The youth went away, and the

by robbers. One fellow asked the
boy what he had, and he answered
with candor that surprised his
questioner
"Forty dinars are sowed up in my

The robber laughed, thinking the
boy TESTED. Another asked him the
same question and received'the same
answer. AT last the chief called him
and asked him what he had. The
boy replied:
II have told two of your people
already that | have forty dinars sew

Duluth Herald: The trade report

Duluth Herald: The trade report
of Canada for last year shows that
her dealings with the United States
are heavier than with the mother
country. Canada sold to the United
States in 1888 merchandise to the
value of $42, 572,O65, and to Great
Britain s42,O94,9S4, showing an
excess Of sales to the United States
of s5OO,O00. The imports Of the
United States were S4S,481, S4S,
100000, greater than from Great
Britain. The volume Of trade with
Great Britain-imports and exports
was smaller in 1883 than in any year
since the formation of the Canadian
confederation Gin 1857, while the
transactions with the United States
were larger than in any preceding
year, except in 1882 and 1873 : One
half the exports Of Canada Of lumber
and other products are disposed of in
the United States, and three-fourths
of the minerals, two-thirds Of the
agricultural products, nearly one-halt
of her fish, 40 per cent of. her manu-
featured articles, and practically all
of the miscellaneous products reach
the same market. Business is a tie
that binds countries today closer than
conquest and colonization with no
home representation to speak Of.
