reported as
slow there seems to be no present indica-
tions of any reduction of the rate of inter
est charged by banks.
