Captain Mayne Reid.

OF Captain Mayne Reid boyhood we
hear little, except that his father, a
Presbyterian minister, designed him for
the pulpit.
The clerical profession was not to his
taste, and at the age Of twenty he left
his tutors and his tasks, to cross the
sea.
Landing in New Orleans, he began
career of adventure in the wilds Of
America. He made two excursions up
the Red River, and ascending the
Missouri, explored the vast prairies
which the wave of civilization had not
then reached He afterward travelled
extensively in the States, writing de-
scriptions Of his journeys for the news
paper press.
He was thus employed when, in 1915,
war between the United States and
Mexico broke out, and young Reid
threw himself ardently into the strug-
gle as q volunteer. lie greatly distin-
guished himself by his bravery at the
storming of Chapultcpec, where he re-
ceived a painful wound, from the effects
of which he frequently suffered.
The war over, Captain Reid resigned
his commission. But the spirit of adj
venture was reused in him again when
the Hungarian struggle for freedom en-
listed the sympathies of libcry-loving
people everywheroi and in lSl9 he
organized in New York body of men
to join it, He had arrived in Paris on
his way to Hungary, when news
reached him of the failure of the insur-
rcction.
Reid then retired to England and set
tied down TO literary work. and there
in his home he lived the lifo Of q quiet
country gentleman, devoting himself to
Literature and rural pursuits.--J, 4.

They do not stand back and curl their
mustaehes and eye the girls from n dis

And when they want to ask the old lady
they do not sit up half the night kicking

recently who went on such an Grand
