THE PROMISE OF SLEEP.

All day could not work for woe,
could not work nor rest;
The trouble drove me to and fro;
Like leaf on the storms breat,
Night came and saw my sorrow cease;
Sleep in the chamber stole;
Peace crept about my limbs, and peace
Fell on my stormy soul.
and now I think Of only this
How again may WOO
The gentle Sleep-who promises
That death is gentle, too.
-AmT Levy.

coyery was finally made that it was
caused by plants in the sitting room
that came from a malarious region. Re-
covery ensued upon their removal.

Shopping Should be Taught.

Detroit Free Press.
1t should be- recognized as part of a
girls education to shop wisely and
well. Even the most careful of moth
ers gives this important matter but
little thought. Music, art and the
languages are added to substan-
tial English education, with
perhaps few lessons in cookery thrown
in. But where is the teacher or parent
to be found who thinks it necessary to
so train a girl in the art of shopping
that she will be brought to consider
thrifty management not a bore, but
most womanly accomplishment.

SEVERAL STORIES
That Caused Some Lively Fluctuations In
the New York Stock Market The
Majority of the Features are
Now FractIonaIly Higher,

NEW YORK, February 4-The stock
market to-day was active, irregular and for
some time feverish, but the general drift of
prices was downward in the forenoon and
upward later in the day, with the result of
leaving the great majority list fractionally
higher than last evening. There was a
variety of news this morning, which had a
tendency to affect values, but the most in
portant at the opening was story that a
large syndicate had purchased a controlling in
terest in Reading and proposed to oust the
present management. This caused liberal buy
ing by the shorts, and Reading showed some
of its Old-time activity and strength in the first
hour and its price was forced above 40 kand
held there for the remainder of the day.
The same influence, however, was a depress-
ing one in Jersey Central, as the arrangeme
according to the story, we're to be abrogated
and that stock fell 81 per cent, rallying only
portion Of the loss. Rock Island was another
stock which was sharply advanced in the fore
noon, but the effect of the morning rumors
and yarns from Chicago, which included
report that Chairman Faithorn. was that
MidgelY, Walker and Finley had been unable
to agree upon new agreement, and that other
roads beside the Northwestern Pacific would
withdraw from the association on February IL.
This caused the bears to put their machinery
TO work again, and Rock Island soon lost its
and the others followed them. 1t
spread over the rest Oh the HSL. however, an
official denial by President Cable of certain ru-
mors in regard to the Rock Island and the
denial of the morning reports in regard to the
of the chairmen mentioned,
started a covering of the shorts, and a sharp re-
covery took place on the granger stocks and
some others. The short interest is again very
large, and IL the rumors of 4 combination to ad-
vance Rio Grande and Lackawanna terminally
higher prices is true, the shorts in those shares
will be forced to the wall The brokers gener-
orally reported small offerings of the stocks
this afternoon, and the advances were made on
small purchases, nothing like the animation of
the first hour being seen at any subsequent
period. The trusts were inclined TO weakness
to-day, and lead declined stubbornly and rallied
fully. Sugar was weak in the last part of the
day, with indications of inside selling. The an
that Burlington had increased its
quarterly dividend from l to IL per cent was
also material factor in the rise. and Burling-
ton kept pace with Rock Island in the upward
movement There was 6o set back, and the
market closed quiet, but firm, and generally at
the best prices
